Let's Play: Pokemon Yellow - Nuzlocke Run

[Salnax]

This update should be a short one. I just plan on doing a bit of training on Route 4 before I move on. So put on your favorite montage music and let's get going! Spurg learns Karate Chop, which is Normal type this gen, and Turkish learns Poison Sting. He's getting pretty powerful. Rol learns Double Team. Ioi has some trouble, so I switch him out to get partial XP for a while. Pie learns Fury Attack. And, finally, Ioi learns Bite, making him a fully functional party member.

I'm going off to the gym.

I start with just the first trainer, hoping to power up Rol. He goes down easily. As does the second one. But Rol is still only at level 17... Misty has a full-fledged Starmie at level 21 with a Bubblebeam...

I train him to level 20, at which point he learns could have learned Slam if I didn't prefer Quick Attack. Do you think this is enough to deal with Starmie?
