Metapod

ReadMostly a setup turn. KO it or use it to get your answer in safely.
Kakuna

ReadAnother low-damage warm-up. Do not spend your best health here.
Scyther
Lv 16
MovesQuick AttackLeerFury Cutter
ReadThe fight. Rock is 4x, Fire/Flying are strong, and Fury Cutter snowballs if you stall.
Quick Bugsy plan:
- Best answer: Geodude or Onix from Union Cave. Rock Throw deletes Scyther.
- Cyndaquil route: Ember is good enough if you are not underleveled.
- Totodile/Chikorita route: Bring the Rock Pokemon. Do not let Scyther ramp Fury Cutter.
