cp987 arbok
wanted:bite/gunk shot
got:acid/dark pulse
a nice hatchling, gets both of its garbage moves after evolving
cp692 gengar
wanted:sludge wave (pre-update specimen)
got:dark pulse
wanted capable ghost type (the only capable ghost type in gen I), what good is dark pulse when shadow claw already smites everything weak against the dark type anyway and being cheated out of the other stab move, might as well have flushed those 125 candies down the toilet (42 gastly family captures max)
ghost+dark = walled by wigglytuff family
ghost+poison = neutral against entire kanto dex
have one more pre-update gastly to evolve though, wish i knew where a gastly nest was
cp403 kingler
wanted:metal claw/x-scissor
got:mud shot/vice grip
second kingler attempt and it literally gets the worst moves in its pool
cp119 electrode
wanted:spark
got:tackle
spark is the strongest fast electric move and i want something with it for once, no it's the neutral fast move
cp316 marowak
wanted:mud slap/earthquake
got:rock smash/bone club
wanted capable specimen
cp910 jynx
wanted:frost breath/psyshock
got:pound/draining kiss
wild caught, literally came with the worst moves in the pool
cp1175 pinsir
wanted:x-scissor
got:vice grip
hatched, gets not one fucking stab move
cp724 tauros
wanted:earthquake
got:iron head
wild caught, 91.1 IV score, iron head does it little when earthquake is the superior move in terms of both damage and type coverage
cp695 snorlax
wanted:body slam or hyper beam
got:earthquake
wild caught, 86.7 IV score, no stab, gets the single dumpster bin charge move it can get out of the superior hyper beam and body slam
