Pokemon Farming: Totodile
September 8, 2007
Hello again, and welcome to another edition of the Saturday Farmer’s Market.
Today’s special is everyone’s favorite Johto starter of the Water variety – Totodile.![]()
I remember when I first played through Gold, my first Pokemon game, this is the starter I chose. Why? Well, mostly because Chikorita looked a little juvenile and Cyndaquil was a bit too mouse-like for my taste. If only I would have had this type of flexibility with his moves back then!
Totodile, in its final evolution has a pretty good attack stat and nothing else is absolutely horrible at all.
I had some fun with this moveset, although I didn’t get exactly what I wanted in the time I had. Here’s what we ended up with.
- Surf
- Water Pulse
- Thrash
- Aqua Tail
Surf and Water Pulse both give you good options that get a water type bonus. Thrash is the highest powered move available to him, and Aqua Tail gives a lasting healing option.
I hope you’ll enjoy my first efforts at decking out a starter!
Here are the rules:
- Leave a comment with your trainer name and friend code. I’ve had to dump most of my pal pad, so more than likely I will need your info again.
- Have something to trade. I will take anything, but I’m still filling my ‘dex so I prefer non-Sinnoh Pokemon. Also, they don’t need to be holding anything, but I will always take any item you might have to offer, especially evolution stones.
- Be in the Wifi Union Room by 1:00 pm Eastern/12:00 pm Central time on September 8, 2007
- Be waiting in Trade Mode (Invite -> Trade). I will come to you when I’m ready.
- My information is as follows:
- Trainer name – Whit
- Friend Code – 3136-3364-7333.
- Don’t run away right away if I’m not on time. I’ll be just getting back from a Dr. Appt so I may be a couple minutes late.
