Koga's Strategy
Koga specializes in Poison-type Pokémon.
Poison types are weak against Ground types. Using Pokémon like Cubone, Nidoking, or the recently awakened and caught Snorlax will make the battle easier.
For Snorlax, use "Amnesia" to increase Special Defense, a void "Toxic" with "Rest" while asleep, and attack when the opportunity arises.
Safari Zone
After defeating Sabrina in the Saffron Gym, go to the Safari Zone and find the Treasure House in the back.

In Fuchsia City, obtain the "Good Rod" from a fisherman.
Here, you can fish for higher-level Pokémon than with the "Old Rod." If you want to create a Gyarados, be sure to get it.
Additionally, visit the observation deck on Route 15, where Oak's Aide will give you the "Exp. All."
You need to ha ve caught 50 or more Pokémon for Oak's Aide to give you the "Exp. All."
Evolve Pokémon or catch various species in the Safari Zone to meet this requirement.
