Raichu or Jolteon for a FireRed playthrough?

I have a Lv. 2 Pikachu I got from Viridian Forest while trying to catch 10 species as requested by Oak’s Aide, and recently received an Eevee in Celadon. I just bought a Thunderstone from Celadon Dept. Store.

So which should I raise? I really had some trouble with Green’s Gyarados.

Rest of the team (not including the Eevee) :

Cabbage - lv. 28 Ivysaur (F)Cereal - lv. 26 Nidorino (M)Shima - lv. 28 Clefairy (F)Burning - lv. 18 Growlithe (M)

Raichu:

Jolteon:

If you just want to hit Water or Flying types hard, then Jolteon is your best bet. Raichu’s physical moves as well as Thunderbolt, can hit hard against most of the opponents.

Raichu @ anythingAbility: Static- Thunderbolt- Iron Tail- Brick Break- Body Slam / Double Edge / Thief / Light Screen

Jolteon @ anythingAbility: Volt Absorb- Thunderbolt- Bite- Thunder- (anything)

Hope this helps :)

Raichu is a better option than Jolteon.Raichu has a great Special Attack and Speed. It also has a decent movepool.Here’s a moveset:Raichu @ MagnetAbility: StaticMoveset:ThunderboltBrick BreakThief/ Iron Tail/ Reflect/ Light ScreenThunder WaveP.S. I know that this is old. Sorry.
