Oh no, I restarted cuz I couldn't be arsed to go through, find my save file, and load it onto my usb hard drive of stuff to transfer over. Plus, this team is working out way better for me anyways. I hadn't even run into a bidoof during my first runthrough cuz always playing at night, so there's that. Although that does remind me that I've yet to run into any ekans this time around. And instead of having to train a zubat from scratch and try to use it to confuse before it dies at Julia's gym, I caught a nice lvl 17 one after getting cut.
strhally3's team(s) give me hope for even more fun pokemon to play with later as I hit level caps.
