While I can see why you chose the elemental punches for Hitmonchan, there's no way the moves are able to be used effectively without the physical/special split

They should do more of the “previous gen elite four is next gen’s champion” like they did with Lance. It connects the story and games better

The Marowak on the Agartha Team is such a unique and cool addition that fits with the storyline and her typing. Love this team lineup.

Something interesting to note is that Dewgong won't be able to utilize Hail as effectively because Blizzard can't become 100% accurate under it until Generation 4 onward.

Will never understand why there is only one ghost line in generation one. When things like Ninetails, Marowak, or even Parasect exist.

It would make so much more sense if Agatha and Lance were Poison and Flying type trainers

Fun fact about the Kanto Elite 4, they have dual type specialities: Lorelei is a Ice Specialist, but uses just as many water types Bruno is a FIghting Expert, but is also uses rock/ground types. In Gen 3 it's ground types as in the rematch he evolves his 2 Onix into Steelix so keep their ground typing, but in the lets go games it's Rock type as he switches one of his Onix out for an Alolan Golem who is a Rock/Electic type in the rematches. Agatha is supposed to be a Ghost Master but all her pokemon are actually Poison type. Lance is a Dragon Tamer, but uses more flying types. In fact his champion team in the Johto games is a full team of flying types. It's why he's sometimes called Bird Keeper Lance. I have also always thought that each Elite Member could use a 6th pokemon. No major trainer uses all 6 pokemon in the Kanto games except the final rival fight, but you would expect at least the strongest trainers in the land, the Elite 4, to also do the same. Whilst you stated that you don't think any elite four member other than Lance should recieve a Kanto starter, I dissagree. Blastoise is a perfect fit for Lorelei's team, acting as an aditional water type for her and matches the other shelled pokemon she uses Lapras, Slowbro, and Cloyster. As Agatha's second type is supposed to be Poison type, I think another poison type would be great for her Team. In particular Veneusar is a great choise as it is not only another poison type, it's a grass type to add better coverage to her team, and it further alludes to ties between Agatha and Professor Oak who gives away Bulbasaur at the beginning of the game. As for the other two ELite four I do think there is an option for an additional team member for each: Bruno could use a Golem. Not only did he use an Alolan variation in Gen 7. this would also correct something very strange that happens with Gen 1. Unlike most pokemon in the original 150, Golem is never used by any trainer in the original Gen 1 games, not even a random hiker in victory road. This would be a chance for this trade only pokemon to be added to people's pokedex. As for Lance I usually say take his Charizard from his Johto games but you already did that. So I guess could be to give him a second Dragonite, an homage to the fact Lance will eventually use 3 of them. In particular this second Dragonite could be more physically focused to make the most of Dragon Dance. Dragon Dance, Brick Break (for ice types), Earthquake (for Rock or Electric types ruining his flying types) and Hyper beam (since he's got to have at least 1 Hyper Beamining Dragonite somewhere)

I really like the visuals in your video, the colors, the backgrounds and the animations, they look pretty cool

My only question is, if no Ninetales on Agatha because it's too close to Blaine's, why give Lance a Charizard when the Champ can have one too? That'd be back-to-back Zards. I think it'd be interesting to see a Seadra (which could be replaced by Kingdra at the rematches) or something wild like a Porygon on Lance's team. But, as per usual, great video and great series!

This was great! There's just three things I would've done for these teams, personally 1) More held items: I liked how Agatha had two Pokemon with held items, and I think all of the elite four and Blue should've have had two Pokemon with held items. It's one thing I've wished to see more of in main story Pokemon is using held items and for the Elite four and champion it makes sense for them to start using a few more items than regular trainers as it helps solidify why they are at the top because they aren't solely relying on type matchups and coverage. 2) Increase Blue's levels: This is moreso to solidify his narrative skill of being a strong trainer who can level up Pokemon quickly (referenced in both the manga and recently Pokemon Masters EX with the Neo Champion Event) and take a nod to his Pokemon Generations episode where it showed him taking the Elite Four down without overtly struggling. I think his team being from 60-65 would show that off without being an impossible feat 3) Swap out Return on Pidgeot: Return is great but moreso for HGSS Blue who has learned to bond with his Pokemon more instead of purely focusing on technical skill. I think double-edge might work well as a substitute for a normal time move.

Bruh I can’t believe some of the original move sets from the game. What were those e4 members thinking 🤦‍♂️

I have a few points I don't necessarily agree with. For Lorelei's Lapras, why go through the trouble of putting a second weather effect on her team and then not even giving her a Water type move to make use of it? I would change it to Hail and give her Blizzard instead, and change Thunder to Thunderbolt or Surf. For Bruno's Hitmonchan, replacing Foresight with Mind Reader means taking away its only way to hit Ghost types while not even having a better effect in the first place. And finally for Lance instead of Thrash I'd give Gyarados Body Slam, which is a tutor move it learns. It means he has a chance of paralyzing the opponent while not having to worry about Confusion. The only difference is 5 base power.

About blue’s pidgeot with return, the narrative reason he lost is because he didn’t love his Pokémon enough, so I’d replace it with something like double-edge or something

it feels weird having lapras get rain dance yet he has no water moves even though that would give a boost to water type attacks

Jynx should definitely keep Lovely Kiss. it’s nearly a signature move for Jynx. Also its better to get off a 75% speedy sleep than to have to endure hits with its paper thin defense and nonexistent HP

I am loving this series - please keep going

I would love to see the gym/e4 changes you make as a rom hack. Id beore thqn happy to show you how to do gen3 edits

Great video. Even loved the Lorelei segment because it felt so black and white elite four rematch like it’s a good challenged! Great video!

amazing video man! cant wait for the johto video!! the romhack would be awesome, should add phys/spec split

This looks dope, cant wait to play this mod!

I agree with everything except with changing Blastoise's Hydro Pump. I know Surf is more reliable but maaaan, If there's a pokemon were Hydro Pump is iconic it's Blastoise. Also even tho Hydro Pump doesn't have the best accuracy it is still scary lmao

keeping onix was a bold move but with your logic applying poliwrath and its importance with chuck you did a good job

Here are some type change suggestions for a rom hack: Blastoise: Water/Steel Arbok: Poison/Dark Hypno: Psychic/Dark Marowak: Ground/Ghost Seadra: Water/Dragon For Gen 2: Ampharos: Electric/Dragon Sudowoodo: Rock/Fighting

while there a bit of changes (in terms of movesets and items), overall I love the changes you made to the elite four and would love to see a enhancement romhack of it 👍. Maybe not buffing mons, but changing trainer teams to be a little more chalenging and overall more fun. (ironically I was revisiting my firered save a couple days before you made this video).

I'd love to see these videos for every regions gym leaders and elite four!

Yes I’d love to see a rom hack of this!

Eyyyyyy i really love these content and a pixel art pokemon

In the anime, Brock thought Bruno had some secret training technique that was key to his success. Giving him something similar in game would be a fun reference. I am thinking about giving several of his Pokemon Hidden Power. If given a proper maxes out Hidden Power, Bruno can overcome his Pokémon's shallow move pool and become a memorable threat. I am thinking about swapping out Primeape's Rock Slide with Hidden Power Bug, Hitmonlee's Meditate with Hidden Power Flying and Machamp's Double Edge with Hidden Power Ghost. Hidden Power Bug allows Primeape to effectively hit the many Psychic type Pokemon and some Grass types. Hidden Power Flying allows Hitmonlee be the main anti Grass and Bug type Pokémon on his team. Finally, Hidden Power Ghost allows Machamp to counter Pyschics and Gengar.

this is actually great I would play this

I loved the work you did with the Elite Four and Blue Teams, I especially liked your version of Lance's team. From the Blue team, I like the Venusaur version 👍🏻✨ // In Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee, Agatha have a Alolan Marowak ☠️

i think all of lance's pokemon should have hyper beam. that is basically his gimmick since gen 1. hit hard...really hard.

I’d like to see you fix Kalos’ gym leaders and elite four next

I like these video 😊

Great video😀

Great vid! What site did you use to get the sprites and moves to look like that?

Bruno’s hitmonchan having the elemental punches in fire red and leaf green sounds good on paper. But then you remember the physical/special split hasn’t happened yet by those games so it actually makes him weaker.

*Lot's of Text Warning* Great video like always, here's some changes that I personally would do: -I don't have anything to say about Lorelei -I would replace Hitmonchan thunder punch with Thief to have a counter agains't psychic types, ice punch already covers flying and grass which resist fighting. -Really liked what you did with Agatha but I think Parasect could work, considering you're giving some pokemons Toxic, parasect could stall with Protect a toxic of his own, maybe set up light screen which will be very useful and thief to steal the player item. -About Lance, Personally feel like Charizard a starter pokemon doesn't fit here.. I would replace it with seadra having Dragon Breath, Ice Beam, Hidden Power Fire (to hit ice types) and Smoke screen.. With the Poison Point ability. -About the Rival, I think Pidgeot fly fits so well considering he's a trainer that has been going across the region like us but it gives me mixed feeling cuz it's so easy to exploit a 2 turns move... and I keep this opinion about Arcanine dig which could be replaced with Iron Tail to counter rock types that might be packing Earthquake... for charizard, again fly's very exploitable.

Lorelei’s team: Mr. Rime Mamoswine Alolan Sandslash Alolan Ninetails Lapras Bruno’s team: Hitmonchan Hitmonlee Sirfetch’d Paldean Tauros Machamp Agatha’s team: Cursola Alolan Marowak Annihilape Mismagius Gengar Lance’s team: Gyarados Alolan Exeggutor Charizard Kingdra Dragonite I’m limiting to just Kanto & Johto, but I am including the Alolan Galarian & Paldean species of Pokemon from those regions, as well as evolved forms of Kanto & Johto Pokemon from other regions.

You know what would be fun - if they post-actively upgraded original gb/gba games for the virtual consoles. Like fixing the bugs, adding new types and special split. And also adding regional variants and evolutions. They could just give us both files and have a setting in Virtual Console to enable either original version of the game or an upgrade. Just by adding that - Lorelei would have access to Sandslash, Ninetales and Mr. Rime, Bruno could get Hitmontop, Sirfetch'd and Tauros, Agatha could get Marowak and Annihilape. But could also replace some of her Poison types with more sinister Galarian Slowbro/Slowking or additional Dark types like Persian or Muk or maybe a reference to her sister/cousin Bertha with Rhyperior. And obviously Lance could get his Lets Go additions like Exeggutor and Seadra/Kingdra. This wouldn't be as painful as badly ported games like BDSP, but wouldn't require full time remake like ORAS. This could work even better for Johto games, where Will would get access to Farigiraf and Wyrdeer, Bruno could still use other fighting mons, Koga would get Clodsire, Sneasler and Yanmega, and Karen would get Honchkrow, Overqwil and Weavile, and then Lance could also utilise Pokemon like Ampharos. And that's if we don't include Pokemon like Paradoxes. Because Bruno with Great Tusk would slay, and Lance getting at least one dino - would actually make him a proper dragon master. Also similar concept would be to use the original non-regional Pokemon as reference to those regional forms. Similar to Lance using Seadra in LGPE. This way we could give Bruno Tauros-K or Farferch'd-K as a reference to the Galarian/Paldean forms - instead of letting him use Onixes. would also make some plot sense for Agatha to use Marowak as well, as just in Kanto that Pokemon is connected with an actual ghost.

My updated Elite 4 would incorporate all starters. I would also buff up Lance since he’s originally supposed to be the “final boss” until the surprise Rival fight. Here’s my version: Lorelai Dewgong Blastoise Jynx Cloyster Lapras Bruno Primeape Pooliwrath Hitmonchan Hitmonlee Machamp Agatha Haunter Venusaur Weezing Arbok Gengar Lance Gyarados Charizard Aerodactyl Dragonite Dragonite Dragonite

What about a ditto for Agatha? It's got that body snatcher vibe 🤔

For Lances Team, consider Dragonbreath over Outrage on Dragonair and replacing Thunderwave with Blizzard. Dragonbreath is an egg move and has a chance of inflicting Paralysis anyways and Blizzard is coverage with a chance to freeze. The stats on the pokemon are already underwhelming by that level, so less stall but more risk is probably more interesting for the player's challenge.

Pidgeot, use Return! *1 damaged* Blue:what?!?!????!?!? Pidgeot:you forgot to do your daily clean up for my pokeball, so now i hate you Blue:ok ill do it now Pidgeot:*its 1000x super effective, stab, crit, plus 6 atack set up,x atack, mega evolved* ~Venosaur fainted~

*Yells in Kylo Ren Voice* More MOAR!!!

I think you should do these improvements with the national dex and updated moves but each member goes to a different region to improve their team.

I liked the updates to E4 lineups Can u also update their rematch teams(include Hoenn Pokemon please) Also I'm looking forward to your ROMhack someday 😊

Love these changes. Wish the vanilla game offered challenge like this

I don’t blame you for getting Sabrina and Kogha the wrong way round because I did the exact same thing on my playthrough of Kanto 😂😂😂

Great video

So...are you going to do the Round 2 for the FRLG Elite Four? Never could beat Blue's Tyranitar...

i love these videos!!! this is exactly what i think the pkmn games need :D

I think a nice change to Agatha would be to replace the second Gengar and the Haunter with Hypno and Marowak. Instead of the Haunter and Arbok like you proposed. Arbok really fits the spooky vibe that Agatha is trying to go with, and I see no reason to keep a second Gengar. It adds more team variety and builds up to her more powerful Gengar so much better. For Lance, I really dislike the idea of the last e4 member and FUTURE CHAMPION having an unevolved Pokémon. Its better to give him something more draconic in nature. I thought about Nidoking/Queen, Rhydon, and Kangaskhan, but since Giovanni uses all those Pokémon, it would be kinda repetitive. How about Scyther? It fits the draconic theme well enough, it gets almost ZERO usage from trainers, and it leaves Lance and the entire e4 with no repeats. Just an idea, overall I really like the rest of the changes, would love to see this series continued. You earned yourself a sub :)

You gave the ice type elite four member’s signature mon rain dance instead of hail? Lol

I can imagine Agatha throwing a lot of people off fighting her

Think for fun, Blue's starter SHOULD have the elemental Hyper Beam move, just as an added surprise, so you see it use Flame-thrower, almost kills you then BOOM Blast Burn!

These like 'redesign challenges' always make me wonder things like. What if you gave someone more or less carte blanche to go back over the first 3(4?) generations of Pokemon and redesign them from more or less the ground up with things later gens changed in mind. Like, making say, gen 1 with the idea of 'oh okay we need to make sure that special-split is accounted for, and the physical/special move split is accounted for' and taking into mind things like Dark/Steel/Fairy types being added, etc. I would say like, have to keep the pokemon's art/pixel art the same, have to keep the name the same, and evolutionary lines cannot change. But you can change like, base stats to *whatever*, readjust typings(though I think the primary typing should not be able to change, only the secondary/adding a secondary or even removing one), and change things like 'how' a Pokemon evolves, or _when_ a pokemon evolves. So for example instead of needing to get your dragonair to like, 60 or whatever it is, maybe only 50 instead. Or you don't need to trade kadabra and just need to level it up at a level greater than, like, 30, while it's holding a bent spoon. Stuff like that, you know? Just really wonder what someone could do with that and how good/bad it would be.

Fire Red Omega DX is a good rom hack with awesome fixes too, its hard but awesome.

That would be really cool if you did that I would play it

And then there’s the super boss! After catching all 150 Pokémon completing the Regional Pokédex, Prof. Oak will tell you to go challenge the Elite For again for a special boss battle, where he will be waiting to challenge you with his best team: Tauros, Exeggutor, Arcanine, Gyarados, Dragonite and “”the starter left behind fully evolved””

How I would fix the Kanto Elite Four and Champion teams in FRLG: Lorelei: Level 52 Dewgong, Level 51 Cloyster, Level 52 Slowbro, Level 51 Jynx, Level 54 Lapras Bruno: Level 54 Onix, Level 53 Hitmonchan, Level 53 Hitmonlee, Level 54 Onix, Level 56 Machamp Agatha: Level 54 Gengar, Level 54 Golbat, Level 56 Arbok, Level 53 Haunter, Level 58 Gengar Lance: Level 58 Gyarados, Level 54 Dragonair, Level 55 Seadra, Level 58 Aerodactyl, Level 60 Dragonite Blue's team can stay at Level 57-63. I changed my mind on Lance's team because it feels wrong that we never see a Level 55 Pokémon in the Elite Four. I replaced his second Dragonair with Seadra.

jynx is so under rated due to its design, I remember sweeping the majority of kanto including elite 4 with the traded jynx and have loved it since, amazing offensive typing and stats

The only change I'm gonna make, and this is by preference. And I do think this is why Cynthia is so nostalgic compared to the first three. The champion should be fucking hard lmao. I would buff every pokemon up by 2 or 3 levels, with the starter being lvl 68. I deadass might even push it to 70 so that it's up there with legendaries. But 68 seems like a good calibration. I remember playing leafgreen all the way through and Champion Green is fairly disappointing. And it might be because having a Charizard with good move coverage and stats kinda washes the whole team. Which is crazy because people see charmander as the hardest starter.

would love to see a johto version of this revision series

The reason hitmonchan didn't have the elemental punches was because all of brunos Kanto teams are pre psychical special split. They'll do like 5 damage

From what I saw a lot of changes are solid but a few need some improvements. Which it's mainly fixed for some in post game rematchs and even let's go games. Starting off Lorelei Jynx signature ice punch being dropped for ice beam was a let down but it's fine due to more damage out put. Her leading with cloyster over dewgong and giving cloyster spikes was a great way to keep the player on their feet about hazards. Then going from spikes on the ground to hail falling from the sky is so cold (ha) Slowbro not having a water move is off for me I would have at least gave it water pulse Psychic Yawn Ice beam So that even tho most of the weaknesses are special (dark, electric, grass) the ice beam can cover that will also having water pulse for stab with a 33% chance of confusion to spice things up. I don't hate the lapas as the rematch gives lapas Thunderbolt Psychic Surf Sheer cold with a team mate setting up hail before it. I could be mistaken on the sheer cold it could be stab ice beam Bruno With let's go giving him a team of fighting types I would have given him the poliwrath. it be used as foreshadowing and story telling with Bruno and Chuck. As they trained together which is why they have poliwrath on the team. Agatha My main issue with her is Ghost is that they only have the Gengar line in gen 1. Let's go giving her Alolan Marowak was a great fix but not by much. As well as her rematch giving her gen 2's only ghost Misdrevous. Agatha could have still rocked a few poisons like Arbok for the scary factor, over having 2 Gengar. Yet adding hypno felt better too for the creepy factor behind it. Lance My only issue is safeguard should have stayed on Dragonair, dragon dance on Gyarados just speeds it up so I personally would drop thrash for maybe thunderbolt or bounce since it learns bounce as magikarp. Gary Charizard didn't need the fly. aerial ace is way better which I get their the bosses we don't wanna break them. But I never go for fly over aerial ace. Adding shock wave to Alakazam is a nice touch. Pigeot with return is a nice reference to HGSS/GSC where it's in the move pull for stab. As well as the reference to when oak tells him the love he has for his pokemon isn't as strong as the players. Eggextor with sleep seed is a nasty we love it. Rhydon fix is great Archnine I would have just dropped roar for bite. Venusaur is fine. Blastoise ice beam of blizzard over skull bash.

The difference I noticed most is how Blue and elite four's pokemon's levels for FireRed and LeafGreen are 2 levels lower then what they are in original Red and Blue.

So about Hitmochan, I guess before the Physical/Special Split, maybe you should give it Rock Slide and Earthquake or Bulk Up.

If you did a romhack you should fuse the rock and ground type to the earth type and make giovanni a normal type specialist if you do decide to do that mandjtv recently made a video on the type chart

I love this! I just think Jynx needs lovely kiss- ONLY because it’s the Pokémon’s signature move.

I woulda kept Lovely Kiss on Jynx, I would get rid of attract. Jynx putting something to speep, then following that with a fake tears or 2, would be strong. For Slowbro, I would rather it have something besides Amnesia. Besides STAB Surf, since all her other members have water moves, I would’ve given it Flamethrower. Lastly, the elemental punches on hitmonchan are terrible, with its low special attack. Using a beautiful mormal type move or any other physical move will do more then the punches, even if they are supereffective.

I've always wondered why blue had a golduck in the manga but not in the games, it would be kind of unique to see blue one day with a golduck on his teams in the video games

Would you also rework their rematch teams, or do you feel those are fine?

Give us the second part, the upgrade post sevii island

For me, Lorelei should have been purely a rain team instead of having both hail and rain. There is literally no benefit to setting up hail; Blizzard doesn't ignore accuracy check in it until Gen 4. Rain also has the benefit of nerfing fire attacks which all of Lorelei's team members would love. Agatha fits the vibe of a Ghost OR Poison trainer so, personally, I would have kept the Arbok.

My version of fixing Kanto FRLG / Let’s Go Elite 4 members & champion Lorelei-Ice 1. Slowbro 2. Dewgong 3. Cloyster 4. Jynx 5. Lapras (ace) Bruno-Fighting 1. Poliwrath 2. Hitmonchan 3. Hitmonlee 4. Primeape 5. Machap (ace) Agatha-“Ghost” (really poison types) 1. Venomoth 2. Golbat 3. Arbok 4. Haunter 5. Gengar (ace) Lance-Dragon 1. Seadra 2. Dragonair 3. Aerodactyl 4. Gyrados 5. Dragonite (ace) Blue-Champion (Honestly no changes for me) Pidgeott, Gyrados, Arcanine, Exegutor, Rhydon, Alakazam, & the Kanto starter thats strong against yours. Plus Heracross & Tyranitar for rematches in FRLG

Ngl I think I'd keep surf on Slowbro to give it water stab, lol

Only thing I would say is that Fly wouldn’t be a good move for flying types. Because it’s a free switch for the player but love everything else

Keep Lovely Kiss on Lorelai's Jynx. It's her signature move and it's pretty good. Also, for Lance's team, rather than Dragonair, I'd go with Kingdra, or at least Seadra. Having two members from the same line in a team just doesn't sit right with me. I can let it slide with Agatha since there aren't a lot of other options in Gen III, though. I never would have considered Marowak, by the way, but there is a 9-10% chance of encountering a Cubone on each floor of Pokémon Tower, so it fits. Nice job.

did you forget that golbat can now evolve into crowbat and there is also the option og lance having a kindra as it is a gen 2

Hoenn next!!! 💚💚💚

I’d keep aerial ace over fly for consistency

Hail doesn’t improve Blizzard’s accuracy until Gen 4, so might want to revamp the Dewgong moveset by switching Blizzard to Ice Beam.

If Game Freak is not going to get rid of Bruno’s Onix well they should just give Onix a fighting type evolution if you ask me. Also in a future game, Agatha should get Annihilape as well.

I would opt for waterfall instead of surf on Gyarados. Especially the one with dragon dance!

Ok, so the Kanto elite 4 as you said needs work. LOrelie, aside from moves was completely fine. But then with Bruno, he's gotta drop both those Onix, they are free kills. Give him Primeape AND Poliwrath. Agetha and Lance though need TYPE changes. I'll start Lance first. It was meme he's really a Flying-type elite 4 member, and in reality he is, so why not lean into it. he gets to keep Gyarados, Aerodactyl and Dragonite. But he needs to drop both Dragonairs for Charizard which is also Dragon-like and he's used it before, and replace the other with.... Scyther! Scyther was used by NOBODY and it would throw the player off balance expecting a gyarados lead. Next we got Agatha. Tell me WHY make a Ghost-type Elite 4 with only 1 fully evolved Ghost-type? I'm changing her type, to NORMAL! Her team is: Kangaskhan, Chansey, Clefable, Tauros and Snorlax as her ace!

It's worth mentioning that for Lorelei the Blizzard+Hail combo does not work, as it didn't gain perfect accuracy in Hail until Gen 4

we need a rom hack of this

In terms of Agatha, i think Tentacruel can work for her as well instead of Hypno. Tentacruel also has cruel in the name and according to the Pokedex in FireRed, the tentacles caus poison and pain, perfectly in line with Agatha's theming. You can also replace the first Gengar for Tentacruel. Koga didn't have Tentacruel for example, so using Tentacruel over Hypno also prevents overlap with Sabrina. I mean... you can potentially replace Exeggutor for Blue and replace Lance's Dragonair with said Exeggutor to reference the Alola games, where it is implied Alolan Exeggutor is actually the original. I would keep Rock Tomb over Rock Slide for speed control, which is totally something Blue would do. Why not give Blue's Charizard Steel Wing instead, so it doesn't overlap 3 moves with Lance's Charizard.

Nightmare on gengar is pointless - the second it attacks the opponent will wake up. If anything, I would make the first gengar have substitute, nightmare, hypnosis, confuse ray (or protect), and give it leftovers. That way it can take advantage of nightmare ko-ing in 4 - 5 hits and stalls with recovery. Confuse ray can help it get set back up in case they wake up, or protect just for an additional turn of leftovers. Also, since ghost is physical in gen 3 both gengars don't get to utilize their high special attack for it. Although, it's a decent choice for hypno since his attack and special attack are equal.

I feel like Dragon Dance on both Lances Dragonite and Blues Gyarados are waisted. Dragonite has Thunder Wave to get faster than its opponents and powering up a move like Fly is not worth it at all. I think it would suit better to give it something to deal with ice/water types. And Blues Gyarados can only power up thrash but has no chance to live a single electric attack. Why not give it Earthquake? That would make it way more interesting to work beat it imo

1:54 If this is for FRLG, Blizzard doesn't work with Hail this way in generation 3. Blizzard doesn't have the guaranteed hit in hail until generation 4.

I love this idea. It would be cool if it was a rom hack

I think that Seadra could be a good option instead of Charizard, so player don't have to fight 2 Charizards in a row and also Seadra in gen2 evolves in Kingdra becoming a Dragon Type pokemon

Also being that Lance was the Champion like 2 mins ago before we rolled through the door and Blue/Gary beat him. He should have had a 6th team member added imo. Maybe a ….. Seadra or even a Kingdra if available as a nod to his cousin Claire?

the only thing I would change is having air cutter or keeping aerial ace for flying type pokemons. fly is too exploitable and while being higher base damage, it would do less damage overall than if they used aerial ace/air cutter 2 times in a row, but the pokemons added to the teams with no options were very cool

Weird to read, but I think Hail doesn't make Blizzard 100% accuarated in Gen III

So in gen 3 you can have a charizard with metal claw without tm involvement has it is in charmeleon learn set.

But what if since Machamp had Guts that you gave it Facade instead 👀 And for Lance, there was a missed opportunity to give him Seadra which was added to his team in Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee Steel Wing on Pidgeot would be interesting too, it can be learned by TM or it could be an egg move

I would love to play this when it's done, the hack rom

Bird Keeper Lance should have an all Flying Team.. Replace his Dragonair for a Zapdos or something.... 😅
