My team for Silver is:

Typlosion
Noctowl
Lanturn
Umbreon
Exeggutor
Wigglytuff

What do you think?

get rid of Noctowl, it is the worst basic bird in the series so far.  Use a Crobat instead.  Wigglytuff is... okay I guess.  You can use it if you want to but there are way better normal types out there.  Lanturn is mediocre at best in-game, Umbreon is a really nice wall.  Exeggutor is also really good, as a wall, I wouldn't recommend it when you already have Umbreon, and Typhlosion is amazing.

I recommend rethinking your team building process

I was thinking, what about Haunter instead of Exeggutor?

Lanturn is good because that's one less pokemon that's weak to electric and can surf!

I wanted to try Noctowl!

I was going to have espeon, but I wanted Exeggutor, so....

Wigglytuff, don't ask!

Typhlosion, because I don't need totodile when I got Lanturn and I can't remember why I said no to Chikorita....

Don't do Noctowl, it's garbage in-game, Haunter is a good replacement for Exeggutor.  I won't stop you using Lanturn or Wigglytuff.  If you're going to use Haunter, swap Umbreon with Espeon, Dark and Ghost are almost the exact same in this gen.

What should I get that can learn fly instead of Noctowl?

Don't say Pidgey, got that in another game!

Only things I can legit get without trading or cheating!

Crobat.

I actually kind of recommend rethinking the half of you team that you aren't changing (Lanturn, Typhlosion, and Wigglytuff), you need lots of type variety, and the way your team is going, Red is going to get tons harder.  He's not that hard, all you really need is a good set of Pokemon and an okay idea of battling strategy.

I recommend Crobat, Steelix if you can get your hands on one (Sandslash if not), and Heracross.

I'll get Crobat. I could Dratini instead of Exeggutor and try and evolve it! Maybe Sandslash instead of Wigglytuff.... but then I got Typlosion... not a good combination!

What about Typhlosion, Crobat, Steelix if you can get our hands on one (Sandslash if not), Lanturn, Exeggutor, and  Umbreon?

Can't get Steelix! What about Heracross instead?

My team now (so far) is:

Typlosion
Crobat
Lanturn
Heracross?
Umbreon
Dragonite?

have you tried Tentacruel?

The name master

No (not properly anyway) but I want to, but it wouldn't be the best idea, having two Poison types (Crobat and Tentacruel)

Maybe in Fire Red/Leaf Green?

What I was thinking was this team setup:

Typhlosion
Tentacruel
Xatu
Magneton
Umbreon
Heracross

I was going to use magneton in fire red/leaf green (can't remember which)

Tbh, I prefer crobat than xatu! I just spent ages finding one and it's available way earlier!

My Leaf Green team is

Arbok
Rhydon
Vaporeon
Fearow
Hypno
Magneton

There is no problem with reusing good Pokemon.  Especially since you don't have many options.

That's fine too, so do I. We just can't have more than 1 of the same type.

I just have this thing about reusing pokemon I've already used (recently)

Is my Fire Red team OK?
