I think my first team was Venusaur, Dragonite, Alakazam (found a random person with a link cable), Raichu, Arcanine, and Gyarados, and that was the only team I ever went to level 100 with cause afterward I just wanted to restart constantly cause restarting Pokemon is one of life's great joys. And eventually after playing so many games I levitated to Pokemon with the highest stats and now that Fire Red team is my most nostalgic. I just wish I had two GBA's so I could get Alakazam and Scizzor. Scyther is great but definitely the weakest link in my team. Its just so ****ing cool though. Easily the coolest Pokemon of all-time.
Also Gyarados is the most overrated Pokemon ever. Yeah it's beast but it's a water type (a special attack-based type) with mediocre special attack but high regular attack even though it doesn't even have particularly good attack moves. That is stupid.

In later generations they fixed the stupidity of all moves of one type being physical or special, which helped make Gyarados vastly better since Dragon Dance+Waterfall+Earthquake+Filler is a nasty sweeper set. Even today with like 800+ Pokemon to choose from Gyarados is a powerful option competitively in the OU tier (basically the standard tier for competitive play, google “Smogon”).
Competitive Pokemon is pretty cool, and we have battle simulators where you can make any perfectly trained team you want which is great because screw training a whole competitive team up to lv 100 with perfect EVs/IVs manually
