Here are the team of Pokémon in this video, which was decided by the random number generator.
P1 Team: Raichu, Seel, Butterfree, Weedle, Nidoran♂, Bellsprout
CPU Team: Kangaskhan, Primeape, Victreebel, Hitmonlee, Gastly, Staryu

Then, I will list the moves for each Pokémon in battle, starting with my team.
Raichu: Thunder, Mega Kick, Thunder Wave, Flash
Seel: Ice Beam, Surf, Body Slam, Horn Drill
Butterfree: Psychic, Stun Spore, Mega Drain, Supersonic
Weedle: String Shot, Poison Sting
Nidoran♂: Blizzard, Thunderbolt, Body Slam, Focus Energy
Bellsprout: Razor Leaf, Stun Spore, Growth, Mega Drain

The CPU's team of Pokémon and moves.
Kangaskhan: Dizzy Punch, Thunderbolt, Rock Slide, Surf
Primeape: Fury Swipes, Screech, Rock Slide, Low Kick
Victreebel: SolarBeam, Slam, Acid, Reflect
Hitmonlee: Hi Jump Kick, Seismic Toss, Mega Kick, Metronome
Gastly: Psychic, Dream Eater, Hypnosis, Confuse Ray
Staryu: Thunderbolt, Recover, Hydro Pump, Psychic

With the Pokémon selected, this one can be an even match-up based on the Pokémon, and there are even the odds of moves hitting, like sometimes a move missing in a very critical moment can turn the match around. I do like how Seel has both Body Slam and Horn Drill, which work well together, Body Slam has a 30% chance of inflicting paralysis, Nidoran♂ has that move as well. Body Slam cannot paralyze Normal-type Pokémon, this was something I didn't even know about until a year or two ago, it was when I watched False Swipe Gaming's Generation 1 Competitive Battle video where I first learned about this.
While Butterfree does have good match-ups with Psychic, four of the CPU Pokémon are weak to Psychic, there is Primeape's Rock Slide to watch out for, some moves, like Rock Slide, Dizzy Punch, and Tri Attack did not have any secondary effects back then.
As with the Rental Pokémon, there are some that stand out, Seel for the Body Slam and Horn Drill combo if it can get the paralysis off, while Raichu does have the powerful Thunder, it has a 70% chance of hitting the target, and with the Pokémon selected for the CPU, Staryu is one of the best if we are going by the moves it has, Hydro Pump, Thunderbolt, and Psychic look to be the best moves on a Staryu, so expect to see it do well anytime this Pokémon ever shows up during the Free Battle videos. Gastly has the combination of Hypnosis and Dream Eater, and Kangaskhan has very solid stats and access to some good moves, it won't be dealing some good damage with Thunderbolt and Surf as Kangaskhan does not have a good Special stat to make use of them. As for Pokémon appearances, I have decided every three battles, I did consider it to be every five battles, but as Pokémon Stadium only has 151 Pokémon in, I went with every three battles to allow the Pokémon to appear again in Free Battle.
