remember these
http://i.imgur.com/OsbZJ.jpg- hitmonlee should be packing HJK but it's 2nd fastest of the kanto fighting types - this was back when karate chop had to be normal typed in the game with the most broken crit formula, and fighting type moves were butt
- muk is better as far as mono poison types went, but psychics were the master race in gen I
- rhydon was better because you didn't need to trade for it
- aerodactyl worked - only best stab move was freaking sky attack, no rock moves whatsoever, but had speed on par with mewtwo for working with the best iteration of hyper beam in pokemon history
- gen I mewtwo was god, to where serious competitive circuits began banning it, so alakazam took it's place there
- parasect's only use was a capture aid w/ spore in the gold ol' days before false swipe, and that's if you chose not to clone a supply of master balls with missingno
bugs sucked chunky nuts in gen I and the thought of using them for any serious battles would be laughed hard at even today, mewtwo annihilates them before any of them hope to touch it, this was and is common knowledge, your only hopes against the eldritch product of science was basically electrode or jolteon paralyzing it with twave, coupled with chansey and pin missile jolteon and praying that you'll take it down before it manages to get an amnesia in
