I feel like Gamefreak could make in game fights more challenging when it comes to Gen I pandering since it feels lack luster. Consider the following in terms of Red.

- Grant him an AI similar to the Battle Tower/Subway/Tree outside of the Battle Tree where he effectively uses movese ts to generate advantage along with the ability to switch out when at a type disadvantage.

- Red is granted the ability to use 3 Mega Evolutions in per Battle in contrast to the 1 everyone gets as a sign of Experience and being a ridiculous fucking Gimmick only he (and potentially Blue/Green) gets.

- Make a competitively viable moveset and give items to his team that will grant this advantage.


Let's take into account Red's Team (I will disregard Lapras or Espeon, but am in favor for Espeon coming back instead of keeping Lapras since the damn thing increases his weaknesses to Electric and Fighting types).
