You can catch the fairly uncommon Dewgong (and its awkward unevolved form, {{bp|Seel}}) in the Seafoam Islands, but you would be better off trading for one at [[../Cinnabar Island|Cinnabar Island]]. Being traded Pokemon, the Dewgong (Yellow) or Seel (Red/Blue) available at Cinnabar will gain experience 50% faster, making it a lot better at catching up to the rest of your team. While it has a lot of competition, its boosts to Water and Ice-type attacks give it an advantage over Blastoise and Articuno, and it hits significantly harder than Cloyster as well. Access to Horn Drill secures Dewgong's place as one of the best in-game Pokemon in Red, Blue and Yellow. As mentioned though, don't catch one; go trade for one. | You can catch the fairly uncommon Dewgong (and its awkward unevolved form, {{bp|Seel}}) in the Seafoam Islands, but you would be better off trading for one at [[../Cinnabar Island|Cinnabar Island]].

If you use some Electric attacks to soften | If you use some Electric attacks to soften it up a bit, Articuno should give you much less trouble than Zapdos did. Just beware you don't overdo it — Zapdos' Thunder attack can kill this legendary bird in one shot! Once it's in the red zone, it could still take dozens of tries before Articuno goes quietly into a Poké Ball, so try to put it to Sleep or Paralyze it if possible. | ||
Like Zapdos, level 50 Ice/Flyer Articuno has strong stats and learns his best technique (Blizzard) at level 51. | Like Zapdos, level 50 Ice/Flyer Articuno has strong stats and learns his best technique (Blizzard) at level 51. | ||
