Team Rocket is still reeling from its crushing defeat in Saffron City, which gives you a chance to resume your original quest: to become the greatest Pokémon trainer ever. You can start by visiting the Safari Zone here in Fuchsia City. The Safari Zone is home to many Pokémon species that aren't found elsewhere, so keep coming back until you've caught the rare ones!
A lot of trainers here are packing Psychic Pokémon, so bring a Bug-type (Parasect is good) or strong, speedy fighters to finish them quickly. The ninja master himself will send out two Koffing, a Muk, and a Weezing in the Red and Blue version, and challengers with the Yellow version will find themselves face-to-face with three high-level Venonat and a Venomoth.
Poison Pokémon are good here, since they can't be affected by Poison themselves. Ground is always strong against Poison themselves, and Psychic is great in Blue and Red, but not as good in Yellow, where the half-psychic Venonats will give them problems. Yellow players should use Flying and Fire.
If you defeat the poisonous lot of Koga's Pokémon, victory earns you the Soul Badge and TM 06, containing Toxic, the one useful Poison skill. The Soul Badge boosts the Defense rating of all your Pokémon.
