'''''The dark, gloomy forest is very large and confusing. After you help the Apprentice, you can explore the forest to find TM 02, Headbutt, which can shake Pokémon out of trees. The girl in the guard house will give you TM 12, Sweet Scent, which can attract more Pokémon to you.''''' | '''''The dark, gloomy forest is very large and confusing.

The charcoal maker, who lives in Azalea Town's south-east, hasn't seen his apprentice since he went into the forest. You'll find him safe, but his {{bp|Farfetch'd}} is lost. Farfetch'd is in the middle of the forest, but when you approach it, it runs away. So you'll need to loop around and come at it from behind, chasing it right into the apprentice's arms! | The charcoal maker, who lives in Azalea Town's south-east, hasn't seen his apprentice since he went into the forest.

| [[File:Pokemon 043Oddish.png|left]] | | [[File:Pokemon 043Oddish.png|left]] The Oddish family has a few new tricks. One is Moonlight, a high-level move which recovers HP, but the amount changes based on the time of day. The other is {{bp|Bellossom}}, a new evolution (It's not a fourth form, but an alternative to {{bp|Vileplume}}). Some of its stats are weaker than Vileplume's, but Bellossom is now the only Oddish relative that can learn Solarbeam. Another good utility Pokémon, Oddish can be taught HMs Flash and Cut along with Sleep Powder, it can be useful while only taking up 1 slot. | ||
| [[File:Pokemon 046Paras.png|right]] Paras doesn't have any new forms, but it does have a couple of new moves, including Poison Powder, and Grass-type's new power move, Giga Drain. These round out a decent move set that includes Para's trademark "puts them to sleep 100% of the time" Spore move. It has a higher physical Attack stat compared to Special Attack and uses Slash to good effect. Too bad that Paras is still one of the slowest Pokémon in the game though. | |||

| [[File:Pokemon 048Venonat.png|left]] | | [[File:Pokemon 048Venonat.png|left]] Venonat was always an awkward mix of Bug and Poison types that got mostly Psychic attacks and wasn't powerful enough to use them effectively. And, well, that's all still true. It does learn Supersonic at level 9 and Confusion at level 17, as well as Psybeam and Psychic later on. But its Special Attack is still very weak. At least evolved form {{bp|Venomoth}} can learn Gust now at level 31 and does gain some Special Attack. | ||
| [[File:Pokemon 054Psyduck.png|right]] You can get Psyduck much earlier in Crystal than you could in Red/Blue/Yellow. Psyduck's few new moves aren't worth much, but it learns the old moves up to 20 levels earlier. | |||
Luckily, it does have some good uses, Water-type Psyduck and Golduck can learn 5 HM techniques! Surf, Waterfall, Whirlpool, Strength and Flash! | |||

| [[File:Pokemon 102Exeggcute.png|left]] | | [[File:Pokemon 102Exeggcute.png|left]] Now more than ever, evolution timing is the key for Exeggcute and {{bp|Exeggutor}}. Stick with Exeggcute if you want to learn Confustion at level 19, a few of the Powder moves and Solar Beam at level 43 which is its last learnt move. | ||
Evolve into Exeggutor early if you want to learn Stomp at level 19 and Egg Bomb at level 31 which is its last learnt move. | |||
Stick with Exeggcute if you want to learn | | [[File:Pokemon 204Pineco.png|right]] This is one enraged pine cone! Pineco and its evolved form {{bp|Forretress}} specialize in moves that do major suicide damage to opponents...and themselves! Selfdestruct, Explosion, Take Down, Double Edge, that sort of thing. It can dish out the beatings, but it won't last long. | ||
