Tangela has awesome Defense and a great Special stat, so its barrage of Grass-type attacks can do some solid damage. Granted, Grass attacks aren't usually the best, but with Sleep Powder and Stun Spore in there (which don't do any actual damage), you really only need one Grasser that DOES do damage.
But there are two main reasons why Tangela is this high up on the list. #1 is that it's only a Grass-type. I'm fairly confident every other Grass-type in Generation I has another type, and it's usually Poison. That only offers up a few more weaknesses, which is no good.
The second reason is Tangela looks like spaghetti, and spaghetti is delicious. Its feet even look like little meatballs. Of course, if my spaghetti was this color, I'd be freaked out. But it's not, so win-win!
