Teams with {{p|Charmander}} may have some trouble here, since {{type|Fire}}s can't do much damage against Rock-types. Trainers with Charmander would be well-advised to bring a {{p|Mankey}} from {{rt|22|Kanto}} or {{p|Butterfree}} with {{m|Confusion}}, since {{type|Fighting}} moves are super-effective against the Rock-type and Brock's Pokémon have poor Special Defenses. Teaching {{m|Metal Claw}} to Charmander can help, but try not to be too dependent on it, especially since the {{p|Sandshrew}} that the Gym Trainer has is a Ground type, which is not weak to {{type|Fighting}} or {{type|Steel}}, and Ground is super-effective against Fire. Bring a few [[Potion]]s, and enter the first Gym. If possible, try to use special attacks like {{m|Bubble}}, {{m|Vine Whip}}, or {{m|Confusion}} instead of physical attacks, as Brock's {{p|Geodude}} and {{p|Onix}} have very high {{Stat|Defense}} stats and very low {{Stat|Special Defense}} stats. | ||

The fish itself isn't a great {{type|Water}} choice, since it can only {{m|splash}} around until level 15, but with enough training it will evolve into {{p|Gyarados}} at level 20 (with much better stats and moves) which can help with the upcoming Gym match in Cerulean City. It's a Trainer's choice whether to fork over the money for the fish or not, since they are found almost everywhere with the Old Rod later on. Heal up and head into [[Mt. Moon]]. | ||
