Thread: Remembering Whitney's Miltank

I had picked up a rock/ground Pokemon in Union Cave (like Geodude) and train it up to Goldenrod (through Ilex Forest) so Whitney's Miltank is like any other Gym Leader Pokemon (tough but nothing worth crying over).

What, you guys didn't?

My brother just OHKOed Miltank in one hit with his Quilava's Fire Blast! I dunno if it was a critical hit, but it was only level 21.

PLZ. KILL MEH NOW.
I hated her Miltank in HG... ._.

Maybe I was just lucky, but I´ve beaten her on the second try. (Not because of Rollout, because of Attract in general).


Much more trouble I had with Gardenia´s Bellosom in Platinum rematches.

Gen II was a nightmare for me. No matter what I tried, it was either Rollout or Attract, and most, if not all of my team was male. But, I had little clue what I was doing back then to start with, so that probably contributed to the rage quitting and frustration. I managed to luck out the final time by burning Miltank, cutting her attack and cooking her at the same time. It was the only way I survived that one time.

Gen IV was easier, especially since she didn't spam Rollout as much, but Milk Drink and Attract still proved to be a nuisance. But this time I had a plan, and it worked well. Sent out a fast Gastly, used Curse, and just patiently wore it out. I got even luckier when I burned it twice (the first time was healed by the Lum Berry it was holding, but I burned it again one turn later), so that added insult to injury to that overgrown cow. So Gen IV was easier, especially since I actually had a plan that time around.

Cheeseburgers, anyone? Maybe some prime rib?

I just hate when that Miltank uses Rollout, ugh once it's hit a couple of times it just runs over my team if I cant beat it fast enough.

Crystal nuzlocke. Oh god...

Oh, how innocent I was. I strolled into the gym, all my pokemon 1 or 2 levels higher than the gym leader's. I thought it would be a breeze, like most gym leaders. But, alas, I was proven wrong by Roll-out.

What? I noticed after a few turns. It increases damaged every successful hit? Why that is the most absurd, terrible, annoying-

Anyway, the only reason I one the last time is because it missed, I sent out quilava, used smokescreen (ALOT), and eventually burned it. And then I realize that I had Roll-out after the battle. Wait, did Whitney give it to me?

Attract
Quilava immobilized by love
Stomp
flame wheel
milk drink
Quilava immobilizd by love

this continues for around 10 minutes befroe i get sweeped.

This was never an easy battle. Spamming Rollout and Milk Drink is a perfect strategy so the only time to get lucky is from a status ailment.
