Which Pokemon should I teach Body Slam in Yellow?

1 minute read

I’m playing Pokemon Yellow and came and am not sure about who out of Rhydon, Hitmonlee, and Tauros should get Body Slam. I hear all of them benefit from getting paralysis on an opponent, but while I think the speed lowering would be nice for Rhydon, I think it’s too slow to use the paralysis against faster mons. Meanwhile, Tauros is also quite fast and would already probably be outspeeding it’s opponent, And Hitmonlee hits a decent speed tier so a random paralysis speed drop seems to help it out the most, but i’m considering dropping Hitmonlee in favor of other mons.

Tauros. Tauros has the worst move pool out of all three of those Pokemon, so you should give Body Slam to Tauros.

Tauros:-Body Slam (TM)-Strength (HM)-Rest (TM)-Whatever you want.

Rhydon: (This is if Tauros has Body Slam)-Earthquake (TM)-Submission/Seismic Toss (TM)-Rock Slide (TM)-Double Edge (TM)

Hitmonlee: (This is if Tauros has Body Slam)-Jump Kick-Hi Jump Kick-Mega Kick (TM)-Meditate

I hope this helps you with your Yellow journey! Also, don’t use Hitmonlee on a Ghost type.
