  • I remember some 'mons I've used in Gold... Let's do a team with what a remember, still the below roster may not have existed as it is.

    - Slowbro
    - Gengar
    - Machamp
    - Feraligatr
    - Togetic
    - Granbull

    Edit : I played again my Red Pokemon game on my GBC.
    I found those fellows and used them for E4 again, was good :

    Spoiler:


    The fun thing with this said team is that I used to made some trades between my Silver and Blue versions so this is not the team I trained during the game, but a stack made of traded Pokemon. The actual team was dispersed between the different games, then my Silver save crashed and I sold Blue.

  • My team in Pokemon Crystal Version is shown on the Trainer Card in my signature. However, my internal save battery died and my dad made me throw away the cartridge. It's only now that I realize my team had an overwhelmingly weakness to Electric-Types.

    Problem be solved with Earthquake on Typhlosion, right?

    Internal battery issues... I know that feel.

    However, it's funny how you like Flying Pokemon ^.^

    Actually, it's not really that I like Flying-Type Pokemon but that's just how my team worked out. Happy the Togetic was on my team because my favorite move is Metronome (and he knew Flash), Paul the Xatu (in-game trade) was on my team because I kinda like Future Sight (Blast from the past!) and Hermes the Pidgeot was on my team because he knew Fly. My favorite type is actually Fire, although I try not to have favorites.

    My team in Yellow was Dewgong, Alakazam, Zapdos and Snorlax (I traded Seel and Kadabra from Crystal)
    My team in Crystal was Typhlosion, Feraligatr, Jynx (Indigo Plateau), I was training an Umbreon for the Kanto leg, unfortunately my game was erased before I could battle the champion.

    That will teach me to wait 14 years to finish a game.

    In Blue it was something like:
    Charizard w/ Swords Dance, Fire Blast, Earthquake, and Hyper Beam
    Lapras w/ Ice Beam, Body Slam, Hydro Pump, Substitute
    Dragonite
    Alakazam
    Mew (totally legit!)
    Chansey w/ Counter, Toxic, Softboiled, and something else

    Occasionally the Alakazam would get switched out for a Hitmonlee. It just looks nifty ;*)

  • Silver: Typhlosion, Gyarados, Pigeot, Ampharos, Lugia.

    I think I may have traded a Charizard from my Red save too.

    I didn't really follow a theme or anything when I built my teams for any of these games. I just picked things that I thought were strong enough to help me win battles. I also didn't use anything with an ugly back sprite, no matter how good it might have been.

    The only two Pokemon I remember from my gen 1 playthrough are Dugtrio and Nidoking. Nidoking pretty much solo'd the game by himself, and I'm sure that Dugtrio only made a cameo to spam Earthquake and fish for critical hits via Slash.

    I remember my Crystal team like the back of my hand. I had Feraligatr, Pidgeot, Jynx, Arcanine, Tauros, and Dragonite. Needless to say that I had very few problems destroying everything with this squad.

    God I replayed the hell out of both and don't have them to hand, but I think I can remember blue's:

    Blastoise, Raichu, Pidgeot, Dugtrio, Ninetails, Victreebel
    although I had a serious habit of restarting the game and playing different teams/starters... Still would if I didn't want to lose all the pokemon I've got from events.

    I certainly couldn't remember my first ever team in each game, but some Poke have become personal favorites so much that catching and using them long-term have almost become a ritual.

    Yellow: Pikachu/Jolteon, Primeape, Dugtrio, Charizard, Blastoise, interchangeable last spot

    (I also owned Red but I played it much less than Yellow because godawful sprites)

    Gold: Meganium, Raticate, Fearow, Kingler (maybe my favorite in-game Poke ever), Arcanine, Espeon/Ampharos/Raikou

    Crystal is more or less the same as above, but I also liked to use Cubone since it's available much earlier.

  • My teams dont change much between generation 1 and 2. But sometimes variations.

    Golem, Blastoise, Machamp, Nidoking, Rhydon, and Poliwrath

    The team usually has people who look like they can smash some face, ya know? :D

  • Don't remember what I used in Red other than my Blastoise, which I'm pretty sure carried me through most of the game on its own anyway.

    Yellow was Pikachu, Pidgeot, Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, and...whatever else I felt like using at the time.

    I pretty much used the exact same teams over and over in Gold and Silver, which was Meganium, Pidgeot/Noctowl (depending on whatever I felt like catching at the start of the game), Graveler (wasn't able to trade so I couldn't evolve it), Lapras, and whatever else I felt like using.

    All I had in my short lived Crystal playthrough before its battery died were Totodile, Teddiursa, and Phanpy.
