got a slowpoke! nicknamed it BIG HONEY after everyone's favorite NBA slowpoke, Nikola Jokic

This thing was actually quite a bear to catch - RON ARTEST the Poliwag was a godsend as it knows Hypnosis and Bubble, and a weak attack (to safely get it into the red) + sleep is basically the perfect combo.

still it broke out of 4-5 balls before submitting. And it felt like all of them shook three times before breaking for the extra annoyance.

now i'm starting to have more worthwhile mons than my team can hold. Since Crobat can learn Fly I'm thinking of putting Noctowl on the bench and running with two water types - Poliwrath and Slowbro will end up being different enough, and Slowbro has more special atk power for those Ice Punches against Lance. No Slowking bc no trade.

Yes, I'm already thinking ahead as far as Lance, and even Red. Planning on saving both the Master Ball and Earthquake TM for Snorlax - Curse/Rest/EQ/Body Slam should make the Red fight pretty manageable

Of course, this might all be moot. The Red Gyarados looms, and I repelled through Union Cave so the Lapras that appears there on Fridays is still on the table (and is a superior Ice option - learns Ice Beam through leveling and gets STAB).

sidenote there is a "no guide" variation, which given my reliance on bulbapedia might be the hardest of all for me to consider . . .
