[[BP:Brock|Brock]]'s Junior Trainer, strangely enough, uses Ground-type Pokémon, while Brock himself uses Rock/Ground dual-types. Neither has any Ground or Rock-type attacks to use, so Pokémon weak to those types can still be used.  Resistances should still be considered, however.

If you're playing Red or Blue, and you picked Bulbasaur or Squirtle, you should have an easy time of it, since both of these Pokémon can learn attacks that will eliminate these Pokémon in a couple turns (As long as Bulbasaur is Level 13.)  But if you picked Charmander, or have a Bulbasaur without Vine Whip, then you'll have to fight a longer battle (Hint: use Leech Seed, then Growl six times).  That wouldn't be a problem, but Brock's Onix has Bide.  Bide absorbs the damage Onix takes over two turns (Onix still takes the damage), and then deals it back at double damage.  This is usually enough to seriously weaken your Pokémon, if not knock it out right away.
