Pokemon Crystal offers a few new one-off Pokemon, in addition to the ones introduced in Pokemon Gold and Silver. For the most part the ways described on the page are the only way to get these Pokemon. There are, however, some exceptions. These Pokemon are handed to you by trainers, most of which are under special conditions.

The first gift Pokemon you are likely to encounter is in the form of a carrier pidgeon Spearow. The Pokemon's trainer is encountered on Route 35 and the destination is Route 31. Spearow comes holding mail which you can simply transfer to another Pokemon if you wish to keep the tiny bird Pokemon. Upon delivery of the mail, you will receive TM50 Nightmare.

#133 Eevee

Location: Goldenrod City Method:

After meeting Bill in Ecruteak City, head back to Goldenrod City and find his house. Along with getting a phone number for the PC from his sister, you can pick up an Eevee of his for free. The Eevee comes at Level 20 and is Normal-type so it'll be useful against the Ecruteak Gym when it learns Bite or Mud-Slap. Although it has five evolutions, Espeon or Umbreon are the ones you'll be most likely to see because of the rarity of evolutionary stones in these game. Both are also excellent for the Ecruteak Gym.

#147 Dratini

Location: Dragon's Den Method:

After defeating Clair and earning the badge, one of the monks will give you a test. If you answer correctly, stating that you think of Pokémon as friends, rather than tools, you will receive a special Dratini with the special move of Extremespeed. If you answer that the Pokémon are just tools, you'll receive a Dratini without Extremespeed Dratini Level 15 OT: Yours ID: Yours Hold Item: None Wrap Leer Thunder Wave Twister Dratini Level 15 OT: Yours ID: Yours Hold Item: None Wrap Thunder Wave Twister Extremespeed

#175 Togepi

Location: Violet City Method:

The egg that you had at the beginning of the game will be given back to you after beating Falkner, should you go to the Violet City Pokemon Center. The egg should hatch into Togepi by the time you reach Goldenrod City. Togepi doesn't know any attacking moves when it hatches so you'll have to baby it for a while before using it in battle. However, upon evolution it gains a formidable Special Defense and decent Special Attack stat in Togetic. Togepi Level 5 OT: Yours ID: Yours Hold Item: None Growl This Pokémon comes within an Egg and requires hatching

#213 Shuckle

Location: Cianwood City Method:

After having all of his Pokemon stolen by your rival, a guy in Cianwood City will entrust to you his Level 15 Shuckle for safekeeping. The mold Pokemon can only be acquired through Rock Smash in Cianwood City and Vermilion City otherwise so it may be worth your while to pick this one up. Although its defenses are stellar, it has pitiful Attack and Special Attack and learns very few useful moves. An interesting quirk is that giving Shuckle a Berry will create Berry Juice some time after. Mania will want his Shuckle back after you keep it for a while, though it is up to you whether you want to give it back or not. SHUCKIE Level 15 OT: MANIA ID: 00518 Hold Item: Berry Constrict Withdraw Wrap Encore

#236 Tyrogue

Location: Mt. Mortar Method:

Deep inside Mt. Mortar lies the Karate King. He will challenge you to a battle with a Level 34 Hitmonchan and Level 34 Hitmonlee. This battle is very similar to the one in Red and Blue against him so whatever tactics you used against him then will work here. Upon defeat he will give you a Level 10 Tyrogue, which can evolve into Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, or Hitmontop depending on its stats. You must have less than six Pokemon in your party to get Tyrogue will will need to climb the Waterfall in the middle Mt. Mortar entrance to meet the Karate King.
