    These are specific type only challenges... I did this with Spearow, Pidgey and Hoothoot.

    How It Works? I beat falkner with two pidgeys and one hoothoot, ALL in lv.8. not Works :(
    SlashTangent 19 Jun 2022 15:49
    Make sure you set your game mode to set. It's in the options.
    Zealord 19 Jun 2022 15:53
    Oooooh, its true! I forgot set mode! Thanks!

    I'm using retroarch – is there way to enable "set mode" there? I see no option that seems to correspond to that…
    SlashTangent 16 Aug 2022 21:36
    What WK Said ^ It's an option in the game.
    khardix 16 Aug 2022 21:48
    Thanks for the pointers. For those struggling like me, the actual option is called "Battle Mode"; defaults to "Shift", can be switched to "Set". TIL that is a thing 

    All of these achievements for doing gym leaders with specific teams should probably be labeled as missable, unless there's a rematch function I'm not aware of.

    Wanted to self impose same # of Pokemon rule (2 in this case) only restriction for these like you would see in Nuzlockes.

    Zubat is not great here as it doesn't learn anything other than Leech Life and Supersonic by level 9. Hoothoot is also pretty weak at this point. I opted to use Spearow and Pidgey. Spearow did most of the work with an attack stack that is actually the same as Pidgeotto.

    I win this using only one Pidgey LV 8 holding a berry and using 4 potions.
    elvisshippuuden01 12 Jul 2023 07:48
    I did the achievement, with zubat level 7 and Hoothoot level 8, I used 1x seed , and 1x attack, and 1x defense it was very easy I didn't even take another flying pokemon because it's at night

    I did it with a Lv9 Pidgey only. Gusted first Pidgey to death, Sand-attacked Pidgeotto a couple of times, then Gusted all the way to victory (had to use a couple Potions though). Not very hard.

    why all lv cap cheevos are not marked as missable?
    3 Mar 2024 14:38
    Excessiveiser set this achievement's type to Missable.
    marin 14 Mar 2024 13:18
    A good strat is to use HootHoot here and then level it to 20 for the fight vs Whitney
    ratammer 30 Mar 2024 17:40
    Just got this one with three Hoothoot and a lot of Growl!
    Houndoom 9 Aug 2024 19:49
    Only thing I can say, Sand attack for the win :D
    Dudu07 30 Sep 2024 00:52
    A melhor forma que eu fiz foi com um pidgey e um Spearow, contra o pidgey do Falkner use o peck do Spearow e quando entrar o Pidgeotto, troque para o seu pidgey e der o máximo possível de sand-attacks, depois vá batendo com guts e peck (lembre-se de equipar uma berry em ambos)

    Pidgey grew from lvl 8 to lvl 10 in-battle and the achievement still triggered
