Hey, DFuegoH. Thanks for your helpful videos. Do you have any footage of your teams battling the elite 4 in each game? Im having a hard time with black 2 and was wondering how you beat it.
nice video haha i had basically the same team but instead of vileplume i had vapeoreon for blues blastoise as it has water absorb for that hydro pump and would just bite making blastoise flinch and krabby as my HM slave
I did with Lapras! Unfortunately his ice typing makes the team weak against Lance and he does not contribute to the strategy needed to take down Blue. Vaporeon does not contribute to the strategy needed to defeat Blue either, which is why he isn't on the team as well
It's the question I posed at the beginning of my video! Figuring out what members work best is a complex problem, but as long as you evaluate potential members within that framework and in relation to the most difficult obstacles in the game, you can figure out your own answers.
I don't see a reason not to! It will be a while though before I make a video for that game if ever because I have to familiarize myself with the trainers and the choices available
I feel like raichu is better alternative to magneton, not only it's given earlier but overall his both offensive attack and special are good and speed control seems more important for charizard water weakeness
i used magikarp at mt moon for misty (wow i didnt realize i also helped myself with sabrina too, thank you definetly made me feel good about my pick)*edit, because of bite (garados lv 20) i wounder if i can learn an ice move with tm for grados**edit hope that helps, (doing my own run right now.) OOOOOHHHHHH MY GOD!!!!!! I WAS RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SO HAPPY***EDIT
I understand why Charizard gives you a rough road, but ive always considered it a trade off the rough start vs more potential in a endgame team. Please note that i dont switch out pokemon with the two exceptions of the one time usage of Flash and the additional required usage of Rock Smash they added on the Islands. For me a team needs Cut, Fly, Surf, Strength so that being said i see Charizard as the greatest Fire choice as he frees up a flexible spot where you would otherwise be using Fearow or Pidgeot (Dodrio is a flying type not an actual flyer get the f*ck outta here xD)
Honestly if I were gonna use a team just for fun I'd pick Charizard simply because I like his shiny. But yeah any team with him as the starter is difficult to use haha
@@DFuegoH Youre absolutely right there im not arguing that from the Gym Leader / Elite 4 perspective he offers the least but then i always have my most needed HMs incorporated into the team which makes a big difference in team building and ofcourse do take all trainers available so my team isnt as impressively underleveled to still get the task done as you did.
@@user-pakshibhithi10 In my opinion, it is Venusaur that belongs on the strongest team for Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen. However, if I were given a gameboy cartridge for Pokemon FireRed or LeafGreen, and only had to choose ONE starter for my team, it would be Charizard. Why? Because I think his shiny is the coolest of the three starters. In other words, if I had a gameboy cartridge where I could play Pokemon FireRed, I would make sure my whole team is shiny because it would be fun to have my whole team be shiny. That's what I mean by "I like his shiny." Hahaha
Lapras's ice type cancels out her resistance to fire types, and it also makes her weak to fighting types. Replacing Gyarados with Lapras would doom the team to lose to Bruno and Blue.
No idea! Natures are not that important when it comes to building strong teams. While looking out for the right natures would boost the team's strength, the value added is miniscule. So long as the members of the team mesh well together, the team will win against the obstacles in a pokemon game without the need to unnecessarily grind in between fights.
I get where you're coming from haha. But you wouldn't be able to appreciate why the other members belong to the strongest team without understanding Charizard's role in any team he's a part of
Can somebody explain why Charizard is hard to use in Fire Red ? Back when I was a kid I used to over level my Charizard and I didn't have much trouble.
@@vinmisanthrope9719 if you overlevel ANY decent pokemon, it is easy to beat a pokemon game. It is only when you DON'T grind your pokemon's levels (a KEY rule in my test playthroughs) that you see how viable a pokemon TRULY is. My analysis on Charizard's viability in this game is centered around that approach
@@DFuegoH I totally agree. I actually started playing Leaf Green and over-levelled my starter pokemon and it makes the game so boring. It hits different when you have 6 other pokemons that compliment each other to beat the game. Thank you for the response !

what about the natures?
Hey, DFuegoH. Thanks for your helpful videos. Do you have any footage of your teams battling the elite 4 in each game? Im having a hard time with black 2 and was wondering how you beat it.
I do! I’ll look for it and see if I can upload it to my DFuego Gameplay channel
nice video haha i had basically the same team but instead of vileplume i had vapeoreon for blues blastoise as it has water absorb for that hydro pump and would just bite making blastoise flinch
and krabby as my HM slave
Amazing video, did you try adding Lapras or Vaporeon to the team? Ice beam is nasty.
I did with Lapras! Unfortunately his ice typing makes the team weak against Lance and he does not contribute to the strategy needed to take down Blue. Vaporeon does not contribute to the strategy needed to defeat Blue either, which is why he isn't on the team as well
@@DFuegoH it’s so sad to me when you call a game fire red, have charizard on the title, & he barely beats any gyms/elite four trainers/Blue
I’m just now realizing why I couldn’t beat the game as a kid
Hey DFuego! You inspired me to make a best team for other games, but I don’t know how. Can you give a thought process behind it? Thank you!!!
It's the question I posed at the beginning of my video! Figuring out what members work best is a complex problem, but as long as you evaluate potential members within that framework and in relation to the most difficult obstacles in the game, you can figure out your own answers.
Ah thanks DFuego! You are amazing!
Do you make videos on fan games? If so can you try to do one for Pokemon Unbound?
I don't see a reason not to! It will be a while though before I make a video for that game if ever because I have to familiarize myself with the trainers and the choices available
@@DFuegoH that's great, I hope sometime you could.
I feel like raichu is better alternative to magneton, not only it's given earlier but overall his both offensive attack and special are good and speed control seems more important for charizard water weakeness
Man you really made a charizard team better than mystic umbreon
This comment made my day. I really appreciate it
Umbreon video feels little outdated as like he's still stuck to red mechanism more
will you do these for hacked versions too?
Yup! Definitely gonna look into rom hacks in the future
i used magikarp at mt moon for misty (wow i didnt realize i also helped myself with sabrina too, thank you definetly made me feel good about my pick)*edit, because of bite (garados lv 20) i wounder if i can learn an ice move with tm for grados**edit hope that helps, (doing my own run right now.)

If nobody got me I know Gyarados + Bulky normal + Magneton/Magnezone still got me 🙏

@@DFuegoH But, how can we get a shiny pokemon in fire red?
isnt lapras a better option for gyarados?

@@DFuegoH oh ok, thanks!
