It is also wise to switch out, and potentially switch back in later, in the event that Togetic has been confused by Zubat's Supersonic.
Togetic, on the other hand, can defeat any of the rival's starters easily, though only if not (or no longer) under the effects of Gastly's Curse. Togepi is, however, incapable of standing up against the starter.
Rival (Azalea Town): Both Gastly and Zubat are nuked by Extrasensory no matter which form Togepi/Togetic is in, though naturally Togetic has it easier, as it suffers much less from Zubat's Bite and its flinching chance. If there is a Pokémon on the team that can inflict paralysis, use it before Togetic and the match will be set: with confusion and the high flinch rate on Togetic's side (especially in the event of Serene Grace), Scyther will be a joke. 
If it can evolve, however, it will be much more useful: Togetic can actually take up to four non-critical U-turns or Quick Attacks from Scyther, despite Technician of course, Focus Energy is an issue, which is why Togetic will need Yawn and Sweet Kiss to avoid heal-stalling with Super Potions.
Gym #2 - Bugsy (Azalea Town, Bug-type): Togepi has no business here, outside of defeating the two cocoons. Out-of-battle poisoning does not kill anymore, but a mix of confusion and poison damage might. Be wary of confusion from Zubat's Supersonic, if it hits, or possible annoying accuracy reductions from Koffing's SmokeScreen, as well as its Poison Gas. Proton (Slowpoke Well): Use Extrasensory, then profit. With an amazing special movepool, an even more amazing support movepool, as well as the stats to back up both a fully offensive and a mixed-defensive set, Togekiss is nothing like the weakling that Gotye used to know - and if given the opportunity, it will prove itself surprisingly valuable. Its base stats make it an incredibly powerful Pokémon in the early game, and a fairly useful one even after that while Togetic does lose some steam towards the late game in Johto, the availability of the Shiny Stone makes it all better right after the League, when it transforms again into the battle machine it was back when it first evolved. Being a friendship-based evolution, Togepi can be evolved into Togetic at the player's leisure it will generally evolve somewhere in the vicinities of Goldenrod naturally, in the neighbourhood of the early 20s, but with some walking around the evolution can be anticipated as much as before Bugsy's gym. Previously completely barren in movepool, this Pokémon is now all sorts of useful, and capable of making a difference starting right after hatching, with the amazing move Extrasensory. #POKEGEN HGSS UPGRADE#
When it comes to considering which Pokémon got an actual upgrade from the older games, Togetic is one of the first to raise a hand. Shiny Stones may be obtained: from Bird Keeper Josh, on Route 14, by getting his PokéGear number and receiving a call on Tuesday nights at the Pokéathlon Dome for 2,500P (after the National Dex) every day except Tuesdays and Fridays at the Bug Catching contest (after the National Dex) by winning the first prize. The hatched Togepi will always have the Egg move Extrasensory. Togepi is only available as a gift Pokémon, received from Elm's aide in Violet City as an Egg.
