Here are the team of Pokémon in this video, which was decided by the random number generator.
P1 Team: Gengar, Furret, Dratini, Sandshrew, Caterpie, Weepinbell
CPU Team: Ariados, Golem, Vulpix, Machamp, Spinarak, Dugtrio

Then, I will list the moves for each Pokémon in battle, starting with my team.
Gengar: Night Shade, Thief, Nightmare, Hypnosis
Furret: Strength, Ice Punch, ThunderPunch, Amnesia
Dratini: Outrage, Headbutt, Safeguard, Thunder Wave
Sandshrew: Earthquake, Slash, Fury Cutter, Sandstorm
Caterpie: Tackle, String Shot
Weepinbell: Razor Leaf, Sludge Bomb, Stun Spore, Growth

The CPU's team of Pokémon and moves.
Ariados: Sludge Bomb, Protect, Toxic, Spider Web
Golem: Magnitude, Rock Throw, Rock Smash, Harden
Vulpix: Flamethrower, Dig, Confuse Ray, Sunny Day
Machamp: Submission, Fire Punch, ThunderPunch, Scary Face
Spinarak: Sludge Bomb, Leech Life, Dig, Night Shade
Dugtrio: Magnitude, Slash, Attract, Curse

This is the first time in any Pokémon Stadium Free Battle videos, that includes the first Pokémon Stadium, where the order of Pokémon selected for this battle is the order of the team from top left to the lower right, and I randomize the list every time to decide my team.
Vulpix was the lead on the opponent's side, and Sandshrew didn't prove to be a good switch in, I was expecting it to use Dig, as I had Gengar to lead the fight. I then had to switch to Dratini and use Safeguard and Outrage, and back then, when a Pokémon would get confused after using Outrage, if Safeguard is in effect, the Pokémon will not be confused, which is the one thing I like about this Dratini, and it even has Thunder Wave to help with paralysis on opponents.
At least we get a Caterpie take out a Pokémon on the opposing side, I wanted to have that happen in at least one Pokémon Stadium Free Battle video, and did it pay off in the end, because usually I see Caterpie as more of a Pokémon that can switch in just to be taken out, or use String Shot to lower the Speed of the opponent if I need to.
I didn't have many good options for Golem, even if I have Weepinbell, I wanted to try and save it for Dugtrio, because there is the random chance of Golem's Magnitude, and if it got Magnitude 10, which is 150 power, that can deal massive damage, and I found myself relying on Furret's Ice Punch to take on Golem.
Gengar's strategy is Hypnosis and Nightmare, and it has Night Shade to deal fixed damage while Nightmare takes effect while the opponent is asleep, its best match up is against Ariados because of its resistance to Sludge Bomb and it cannot be poisoned from Toxic. Ariados's set is the Toxic and Protect stall strategy, and it can use Spider Web to prevent the opponent from switching out, its pre-evolved form Spinarak has all attacking moves, and it has Night Shade and Dig, at least it has a way to deal with Poison-types that its evolved form cannot.
