Solo Run

General Discussion

So uh. I need your help.

Please give me the worst possible Pokemon to do a solo run with, and I’ll do it.

Only exception: please god not unown. I tried. I failed spectacularly.

Anything else, I’ll give it my best shot, so do your worst.

how about a caterpie?

3

Sunkern

4

Good idea! I’ll do it sometime soon.

5

That’s what my friend said too, haha. I’ll probably do that soon.

6

Clamperl, or how about Skitty?

7

Feebas, Luvdisc, Slakoth, Whynaut, Ditto, Shuckle, Delibird.

8

unown lol

9

How about Luvdisc?

10

Or Dunsparce?

Use exeggutor

I feel the absolute worst Pokemon to use would be Shedinja. You may breeze through the game at first, until you reach a block. You’ll need a level 120 Shedinja to go through the game after that. Good luck >:3 If you don’t want to do that, I suggest Male Combee. You have no chance of evolving and you have a 4x Rock weakness. If you can survive with that, then you sir are incredible. Or try your luck with a Magikarp that only knows Splash at first. I’d love to hear your story on how you get past this one. Ditto would also be pretty neat, as you only have 20 total PP and whatever your opponent has, so you’ve gotta defeat Six Pokemon Boss Battles with only what they first send out. I’m not 100% sure, but you may be able to mega evolve if you transform into an opponent’s pokemon that has a Mega and you hold their mega stone.

Magikarp wouldn’t be as hard as it sounds. In fact I’m gonna try one out.

14

Choice band tackle

15

How would you get choice band?

16

I wouldn’t be able to get the choice band until waaayy later. And I can’t trade with anyone since it’s a solo run. :’/

17

how would you get tackle?

18

Since every solo run has to be possible, every pokemon that normally has no way to defend itself gets a new move, like magikarp getting tackle

Regarding OP, smeargle. It learns sketch every 11 levels, but it lacks the stats to make good use of any move sketched. A moody smeargle might be best.

Magikarp can learn bounce naturally. Splash, Tackle, and Bounce is it’s original moveset to my knowledge. I won every single contest spectacular using a Magikarp.
