Do they have Abra's in Pokemon White/Black.
My god, I remember the annoyingess of trying to capture a pokemon who's only move it had was to teleport itself out of battle.

The whole Abra evolution line was pretty much it's own special event in Red/Blue. I mean, first you actually had to catch the thing (good luck without any Sleep moves), then you had to get it to level 16 with only Teleport as a move... and then you had to trade Kadabara to finally get to Alakazam.
It was worth it though, as Alakazam was an overpowered son of a gun in those days.

The entire Psychic element was an uber all its own in RBY, given that there were no useful Bug or Ghost attacks in that game, and the ones that owned Twin Needle or Pin Missile were usually combination Poison types, and all the ghosts were combination poison type. On the flip-side, there were good ice types with good ice-type moves, so Dragon that later became overpowered was down a few pegs
Hell, psychics being overpowered in that game has had an effect on my team-building ever since. I've always prized Dark or Ghost types that could always fight what is, in my mind, still the invincible type
