Easily obtainable Cut slave?

[dondon151]

Hello,

I'm routing a speedrun for episode 12 and I'm wondering whether there are any easily accessible event Pokemon that can learn Cut. Ideally they shouldn't require a battle and are not too far out of the way, such as Skitty or Snubbull, or are part of the main storyline, such as either the Team Magma or Team Aqua quest rewards. (Obviously, those guys can't learn Cut.)

Magus used a Bidoof for Cut in his route, but I'd rather not partake in the hassle of going through grass to find and catch one if possible.

I mostly use bidoof, he can learn 4 HMs, you can find him just outside the grand hall.

I get the feeling that this should be in the On The Hunt section, so I'll move it there.

kriketot/kricketune i think dont know if its changed

Yes, but 2 of those HMs don't exist yet, and Bibarel is the one who learns all of the HMs. Bidoof can only learn Cut. I don't want to have to hunt for a Bidoof and then go through the hassle of capturing it.

Also, what's the easiest Membership Card sticker to obtain? There used to be one that got replaced with a Smoochum egg, I think.

Kricketot doesn't learn Cut. Otherwise a good suggestion, though, since it does evolve at L10 to a Pokemon that does learn Cut.

lol hunting bidoof? There is only 2-3 other pokemon there and it is lvl 2-5 so if you just throw a pokeball it will mostly catch it even on full hp.

[dondon151]

You're not guaranteed to find one in the first encounter and you only have a 1/3 chance of catching it at full HP with a Poke Ball.

I just realized that the Glameow from the salon is a good candidate.

Panpour makes for a decent cut slave.

That is what i used, it's not a half bad mon to pick up either, especially with Hypnosis

Yeah, I think I'm going to go with that, since it can help out with the Fern, Florinia, and ZEL & Taka battles if it has a +spe nature with good speed IVs. Hypnosis is also a bit more reliable than Delcatty's Sing. It takes a slight bit more time to get, though - less than a minute or so.

you could just teach it to a regular team member (like your starter) if you don't mind loosing a moveslot much.

[Lost Lore]

The earliest obtainable ones are the Pachirisu/Panpour that are being bullied by those thugs on Opal Bridge. Both of them can learn Cut.

am I one of the few who don't like using hm slaves, I divide my hms with my pokemons,

Don't forget you can get a Litleo for a Bibarel

[ShadowDefender]

Sandshrew is one of the best hm slaves, can learn Cut, rock smash, strength, and rock climb (when it becomes needed).

[Mint_Spaghetti]

Kricketot. trust me on this one. Evolves at lvl 10. He will help you for the beginning of game (agains pulses and florinia). Learns fury cutter which destroys most things. Learns cut, strength and rock smash.
