Decided to play the Original Red and started with the hardest Pokemon to start with, Charmander, as Bulbasaur can rip through the first two Gyms and Squirtle can destroy the first one. Beat Brock fairly easy with Charmeleon and about to go through Mt Moon with this team.
Magikarp lvl12
Why not? It evolves into the best non-starter Water type pokemon (IMO). The bad thing is that it starts at lvl5 and gets its first move at lvl15, Tackle then evolves 5 levels later. It took me a while to get it up 7 levels (without an Emulator that speeds up I would have given up). Gyrados will be my Water pokemon
Charmeleon lvl20
My starter. I chose him not JUST because it evolves into the ultra cool Charizard, but it was also the toughest starter at the very start. Although the option of having a Charizard in my team was a BIG factor in why I got it, plus im not really a fan of Venasaur and Gyrados is probably just as good as Blastoise in my eyes, so easy choice ftw!
Pikachu lvl14
I needed a Pokemon who would be able to fight Misty, and seen as I probably wont have evolved Magikarp by then, Pikachu was the easiest option. I shouldn't have any problems in facing Misty now.
Now that I have three Pokemon, only 3 left to choose in my mighty team. Option one will definitely be a Ground/Rock Pokemon, as I love the move Earthquake and it helps me so much. Option two will be a Grass pokemon, Dont know which one yet as I haven't thought that far ahead yet. The last option will either be the Eevee Evolution that I use or the Lapras you get for free. More than likely I will be using the Eevee though, as I already have a water pokemon so getting another is pointless. Another option is getting a Ghost/Psychic pokemon, but Im not too fond of them, plus you cant get Alakazam without trading so there goes the best Psychic pokemon in the game....
Anyway, its early hours in my Pokemon game anyway, and I hope that I can get it done sometime today or tommorrow and move onto another Pokemon game. Any ideas of a GOOD Grass pokemon?
