Pokemon Sapphire Walkthrough Part 33: Gym Leader Norman

This is part 33 of my ongoing walkthrough for Pokemon Sapphire.

In this video, we battle the fifth gym leader Norman.

Slaking Lv. 28
-Faint Attack
-Yawn
-Slack Off
-Facade

Vigoroth Lv. 30
-Slash
-Faint Attack
-Fury Swipes
-Facade

Slaking Lv. 31
-Focus Punch
-Yawn
-Slack Off
-Facade

If you dont approach this battle correctly, youre in for a nightmare. My advice is to power your Pokemon up while facing the first Slaking. Stat boosting moves work great, and X items work wonders. Heres how the X item strategy works.

1) Use X defends for the first 3-6 turns
2) Use X Attack/X Special for 2-6 turns
3) Destroy everything!!!

This isnt the only way to beat Norman, its just the most convenient if you have under leveled Pokemon. If you have high leveled evolved Pokemon, you can probably just approach this battle regularly and be fine.

Any steel/rock type will work great in this battle. If you have something like a Skarmory, send it out. Slaking cant touch rock and steel types and you will have no problems at all.

After defeating Norman you will receive the Balance Badge and TM 42 (Facade)

After the battle head over to Wallys House and you can get HM 03 (Surf)

I will be recording more so stay tuned and subscribe!

Give your Hariyama a Chesto Berry to hold before you fight Norman. So that if he uses Yawn, you'll just wake up. :)
