ragoniteWell, as an exclusivly first generation player, my elite where:
1. Dugtrio w/Earthquake, Rock Slide, Fissure and Hyper Beam
2. Zapdos w/ Thunder, Thundershock, Fly and Hyper Beam
3. Articuno w/ Blizzard, Ice Shot, Fly and Substitute
And yes they are listed in order of preference. Dugtrio would 1-hit most things and would ALWAYS get the first attack. If I came up against something really tough he could always go for fissure and cheap kill it. Zapdos is the perfect complement to his move set, between the two of them they could have an advantage over any tyoe in the game (barr ghost). Articuno I like since he's ice element which has few weaknesses.
As for the others... nothing really blow me away. I dappled with gyrados and seadra's which were good but not great. I'd use Venasaur for its sleep powder, but mostly the rest of my pokemon would just be HM mules.
EDIT
How could I have forgotten!
4.Golem w/Earthquake, Rock Slide, Fissure and Hyper Beam
Iron defence on the Golem was always a winner, just as long as I could rely on Zapdos to take out the water pokemon and articuno/zapdos to deal with grass/fighting he would crush anything!

Six Voltorbs. If I lose a battle to some snot-nosed kid with a type advantage, I'm making sure he goes down with me.
Espeon
Umbreon
It's unconventional, but it's not designed to be a dream team. I chose them because I like them and they're my (RP, fanfic, and in-game) character's signature pokemon, and I raise them carefully enough that they usually win, anyway.
That Espeon can one-shot a lv. 100 Groudon with psybeam should say enough.
My favorite (and most effective) legendary is Darkrai, however. Dark void, Nightmare+Bad Dreams, Dream Eater. Gets 'em every time. I just don't use him as I have a strong opposition to using legendaries. Less for the hardcore gaming "It's not challenging enough!" reason, and more for the hardcore story "I can't put something that powerful on a leash..." reason.

I absolutely REFUSE to use legendaries. It's not interesting if you win all the time.
Anyway, here's something for ya:
-Spiritomb (generally an annoyer, I'm trying to rework him a little tho)
-Steelix (really only there to pair with Spiritomb and explode ASAP when I'm pissed at someone's team)(btw yeah he's super slow, but Quick Claw = my best buddy.)
-Togekiss (actually quite well balanced, I use it as a special sweeper than can take a hit)
-Weavile (sp?) (physical sweeper, moves and item that up critical hit ratio)
-Blastoise (my tank, has rest + chesto berry)
-Leafeon (kinda like my Togekiss, but uses physical moves.)
and when I actually want to fight fair (i.e. no exploding Steelix) I have:
-Porygon-Z (my friend trained it for me as a present, it's a special sweeper)
I also trained a Vespiquen and a Magnezone, but they ended up kinda sucking.

I'm an old first-generation fogey by this point. So...
Charizard
Gyrados
Sandslash
Jolteon
Fearow
Hypno
I still have a Silver save on emulator, though, so I guess my second generation team is
Feraligatr
Machoke
Beedrill
Ampharos
Magmar
Jumpluff
Charizard
Gyrados
Sandslash
Jolteon
Fearow
Hypno

there are more than 3 reasons the first part of my name is black. I hereby change skarmory to peliper, and Crawdaunt to sandslash. that ought to even out that party a bit more.Michael_McCloud said:
