  • Kanto · Map 2

Use the region and map together. These are ordinary encounter-pool entries in v3.1; run mode, encounter selection and level gates still apply. They are not encounter odds, a guaranteed catch, or a Battle Tower floor list.

How does Tentacool evolve in this game?

  1. Tentacool → Tentacruel · Level 30 or above

These are Pokelike’s ordinary level checks, not methods copied from another Pokémon game. If a listed evolution does not trigger, check for a held Eviolite, a no-evolution challenge or a run-specific evolution cap. Reaching the level does not bypass those rules.

Water does not always beat a Rock combination

Tentacool is blue, Gen 1, Basic (0), with Water / Poison typing in Pokelike’s Pokésort. Its Beats link uses Water.

Tentacool uses Water for Beats. Against Binacle, the Rock weakness and Water resistance cancel to 1×; against Baltoy, the Ground weakness remains 2×. Do not stop after checking just one defending type.

The following are practice pairs, not a daily answer. Read each pair from left to right. Both Pokémon must be on your actual board before that pair is a possible placement.

Tentacool → Binacle

Beats > · Does not work

Tentacool uses its primary type, water, against Binacle (rock / water): 1×.

Load this pair in the checker

A pair can pass one clue and fail another. Check the displayed clue and its direction, then check the other neighbour. Only the recorded primary type is used for Beats; secondary defending types still count.

Tentacool in Pokésort: colour, generation and stage

Pokelike v3.1 records Tentacool as blue, Gen 1, and Basic (0). Its puzzle types, in order, are Water / Poison. For a Beats link with Tentacool on the left, use Water against both types of the Pokémon on the right.

These are the official puzzle’s recorded facts, checked September 13, 2026. Basic is stage 0; later stages count earlier evolutions, including babies. Puzzle membership does not establish Story encounter availability.
