Would Gengar be useful on my team in Gen One?

Sep. 16, 2017

My team is almost complete, except for one thing, my Haunter. I just need to evolve him, then my team is complete. But should I use him? Here my team:

Sandslash lvl 35: Cut, Poison Sting, Slash, and Dig.Dodrio lvl 35: Drill Peck, Tri Attack, Fly, and Fury Attack.Haunter lvl 26: Lick, Confuse Ray, Night Shade, and Toxic.Gyarados lvl 32: Thunderbolt, Double Edge, Ice Beam, and Dragon Rage.Nidoking lvl 35: Thrash, Rock Slide, Horn Drill, and Seismic Toss.and Venusaur lvl 39: Mega Drain, Body Slam, Razor Leaf, and Vine Whip.

So, should I use Gengar? Please tell me. Thank you, in advance.

I would strongly consider changing him for slowbro. Gengar has a very shoddy move pool which limits its excellent speed and special, whereas slowbro has access to amnesia, psychic, etc. So unless you’re planning on using TMs on your Gengar, I would suggest slowbro instead. Also, you should take off Dragon Rage for something else. Hope this helped, and have a nice day. ^^
