imo pinsir is probably one of the best stabless mons in gen 3, since it literally learns no stab moves by levelup, has swords dance, and an absolutely monstrous attack stat, and not that bad of a tm learnset either too bad you didnt use him tho lmao

A week ago, I might have disagreed. But I’m using Pinsir in my current run, and he is really awesome. He’s way faster than I thought, and his defense is pretty good too. Tbh, I’ve always kinda hated him because he’s not scyther, and I grew up with Red and then Fire red. So I had a huge bias that I’m only now realizing was completely misplaced. Pinsir would have been very helpful in this run

South America in the pokeworld? Well, to be fair, this game was like the first Final Fantasy. Game Freak was not expecting it to blow up like it did, so...they had no worry about mixing real life places in it. Hell, originally you were supposed to fight the pokemon yourself before catching them. it's why so many sprites show whips and bug nets and what not. When the game took off they started making equivalents (America being Unova, Kalos being France, Sun and Moon Hawaii, etc)

I just recently completed my first hardcore nuzlocke of leaf green, I got lucky to get and catch a Nidoran in the safari zone. Nidoking is a great pokemon for a stabless run imo. It gets a ton of tms, and you can't even give it a good poison move pre e4 anyway. You can also use it as a special attacker, and you don't need to use a ground type move necessarily to make it good. In my run I did use earthquake with it once in the e4, but I used a physical Nidoking to sweep the poison trainer with shadow ball
