Here are the team of Pokémon in this video, which was decided by the random number generator.
P1 Team: Sandshrew, Weezing, Magnemite, Mr. Mime, Machop, Starmie
CPU Team: Charmeleon, Scyther, Pidgeotto, Butterfree, Snorlax, Slowbro

Then, I will list the moves for each Pokémon in battle, starting with my team.
Sandshrew: Earthquake, Slash, Seismic Toss, Sand-Attack
Weezing: Sludge, Hyper Beam, Fire Blast, Selfdestruct
Magnemite: Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave, Supersonic, Double-Edge
Mr. Mime: Barrier, Psychic, Metronome, Seismic Toss
Machop: Submission, Rock Slide, Earthquake, Focus Energy
Starmie: Surf, Thunder, Swift, Harden

The CPU's team of Pokémon and moves.
Charmeleon: Flamethrower, Counter, Seismic Toss, Strength
Scyther: Slash, Wing Attack, Leer, Double Team
Pidgeotto: Fly, Quick Attack, Sand-Attack, Take Down
Butterfree: Psychic, Supersonic, Mega Drain, Stun Spore
Snorlax: Mega Kick, Rock Slide, Metronome, Rest
Slowbro: Surf, Psychic, Disable, Withdraw

It is really fitting that we get Snorlax in this battle, as Pokémon Sleep has just come out on Mobile devices, and it is a game about Snorlax. This isn't Pokémon Sleep, but I wanted to bring that up because of the appearance of the Pokémon it is themed after.
I can't remember if I went over this in an earlier Pokémon Stadium video, but back in this generation, Poison was super effective against Bug-type Pokémon, it was where I used Weezing's Sludge against Scyther, which was the CPU's lead Pokémon, while I got Sandshrew to start off the battle. There wasn't really much I needed Sandshrew for, so I had to use it to weaken Scyther before it goes down and have my other Pokémon finish it off.
The CPU does have three Flying-type Pokémon, two of which are Bug-type Pokémon, and I do have Starmie and Magnemite which have Electric-type moves to take on the Flying-type Pokémon, and I have Weezing's Selfdestruct to get in some damage on Snorlax, that way I can take it out with the next Pokémon, even if Machop does have the type advantage, it does have to watch out for Snorlax's Mega Kick, and Submission has 80% accuracy, there can be a chance it will miss.
While I do have Magnemite for the type advantage against four of the CPU Pokémon, I do have Thunder Wave to paralyze opponents if I need to, but as Magnemite is likely to defeat them in one or even two hits, there isn't really much need with Thunder Wave. Sometimes I don't tend to rely on type match-ups that often, it's only at the start of the battle is where they come to use, and when I see the battle hasn't past six minute, I like to try and get the other Pokémon in on the battle and have them take part, an example for this is Mr. Mime, where I like to use Metronome to see what moves I get if I am up against an opponent that cannot do much against Mr. Mime, or to pass time before then. There are some moves that do nothing, like Teleport, where in the main series games, Teleport was used to escape from Wild Pokémon battles, while Roar and Whirlwind were used to make Wild Pokémon flee instead of making the opponent switch out.
