Hey!
I just got Skitty (yes, it is weak) and plan on training it.. Right now I am not sure whether to train it up onto Lv.49, so it learns Play Rough, or to evolve earlier so it's stats won't be so low. I mean, pre-evolutions are always weaker then the evolved Pokemon, right?
What about learning Sucker Punch by breeding? Replacing Double-Edge with Play Rough? I just don't know, man.
