Why is Sabrina such shit? Was playing Yellow and goddamn, she's

Because her party is higher leveled than it should be and she's using the most overpowered type in gen 1 while using Pokemon that unevolved could easily shit on final stages?

>>28979969
>harder than the next three Gyms
But she's the 6th gym

>>28979956
Her pokémon have low defense. If anything, you should resort to attacks that involve the attack stat as opposed to the special one. A Jolteon with Pin Missile destroys the Alakazam evolution line.

>>28979956
Anon I literally beat her with a Pikachu and Charizard spamming mega punch. Step it up

>>28979992
>This nigga didnt fight her then Koga

>>28979992
She's 5th
>>28980019
levels?????
>>28980006
Noted, I put Double-Edge on my Alakazam and I still get OHK'd by her Kadabra

>>28980068
It's because Alakazam has in special what he lacks in attack. You chose the wrong pokémon to teach it something physical.

She is piss easy because her pokemon use shit moves

Gen I yellow is the easiest game in the entire series. Even easier than gen VI

>>28980109
More difficult? All gyms that can be fought in a different order have pokémon of about the same levels. You're talking out of your ass.

The chances her pokemon hit you with an offensive move are lower than scald not causing burn when yoused by the enemy

>>28980068
About 10ish levels below. Abra is free so send in your weakest, try and hit Kadabra hard and fast and if that doesn't work sleep/leech seed is your friend. Alakazam is easily the hardest, I can't remember exactly what I did but I think it involved Para+Double Team and than spammed quick attack or Seeds+Sleep/Para and tanked.

I fought her 6th if that helps

You can fight a lot of gym leaders in different orders, but the game has an order it suggests

>>28980164
First off, Abra has 0 offensive moves IIRC. It just spams Flash until it dies. Second, Psychic is ALWAYS used on the 2nd or 3rd turn for me, and it OHKs everything but my Alakazam.

>>28979956
because you're bad.

Use slowbro or Starmie. They resist her attacks and can hit back with powerful stab surf.

skip her. Take out koga first.

What team did you run, OP? I had:
Gyarados L38
Aerodactyl L39
Seadra L38
Dragonair L38
Charizard L38
Onix L38

>Gyarados OHKOs Kadabra with Bodyslam
>Gyarados OHKOs Mr.Mime with Bodyslam
>Switch to Charizard on Venomoth (Battle Style: Set)
>Use Ember
>Take a Psybeam
>Use Sword's Dance
>Take a Poison Powder
>2HKO with a second Ember
>Alakazam
>Get outsped and take a Psybeam
>OHKO with Earthquake

The game literally gives you a level 30 tank with rest AND amnesia, just max out amnesia on abra and throw double edge until everything else dies
>"but anon, snorlax will miss"
Use rest and try again, you can 2HKO everything with double edge

Shit nigga, what are you doing?

I'd say you're just too low leveled. Why dont you take a crack at beating everything on the route to Cinnebar, catching Uno and Dos, and exploring thier locations a lot and fighting whatever you encounter there?

Could've used Aerodactyl to possibly set up some Agilities on Abra and then 2HKO Kadabra and atleast take half off of Alakazam.

Forgetting that crits in Gen 1 are speed based and these being likely with a bunch of Agilities up, Gyarados and Charizard can both take a Psychic. A Body Slam/Dragon Rage from Gyara and a Slash/EQ from Zard wouldve done it.

>>28983042
I'm pretty sure increasing the speed stage of your pokemon has no effect on the crit chance. It's just based on their base speed.

If you want to try a really, and I mean really, over the top playthrough, you could repel trick on seafoam islands to get that nasty level 37 slowbro. At level 44 it learns Amnesia. Just give it surf and amnesia and it will beat sabrina without any trouble whatsoever.

But desu slowbro is very overpowered. Almost beats the elite four by itself without needing to heal in its low 50s. So if you don't want a pokemon that strong on your team thats fine too.

>>28983220
Well, my strat there works without crits. It just works way, way easier with crits because they would OHKO.

Anyway, you might as well just grind at that point. I can just barely do it at +10 underleveled. I'm prety sure I could easily do it with everyone at 45. At that point, Dragonair lives the Psychic, allowing it to T-Wave and in the immortal words of Batman "It's over".

>they all just spam teleport!
>you can get the eevee in celadon evolve to jolteon and pin missile alakazam ez

It's so easy to spot the idiots who never played yellow and just want to talk shit.

You really dont know how to play these games. Amazing.

>>28983669
Unless you use very specific pokemon to win her (which you were complaining before) there's no way you beaten Sabrina without grinding and you know it. The level curve after Erika is designed for you to grind or explore other places. It's a jump from lvl30 pokemon (which is around your own team lvl) to two lvl50 pokemon that are faster than anything you can have and can oneshot even pokemon that are not weak to their attack if you were not lucky with the stats

I don't know why you are trying to prove you're so tuff on a cantonese tapestry board, but people here played pokemon and can smell your bullshit, sorry.

>speedrunner exploiting the x-accuracy bug
What were you trying to prove?

>>28983684
If you just beat every trainer and every random encounter you get along the way you can get through Pokemon games without grinding. These games are designed for you to do this.

>>28983733
>or explore other places
Exactly. The moment you beat Koga, the entire map save for Victory Road opens up for you to explore and let you gain levels.

>>28983936
Anon, if you ignore the natural progression of the game to go fight trainers and random encounters elsewhere so you can come back stronger, you're grinding

Do you also say you don't grind in FRLG just because you abuse the Vs Seeker instead of walking around grass fighting wild pokemon?

>>28984003
>Do you also say you don't grind in FRLG just because you abuse the Vs Seeker instead of walking around grass fighting wild pokemon?
Nope, I'd call that grinding. Progressing and exploring around the game isnt grinding.

Nice strawman though.

>>28984003
>if you ignore the natural progression of the game
it is a game where you are supposed to catch the pokemon, the game progresses by going to different areas to catch pokemon

I think I sent in a Fearow, tanked Kadabras hit, and killed it with Drill Peck.

For Alakazam I sent out my Alakazam to wear it down (I spammed Psybeam) and finished it off with Raichu (Who somehow survived the hit and defeated it with Thunder).

Was a tough fight, I think half my team fainted.

>>28984932
