Solo Onix? I had to be level 100 for that one, albeit I didn't "EV" train properly and I used Rare Candies instead. So you could probably do it at a lower level with enough luck and a proper moveset.

It was one of the most fun runs I've ever done, though.

Do a full Ash run where you use his exact party for all major battles.

That means solo Haunter against Sabrina, btw

And to enter Erika's gym, you have to either play FR/LG as a girl or you have to play Pokemon Pink before you can enter as Ash.

You can't really EV train improperly in gens 1 & 2. Every stat can have max possible DVs and even if you hit lv100 you can still gain DVs just have to deposit the Pokemon in the pc and withdraw them.

Hypnosis luck would eventually secure the victory.

Right, but what's the actual cap for DVs? I guess I just assumed that by level 100, you'd have long exceeded them. So I typically just default to using Rare Candies after I can't take anymore vitamins.

Yeah, looks like it was intended to be Volcano so one next could have been intended to be Soul and the animators just colored it wrong.

Pure gen 1 has literally 6 bug lines. This is a problem with nearly any monotype run in gen 1 except like normal, flying, and poison.

65535 for each stat so unless grinded a lot of levels on low level Pokemon you probably didn't get close to maxing out. Trainers give a lot of exp so they cut your gains per level a lot.

Bug is one of the worst typings in generation 1, so I think it would definitely be fun.

Like, Leech Life only has base 20 power in that generation, and the only other Bug moves in the entire game are Pin Missile (which no Bug Pokemon actually learns) and Twineedle, which only Beedrill gets access to. This makes their "super effectiveness" to Psychic type Pokemon tenuous at best. They're also weak to many common typings in the game, like Fire, Flying, and Rock.

Is there anywhere I can find a list of how many Pokemon give specific DVs in gen 1? You know, like the currently extant one for EVs in later gens?

I like to do an Ash run, starters only with Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle.

And Alakazam because why the hell not.

And Mew via the Mew glitch to use as an HM slave (one of the Mews is the HM slave, the other is the real mew)

How about a no-STAB run? Basically, none of your Pokemon would be allowed to use damaging moves that are the same type as them and would get the same-type attack boost (STAB for short) so you have to rely on other coverage moves.

Plus, no matter which gen 1 game you play, one of those bugs isn't obtainable without trading or using using glitches. You can't get Pinsir in Red, Scyther in Blue, or the Weedle line in Yellow. That being said, I've actually completed this run myself (in Red, and I used a version of the Mew Glitch to catch Pinsir to have a full team) and it was actually pretty fun.
