New player looking for early game tips! (Possible spoilers)

Hi everyone!

I'm new to this, and apparently not the best at Pokémon, cause I started to find it very hard very fast. >.>

I chose Torchic as my starter and later obtained an Ekans, Rattata, and Pari.... electric squirrel. Those three aren't exactly long term team member material in such a hard game, so could anyone give me some tips to help me find some Pokémon who are? Thanks a ton!

Well you get Mime Jr. early on, like in the beginning. He can be useful once it learns mimic and evolves. Also, you can get a biberal, to level 15 and trade it to get an 2abra. You could get a Crobat. Just get a level 2 zubat and make sure it does not die, and once it evolves to golbat, check the friendship and do the saloon thing and level up! so Level 23 Crobat? MAgby. Garados? Electrike?These are a few early game ones.

Yup its a Magikarp, but its costly.@_@ Lets see, Trubbish is also good, helped me out against the 2nd leader & by the time your Torchic evolves you'll be ready for 2nd gym.=P As for the EXP Share, its an ID lottery prize iirc, but that should be available after the 1st gym.

I second Trubbish. It may look useless, but Acid Spray is extremely useful due to its secondary -2 Sp. Def effect. On top of that, Trubbish can learn Toxic Spikes which is also really useful in battle.

This x10000. A weird and creepy as I found Trubbish, his toxic spikes are just...epic. It was definitely a game changer for me.

You don't have to join Team Aqua to get Sharpedo, also Team Magma is the only way to get Chinchou for the moment. Although you might need the good rod to fish for Carvanah which is available later on, haven't tried for it with the old rod. Anyways if theres any pokemon I reccomend, its Crobat its great for most of the gyms except for the ice and psychic. (This of course didn't prevent my Crobat from getting a critical on Acrobatics and putting that annoying Walrein down)

Okay, I'll find that Trubbish! Thanks for the tips, everyone. =)

make sure it's ability is STENCH not STICKY HOLD, if it has stichy hold it gets weak armour when it evolves which makes it hard to use, i had to ditch mine because of this don't make my mistake.

Oh and everybody seems to use gardevoir, crobat, and scraggy since they are pretty strong (magnezone used to be a part of this group but now you can't evolve it until you complete the side quest in ep 10)

you can get an electrike in rainny days next to the 1st gym, i cough it in the begging of my game and hadnt change it in any battle :), you also can get a vulpix in the saloon if you show a pokemon with a good relationship, i remove mine from my team because his ability affected in a negative way my other pokemons
