Blastoise
I go with my Bulba boy almost every time so it was a real treat to go with one of the other Kanto starters, and Squirtle is a damn good lad. Blastoise is the absolute rule of cool with those fucking canons
Nidoking
no Venu means I can try out a different poison type, had a friend as a kid that had a Nidoking and I always wanted one so finally getting around to using one was awesome
Fearow
filling out my favorite role of the early game weakling. I actually kinda dig Spearow's design, just a scrappy little guy
Machamp
garbage. don't bother with him in gen 1 his moveset is dogshit, Machamps such a fan favorite so it was pretty dissapoiting. I'll have to try him again in some future run in a later gen, maybe the remakes or lets go games
Hypno
picked up a Drowzee on a whim, don't think I've ever even heard of any of my buddies ever doing a run with a Hypno. Absolute MVP my god this guys fucking great. Gen 1psychic types are retardedly strong but Hypno's got just enough physical power to to be able to throw a half decent punch making him the anti-psychic psychic type. he's got enough special bulk to easily handle any attack Alakazam tries to throw at him and then he can just drop Ala with a Mega punch. wasn't expecting much and I walked away with a new favorite
Parasect
no Venu means I can try a new grass type and I always loved the looks of these guys. not great honestly, funky little guy and I enjoyed doing a run with him but other than Spore he really doesn't have much to get excieted about
