I'm not sure how this game works (yet, My charmander is only lvl 11 :P). But can't I keep using my same pokémon? And level those up? Or how do these different zones work? You lose all your pokémon when you enter a new zone? When you beat Kanto's Elite 4 and choose to start Johto, all your Kanto Pokemon are locked in your PC until you get all 8 badges of the new region. So, you're pretty much forced to use the new Pokemon. Of course after you finish all 3 regions you can use any Pokemon you want. And the first generation has some (obviously not all) of the strongest Pokemon, so you will be good to go. Is there any place to see the pokémon that are considered strong? Planning on making a team like: Charizard, poliwrath, primeape (or hitmonlee/chan), nidoking - Haven't figured out the rest yet

Well, it's certainly doable when you complete the Kanto region. However, once you start both Johto and Hoenn you are forced to choose a starter from that region. You will also meet a lot more Pokemon that are native to that region so the original 151 might me a bit more scarce. I'm not sure how this game works (yet, My charmander is only lvl 11 :P).

EDIT: Mmmh, I guess with "finish" I mean - Defeat all the gyms etc. (Ofc not completing my pokédex) And If I'd want to PvP. Would I be able to compete with only the original 151? Or are there some OP pokémon from the next gens?

Do you think this is doable? I've only ever known the first gen pokémon. And purely through nostalgic feels - I would like to finish, and compete with only the original 151 pokémon. How much will I be hurting myself? And is it doable?
