Pineco was first Pokémon sent out during the battle against Red so he can qualify to become a Gym Leader. It was easily defeated by Red's Saur.

Debut Forretress of Solitude
Pokémon Association's Forretress
Forretress (×2)
Forretress was sent out when the first Pineco was defeated. It was easily beaten by Saur's Vine Whip. The other Forretress was sent out after the second Pineco was defeated. Red switched his Saur to his Snorlax, Snor. Snor took damage when it was sent out due to the effects of Spikes. Snor used a combo to increase its stats and took out Forretress with a Mega Punch.

Forretress's only known move is Spikes.

Debut Forretress of Solitude
Pokémon Association's Azumarill
Azumarill
Azumarill was sent out after both of the Pineco and Forretress were defeated. It started things off with Whirlpool. The attack made Red's legs numb as the water was very cold and it was similar to the time he was frozen. While the arena was flooded, Snor used Rest to recover from the damage it had taken. As the water had disappeared, Azumarill was taken out by Snor's Mega Kick.

Azumarill's only known move is Whirlpool.

Debut Forretress of Solitude

Escaped

Norman's Rayquaza
Rayquaza
Rayquaza was temporarily under the Pokémon Association's possession at the Mossdeep Space Center. As it, unlike Kyogre and Groudon, lacked an Orb which could be used to control it, the Association attempted to study the Sky High Pokémon in order to create an artificial Orb to control it, but failed. Rayquaza soon escaped, and Norman, the Petalburg City Gym Leader candidate, was ordered to go after it. Despite Norman's best efforts, Rayquaza managed get away, and wasn't found again until the crisis with the two other legendary Pokémon had gotten underway five years later.
