Your first major boss encounter, typically during Mission 3. Snorlax is a large Normal-type Pokémon that the Go-Rock Squad is trying to capture.
Phases & Attacks:
- Phase 1: Sleep & Stomp: Snorlax will mostly be asleep, but it will occasionally wake up to perform a powerful stomp attack, creating shockwaves that can damage your Styler.
- Phase 2: Body Slam: As its capture line weakens, Snorlax might start to roll or perform a body slam, making it harder to circle.
Weaknesses & Strategy:
- Stun with Electric: Your Partner Pokémon (Minun or Plusle) is invaluable here. Use its 'Electric' Field Move to stun Snorlax, giving you a safe window to draw multiple circles.
- Large Circles: Snorlax is big, so focus on drawing large, continuous circles around its entire body. Avoid lifting your stylus.
- Dodge Stomps: When Snorlax prepares to stomp, quickly move your stylus away from the impact zone to avoid damage.
- Replenish Energy: If your Styler energy gets low, quickly capture a nearby weaker Pokémon (like a Bidoof) to restore some energy before re-engaging Snorlax.
Reward: Completion of Mission 3, Ranger Points, and access to the next area.
