Fixed encounter
Lugia
- Gust
- RecoverNormal
- Hydro PumpWater
- Rain DanceWater
Catch read: RecoverNormal drags the fight out; sleep/paralysis plus Heavy Balls or Ultra Balls are the plan.
Optimal call: Lugia has huge defenses and RecoverNormal, so chip slowly. A Heavy Ball works well on it because Lugia is very heavy; otherwise paralyze/sleep and grind down with weak hits + Ultra Balls. Save before the encounter — it's soft-reset friendly.
