Pokemon Stadium Rental Run: Prime Cup (1/7)

The final Cup challenge brings us to the ultimate challenge, and ironically enough the easiest Cup IMO. But that's with Mewtwo... this time, we shall proceed without him!

Haha, I see now. Thanks for the reply! I had no idea Rock Throw had such low accuracy.

They fixed it in 2nd gen onwards (90% accuracy). If it had that, then I'd definitely go for Golem as in terms of Stadium 1 rentals, Sandslash and Golem are nearly identical in moveset and sort of close in stats.

[GlitchedLink1]

How so? Because Sandslash is quicker?

[bpblu]

Golem's and Sandslash's stats were about the same in most departments (Golem might've been a bit tougher). But strength doesn't always win wars, it's the moves.

What really made Golem suck was Rock Throw. Sure it gets STAB and beats Sandslash using Rock Slide, but with 55% accuracy? No... just, no. I hated using 70% accurate moves... 55% is just a deal-breaker.

Why didn't you pick Golem for this cup? This match probably wouldn't have been "skin of your teeth" had you used him.

Sandslash does the job better in terms of rentals. Golem sucks as a rental.

OH, yeah! Those were the songs I was talking about. 1-3 and the Final battle (or semi-final if you're doing the Master Ball). That final song is just epic, and 1-3 are just plain awesome!

[Angelostar88]

Yes, you're RIGHT!!!

Especially the music in battle round 1-3 and in the final!!!!

I love his inability to capitalize pokemon names.

Oh, that Raticate. Those Cueballs. Geez. But their dialogue is good for a laugh, at least. Ahhh, memories...heh heh.
