I understand Snorlax is a tempting choice, and it's good, but its Special stat in gen 1 was only 65, so not particularly high. That means it won't tank these special hits quite as well as you'd think but also means Psychic and Blizzard really don't deal that much damage. Pikachu is also definitely not mandatory and also just not really that good honestly. But cool video!
Really good setup! My first Yellow playthrough (that I somehow won with) was...well, let's just say I was an odd kid with odd choices... Pikachu Venusaur Charizard Blastoise Butterfree Primeape Despite what you might think, Butterfree actually helped me destroy Koga's Gym. XD
Something I find EXTREMELY overlooked in this Video is Nidoking. It is a ground type as well. And after beating brock, ESPECIALLY in yellow since it gets Double Kick way earlier than Red/Blue, you can get a Moon Stone and obtain Thrash, a move that in gen 1 lasts 3-4 turns, a great move that can easily sweep up a rocket base. A second reason to use it is Horn Drill with X Accuracy. It becomes an unmissable OHKO move, as well as getting the move Thunderbolt and having Stab Earthquake for Agatha. It alone can absolutely mop up the elite 4 with this alone. So the choice of Golem over it seems like a slap in the face to the poison type.

Caden Crawford good but mew is technically not obtained through legit matters you have to glitch but if you want to you use it go on ahead I’ve glitched a game and exploited it a bunch I don’t agree but I also don’t disagree with using it but what can I do it’s you’re team :P
thats the best starter for gen 1 for you and yes a I am saying that for the old games cuz even though he has a limited move pool crit-leaf is still op, and vaporeon is just a way better water type in my opinion
To be fair by the time you get bulbasaur in yellow you're already past the point where it's most useful. (I.e Brock and Misty) Everything afterwards that you'd use the bulbasaur line against (water/ground/rock types) can be handled just as easily by pikachu/whatever water type you have
TheDjbz I understand why they weren't added. I just commented because Venusaur is my favorite poke, so I was feeling quite salty about his absence. Not saying he should've been on the team.
Ariana Isabella it’s a shame, Venusaur is the best grass type in gen 1 that isn’t exeggutor Blastoise is massively outclassed by starmie, lapras, vaporeon, slowbro and even gyarados that has 100 special in gen 1 and Ninetales outclasses charizard with 100 special to really make those fire moves hurt
I recently caught a Tauros in the Safari Zone, taught it hyper beam, body slam, earthquake, and I forgot the last move. I ran trough Pokémon Blue. Nothing stood a chance. Tauros is ridiculous in gen 1 and often overlooked because of how bad it is nowadays
Also: Not sure why people are making a big deal about speed in this game. The purpose of these teams are for sweeping the game from Pallet Town to Pokemon League, so you'll be higher levels (and invariably faster) than opposing pokemon 90% of the time. And the one time your Golem get outsped by a Rattata isn't going to hurt.
If we're going to be completely honest the best way to beat the entire game is with just a Nido (either will do) maybe with something that's not weak to Psychic or Ice attacks for backup.
Nidoking can destroy Psychic types with STAB Earthquake since they have weak physical Defense for the most part. Exeggutor and Slowbro could be problematic though critical hits turn the tables on Slowbro's 80 base Special.
Gen 1 Crit chance is determined by how much higher your speed is over your opponent's, so naturally stacking with high speed Pokemon will give you more crits and easier battles.
Ashley Gillespie-Horne you won’t be higher levels, you’ll barely be level 45-50 because of the lack of grinding by the elite 4 and speed is very relevant given base speed determines the crit hit ratio and high crit moves like razor leaf have a perfect crit hit ratio on anything at base 70 speed or higher because of the 8 times multiplier
Ashley Gillespie-Horne in gen one the critical chance is determined by the speed stat. slash increases your chance to crit even more and combine that with the fastest pokemon in gen 1, Persian you will crit all the time
Santos Warrior Champion (now Wallace) and 8th gym leader (now Juan) are different in Emerald and you have to deal with both Aqua and Magma. I don't think there are many other changes prior to the postgame.
A feather in Dugtrio's cap versus golem - in Digglet Cave you can occasionally find Dugtrio of level30+ which is grossly beyond the lvl25ish electric types in the electric gym!
Next time, could you put all 6 Pokemon together at the end of the video just so we get a look at the final complete team? Btw love how you use the old school artwork, it's so refreshing and nostalgic to see them!
Jolteon, Dragonite, Arcanine, Gyarados, Snorlax, Exeggcutor I've done multiple playthroughs, and this team is what I always settled for. Blastoise, Venusaur and Charizard are all still in my heart, however
The fourth move I use for Alakazam is reflect to keep him from getting hit too hard with a physical attack. Use that, and pretty much all your opponent can do is hope for a crit at just the right time.
@@blakedup6190 Recovery is for the hits that were weakened by Reflect. Alakazam's defense is so weak its nice to throw a reflect up and then recover if needed. Because otherwise, you're gonna recover, and lose all you recovered with the next hit
* Clefable with Thunderbolt, Hyper Beam, Sing, and Reflect because Clefable can be obtained very early, has pretty good stats, and a massive TM access. * Nidoking with Earthquake, Thunder, Ice Beam, and Surf because, yeah, obtained early, really good stats, and great TM access. Also, Horn Attack is a solid move by learnset until other moves are obtained. * Kadabra/Alakazam with Psychic, Recover, Thunder Wave, and Reflect for reasons listed in the video. This Kadabra/Alakazam is powerful and annoying to opponents as long as Psychic is effective, which it is against 90%+ of opponents. The thing that sucks about this moveset is running out of PP in-game for Psychic, but I wouldn't want to use another move slot on any of the other damaging moves available to this pokemon. * Articuno with Blizzard, Agility, Double-Edge, and Rest because I don't mind legendaries, ridiculous stats, and a small but versatile moveset * Blastoise with Surf, Blizzard, Body Slam, and Mimic for reasons listed in the video * Pikachu with Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave, Submission, and Seismic Toss because it's Pokemon Yellow and even though you don't technically have to use Pikachu, you kind of do. The biggest reason to choose this version is because it's Gen 1 but consistent with the anime and you have a cute little pal to follow you around. Pikachu may be relatively terrible in battle, but it adds a lot to the fun factor. Also, this moveset makes Pikachu at least not totally defenseless against most foes. Obviously you'll need an HM slave or two as well, but Surf is the only great HM for battle (though Strength and Fly are not terrible). Also, I would have strongly considered Golem, Gengar, and Machamp, but I don't have a 3DS so I avoided Pokemon that needed to be traded, besides Kadabra because its Sp. Atck. and Psychic typing make it good enough without being fully evolved. Having these amazing Pokemon only be obtainable through trade was a smart move on Nintendo's part when the games were released, but sucks when that's not a viable option for you in 2018.

@@Ewremen it’s a very easy glitch, you should do it at least once just for the sake of it haha. I just did a play through for the first time with mew and it felt like fulfilling a long lost childhood dream. Just Google how to catch mew in gen 1 and you’ll find it, will need to start from the beginning though. You get a level 7 mew with a glitch involving the bridge in Cerulean city
Great video! Last move for Alakazam could be Thunderbolt. :) Also instead of Blastoise, I’d personally use Vaporeon. Also bulky and just overall a super well rounded Pokémon.
Just came here from the future to say that in yellow there is one trade evo you can use. In the underground path from route 4-5,there is a girl that will give a machoke for cubone, and it does not have an Evers tone, meaning it WILL evolve once you receive it
The best thing about Pokemon Yellow Pikachu is not only is he strong, but you can trade him to Blue and evolve him for a very high stated Riachu. #SurfingRaichu
Red and GSC work too EDIT: Or change your name with ws m, evolve Pikachu (the game will let you because it considers Pikachu foreign) and change your name back.
I like that you considered how soon you can get the Pokémon as well as how viable they were. As a suggestion for alakazam's 4th move, I'd suggest psybeam (or even confusion). Most of the routes are long with many battles. And if you wanted to go as far as ev training (for stadium), 10pp on psychic is just not enough. As for competitive, could work in synergy with double team if you can pull off the small chance of confusion
What always scared me away from using the Nidos is that it's weak to four of the strongest types in the game (Ground, Water/Ice, and, the boss type, Psychic). Also it's stats are just... okay. Certainly good enough to beat the cartridge game, but I preferred to use the likes of Golem, Alakazam, Starmie, and Exeggutor instead.

Golem's (and Graveler's) Earthquake and Rock Slide hit harder, plus it's just fun sending Graveler/Golem out before all the Lass's and Jr. Trainers and watching it devour all of their normal/flying/poison-type pokemon and coming away with hardly a scratch. I usually had to run back to Poke Center to recover it's *PP* , not it's HP, because it was so good in battles.
ruclips.net/video/bVwfu_pSdGE/видео.html Hi Guys I am an You Tuber I am making Videos of Pokemon Legends Red Gameplay So , I need support For my New You Tube Channel Can you please support me by Subscribing my CHANNEL.
Personally, I would replace Alakazam with Exeggutor, teach it psychic and mega drain, and switch Blastoise with Cloyster, gets stab on both water and ice attacks.
I doubt that. At that point pikachu only has a weak thundershock and misty's starmie can tank that. I highly recommend to grind your spearow and rattata to lvl 20 to evolve them and it will potentially sweep her team. A bit time consuming but its good in the end.
As for late gamer, I like to be diversed: 1. Gengar (Ghost) 2. Alakazam (Psychic) 3. Zapdos (Electric) 4. Motres (Fire) 5. Articuno (Ice) 6. Blastoise (Water & For surfing)
Its worth keeping for the reason that the level u get it to by the time u get the rest u need it's to high of a level to ditch as ull not have a pokemon to be able to catch at its level if u get what I mean
In my last run through Yellow, I boxed Pikachu and used Jolteon instead as it's just a better Electric type overall, plus it has access to Pin Missile and Double Kick. Previous playthroughs where I have used Pikachu out of sentimental value have meant that a Vaporeon was used (Surf, Ice Beam, Acid Armour are its main moves), otherwise my water type Pokemon has been Lapras. Access to Surf, Ice Beam & Thunder makes this a very strong member. Charizard is my favourite of the starters and it has access to Earthquake, Body Slam and Swords Dance. My grass type Pokemon has always been Vileplume because of access to Petal Dance, a highly powerful attack with the advantage of being able to switch out in Gen 1. Dodrio is (in my opinion) the best regional bird in the game with great attack and speed stats, plus access to Drill Peck and Tri Attack (Which in Gen 1 is just a very strong STAB attack). Finally, despite the lack of a decent ghost move, having Gengar/Haunter is brilliant for trolling those self-destructors, plus it gets Thunderbolt and Psychic allowing to utilise its high special stat.
And on top of that.... considering how frail Alakazam is you don't want to waste a round using Reflect. Round one: Reflect --> Enemy does only take you out half way. Second round: Psychic --> Enemy takes you out entirely So you were able to get out one Psychic. Instead you could simply use Psychic right away without sacrificing half your HP for a Reflect that does not help you surviving the second attack anyway... rather take Psybeam as the 4th attack. Simply out of convenience because Psychic does only have 10AP and a STAB Psybeam from 135 base special is still enough for almost everything weak to psychic types... Considering alakazam is your go-to sweeper in that team you want more than 10AP...
Reflect on Alakazam is actually used in competitive, with Reflect up Alakazam takes about 25% from most physical attacks, I'm looking at Tauros and Snorlax Body Slam here, and even Rhydon's STAB Earthquake (The strongest physical hit, without a huge drawback, in the game) is only about 35%. They only thing this doesn't work well on is auto crit attacks that bypass it. Hell, with Reflect up, Alakazam can survive an exploding Golem at high health.
Alex_0080 In competetive gameplay reflect is no doubt your go-to 4th move. And it does only reduce the damage by 50%, not 75% :) But apart from that, the team building here is not about competetive, but about playing the main game where you are definitly not willing to sacrifice your HP for a reflect because you do not want to run for a pokemon center after every 2 trainer battles : D
I wanted to recreate Red's team from pokemon gold/silver but I wasn't able to obtain espeon. So my final looked slighty diffrent: pikachu (of course), three Kanto starters, snorlax and lapras
@@DBZJ952TxTsavage if you played pokemon gold, silver, or crystal you would know that his original team and that he had an Espeon instead of a Lapras. But technically that was his team after the 2nd gen games. So you are technically right.
Yeah, let's be redundant and tack on low accuracy STAB moves instead of increasing a Pokémons move diversity or giving them more strategic options like Double Team. You seem like the kind of person who thinks that if a move doesn't do damage, heal yourself, or put the enemy to sleep, it's bad.
It would be interesting to see what team you would pick to fight another Pokémon Yellow player who had this team. Example: What team would you use to fight a friend or sibling that had a Pokémon Yellow save file with this team.
When I played Yellow on VC, it took all of my willpower to not dump Pikachu for Jolteon. Aside from my Pikachu, I also had Ninetales, Gyarados, and Hypno, because I liked the idea of using Pokemon with good Special stats that got screwed by having it turn into Special Defense. My fifth and final member was Venusaur.
Good video, but sadly as you said yourself Pokemon like Alakazam and Golem can be pretty hard to come by nowdays when you play Yellow on the old GB cardtrige like me and have no way of trading these Pokemon with anyone. From own experience I can say that great alternatives for these Pokemon are Rhydon and Hypno, who really surprised me with their gen 1 strenght in my playthrough
You should do a video about when to evolve certain pokemon. Pokemon that evolve via trade or stone and what level you should evolve them at based on moves they can learn and the differences between different generations.
Since he dosent offer an alternative for alakazam i recommend mew if you can get one. It can learn any mive in the game and it passes for a psychic type
It's like $8 for a GBC trading cable you can use with a gameboy advance SP. A gameboy advance SP, the AGS-001 model never costs more than $50. Pick a couple up, or an extra one to trade with the one you already have. You can find the gen 1 cartridges on ebay for pretty cheap (battery may be dry, but it will still work 100% fine) ~$20. $78 total is relatively cheap all things considered. Depending on how big a collector you are of the series, this may or may not be a good investment. The prices are considerably cheap considering they stopped manufacturing the original hardware years ago and they likely won't any time soon so prices will only go up.
Alakazam's 4th move should be Psybeam to save on PP. Psychic only has 10, this will let you use it more without using ethers or running back to the pokemon center
+RockyRider25 1. Shadow Ball is a gen II move. The only ghost type move in gen I that does type damage is Lick, which is garbage and not learnt by Alakazam 2. Shadow Ball being a ghost-type move was physical in gens II and III, therefore it was very unviable choice as Alakazam has very poor attack stat
Pretty cool video! The Yellow version is a different enough experience that it does merit a separate video considering what works. Still, it's kind of upsetting that you can't get Raichu in this one.
imo i'm still switching out my Pikachu for an Electrode because even if this Pikachu is stronger I just feel better having a fully evolved (and REALLY FAST) electric type on my team. Another thing is that Blizzard might be a better option for Blastoise (unless you just like having more PP which is fair) considering it has 90% accuracy in Gen 1.
My Pokemon Yellow team: Pikachu: Because he is the starter pokemon. Charizard: Has great offensive stats and easy to obtain. Blastoise: Can learn surf, great stats and blizzard really helps against dragonite. Eggsecutor: Can double as a great grass and phycic type, fairly bulky too. Nidoking: Is bulky, amazing offensively and has one of the best move pools in the game. Dodrio: Is ok, often got replaced with my syther tho.
The thing is... You CAN put the Pikachu in the PC, and trade it with the much better electric Pokemon, Jolteon, and late game, if you really want to you can also repace that with Zapdos! Also, you could've just given Blastoise's spot with much better water Pokemon, Like Lapras, Starmie, Gyrados etc.
You know, I always thought Blue's Eevee was determined by your own Eevee when you got it. Based on what you evolved yours into, his would evolve into something else. Say you got Flareon his would be Vaporeon, you got Vaporeon his would be Jolteon, you got Jolteon, his would be Flareon. Didn't evolve? He'd have Jolteon. Never knew it was connected to battles.
I thought exactly the same. And I remember evolving Eevee to Vaporeon and Blue having Jolteon, evolving it to Flareon and Blue having Vaporeon etc. I found out about being battle dependent much later, but in my mind (=in my heart) Blue's Eevee evolves according to what you choose your Eevee to evolve.
@@AzureKyle I'll say a couple more things. I can honestly say that I never, in any of my saves, skipped the non mandatory battle, and Blue always ended with jolteon. But every time he ended up with jolteon, I had evolved eevee to vaporeon, because it was the best suited for my team (surf,ice beam). But I clearly, clear as the day, remember going for Flareon in another save, because design wise was my favorite, and Blue ending up with Vaporeon! Man, I thought I misremembered my childhood with this "depending on battles you won/lost" rhetoric. And it might be right, no doubt, but it's not the way I remember it.
I like the video and the Pokemon you picked. I just have to disagree with a couple. Golem and Alakazam are amazing picks, but I think it would have been fair to say that if they're doing a solo run with no outside help (trading) or glitches, I would go with Dugtrio instead of Golem due to Dig being a very broken TM in that generation and his speed is crazy good, and Hypno as a runner up for a solid Psychic type Pokemon. Overall great video.
@@cmart9240 No Cut or Strength for ACTUAL obstacles. Flying is a convenience. Surf is just the best Water move in the game ANYWAY. He didn't include it TO function as an HM. That's why he even said you could run Hydro Pump instead.
Here's my recommendation Pikachu Thunderbolt Thunder wave Double team Body slam Nidoking Earthquake Thrash Rock slide Bubblebeam Charizard Flamethrower Fly Dig Slash Blastoise Surf Ice beam Double edge Toxic Mr mime Psychic Sismic toss Thunderbolt Double team Snorlax Body slam Submission Fire blast Blizzard
My team: Raichu (evolved with glitches) Thunderbolt Thunder Wave Quick Attack/Double Team Body Slam Charizard Flamethrower Fly Slash Fire Spin Nidoqueen Earthquake Rock Slide Blizzard Body Slam Lapras Surf Ice Beam Confuse Ray Body Slam or Strength, because paralyzed pokemon can't be frozen Mew (if you don't want to use Mew, then choose another good physical attacker) Psychic Ice Beam Hyper Beam Dig Gengar Thunderbolt Psychic Hypnosis Mega Drain (for rock/ground pokemon)
Dude, nidoking should have blizzard instead of thrash. Thrash is nearly useless when you got earthquake. Blizzard hits grass and flying types (who resist EQ) hard
@@xyzzy-dv6te blizzard has only 70% accuracy and I don't trust moves with less than 90% accuracy I know blizzard is high in power I understand that but when it comes to moves in perfer accuracy over power
There's a way to evolve you're Pikachu in Yellow. You have to trade it to red/blue and then you can use a thunderstone and trade back. Only thing is they won't follow you around anymore, but you have a charged up Raichu
I never got the vibe with using Nidoking. I mostly use either Dugtrio or Golem, and there's no reason to have 2 Ground types. I get that you can speedrun with him but Poison is such a bad type in gen 1 imo. I also don't think he becomes a ground type until his last evolution.
I think one of the best pokemon out there is Starme because of her move set diversity. You can teach her electric moves! A water pokemon with electric moves?! Plus, she is super fast, right behind Alakazam. I can annihilate anyone with her, I usually teach her psychic, recover, thunder bolt and blizzard. Anyone who dare gets in my way will feel the wrath of my Starme!
I prefer Gengar over Alakazam. After I catch a Gastly in Lavender Town, I teach it Psychic and battle the fighting dojo in Saffron City until it evolves into Haunter. I think the Hypnosis / Dream Eater combo is more effective than Recover. Plus, it makes more sense defensively because most attacks can't hit a Ghost type.
you skip the second to last trainer in viridian forest, buy a escape rope in pewter city, do the mew glitch to that trainer ( pause right after you walk into his line of sight and use the rope) go walk towards mt moon and the dude will go tell you to challenge brock, while fighting the first dude in the gym use growl against his level 9 diglett 6 times then have him win (works best when pikachu is the only one in your party) go walk back towards viridian forest and a box of text will appear then you will be in a battle with a level one gengar, use thunder wave then keep chucking balls at him as most attacks will ko him, after that heal then encounter a low level pokemon and switch out gengar for another pokemon and beat it, this will make him level up to level 100, or watch this video for a walk through ruclips.net/video/c_p6Y-2ogR4/видео.html
Pikachu(thunderbolt, body slam, thunder, flash) Dragonite(surf, ice beam, dragon rage, thunder bolt) Charizard(flamethrower, fly, earthquake, slash) Alakazam(toxic, psybeam, psychic, recover) Gangar(hypnosis, dream eater, pyschic, mega drain) Machamp(rock slide, submission, dig, seismic toss) By the time I reached the elite four all my Pokémon were at least 62 with machamp being my weakest and pikachu being my strongest at 70. I beat them all on the first go.
lavender town as well, but only 14 caught^^ I am more of a just catch who I like guy, building the team around my favourites currently thinking about wherever to replace pikachu once I get evee and have acess to volteon
Jolteon is super good but I want to challenge myself using Pikachu as main electric type but probably I will fail... it's hard to build a team in gen 1, pkmn's movepool is garbage! ahhhhhh...
Yeah the damn movepools ... TMs are so much more valuable here. I really want to get Gengar into my team but it pretty much has THE worst learnt moves in the game.
I recently started my Yellow playthrough on the VC and I'm going to use Red's team in HGSS (Pikachu, Lapras, Snorlax and all 3 starters) just to try it out. Even though it may seem unbalanced, it should do well overall though.
I chose starmie over alakazam plus it can replace blastoise and have another team spot open. the best moveset to run on it is phychic, surf (of course), ice beam and tri attack or blizzard.

Who is ASH
MysticUmbreon the shirt looks awesome
I understand Snorlax is a tempting choice, and it's good, but its Special stat in gen 1 was only 65, so not particularly high. That means it won't tank these special hits quite as well as you'd think but also means Psychic and Blizzard really don't deal that much damage.
Pikachu is also definitely not mandatory and also just not really that good honestly. But cool video!
Pikachu
Charizard
Blastoise
Venusaur
Snorlax
Nidoking
No one’s got time for them trade evos
Zap224 Machoke can be obtained as an In game trade and then have Machamp in your team.
Really good setup! My first Yellow playthrough (that I somehow won with) was...well, let's just say I was an odd kid with odd choices...
Pikachu
Venusaur
Charizard
Blastoise
Butterfree
Primeape
Despite what you might think, Butterfree actually helped me destroy Koga's Gym. XD
Santos Warrior no one has time to wait for snorlax to attack Tauros so much faster and by that better
Zap224 what the heck almost my same team but instead of nidoking
I hav haunter (bas)due to the stupid trade evol
Zap224 That would be my ideal team. Though I would replace snorlax with Dragonite, Aerodactyl or Primape
Something I find EXTREMELY overlooked in this Video is Nidoking. It is a ground type as well. And after beating brock, ESPECIALLY in yellow since it gets Double Kick way earlier than Red/Blue, you can get a Moon Stone and obtain Thrash, a move that in gen 1 lasts 3-4 turns, a great move that can easily sweep up a rocket base. A second reason to use it is Horn Drill with X Accuracy. It becomes an unmissable OHKO move, as well as getting the move Thunderbolt and having Stab Earthquake for Agatha. It alone can absolutely mop up the elite 4 with this alone. So the choice of Golem over it seems like a slap in the face to the poison type.
Plus it basically fills the slot of both Mankey and Golem without a 4x weakness.
Golem immune to psychic no?
@ golem is a ground/rock type, it is neither resistant nor immune to psychic
never noticed before but you get the move "counter" from some random dude behind a counter lol

Cool my Yellow Team was Pikachu, Graveler, Venusaur, Charizard, Kadabra, Blastoise. Because I had no friends to trade with.
because you had friend to love with pikachu positve energy venus charizard evol thru the powers of love
Sorry I would trade
Well on a ROM you cannot trade so this team works
Same just I had Haunter instead of Graveler
My team as of right now is Pikachu, Pidgeotto, Abra, Magikarp, cleffable, and Charmeleon
Annoying when you make Best Teams for the old games and you include Trade Evolution pokemon..
how can you not trade by this point, another game boy is cheap & its easy to do on emulator w stadium
I hate that too

**all starters make the team except Venusaur** cri
thats the best starter for gen 1 for you and yes a I am saying that for the old games cuz even though he has a limited move pool crit-leaf is still op, and vaporeon is just a way better water type in my opinion
To be fair by the time you get bulbasaur in yellow you're already past the point where it's most useful. (I.e Brock and Misty)
Everything afterwards that you'd use the bulbasaur line against (water/ground/rock types) can be handled just as easily by pikachu/whatever water type you have
yeah I know that..... but what sucks more is that bulbasaur is the first starter ash gets in the anime
TheDjbz I understand why they weren't added. I just commented because Venusaur is my favorite poke, so I was feeling quite salty about his absence. Not saying he should've been on the team.
Ariana Isabella it’s a shame, Venusaur is the best grass type in gen 1 that isn’t exeggutor
Blastoise is massively outclassed by starmie, lapras, vaporeon, slowbro and even gyarados that has 100 special in gen 1 and Ninetales outclasses charizard with 100 special to really make those fire moves hurt
What about Nidoking/Nidoqueen for the ground type? Nidoran can be obtained around Mt. Moon and can fully evolve very quickly.
I use Rhydon along with giving a ground move to my Blastoise, and it crushed
Oh wow this was five years ago I'm very late haha
Mystic: Golem has more defense
Quad Weaknesses: am I a joke to you?
Yes
He obviously means the stats, not just typing
I'd replace snorlax with tauros because
It's gen 1 tauros
true, true.
I may try that I never tried him in gen 1 before simply I could never find him lol
Blake_the _batman epic crits
Greg gonzalez Tauros is just a massive monster in gen 1
I recently caught a Tauros in the Safari Zone, taught it hyper beam, body slam, earthquake, and I forgot the last move. I ran trough Pokémon Blue. Nothing stood a chance. Tauros is ridiculous in gen 1 and often overlooked because of how bad it is nowadays
Also: Not sure why people are making a big deal about speed in this game. The purpose of these teams are for sweeping the game from Pallet Town to Pokemon League, so you'll be higher levels (and invariably faster) than opposing pokemon 90% of the time. And the one time your Golem get outsped by a Rattata isn't going to hurt.
If we're going to be completely honest the best way to beat the entire game is with just a Nido (either will do) maybe with something that's not weak to Psychic or Ice attacks for backup.
Nidoking can destroy Psychic types with STAB Earthquake since they have weak physical Defense for the most part. Exeggutor and Slowbro could be problematic though critical hits turn the tables on Slowbro's 80 base Special.
Gen 1 Crit chance is determined by how much higher your speed is over your opponent's, so naturally stacking with high speed Pokemon will give you more crits and easier battles.
Ashley Gillespie-Horne you won’t be higher levels, you’ll barely be level 45-50 because of the lack of grinding by the elite 4 and speed is very relevant given base speed determines the crit hit ratio and high crit moves like razor leaf have a perfect crit hit ratio on anything at base 70 speed or higher because of the 8 times multiplier
Ashley Gillespie-Horne
in gen one the critical chance is determined by the speed stat. slash increases your chance to crit even more and combine that with the fastest pokemon in gen 1, Persian you will crit all the time
Reflect is actually pretty good on Alakazam in Gen 1. So is Thunder Wave
ALL HAIL GOD
venusaur took a critical hit
Also could you do separate best teams for Crystal emerald and platinum
Wuta LAWDOG The sequals is almost identical to their main game.
Siwwe Prequel? Same Pokemon? What are you even saying?
Siwwe Elite Four members in Platinum are way different in regard of teams and they get a buff after completing the story.
Siwwe as for Emerald idk since I never played Ruby and Sapphire
Santos Warrior Champion (now Wallace) and 8th gym leader (now Juan) are different in Emerald and you have to deal with both Aqua and Magma. I don't think there are many other changes prior to the postgame.
A feather in Dugtrio's cap versus golem - in Digglet Cave you can occasionally find Dugtrio of level30+ which is grossly beyond the lvl25ish electric types in the electric gym!
Next time, could you put all 6 Pokemon together at the end of the video just so we get a look at the final complete team?
Btw love how you use the old school artwork, it's so refreshing and nostalgic to see them!
Jolteon, Dragonite, Arcanine, Gyarados, Snorlax, Exeggcutor
I've done multiple playthroughs, and this team is what I always settled for. Blastoise, Venusaur and Charizard are all still in my heart, however
What moveset?
@@Asfgxff uhhh you level it up?
The fourth move I use for Alakazam is reflect to keep him from getting hit too hard with a physical attack. Use that, and pretty much all your opponent can do is hope for a crit at just the right time.
I was thinking Thunder Wave but that's a good idea.
thats what recovery is for......
Psychic, psybeam, thunderbolt, recovery......or replace thunderbolt with icebeam to destroy dragon pokemon
@@blakedup6190 Recovery is for the hits that were weakened by Reflect. Alakazam's defense is so weak its nice to throw a reflect up and then recover if needed. Because otherwise, you're gonna recover, and lose all you recovered with the next hit
* Clefable with Thunderbolt, Hyper Beam, Sing, and Reflect because Clefable can be obtained very early, has pretty good stats, and a massive TM access.
* Nidoking with Earthquake, Thunder, Ice Beam, and Surf because, yeah, obtained early, really good stats, and great TM access. Also, Horn Attack is a solid move by learnset until other moves are obtained.
* Kadabra/Alakazam with Psychic, Recover, Thunder Wave, and Reflect for reasons listed in the video. This Kadabra/Alakazam is powerful and annoying to opponents as long as Psychic is effective, which it is against 90%+ of opponents. The thing that sucks about this moveset is running out of PP in-game for Psychic, but I wouldn't want to use another move slot on any of the other damaging moves available to this pokemon.
* Articuno with Blizzard, Agility, Double-Edge, and Rest because I don't mind legendaries, ridiculous stats, and a small but versatile moveset
* Blastoise with Surf, Blizzard, Body Slam, and Mimic for reasons listed in the video
* Pikachu with Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave, Submission, and Seismic Toss because it's Pokemon Yellow and even though you don't technically have to use Pikachu, you kind of do. The biggest reason to choose this version is because it's Gen 1 but consistent with the anime and you have a cute little pal to follow you around. Pikachu may be relatively terrible in battle, but it adds a lot to the fun factor. Also, this moveset makes Pikachu at least not totally defenseless against most foes.
Obviously you'll need an HM slave or two as well, but Surf is the only great HM for battle (though Strength and Fly are not terrible). Also, I would have strongly considered Golem, Gengar, and Machamp, but I don't have a 3DS so I avoided Pokemon that needed to be traded, besides Kadabra because its Sp. Atck. and Psychic typing make it good enough without being fully evolved. Having these amazing Pokemon only be obtainable through trade was a smart move on Nintendo's part when the games were released, but sucks when that's not a viable option for you in 2018.
This is late, but haunter is pretty good until the late game
Starting to play through my childhood games again so love these videos.
My team used to be :
Pikachu
Nidoking
Venusaur
Charizard
Blastoise
Mew
lol same but i ended up trying to replace nidoking with dragonite lol still training it to evolve
How do you get Mew lol

Just Google how to catch mew in gen 1 and you’ll find it, will need to start from the beginning though. You get a level 7 mew with a glitch involving the bridge in Cerulean city
Great video! Last move for Alakazam could be Thunderbolt. :)
Also instead of Blastoise, I’d personally use Vaporeon. Also bulky and just overall a super well rounded Pokémon.
oh hi
Alakazam doesn't get Thunderbolt
TKnHappyNess I think he meant Thunder wave
TKnHappyNess You’re right. My bad! Always think it does.
tm? dunno im kinda dumb when it comes to psychic
Just came here from the future to say that in yellow there is one trade evo you can use. In the underground path from route 4-5,there is a girl that will give a machoke for cubone, and it does not have an Evers tone, meaning it WILL evolve once you receive it
The best thing about Pokemon Yellow Pikachu is not only is he strong, but you can trade him to Blue and evolve him for a very high stated Riachu. #SurfingRaichu
Red and GSC work too
EDIT: Or change your name with ws m, evolve Pikachu (the game will let you because it considers Pikachu foreign) and change your name back.
Snorlax should become a Child of Thanos and not be owned by a puny human!
Thanos and fat Pikachu. Not the stupid other Pikachu... Only my dad fat Pikachu

|Oh Shit!!

(FUCK) (Oh Okay) (How Do I Remove It?)
I like that you considered how soon you can get the Pokémon as well as how viable they were.
As a suggestion for alakazam's 4th move, I'd suggest psybeam (or even confusion). Most of the routes are long with many battles. And if you wanted to go as far as ev training (for stadium), 10pp on psychic is just not enough.
As for competitive, could work in synergy with double team if you can pull off the small chance of confusion
Oh the hilarious tasty fitting irony of this video with the new things going on loooool
assuming your main goal is to beat the game asap once you start a new file, Nidoran(king) is a must have
You’re right.
Queen and Clefable are good too, for such a deed.
What always scared me away from using the Nidos is that it's weak to four of the strongest types in the game (Ground, Water/Ice, and, the boss type, Psychic). Also it's stats are just... okay. Certainly good enough to beat the cartridge game, but I preferred to use the likes of Golem, Alakazam, Starmie, and Exeggutor instead.
@@Empr4evr Misty, Sabrina, and Lorelei, are the only real threats the Nidos will ever face.

Gen 1 and you didn't give Snorlax Amnesia? It DOUBLES Lax's special!
Personally, I would replace Alakazam with Exeggutor, teach it psychic and mega drain, and switch Blastoise with Cloyster, gets stab on both water and ice attacks.
"pikachu does well against mistys team"
um
i dont get it
no shit, lightning against water.....duh
however pikashit is completely useless and trash....
I doubt that. At that point pikachu only has a weak thundershock and misty's starmie can tank that. I highly recommend to grind your spearow and rattata to lvl 20 to evolve them and it will potentially sweep her team. A bit time consuming but its good in the end.
@@lucasclyde7424 you can get pikachu to 26 and get thunderbolt by that time just have to grind
@@robmalcolm8042 Wouldn't that consume way more time than grinding your spearow to lvl 20?
As for late gamer, I like to be diversed:
1. Gengar (Ghost)
2. Alakazam (Psychic)
3. Zapdos (Electric)
4. Motres (Fire)
5. Articuno (Ice)
6. Blastoise (Water & For surfing)
male Nidoran is the first pkmn you can get to stage3, since you can get a moon stone at Mt moon around the time it evolves into a Nidorino (lvl 16)
Wouldn't recommend using it against Misty, however. Because of stats in Nidorino's case, and typing in Nidoking's case.
Actually, Caterpie is.
@@mystic_ramen While true, Butterfree isn't really a strong contender for a long-term team member.
@@LittleAl016 True
Alakazam's last move should be substitute. Another one I could think of is seismic toss. You may even throw in metronome for fun.
U do realize that u can put Pikachu into the computer correct?
Its worth keeping for the reason that the level u get it to by the time u get the rest u need it's to high of a level to ditch as ull not have a pokemon to be able to catch at its level if u get what I mean
you can´t
@@davidcampos2625 yeah u can
In my last run through Yellow, I boxed Pikachu and used Jolteon instead as it's just a better Electric type overall, plus it has access to Pin Missile and Double Kick.
Previous playthroughs where I have used Pikachu out of sentimental value have meant that a Vaporeon was used (Surf, Ice Beam, Acid Armour are its main moves), otherwise my water type Pokemon has been Lapras. Access to Surf, Ice Beam & Thunder makes this a very strong member.
Charizard is my favourite of the starters and it has access to Earthquake, Body Slam and Swords Dance.
My grass type Pokemon has always been Vileplume because of access to Petal Dance, a highly powerful attack with the advantage of being able to switch out in Gen 1.
Dodrio is (in my opinion) the best regional bird in the game with great attack and speed stats, plus access to Drill Peck and Tri Attack (Which in Gen 1 is just a very strong STAB attack).
Finally, despite the lack of a decent ghost move, having Gengar/Haunter is brilliant for trolling those self-destructors, plus it gets Thunderbolt and Psychic allowing to utilise its high special stat.
imo I don't think you need a bird pokemon in Yellow since Charizard can fly.
Correct me if I'm wrong but you're not stuck with pikachu in pkmn yellow. You can put it into the pc, trade it and evolve it.
Sad Onion you can only evolve it if you trade it to another game
You're right about the other things though
Sad Onion If you do that you can’t get the other starters in yellow tho.
Yes you can, but personally I kept him as is and really didn’t struggle playing the game.
To me I hate how weak Pikachu is, so I always put him in the PC, and go with Jolteon or Zapdos for my electric Pokemon!
w0ng™ then just get them before you trade it. 😂
My team: (still kinda ok.)
Pikachu
Blastiose
Charizard
Venusaur (I’m a sucker for starters)
Alakazam
Nidoking
I used this exact team lol (except replace pika for zapdos and you have my team)
@@zacharymohammadi Liar
you use pikashit then your team is trash.....
Blaked Up Say that to my Level 100 pikachu
Blaked Up
The Starter Pikachu in Yellow actually got a major buff compared to Red and Blue. So it’s still not the best, but still a good Pokémon.
How about Reflect or Lightscreen for Alakazam?
Light Screen is an egg move in Gen 2, plus it only works with the caster. It didn't get the 5 turn buff until Gen 2
And on top of that.... considering how frail Alakazam is you don't want to waste a round using Reflect.
Round one: Reflect --> Enemy does only take you out half way.
Second round: Psychic --> Enemy takes you out entirely
So you were able to get out one Psychic. Instead you could simply use Psychic right away without sacrificing half your HP for a Reflect that does not help you surviving the second attack anyway...
rather take Psybeam as the 4th attack. Simply out of convenience because Psychic does only have 10AP and a STAB Psybeam from 135 base special is still enough for almost everything weak to psychic types... Considering alakazam is your go-to sweeper in that team you want more than 10AP...
Get Starmie and you don't ever have to worry about using Alakazam ever again (Or Blastoise for that matter, yay)
Reflect on Alakazam is actually used in competitive, with Reflect up Alakazam takes about 25% from most physical attacks, I'm looking at Tauros and Snorlax Body Slam here, and even Rhydon's STAB Earthquake (The strongest physical hit, without a huge drawback, in the game) is only about 35%. They only thing this doesn't work well on is auto crit attacks that bypass it. Hell, with Reflect up, Alakazam can survive an exploding Golem at high health.
Alex_0080 In competetive gameplay reflect is no doubt your go-to 4th move. And it does only reduce the damage by 50%, not 75% :)
But apart from that, the team building here is not about competetive, but about playing the main game where you are definitly not willing to sacrifice your HP for a reflect because you do not want to run for a pokemon center after every 2 trainer battles : D
Do XD and Colosseum!!!
Jacob Long agree
XD
I wanted to recreate Red's team from pokemon gold/silver but I wasn't able to obtain espeon. So my final looked slighty diffrent: pikachu (of course), three Kanto starters, snorlax and lapras
it's funny how that's his team in soulsilver and heartgold
For fun i just made my team as similar to Red's team. Pikachu, Blastoise, Charazard, Venasaur, Snorlax & Lapris
Teeleer that’s not similar that’s exactly the same as his team in most games not counting GSC
@@DBZJ952TxTsavage if you played pokemon gold, silver, or crystal you would know that his original team and that he had an Espeon instead of a Lapras. But technically that was his team after the 2nd gen games. So you are technically right.

Pikachu:
-Thunder
-Thunderbolt
-Body Slam
-Submission

-Fire Blast
-Flamethorwer
-Fly
-Cut

MrMoonlightMan Mine is Flareon, Venusaur, Dodrio, Tentacruel, Butterfree, and Hypno
Yeah, let's be redundant and tack on low accuracy STAB moves instead of increasing a Pokémons move diversity or giving them more strategic options like Double Team.
You seem like the kind of person who thinks that if a move doesn't do damage, heal yourself, or put the enemy to sleep, it's bad.
Turnt SNACO For in game, thats all you need. In game requires no strategy lol
heh i taught my pikachu submission too nice mate
YOU CANT PUT CUT ON CHARIZARD
It would be interesting to see what team you would pick to fight another Pokémon Yellow player who had this team. Example: What team would you use to fight a friend or sibling that had a Pokémon Yellow save file with this team.
I want Colosseum plz
ludde karlsson you no videos yet
Clark's toy house and drawing channel what????
Hey Mystic! Love your videos! Keep making them and don’t let the haters get you down! :)
When I played Yellow on VC, it took all of my willpower to not dump Pikachu for Jolteon.
Aside from my Pikachu, I also had Ninetales, Gyarados, and Hypno, because I liked the idea of using Pokemon with good Special stats that got screwed by having it turn into Special Defense. My fifth and final member was Venusaur.
Good video, but sadly as you said yourself Pokemon like Alakazam and Golem can be pretty hard to come by nowdays when you play Yellow on the old GB cardtrige like me and have no way of trading these Pokemon with anyone. From own experience I can say that great alternatives for these Pokemon are Rhydon and Hypno, who really surprised me with their gen 1 strenght in my playthrough
Rhydon is still viable in gen 3 too
plz cover colosseum and xd.
The concept of Colosseum's story had me so excited as a kid
colosseum was dope and quite tough towards the end, because your team is constantly under leveled unless you do the 100 trainer tower
If you keep up with the optional colosseums you'd be pretty fine.
My team for yellow was
Pickachu
Snorlax
Charazrd
Blastoise
Venasuar
Dugdrio
When my charazard used slash, it always crited.
1=Pikachu Moves= Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave, Double Team, Body Slam.
2= Golem Moves= Rock Slide, Earthquake, Explosion, Counter.
3= Charizard Moves= Flamethrower, Fly, Earthquake, Slash.
4= Alakazam Moves= Psychic, Recover, Double Team.
5= Blastoise Moves= Surf or Hydro Pump, Ice Beam, Toxic, Double Edge.
6= SnorLax Moves= Body Slam, Phychic, Submission, Blizzard.
THANKS FOR THIS BRO
You should do a video about when to evolve certain pokemon. Pokemon that evolve via trade or stone and what level you should evolve them at based on moves they can learn and the differences between different generations.
Since he dosent offer an alternative for alakazam i recommend mew if you can get one. It can learn any mive in the game and it passes for a psychic type
Dig has the same power as Earthquake in Gen 1 Look it up
It's like $8 for a GBC trading cable you can use with a gameboy advance SP. A gameboy advance SP, the AGS-001 model never costs more than $50. Pick a couple up, or an extra one to trade with the one you already have. You can find the gen 1 cartridges on ebay for pretty cheap (battery may be dry, but it will still work 100% fine) ~$20. $78 total is relatively cheap all things considered.
Depending on how big a collector you are of the series, this may or may not be a good investment. The prices are considerably cheap considering they stopped manufacturing the original hardware years ago and they likely won't any time soon so prices will only go up.
Alakazam's 4th move should be Psybeam to save on PP. Psychic only has 10, this will let you use it more without using ethers or running back to the pokemon center
good call! Its a story team after all
Psychic, Reflect, Recover and Thunder Wave works better imo
What about shadow ball?
doesnt exist in gen1
+RockyRider25 1. Shadow Ball is a gen II move. The only ghost type move in gen I that does type damage is Lick, which is garbage and not learnt by Alakazam 2. Shadow Ball being a ghost-type move was physical in gens II and III, therefore it was very unviable choice as Alakazam has very poor attack stat
Pretty cool video! The Yellow version is a different enough experience that it does merit a separate video considering what works.
Still, it's kind of upsetting that you can't get Raichu in this one.
I always traded him onto red/blue and evolved him there (at level 26)...
This is pretty much what I used, aside from replacing golem with nidoking
Yellow was my first pokemon game and I was going to question you if you did not choose Charizard...
Him and Snorlax is why I beat the game.
You don't have to use Charizard to beat the game, though.
21st! Hi guys! And thanks for the yellow team!
SebbyyoZ LOL
imo i'm still switching out my Pikachu for an Electrode because even if this Pikachu is stronger I just feel better having a fully evolved (and REALLY FAST) electric type on my team. Another thing is that Blizzard might be a better option for Blastoise (unless you just like having more PP which is fair) considering it has 90% accuracy in Gen 1.
I would pick jolteon if I didn't already use my thunderbolt TM on Gengar, so I went to glitches and used ws m to evolve Pikachu
My Pokemon Yellow team:
Pikachu: Because he is the starter pokemon.
Charizard: Has great offensive stats and easy to obtain.
Blastoise: Can learn surf, great stats and blizzard really helps against dragonite.
Eggsecutor: Can double as a great grass and phycic type, fairly bulky too.
Nidoking: Is bulky, amazing offensively and has one of the best move pools in the game.
Dodrio: Is ok, often got replaced with my syther tho.
I don’t know anybody that has Pokémon yellow so I can’t get Golem or Alakazam so what do I do?
You don't need to specifically trade with a copy of yellow, just trade with red or blue.
Hunter the100time I don’t know anyone with red or blue either
The Purifier thanks for the tips
You could use Rhydon and Exeggutor instead, they're great alternatives
Dugtrio/Rhydon to replace Golem, Hypno/Exeggutor/Starmie/Slowbro to replace Alakazam
so if we don't have access to any trade for alakazam what would it be wise to use? keep using kadabra or would you use something else like a hypno?
The thing is... You CAN put the Pikachu in the PC, and trade it with the much better electric Pokemon, Jolteon, and late game, if you really want to you can also repace that with Zapdos! Also, you could've just given Blastoise's spot with much better water Pokemon, Like Lapras, Starmie, Gyrados etc.
Here's my team for Yellow. Magneton, Venusaur, Blastoise, Charizard, Rhydon and Hypno.
Super Booster Boy tf but unique
Just go full unique-- Jolteon, Arcanine, Gyarados, Gengar, Snorlax, Dragonite. Cool Trainer Status with that hard grinding😅✌
Glad someone recognized Dragonite Although they robbed him of Hyper Beam Gold/Silver
2:05 I mean, I didn’t plan on evolving my starting pikachu anyway...but thx for throwing it out there!
Still am waiting for a remake...STILL WAITING!
Did you saw the "leaks"?
Remco F. Gerritsen
Well it's here now
Last move for alkazam: Metronome
Just realised this came out on my Birthday. This is cool as I love the series.
You know, I always thought Blue's Eevee was determined by your own Eevee when you got it. Based on what you evolved yours into, his would evolve into something else. Say you got Flareon his would be Vaporeon, you got Vaporeon his would be Jolteon, you got Jolteon, his would be Flareon. Didn't evolve? He'd have Jolteon. Never knew it was connected to battles.
Yeah dependent on skipping certain battles or losing too
I thought exactly the same. And I remember evolving Eevee to Vaporeon and Blue having Jolteon, evolving it to Flareon and Blue having Vaporeon etc. I found out about being battle dependent much later, but in my mind (=in my heart) Blue's Eevee evolves according to what you choose your Eevee to evolve.
@@gerasimosst8643 Exactly
@@AzureKyle I'll say a couple more things.
I can honestly say that I never, in any of my saves, skipped the non mandatory battle, and Blue always ended with jolteon. But every time he ended up with jolteon, I had evolved eevee to vaporeon, because it was the best suited for my team (surf,ice beam).
But I clearly, clear as the day, remember going for Flareon in another save, because design wise was my favorite, and Blue ending up with Vaporeon!
Man, I thought I misremembered my childhood with this "depending on battles you won/lost" rhetoric.
And it might be right, no doubt, but it's not the way I remember it.
Yay this series is back
I like the video and the Pokemon you picked. I just have to disagree with a couple. Golem and Alakazam are amazing picks, but I think it would have been fair to say that if they're doing a solo run with no outside help (trading) or glitches, I would go with Dugtrio instead of Golem due to Dig being a very broken TM in that generation and his speed is crazy good, and Hypno as a runner up for a solid Psychic type Pokemon. Overall great video.
So, you don't include HM's on your main team? Man, that's a lot of backtracking to get the right Pokemon to get past an obstacle.
That's what Charizard is for
Charizard had fly and blastoise had surf. Those are hm's
@@cmart9240 Those are TWO of them, yes. They're also the best two which people use even now that they don't matter anymore.
@@cmart9240 No Cut or Strength for ACTUAL obstacles. Flying is a convenience. Surf is just the best Water move in the game ANYWAY. He didn't include it TO function as an HM. That's why he even said you could run Hydro Pump instead.

There's a way to evolve you're Pikachu in Yellow. You have to trade it to red/blue and then you can use a thunderstone and trade back. Only thing is they won't follow you around anymore, but you have a charged up Raichu
No Nidoking? He’s so OP
shankopotamuss agreed. Since he can be evolved instantly in mount moon moon stone and has nice stabs!
Probably doesn't use it because it makes him feel unoriginal. Why fix what isn't broken
I never got the vibe with using Nidoking. I mostly use either Dugtrio or Golem, and there's no reason to have 2 Ground types. I get that you can speedrun with him but Poison is such a bad type in gen 1 imo. I also don't think he becomes a ground type until his last evolution.
It's not about speed bruh, it's about having fun playing the game. Either way. For kanto, poison type doesn't do that well.
Golem
Here's my team for Pokemon Yellow. It's kinda basic though lol
Pikachu
Charizard
Venusaur
Blastoise
Hitmonchan
Kabutops
jpinon403 2 of your mons are useless lmao
My team in Yellow was: Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Nidoking, Jolteon and Snorlax.
Why the fuck would you replace Pikachu with Jolteon? Fucking monster.
That fact that you didn’t include Venusaur with its 100 base special, insta crit Razor Leaf, Sleep powder, and early lvl 32 evolution is beyond me 🤡.
Razor Leaf
Toxic
Leech Seed
Body Slam
@@mattjohnson9948 mega drain?
I think one of the best pokemon out there is Starme because of her move set diversity. You can teach her electric moves! A water pokemon with electric moves?! Plus, she is super fast, right behind Alakazam. I can annihilate anyone with her, I usually teach her psychic, recover, thunder bolt and blizzard. Anyone who dare gets in my way will feel the wrath of my Starme!
Use amnesia instead of submission on Snorlax cause special stat is broken and plus you utilize blizzard and psychic more.
Alakazam, last move? Teleport, duh!
My team was:
Charizard:
Fly
Flamethrower
Slash
Cut(needed for tm)
Blastoise:
Ice beam
Surf
Seismic toss
Skull bash
Venasuar:
Razor leaf
Poison power
Strength
Rest (with berry)
Nidoqueen:
Fissure
Earthquake
Double kick
Poison jab
Hitmonchan:
Ice punch
Electric lunch
Fire punch
High jump kick
Kangaskan:
Mega punch
Thunderbolt
Protect
Earthquake
I prefer Gengar over Alakazam. After I catch a Gastly in Lavender Town, I teach it Psychic and battle the fighting dojo in Saffron City until it evolves into Haunter. I think the Hypnosis / Dream Eater combo is more effective than Recover. Plus, it makes more sense defensively because most attacks can't hit a Ghost type.
Unfortunately Gengar isn't leaned towards defense. Hypnosis / Dream Eater works, but 60% accuracy on Hypnosis is horrible, so if you miss you're dead.
Or u could catch gengar in viridian forest at lvl 100 before brock ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Kurosakidude how?
you skip the second to last trainer in viridian forest, buy a escape rope in pewter city, do the mew glitch to that trainer ( pause right after you walk into his line of sight and use the rope) go walk towards mt moon and the dude will go tell you to challenge brock, while fighting the first dude in the gym use growl against his level 9 diglett 6 times then have him win (works best when pikachu is the only one in your party) go walk back towards viridian forest and a box of text will appear then you will be in a battle with a level one gengar, use thunder wave then keep chucking balls at him as most attacks will ko him, after that heal then encounter a low level pokemon and switch out gengar for another pokemon and beat it, this will make him level up to level 100, or watch this video for a walk through ruclips.net/video/c_p6Y-2ogR4/видео.html
Pikachu
Rocky (Machamp)
Charizard
Blastoise or Lapras
Snorlax
Mew on the glitch hypno otherwise
Pikachu(thunderbolt, body slam, thunder, flash)
Dragonite(surf, ice beam, dragon rage, thunder bolt)
Charizard(flamethrower, fly, earthquake, slash)
Alakazam(toxic, psybeam, psychic, recover)
Gangar(hypnosis, dream eater, pyschic, mega drain)
Machamp(rock slide, submission, dig, seismic toss)
By the time I reached the elite four all my Pokémon were at least 62 with machamp being my weakest and pikachu being my strongest at 70. I beat them all on the first go.
I'm playing Pkmn Yellow right now! Thank you Mystic!!! Ahahah
Me too! How far in are you?
Arrived in Lavender Town with 50 pkmn caught at level 25-30
I have some problems building a team rn, I am using only no mainstream pkmn. You?
lavender town as well, but only 14 caught^^ I am more of a just catch who I like guy, building the team around my favourites
currently thinking about wherever to replace pikachu once I get evee and have acess to volteon
Jolteon is super good but I want to challenge myself using Pikachu as main electric type but probably I will fail... it's hard to build a team in gen 1, pkmn's movepool is garbage! ahhhhhh...
Yeah the damn movepools ... TMs are so much more valuable here. I really want to get Gengar into my team but it pretty much has THE worst learnt moves in the game.
Alakazam best moveset is
Psychic
Recover
Reflect
Counter / Thunder Wave
Also, Blizzard > Ice Beam.
you don't need thunder wave on a pokemon as fast as Alakazam
I recently started my Yellow playthrough on the VC and I'm going to use Red's team in HGSS (Pikachu, Lapras, Snorlax and all 3 starters) just to try it out. Even though it may seem unbalanced, it should do well overall though.
What do you do if you can't evolve any of your pokemon. What would you replace for Kadabra then? Or would you just keep it
Interesting... What moveset would you recommend for Hypno then?
Also, What would be a good moveset for Dugtrio in gen 1?
NEBBY NEBBY ty for the movesets I'll have to try them
I chose starmie over alakazam plus it can replace blastoise and have another team spot open. the best moveset to run on it is phychic, surf (of course), ice beam and tri attack or blizzard.
earthquake, rock slide, dig and cut.
My team was
Pikachu
Blastoise
Charizard
Venusaur
Kadabra
Snorlax
