Not including legendaries makes it exceptionally difficult to pick one. All Pokemon have strengths and weaknesses.

However, since Dragonite isn't exactly a legendary, I'd be tempted to pick it. A good moveset for Dragonite - Dragon Dance, Rock Slide, Earthquake, Dragon Claw.

Charizard, Gengar, Gyarados and Venusaur are four other notably powerful or useful Pokemon.

cleo is the best

yes all pokemons best only

A useful starter is squirtle, because it's the easiest to do a solo run with while using HM slaves. imo.
Michael answered:

I would have to say that the Strongest Non-Legendary Pokemon is Dragonite.

I would personally recommend this Moveset:

Earthquake
Outrage
Hyper Beam
Brick Break

This Moveset is basically Offensive. I think you could put good use to it.

Hope this helps!

Dragonite with these moves:

Thunder/thunderbolt(depends if you have already used thunder or not)
Flamethrower
Blizzard
Outrage
CoolBeans said: 1st Jun 2019 | REPORT
I personally don't like hyper beam, and if you're planning on using outrage, I'd pair it with substitute (debatable). And yeah the above moveset is quite nice. You can also use dragon claw before you fight e4, or ice beam if you don't like running out of pp.
Guest answered:

My answer is lapras the moves should be ice beam, perish song, Surf, and blizzard

Guest said: 31st Oct 2011 | REPORT
come on, lapras, that cant even take out an electrabuzz of the same level when my venusaur took out rival's charizard and perish song is 100% useless without a haunter with mean look.

Same
Guest said: 26th Aug 2017 | REPORT
Well, I have a Vaporeon with a moveset of Quick Attack, Aurora Beam, Surf, and Water Pulse. It is a really really good pokemon. also if you have it hold a Mystic Water or an Amulet Coin, it gets even better. hope this helped, but starter OP.
Guest answered:

All of the starters are incredibly strong and so is snorlax...
That guy is a tank.
Best moveset for snorlax would be
Rest
Sleep talk
Hyper beam
Surf

CoolBeans said: 1st Jun 2019 | REPORT
yeah agreed, snorlax is surprisingly tanky... dunno if snorlax already has 'leftovers' as held item, but i'd have it as its held item.
Guest answered:

The right answer would be to have a team.the correct team is:JOLTEON Charizard TYRANITAR SNORLAX Mewtwo and Articuno

JOLTEON:thunder,dobble kick,shock wave,your choice
Give eevee thunder stone

Charizard:Fly,blast burn,fire blast,your choice
Starter

Mewtwo:psychic,ice beam,recover,your choice
Catch in Cerulean Cave

Articuno:ice beam,Fly,your choice,your choice
Catch in Icefall Cave

SNORELAX:rest,yawn,sleep talk,hyper beam
Catch on roads/WARNING there are only two SNORELAXs to catch

TYRANITAR:earthquake,crunch,rockslide,your choice

KEY: your choice= you choose a move
line after Pokemon and moves=where to get it

hopes this helps

Um definately the strongest Pokemon in the game (no legendary) would have to be Charizard. I mean his max stats are one of the best.he's with you though out the game so hes like real strong when you get to the elite 4 he can Fly and use Strength and ofcourse flamethrower so hes to me the best. And the best team to have which I am currently using is Mewtwo,Entei,Articuno,Zapdos,Moltres,venasaur.(btw mine are all at 100)so I went and pulverized the elite 4 the second time around.

Lmao my venusaur took out rival charizard
CoolBeans said: 1st Jun 2019 | REPORT
lol any pokemon at lvl 100 is strong. and charizard doesn't have max stats. i dunno what you even mean by that, no pokemon has max stats.
Guest said: 30th Nov 2020 | REPORT
lol true
Guest answered:

I would have to say dragonite defiantly because mine is lvl 100 and has hyper beam, wAter pulse, wing attack and Rock Smash which I absolutely destroyed the elete four with just him so defiantly dragonite

Guest answered:

I think the strongest Pokemon is tyranitar.
Move set:
Earthquake, hyperbeam, thunder bolt, crunch.
Also, if not tyranitar,
Blastoise is great too..
Move set:
Hydropump, hydrocanon, earthquake,
Ice beam.

CoolBeans said: 1st Jun 2019 | REPORT
I'm not sure about having both hydropump and hydrocannon. I personally don't really like moves that need recharge, and I just stay away from moves with 5pp. So I'd have surf, earthquake, ice beam and bite. Bite surprisingly has its uses.
Guest answered:

All my personal opinion including the newer Pokemon is Charizard of course all beginners Pokemon are strong

Guest answered:

The best is Charizard since he has strong moves but including till diamond and pearl the best is infer nape and dragonite is also. Strong.

A jolteon can beat a charizard
Guest answered:

The best team in LG FR i'd say consists of a hypno/jynx, Dragonite, Electabuzz, Flareon/joleteon, and Zapdos. Other Pokemon I reccomend be anything with good HP. (snorlax, graveller, golem, chansey, wobbuffet)

Guest answered:

You're all wrong it's Slaking with a total stat of. 660 checked on bulbapedia

Guest said: 10th Feb 2016 | REPORT
But that thing wastes one turn after attacking so I wouldnt say hes of much use
Guest said: 29th Aug 2017 | REPORT
One turn is more than enough to KO almost anything ever. Try it out. Go for physical moves.
Guest answered:

The best possible non-legendary team is
1. Dragonite
2. Tyranitar
3. Machamp
4. Alakazam
5. Blastoise
6. Gengar

the best pokemon team for fire red i would say would be
1)tyranitar
2)dragonite
3)alakazam
4)pidgeot/arodacty
5)arcanine
6)jolteon
i have played every single pokemon game and the pokemon i have chosen for this team are really good and i hope this has helped you and if it hasnt i am very sorry i believe that it will so just good luck and have fun on your pokemon journey and if you have to pick a starter for fire red i would say that the best starter would most likely be venusaur because it is really good and the two first gyms are super easy with it and that should give you enough time to get other pokemon so ya and thank you for listening to what i have written here.
Guest answered:

Only looking at fire red and leaf green Pokemon it depends on whether you want special attackers physical attackers defenders that are used as slow killers or an overall stat overkill here's a list of my opinion for each:
SP Attacker:
Alakazam(Psychic/Shadow Ball/Shock Wave/Reflect)
Physical Attacker:
Tyranitar(Crunch/Thunder/Rock Slide/Earthquake)
Defender/Slow Killer:
Venusaur(Toxic/Leech Seed/Earthquake/Razor Leaf)
Stat Overkill:
Arcanine(Dig/Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Extremespeed)

Guest answered:

Arncaine Charizard polywrath gengar alakzam taranitar

Guest answered:

Blastoise
Jolteon
Dragonite
Niidoking
Lapras
Arcanine

Guest answered:

Well this is for me the best team or I could say two couse the other's are replacable in your choice

Charizard:
Move set:seismic toss.Flamethrower.Fire blast.outrage

Dragonite:
Move set:Ice beam.Outrage.Thunderbolt.Hyper beam

Rhydon:
Move set:Eartquake.Stomp.Mega punch.Strength

Snorlax:
Move set:Rest.Hyper beam.Ice punch.Body slam

Dewdong:
Move set:Icy wind.Blizzard.Surf.Aurora beam

Electrabuzz:
Move set:Thunder punch.Brick brake.Protect.Thunder bolt

And you could replace Electrabuzz for heracross and Somethings in the team for Tyranitar you can get them both at the seven islands

Guest answered:

Pre-beating the Elite Four - Definitely Dragonite. However Arcanine is amazing aswell.
Post-beating the Elite Four - Tyranitar.

And my team is lv 100 Articuno lv 73 raichu lv 69 primeape lv 61 parasect for reviving lv 76 Crobat and one slot for EXP share Pokemon to complete dex

Guest answered:

Personally the best tactical team is:

Mr mime( timid nature) really fast and with lots of sp def and sp attack learn him reflect to increase his bad defense, he can learn psychic light screen and magical leaf.

Jolteon: (modest nature) amazing Pokemon, really fast and with lots of sp attack and good sp def
Learn him thunder, thunderbolt thunder wave.
Arcanine: arcanine is awesome it has amazing base stat (555) furthermore it has amazing attack sp attack good hp, good speed and decent defenses.

Venasaur: ( modest nature) venasur is a really good Pokemon learn him sleep powder sunny day solar beam and synthesis.

Aerodactyl: (adamant nature) this Pokemon is twice as good as the Pokemon that people usually get( pidgeot) it's one of the fastest Pokemon of all and also has amazing attack and good hp, learn him earthquake rock slide ancient power and Fly.

Lapra: ( modest nature) lapras is one of the best water type Pokemon) it has amazing hp and good stats in general, he can lear good moves such as Surf ice beam blizzard hidropump etc.

Guest answered:

Best team by far (without starters) is Areodactyl, Marowak, Kingler, Parasect, Rapidash, and Pikachu/ Richu.

Areodactyl: Ancient Power, Fly, Crunch, and Giga Impact.

Marowak: Fissure, Bonemerang, Endeavor, and Smack Down.

Kingler: Guillotine, Crabhammer, Metal Claw, and Ice Beam.

Parasect: X-scissor, Cross Poison, Giga Drain, and Slash.

Rapidash: Fire Blast, Bounce, Poison Jab, and Megahorn.

Pikachu/ Richu: Electro Ball, Thunder/Thunderbolt (up to you), Quick Attack, and Iron Tail.

Areodactyl is your powerful flying pokemon. Marowak is your stratigic pokemon. Kingler is your Pokemon that sweeps through your enemys. Parasect is your Pokemon with a viriaty of moves. Rapidash is your speedy Pokemon that hoses through enemys. Pikachu/ Richu is here mainly because it only has one weakness, but because it is very speedy it can hit first (100% chance if you use Quick Attack) and with Iron Tail it can be devastating to Pokemon that are a threat, like Golem.

Hope this helped out! You now know what team to consider having next time you play. And this team intirely origanates from the Kanto! Good luck!

I come from a day and time where you played Pokémon for fun and you could only battle your friends. This team I have chosen is just a great fun powerful team for me to use even now more than 10 years after the release of this game.
Lv. 54 Charizard-Bashful 1.Flamethrower 2.Dragon Rage 3.Fly 4. Fire Blast
Lv. 57 Dragonite-Lonely 1.Outrage 2.Thunder wave (to catch Pokemon) 3.Brick Break 4.Waterfall (attack 221)
Lv. 55 Rhydon-Naughty 1.Rockblast(rock slide works too) 2.Earthquake 3. Double edge 4.Surf (filler, want megahorn) attack 204
Lv. 54 Gengar-serious(needed modest, too late) 1.shadow ball 2.Night shade 3.phychic 4. Dream eater (filler) (sp. Attack 183)
Lv. 55 Machamp-Serious (I want adamant, too late lol) 1. Brick Break 2.Cross Chop 3.Rock Tomb 4. Strength (attack 194)
Lv. 54 Alakazam-Modest 1.Phychic 2.Shock Wave 3.Psybeam 4. Hyper Beam (this monster has sp. Attack of 204!
I use this team for strictly enjoying the game, progression (HMs for a reason), probably don't want to try competitive play without modifying team or moves. I try not to be a nature nazi but having the right natures REALLY help!

Guest answered:

I only use a non legendary is HoundoomX

I use Pokemon is Arceus,HoondoomX,Mewtwo-Y,Rayquaza-X,Dialga and Yveltal

Guest answered:

Lapras as it has extremely high hp(398 at lvl 100) and massive damage. It can also destroy Dragon types with it's ice beam.

Guest answered:

Blastoise-hydro cannon, Surf, skullbash, ice beam/blizzard
Arcanine-flamethrower, extreme speed, fire blast, bite/crunch
Jolteon-thunderbolt, thunder, pin missle, shadow ball
Exeggutor-solar beam, sunny day, psychic, egg bomb
Dragonite-outrage, Fly, dragon claw/(any offensive)
Tauros-thrash, iron tail, earthquake, swagger

No legendary and no Trade-to-Evolve Pokemon

CoolBeans answered:

I'd say tyranitar, but since that's only available after you beat the game, I'd go with dragonite.

It's stats rivals that of Legendary Pokemon, and dratini you can get quite early in the game. You can't pass on dragonite. Although it looks like an obese dragon, it packs a punch with it's amazing stats (slow speed the only problem, but you should focus on leveling your dratini --> dragonair --> dragonite asap so it outlevels other Pokemon and speed won't be an issue) AND it can be versatile with it's ability to learn all the useful TM's. It can even learn nearly all the HM's (except Flash, which you really shouldn't use on a dragonite).

Some useful moves it can learn are: dragon claw (except steel types, no negative damage), thunderbolt/thunder (for water Pokemon that can use ice-type), earthquake, flamethrower, brick break and many more.

If you want dragonite to be versatile:
Flamethrower, thunderbolt, brick break, dragon claw.

A creative moveset I made up on dragonite is:
Substitute, focus punch, outrage, thunderbolt/dragon claw/brick break

And I usually go with 'leftovers' as held item and look for a dratini with mild/lonely nature.

Guest answered:
