Here are the team of Pokémon in this video, which was decided by the random number generator.
P1 Team: Shuckle, Pichu, Tauros, Heracross, Ledian, Hitmontop
CPU Team: Weepinbell, Abra, Gengar, Croconaw, Yanma, Bayleef

Then, I will list the moves for each Pokémon in battle, starting with my team.
Shuckle: Sludge Bomb, Rollout, Bide, Sandstorm
Pichu: Thunder, Headbutt, Attract, Sweet Kiss
Tauros: Take Down, Pursuit, Rock Smash, Scary Face
Heracross: Megahorn, Rock Smash, Thief, Leer
Ledian: Giga Drain, Dig, Hyper Beam, Supersonic
Hitmontop: Triple Kick, Strength, Focus Energy, Counter

The CPU's team of Pokémon and moves.
Weepinbell: Razor Leaf, Sludge Bomb, Stun Spore, Growth
Abra: Psychic, Ice Punch, Swagger, Attract
Gengar: Night Shade, Thief, Nightmare, Hypnosis
Croconaw: Hydro Pump, Ice Punch, Slash, Scary Face
Yanma: Giga Drain, Headbutt, Swagger, Double Team
Bayleef: Razor Leaf, Body Slam, Safeguard, Synthesis

To start off the battle, I get Heracross as my lead, and while it has a good advantage against most of the CPU Pokémon due to Megahorn's high power, but the CPU lead was Gengar, which resists Bug-type moves. The only choice that I had was to switch Tauros in, as it not only was immune to Gengar's Night Shade, but the downside is that none of Tauros's best moves can do anything to Gengar, the best I can do is use Scary Face to lower its Speed and deal some damage with Pursuit, but as the CPU never switches out in Free Battle, as this isn't Stadium Mode where the AI will switch out a lot, Pursuit isn't as effective in Free Battle.
I decided to make the switch to Ledian as I didn't want Tauros to go down against Gengar, and Ledian does have Dig to deal super effective damage. The only other Pokémon that I might need Tauros for it against Abra, not only because Tauros is faster, but also because Abra has very low Defense.
To fight Bayleef, the best option is Heracross's Megahorn, as not many of my other Pokémon can do much against it, and I do have Pichu for its type advantage against Croconaw, but the tricky part is switching it as Pichu is not that defensive, and there is depending on Thunder connecting. Hitmontop is there to use Counter to take out a Pokémon, and the only one on the CPU likely to use a physical attack against it is Weepinbell with Sludge Bomb, Yanma does have Headbutt, but it is not a move I would rely on use Counter against as there is the flinch chance.
Shuckle is mainly there to weaken opponents with the damage from Sandstorm, as well as the poison chance from Sludge Bomb, but its Rollout is there to take out Yanma when that comes in, otherwise I do have Pichu to get in a hit with Thunder.
