|[[File:Pokemon_143Snorlax.png|left]]You won't get far in Route 16 without defeating the giant, sleeping {{bp|Snorlax}} blocking your path.  To wake him up, use your flute, and then defend yourself against his grumpy level 30 Snorlax rage.

There's only one more Snorlax in the game (at [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen/Route 12-13|Route #12]]), so capture him now!  He'll learn some okay attacks at level 35 and beyond, but for now he's mainly defensive.  He has a ton of hit points, comes with Rest, and wakes from it quickly. After you defeat him, use the Item Finder in the place where he was to find the item Leftovers.

Don't let the fact that Snorlax is a Normal type from not considering it a part of your team, as it grows to be very strong, and with the addition of some TM's, it will become a force to be reckoned with. After you defeat him, use the Item Finder in the exact place where he was to find the item '''Leftovers'''.
|[[File:Pokemon_084Doduo.png|right]]The problem with Fly is that it requires a Flying-type Pokémon.  And while Fly itself is a very useful skill, you won't get any Flyer worth adding to your party (like {{bp|Aerodactyl}}) for a little while.  So you'll want to pick up a disposable flying Pokémon for the time being... Like Doduo!

Doduo, which can be caught in any version, is by no means terrible. Drill Peck is a strong attack that's great against the many Fighting-type Pokémon in this area (as well as more seldom seen Grass and Bug Pokémon), but there's not a whole lot else to get excited about. The evolved form, {{bp|Dodrio}}, which can be caught in Route #17 in Yellow only (or raised at level 31 in any version) is a fairly speedy, strong attacker that can do good damage with Normal skills like Tri Attack.
Doduo, which can be caught in any version, is by no means bad. Doduo learns mostly Flying and Normal attacks, so most of his attacks will get the STAB advantage. At level 21, Doduo learns Tri Attack, a great Normal Move that has a 20% chance of Burning, Freezing, or Paralyzing the opponent!!! Its evolved form, {{bp|Dodrio}}, is fairly speedy and a strong attacker, so it remains a good choice for your Elite Four team, especially if you don't want the hassle of raising Aerodactyl.
 
As a final note, Doduo learns Drill Peck, a very strong Flying attack that can mow down any Fighting, Grass and Bug Pokemon, at level 37. It might be worthwhile not to let Doduo evolve until after it learns this great move, as Dodrio has to wait until level 47 to learn the same.
