* {{p|Bulbasaur}} is perfect for beginners. It can easily mop up Pokémon in the {{gy|Pewter}}, {{gy|Cerulean}}, and {{gy|Viridian}} Gyms, and resists the Pokémon in the {{gy|Vermilion}} and {{gy|Celadon}} Gyms. It is also unaffected by the {{status|Poison}} status ailment. It may have trouble with the {{gy|Saffron}} and {{gy|Cinnabar}} Gyms, but at that point in the game you should have some great Pokémon to back it up. Bulbasaur's final form, {{p|Venusaur}}, is capable of learning {{m|Earthquake}}, a useful move when facing {{type|Fire}} Pokémon.

Bulbasaur's final form, {{p|Venusaur}}, is capable of learning {{m|Earthquake}}, a useful move when facing {{type|Fire}} Pokémon. Due to Sludge Bomb being unobtainable until post Elite 4, Venusaur will only have Grass type moves for STAB.
* {{p|Charmander}} is the most difficult Pokémon for beginners to use, since it will be at a disadvantage early on. However, it learns {{m|Metal Claw}} on level 13, which gives it a fighting chance at the [[Pewter Gym]]. Adding to this, its disadvantages are done with after the Cerulean Gym. While Charmander's only real advantage is at the [[Celadon Gym]], you will still be able to deal with the remaining Gyms fairly well. Its final evolution, {{p|Charizard}}, is noted for being quite powerful, and is capable of learning {{m|Earthquake}} to deal with its {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Electric}} weaknesses.

* {{p|Squirtle}} is the second-easiest for beginners. It can defeat the Pewter, Cinnabar, and Viridian Gyms without much effort, but can do little against the {{gy|Vermilion}} and {{gy|Celadon}} Gyms. Its movepool is relatively limited, and it may have trouble against the other {{type|Water}} Pokémon in the [[Cerulean Gym]]. Squirtle's final evolution, {{p|Blastoise}}, is capable of learning {{t|Ice}} and {{t|Ground}} moves like {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Earthquake}} to cover its weaknesses.
