Some Pokemon on your list also were released as basic Pokemon in the 2001 VS set:
– Granbull https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Chuck%27s_Granbull_(VS_37)
– Slowking https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Will%27s_Slowking_(VS_77)
– Dodrio https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Falkner%27s_Dodrio_(VS_4)
– Typhlosion https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Blaine%27s_Typhlosion_(VS_70)
