If you started with Typhlosion, use its Flamethrower to quickly kill off Jynx and Exeggutor. Reflect will give him and Jynx a fighting chance against your strong physical moves, and make Slowbro even more tankish by doubling its already enormous defense. Exeggutor, who can attach Leech Seed to your Pokemon, carries Psychic and Reflect to be annoying. It also has Ice Punch to defeat your Ground, Dragon, Flying, and Grass-types. Jynx is similar, but has the ability to put you to sleep via Lovely Kiss instead. It can finish you off with Quick Attack, which always goes first, so don't let your HP get too low. Leading off his team is a Xatu, which can confuse you with Confuse Ray or inflict heavy damage with Psychic. Will shares two Pokemon with his predecessor, Jynx and Slowbro. Your best bet here is a Typhlosion with Flamethrower and Thunderpunch, and you'll see why below. Replacing Lorelei is the newcomer Psychic-type master Will. Like before you can't stop to heal at the Pokemon Center or buy more items at the Poke Mart so be fully prepared going in. However, given the different leveling scaling in Gold and Silver, you won't need a team around Level 50 this time - late Level 30s to Level 40s will suffice. Like in Red and Blue, you'll need a mighty team to bust through them and the Champion. Over the past three years since Red and Blue, a few members have left, joined, or switched places. The Elite Four remains mostly the same from Gold and Silver.
