After going through learning about evs and ivs and what have you, I finally got around to beating Red. I used Metagross(mega), araquanid(Leftovers), and hydreigon(life orb). Honestly though, I felt like some fights were freebies, or they weren't that easy last time I tried it.

Now I finally have a reason to breed for a shiny charizard now that I have the mega for it. #feelsgoodvp
