Pokemon Red Team (so far) by Kiweyko on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

My team in Pokemon Red. Apart from Charmeleon, I'm gonna include Pokemon in my team that I don't normally use.

I tell you, leveling up an Ekans to level 17 is PAIN!

Wrap is such an incredibly annoying move in Gen1 (especially when it hits you), and Poison Sting isn't powerful either. Fortunately, at level 17 it gets a bit easier with Bite, and later with Dig.

Oddish won't be easy either, it can only Absorb until level 24, and a couple spore moves...I think I'll wait to level it up until I got Cut.

Since there were no genders in Gen1, I check them with the help of the time capsule from Pokemon Gold. Especially helpful if you make a Living Dex in such an old game and also catch the ones with the gender traits.
