Catching a wild Abra in Pok\u00e9mon Blue<\/em> can be one of the most frustrating and time consuming things to do in the game, but that feeling when you finally manage to succeed makes it totally worth it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The sleepy psychic pok\u00e9mon does not make it into everyone\u2019s roster, but he\u2019s a worthy addition to the database. Read on to find out how to catch Abra in Pok\u00e9mon Blue<\/em> (NOTE: The same guide applies to Pok\u00e9mon Red<\/em>, too).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Abra is found on Route 24 and 25 in Pok\u00e9mon Blue<\/em>, which is located just outside of Cerulean City.\u00a0Simply head north from Cerulean City and follow the path.\u00a0<\/p>\n

head-pass-these-people-and-turn-left-4223197 Head past these people and turn left<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll walk past a number of Cerulean citizens on this path, continue ahead and turn left at the top of the path.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll then see a patch of grass across the river parallel to the road you have just taken. This is where you\u2019ll find Abra. It may take a few turns to eventually find one, but with a bit of persistence a wild Abra should soon turn up. It\u2019s likely that you\u2019ll first encounter Caterpies, Bellsprouts, Metapods, and Pidgeys.<\/p>\n

To catch Abra in Pok\u00e9mon Blue<\/em> you\u2019ll have to exercise a lot of patience. It can take a long time. Not only stumbling upon a wild Abra in the grass, but also getting one to stick around long enough to catch it before it teleports away.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The best way to catch an Abra is to put it to sleep and launch pokeballs at it until you eventually succeed in capturing it. Sleep powder works well here.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re travelling without pok\u00e9mon with the ability to induce sleep it\u2019s still possible to catch Abra, but you\u2019ll need even more patience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In this instance simply attack Abra once to drain its health. More often than not, Abra will teleport away as soon as it is hit. On the occasion that Abra sticks around, though, throw a pokeball forward and pray for the best \u2013 eventually, you\u2019ll catch Abra!<\/p>\n

catching-abra-4120389 Catching Abra<\/p>\n

In Pok\u00e9mon Blue<\/em>,Red<\/em>, and Yellow<\/em>, Abra can evolve into Kadabra starting from level 16. Kadabra is a Psychic type pok\u00e9mon that learns some powerful attacks as it levels up such as Psybeam (LV 27), Psychic (LV 38), and Reflect (LV 42).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Training your Abra to evolve into a Kadabra is definitely worth it as Kadabra is lightyears ahead of Abra in all ways and, despite still having fairly low Attack and Defense stats, it is a great pok\u00e9mon to start fights with due to its Speed. Having a Psychic type pok\u00e9mon in your team is always a good idea, and Kadabra has the very useful ability to confuse opponents, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In Pok\u00e9mon Blue, Red,<\/em> and Yellow<\/em>, evolving Kadabra into Alakazam requires a trading partner. As soon as you trade a Kadabra with a friend, it will evolve into an Alakazam, giving you one of the most powerful Psychic type Pok\u00e9mon in the whole game. If you have Pok\u00e9mon Fire Red<\/em>, you can stop Kadabra from trade-evolving with an Everstone.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re playing on an emulator that doesn\u2019t allow trading, follow this evolving trade-evolved pok\u00e9mon guide here.\u00a0<\/p>\n
