How to play it
Opening. Graveler, Raticate are cheap and in the final board, so buy them early and play the Rock and Ground synergy from the start. Pick up components for the carry's items as they drop.
Leveling. Level to 8 and refresh for the Rhyhorn, Aerodactyl, Chansey, Zapdos. At level 8 the shop shows 4-costs in 26% of slots and 5-costs in 6%.
Items. Aerodactyl wants 3× Scope Lens (Protein + Carbos). Until you find it, put the same items on Raticate, which uses the same stat, and move them with a Magnet later. Tank items (Leftovers, Leftovers) go on the front-row Pokémon with the most HP.
Positioning. Rhydon, Onix, Graveler, Raticate in the front row, Aerodactyl in a back corner where fewer attacks reach it. Check the enemy board before each fight and move the carry away from their biggest area attacks.
Matchups. Strong against Electric Raichu Reroll (88%) and Psychic Kadabra (81%). Struggles against Grass Kadabra Reroll (0%) and Water Vaporeon Reroll (0%).
