Just posting my team from Pokemon Red.

venasaur
~Growth
~Sleep Powder
~Body Slam
~Solar Beam

Basic moveset here. Put the foe to sleep and use Growth several times. Attack with Solar Beam, and Body Slam as a main attack.

body slam uses attack, and venasaur is a special attacker, so lose the body slam, and give it something else... not much to give it tho... I would use a vieplume with petal dance, sleep powder, reflect, and rest

golem
~Earth Quake
~Rock Slide
~Submission
~Explosion

Just takes out the opponents Pokemon with strong attack. When it has taken enough damage I just use Explosion.

earthquake is one word, but this looks like an ok move set

jolteon
~Thunder
~Pin Missile
~Sand Attack
~Dig

Sand Attack the opponent for the accuracy to fall. Sweeps away with Thunder.

keep in mind that jolteon has a lower attack, so try to stay with your special attacks, and i would suggest replacing pin missile with toxic, so you could toxic and dig

lapras
~Surf
~Ice Beam
~Confuse Ray
~Body Slam

Annoyer set. Start off with Confuse Ray and keep using Body Slam until the foe has been paralyzed.

replace body slam with sing, and you can sleep in 1, maybe 2 turns and then wreck

snorelax
~Body Slam
~Earth Quake
~Rock Slide
~Double-Edge

My Snorlax basically just inflicts as much damage as possible before going down.
replace double edge with rest to wreck, and you might replace body slam with hyperbeam, because there is no recharge if you ko

dodrio
~Drill Peck
~Tri Attack
~Agility
~Fly

Uses Agility to speed up against faster opponents. Sweeps away with Drill Peck and Tri Attack.
I'm guessing than you already have fly on dodrio, so nevermind about that, but it is fine other than that

First I would like to thank ShotDuck and Benjamin for help with my old team. Re-did my team a bit after the last few comments I got on it. I found out to late that blastoise is very sturdy and strong and I don't want to restart to get him. I have Blue version btw and it is very tedious for me to get Alakazam, Gengar, Golem, and/or Machamp. Anyway with the help that I recaived I decided to go with this. And btw, I have pokemon Chrystal for tradeback moves but the save battery died so I have to go about 1/4 through the game in one sitting to do the time capsule thing but if it is worth it I don't minding spending a rainy day doing it.

chansey
Sing
Ice Beam/Thunderbolt
Reflect
Softboiled

I would personally prefer a snorelax with hyperbeam (no recharge it it KOs, and a stab), EQ, Rock slide, and rest, because he provides a better wall, and a nice attack, and you already have a lot of special moves

Chansey offsets bad defense with reflect, sings for status, then pounds away with special attacks.

slowbro
Surf
Psychic
Rest
Amnesia

I would try using ice beam instead of amnesia, because he has a nice special, and if he KOs in one turn you don't need all that special defense

Slowbro usually has time to fully use Amnesia and, coupled with his already high defense, can sweep the field with relatively zero consequences. Most grass types are duel poison so Psychic owns them. Surf for STAB and rest for recovery, Slowbro can usually survive the two turns.

executor
Mega Drain
Sleep Powder
Leech Seed
Psychic

I think this should work, so good luck

Same as last time. He owns all waters, even those that know Ice Beam because he regens Hp to fast via Leech Seed and Mega Drain. If he is frozen by the beam, well then he is down.

dugtrio / rhydon
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Slash/Take Down
Agility/?

rydon has better stats, and with EQ, Rock slide, rest, and hyper beam, but if you use a snorelax I would switch for a hitmonchan with the fire, thunder, and ice punch, and submission (breed through crystal if necessary)

I just cannot decide. Rhydon has many more weakneses than dugtrio and is 4X weak to two types but does have loads more hp. The attack, I am pretty sure but have never really tested, goes to Dugtrio because he crits almost every time. I am leaning toward rhydon but there are lots of faster pokemon that know razor leaf, mega drain, or surf that will KO him becasue of his bad Special. I know a couple of guys suggested some special attacks for Rhydon but with the lack of EV's and Nature's in R/B/Y the damage output is very low and Starmie can use Surf and Thunderbolt to a much greater effect. Leanin toward Dugtrio.

charizard/ arcanine
EQ/Dig
Flamethrower
Body Slam
Swords Dance/Toxic

charizrd with toxic, flamethrower, earthquake, and maybe even fly should do it, and you need not worry about weaknesses when you are powerful enough to ko in one attack

These two are the best fire pokemon I could find. Arcanine packs a bit more physical punch then Charizard, does not have electric weakness, and does not take 4X damage from Rock Slide, but he is a bit slower and is a bit less powerful in the Special category (again I'm pretty sure this is true but not positive) and gets hit by EQ. Dig, I believe, is just as strong as EQ in R/B/Y but gives the opponents a heads up on whats coming. Body Slam is more more status effects then damage but it is still respectable. Swords Dance and Toxic were kinda thrown in there because I couldn't find viable alternatives to them and I think the work reasonably well. Leanin towards Arcanine. Problem is that I will have to trade to get Arcanine.

dragonite / nidoking
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
EQ/Thunder Wave.
Body Slam

keep the dragonite, and give it ice beam, thunder bolt, hyperbeam, and surf. dragonite has a nice special attack, and an even better attack, so his ice, electric, and water attacks will be tough, and hyper beam is a bit stronger than body slam, and it doesn't recharge if you KO the opponent's pokemon, and with dragonite's attack, he will own

This guy I am pretty sure I can replace with something better, maybe Jolteon. I am not sure what to fill this spot with. Help here plz.

Tried to get rid of the plethora of weaknesses I had but still keep general idea. And just a sidenote to Benjamin; thanks for the info but I don't see how Executor, and certainly Starmie, cannot be considered to posses "OOMPH" and both can KO "again and again". I know that you know ALOT more than me on this subject, hence you being a rater, but of the pokemon that you suggested: I cannot use Alakazam and gengar and I do not want to use Mewtwo. I know it was my fault for not specifying the things I cannot do/ do not like but this is just for future reference for anyone who ends up rating this team. But overall thank you very much, along with ShotDuck, for your input.
(I apologize for any errors in this, it was late when I typed it up).

{chansey}
Sing
Ice Beam/Thunderbolt
Reflect
Softboiled

Hrmm...I would pass on sing. Put thunderbolt over it. It's more preference, though. If you want sing, just go straight-up ice beam to prevent a ground walling you.


Surf
Psychic
Rest
Amnesia

I would reconsider surf. Maybe put the thunderbolt here that didn't make it onto Chansey? ;D


Mega Drain
Sleep Powder
Leech Seed
Psychic

Yes. If you're into that sort of thing, explosion is an option over sleep powder.

/
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Slash/Take Down
Agility/?

Now if you're leaning toward Dugtrio, don't do agility. You really don't need the extra speed. Unless you really want that small increase in crits. It doesn't really learn anything else, though. Hyper Beam, Body Slam, and Substitute are the only noteworthy things that could go in the fourth slot.

Now with Rhydon. I would pass on take down in favor of body slam. His speed could use some paralysis help. And the last spot...again, just some generic fourthmove options. Hyper Beam or Substitute. Hyper beam because he could totally ROCK it with his attack. And substitute to prevent OHKO special attacks.

/
EQ/Dig
Flamethrower
Body Slam
Swords Dance/Toxic

Fire is the most neglected type in RBY. If anyone makes up for it, Charizard and Arcanine do. Arcanine, however, has a godawful movepool. This really is the best Arcanine can be. Charizard, however, can rock his moveset better. Charizard also gets Rock Slide with tradeback. If you're worried about Rock Slide being used against him, go reflect somewhere. If you're into that kind of thing, go Slash over Swords Dance and potentially ditch Body Slam. Slash will always crit. But whatevs. Now given the circumstances, I would lean toward Charizard. That's just me though. I like Charizard.

/
Ice Beam
Thunderbolt
EQ/Thunder Wave.
Body Slam

Now with this...I don't really know what you're trying to do here. Dragonite doesn't really have the special to pull off sweeping, and Nidoking DEFINITELY doesn't have the special for it. You really don't need this guy. You have ice beam, thunderbolt, EQ, and body slam elsewhere. What are you trying to accomplish with your sixth man?

ok I am only at the 7th gym so my team will learn better moves but i would like to know if im off at a good start...also ild like too know wich one i should switch for once i catch him

lvl 29
wrap blizzard
agility thunderbolt/thunder
leer fire blast
thunderwave body slam (can paralyze and hurt)

lvl 26
toxic
hypnosis
egg bomb body slam for 3 forms of status inflictions, if yur luck isn't very good
mega drain psychic is stronger, and mega drain is too weak, and solar beam needs to charge

lvl 35
double edge body slam is better for no recoil, and 30% chance to paralyze
quick attack thunder/thunderbolt
double kick
sand attack mimic maybe... (trade pokedoll for the tm)
I'm not very good with jolteon to be honest

lvl 36
rockslide
double kick
horn drill not very acurate, and is better with earthquake
surf I would use blizzard... but it' permanent now

lvl 45
cut (i didnt know that there wasnt a move deleater in the 1st gen and when i found out i was pissed)
fly
dig earthquake is stronger, and faster, but dig is a good tool...
ember flamethrower
not much we can do with the hms...

lvl 41
thunderbolt
bubblebeam
psychic
tri attack fire blast (for switching out charizard)

to answer your question, charizard is filled with hms and dig, so for competitive I would switch out him for mewtwo, and have mew/ mewtwo cover the fire with fire blast

here's a good set for mewtwo:
mewtwo
-amnesia
-psychic (obviously)
-fire blast/thunder/thunderbolt/blizzard/ice beam
-blizzard/ice beam/thunder/thunderbolt/fire blast

hope it helps

ok I am only at the 7th gym so my team will learn better moves but i would like to know if im off at a good start...also ild like too know wich one i should switch for once i catch him

Might as well get my team rated since I still play with a couple of friends.



Earthquake
Mega Punch body slam is more powerful, accurate, and can paralyze
Flamethrower
Fire Blast 2 fire moves are redundant, and flamethrower is strong enough, try submission or seismic toss

{venasaur}
Swords Dance
Double Edge body slam can paralyze, and doesn't recoil
Razor Leaf
Leech Seed


Hydro Pump
Blizzard
Earthquake
Skull Bash body slam is better (skull bash takes two turns, and body slam could have dealt 85 power twice in that time


Thunderbolt
Reflect
Surf
Thunder Wave


Psychic
Seismic Toss
Recover
Reflect
if you can trade back to g/s/c the elemental punches are great


Ice Beam 2 ice moves are redundant, and could be used for toxic or mimic... but it's not much better
Blizzard
Sky Attack
BubbleBeam

I also occasionally switch in a Gyarados. Also due note I got Surf on Raichu and the other starters through Pokemon Stadium.


Hyper Beam
Bite bite is weak, and is better replaced with strength, but blizzard or fire blast are two possibly better choices
Thunderbolt
Hydro Pump

Machamp: Very strange moveset. I would check and see if it can actually learn Fire Blast before putting that one on. Same thing with Dig, although it's certainly an okay strategy for battling. Of the other two, I would keep Rock Slide over Hyper Beam (unless it can't be learned the other way) and check on Rolling Kick. Sorry to grade this one so badly, but with all of the uncertainty of it, I can't rank it high...

Rank: 5/10

...

Gengar: It learns Explosion or Selfdestruct? Wow, I was not aware of that. Otherwise, good choices there. Take advantage of its type on your team. 'Nuff said.

Rank: 9/10
