Lab Man: Kabutops, Magneton, Fearow, Hitmonchan, Poliwrath, Lickitung

Team: Jolteon, Nidoking, Zapdos (A, C-Up, C-Right)

Jolteon use Thunder vs all except Magneton, can DK Lickitung to finish if possible

If Magneton shows, switch to Nidoking and EQ (C-Up, 30.7% range), then Horn Drill (C-Right) everything else

If Magenton is <11 hp after EQ, finish with Poison Sting (C-Left)

If you had a perfect Rocket fight, can kill Magneton with Nidoking and then switch back to Jolteon & Thunder the rest

Finish Lickitung with Double Kick (C-Left) if it has <51 HP

Reset if Magneton switches out to Fearow or vice versa

Cool M: Omastar, Dodrio, Tentacruel, Clefable, Zapdos, Pinsir

Team: Zapdos, Jolteon, Electrode (C-Right, A, C-Left)

Zapdos Thunder VS all (C-Up)

Zapdos use Substitute (C-Down) VS Zapdos as Thunder Wave is incoming (If broken Substitute, use again)

Reset if he leads Zapdos and you lose the 1v1

Zapdos will use Thunder Wave on your non-substitued Zapdos until you have substituted twice (assuming full hp)

Hope for no Zapdos (Thunder is 3HKO)

Swift: Tentacruel 21-25 | Clefable 19-23 | Zapdos 17-20 | Pinsir 15-18 | Omastar 6-7

If Pinsir has 9-10 HP and Jolteon is out, finish with Pin Missile (C-Down)

Double Kick: Clefable 46-56 | Omastar 34-40 | Tentacruel 12-14 | Pinsir 8-10

Zapdos Thunder is 89.7% on Omastar, Jolteon is 41% | Zapdos is 33.3/28.2% on Tentacruel/Pinsir (never Jolteon)

Sky Attack Pinsir instead of Thunder if it's last AND you can tank a Slash (67-79)

Self-Destruct: Clefable 79-94 | Zapdos 71-84 | Pinsir 62-74

Giovanni: Persian, Dugtrio, Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Rhydon, Tauros

Team: Articuno, Electrode, Vaporeon (C-Down, C-Left, B)

Articuno use Ice Beam VS all (C-Up)

If Persian/Tauros are about to kill, switch to Electrode and use Thunder/Explode depending on situation

Can tank a Slash from Persian if it used Thunderbolt on switch-in turn (Can tank anything from Tauros)

If this, Thunder before exploding

If Dugtrio shows up, switch to Electrode, then switch back to Articuno as he usually Digs

If Dugtrio last and killed Articuno, go Vaporeon and Quick Attack (C-Left) then Surf (C-Down), as it will Dig

Dugtrio does 98-116 to Articuno, can risk this range if you want to since first gym

Nidoqueen is a 58.9% to 1HKO, Nidoking is 89.7%

QA: Dugtrio 19-23 | Persian 17-20 | Nidoking 14-17 | Nidoqueen 13-16 | Tauros 12-15

Articuno's Rage (C-Down): Nidoking 9-11 | Nidoqueen 8-10

Vaporeon's Surf: Persian 81-96 | Tauros 76-90 | Nidoking & Nidoqueen 148-174

Rhydon and Dugtrio are 1HKO, Nidoking is 30.7% to 1HKO, Nidoqueen & Persian don't die without crit, Tauros is 43.5% to die to crit

Enemy Nidoking Thunder is 62-74 on Articuno

Nidoking will try to Horn Drill Vaporeon if it's sent out

~~~ Team 2: Nidoking Tentacruel Starmie Jynx Jolteon Zapdos

Judoboy: Raticate, Primeape, Machoke, Nidoking, Hitmonlee, Machamp

Team: Jynx, Starmie, Zapdos (A, C-Up, C-Right)

Jynx use Ice Punch VS Nidoking (C-Right)

Very rarely Nidoking lead will switch out, so use Psychic instead if first

Jynx use Psychic VS all others (C-Left)

Machamp, Nidoking and Ratitcate are 2HKOs (Finish off with Ice Punch)

Psychic: Slowbro, Alakazam, Poliwrath, Starmie, Jynx, Hypno

Team: Zapdos, Jolteon, Starmie (C-Right, C-Down, C-Up) (Sun Song)

Zapdos use Substitute VS Hypno (C-Down)

Zapdos use Sky Attack (C-Right) VS Alakazam

Zapdos use Thunder (C-Up) VS all others except Jynx

Zapdos use Sky Attack VS Jynx

Jynx Ice Beam damages 86-102 VS Zapdos

Ice Beam crit is 66.6% to 1HKO Zapdos

Zapdos VS Hypno: After Substitute, Sky Attack (100-118) then Thunder (74-88) to kill

Sky Attack is 87.1% VS Alakazam

Jolteon: 97.4% to OHKO Slowbro

VS Alakazam: Thunder is 59-70 (PM is 17-20 per) [DK is 14-16]

VS Hypno: Thunder is 67-79 (PM is 13-16 per) [DK is 10-14, 37/39 12+)

VS Jynx: Thunder is 79-93 (PM is 18-22 per) [DK is 38-46]

If want to play risky, can just Thunder/Sky Attack on Hypno, and switch to Jolteon if put to sleep. About as fast if Starmie is in back.

On Jolteon vs Alakazam, use Thunder turn 1 then Pin Missile (chance of para + shorter animations on Pin Missile if it kills)

Nerd: Electrode, Snorlax, Golem, Exeggutor, Muk, Cloyster

Team: Zapdos, Nidoking, Jolteon (C-Right, B, C-Down)

Zapdos use Substitute (C-Down) VS first two except Electrode

Switch to Nidoking and use Earthquake (C-Up) on Electrode, Golem tails

Stay as Zapdos on Muk tail and Thunder it till you or it dies (if you die finish with Nidoking)

If Exeggutor tail, use Sky Attack (C-Right)

This is 76.9% to 1HKO

If Zapdos died to Electrode 2nd, go Nido and Horn Drill (C-Right) until death, then Pin Missile as last resort (if time was really good)

Zapdos use Thunder VS 3rd Cloyster

If Cloyster second, Electrode can/will be in the back, so go Nidoking if Thunder missed

If certain of this, actually faster by 7 seconds to use Sky Attack and take Explosion on Purpose rather than switch. Exeggutor lead seems to do this
