I am starting a new game of Fire Red. (the game I started about last week went horribad at about Silph Co, stupid venusaur/nidoking/hitmonlee/rattata/fearow)

I went with Squirtle and I have a Pidgey as well now. What other non-trade evolutions/non-legendaries should I go with? I'm considering picking up an Oddish/Gloom/Vileplume.

I need a new pokemon game though. Again, I complain on how outdated I am. : D

I only use one pokemon though out the game, and thats the starter

I used to do that back on RBY/GSC and Sapphire. Once I got around to playing Ruby/Fire Red/Pearl some time later, I changed to even-team "strategy".

Right now I'm considering:

Blastoise
Vileplume/Tangela/Parasect
Pidgeot/Aerodactyl
Jolteon/Electrode/Magneton
Marowak/Dugtrio/Rhydon
Hypno/Primeape/Tauros

I chose them. In order of how they are listed:

1. Starter.
2. Isn't that ugly and learns Solarbeam. I think.
3. Can take down other Flying-types and Rock-types.
4. Levitates. You don't ant a big Ground weakness, right? Also explodes. I think.
5. Is awesome and learns Bonemerang.
6. Dream Eater.

The best Pokemon in the world is mawile and I'm the only person on earth that thinks that but I don't care. Aipom is second, though.

Never in the history of ever has Magneton had the ability Levitate.

I'm getting more and more interested in Platinum. Convince me, internet.

Oh, whoops. I was distracted by the fact that its sprite floats in-game.

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense to me, either.

I like Zangoose. He's immune to poison. Poison is annoying as shit.

Oh, I almost forgot. Probably the main reason behind the lack of a full-fledged 3-D Pokemon game is that Pokemon games have a ridiculous amount of information crammed into them. Levels and stats for every Pokemon, various calculations, plus the usual programming of locales and sprites. This overload of information was a major snag in the Mystery Dungeon games, and probably would prevent a 3-D or a MMORPG Pokemon from ever being made.

It also might be some conservation of style. Pokemon games make good handhelds.
