Gift Pokémon

Like all Pokemon games, there are a few creatures only available as gifts from certain non-player characters. Some of these Pokemon you have to choose between, and some involve a bit of hassle.

#106 Hitmonlee / #107 Hitmonchan

Location: Saffron City

Method:
Received at the Fighting Dojo gym in Saffron City after the Karate King is defeated. Both are Fighting-types and work well on any team. Hitmonchan learns the three elemental punches as well as a few other fist-based moves, though the former are useless on a Pokemon with such a terrible Special Attack stat. Hitmonlee is more kicking oriented and will learn high risk attacks like Jump Kick that have a high base power.

#133 Eevee

Location: Celadon City

Method:
The back door of the Celadon Mansion leads to a secret entrance with several flights of stairs. At the very top there's a room where an Eevee awaits, an extremely flexible Normal-type Pokemon. What makes Eevee so special is that it can evolve into five different Pokemon: Flareon, the Fire-type, Vaporeon, the Water-type, Jolteon, the Electric-type, Espeon, the Psychic-type, and Umbreon, the Dark-type. However, only the first three can be acquired in these games.
