Snorlax was god.
Stall was king.
Battles took forever, but at the same time I miss it because Pokemon could actually take a hit and hyper offense didn't steamroll everything.

Raikou/Zapdos
Things that can kill/wall Snorlax (Machamp/Skarm)
Anything with Explosion

The reason people compare it to chess is because you need to foresee many, many turns in advance because there's usually an obvious way things will play out, and you need to plan out a long term strategy, on top of teams often being very similar so you can't blame matchup

Can confirm. 9 of 10 good teams are Snorlax, a legendary Electric-type, a defensive Steel-type, something that learns Spikes and two good Pokémon that fit the rest.

Teams with Raikou will usually have Skarmory as the Steel-type, and two defensive or support Pokémon, whereas teams with Zapdos often use Steelix and two offensive Pokémon, often with Explosion.

I remember back in the day me and my friends started a collective gen 2 replay.We had a small tournoment in the treehouses we built in the woods behind our neighborhood. Final round was me vs a japanese friend who moed to the area maybe a year and a half after gen1 came out. like the scumbag he was, ended up bringing a mewtwo to fight us, as his super secret trump card. He taught it Blizzard, Fireblast, Thunder and Psychic. He missed my bright powder umbreon every time

fuck you james
