Here are the team of Pokémon in this video, which was decided by the random number generator.
P1 Team: Weezing, Pidgey, Magby, Starmie, Forretress, Qwilfish
CPU Team: Totodile, Cubone, Ursaring, Bayleef, Steelix, Yanma

Then, I will list the moves for each Pokémon in battle, starting with my team.
Weezing: Sludge, Zap Cannon, Selfdestruct, Haze
Pidgey: Fly, Return, Steel Wing, Sand-Attack
Magby: Flamethrower, Iron Tail, Confuse Ray, Sunny Day
Starmie: Waterfall, Zap Cannon, Rapid Spin, Harden
Forretress: Strength, Rollout, Sandstorm, Spikes
Qwilfish: Sludge Bomb, Hydro Pump, Pin Missile, Minimize

The CPU's team of Pokémon and moves.
Totodile: Surf, Blizzard, Slash, Screech
Cubone: Bonemerang, Headbutt, Icy Wind, Focus Energy
Ursaring: Dig, Fire Punch, Snore, Rest
Bayleef: Razor Leaf, Body Slam, Safeguard, Synthesis
Steelix: Iron Tail, Mud-Slap, Rock Throw, Sandstorm
Yanma: Giga Drain, Headbutt, Swagger, Double Team

This is another battle where the CPU has Pokémon of many different types, well there are two Ground-types, and I have two Water-type Pokémon. Steelix was the lead, and this was the one I wanted to have lead, as Starmie was my lead, and even though I do have Magby, Starmie has the better matchup, the rest of the team don't have a reliable way to deal damage against Steelix, as it has a very high Defense stat.
Forretress's main role is to set up Spikes, and back then, you can only set up one layer of Spikes, not three like in the more recent generations, and the best time to use Forretress is against Bayleef or Yanma, as it resists their attacks, and this was when I realized that even if Magby does have the advantage againsy Bayleef, it cannot switch in on Body Slam due to the paralysis chance, and Magby not being the most defensive Pokémon there is.
Weezing is one of the Pokémon that has Selfdestruct, and this is the better switch in to Bayleef, and I can use Selfdestruct if I need to deal heavy damage to remove one of their Pokémon. I do have Qwilfish for a backup, and it does very well against Totodile, and I do have Pidgey to switch in on Ursaring's Dig and then use Sand-Attack to weaken its accuracy. Starmie is there for backup if I need to use it, its other use is against Cubone, and the other use with Forretress is Rollout to take out Yanma, and its Sandstorm can help deal some damage at the end of each turn against the CPU.
