Review
Paras
This is basically your average basic Pokémon. I think it is on the upper end of normal basics, so it is 1.5/5. Only remotely good paired with Parasect.
Parasect
This dude is really cool. For one, he has Fury Cutter, which is an incredibly strange move that has 3 coin flips to it. It also has mushroom drain. He saps the energy of other Pokémon using mushrooms. Yeah. 3/5.
