Strategy Overview

At first sight, Hoppip seems like a highly mutated strain of Oddish. At second sight, Hoppip seems like someone just dumped a bucket of pink paint on an Oddish. At third sight, Hoppip seems like a cheap Chinese-manufactured knockoff of the Kanto Oddish. No matter how you look at it, you're not getting past the fact that Hoppip looks like Oddish, so let's move on.
