Seriously doing one on Fire Red and I've got 3 Rattatas, 2 weedles, 2 Spearow, 2 Pidgey and 2 Meowth. I get nothing decent lol.
Current team is Fearow, Charmeleon and Gyarados (from Mt moon poke center). I just lost Geodude to Digging a Graveler with Magnitude. How silly.
There's no real need to play Sun before Ultra Sun etc. The games are very similar. You won't miss out on anything from Sun that you need to know in Ultra Sun.
There's been quite a few changes between Generations though so you're best to read up on them.
I've enjoyed Battle Tree. I find that you need to adjust your style slightly as only 3 pokemon means you spam attacks more and need wider coverage. I was using Greninja but it was pretty useless as couldn't take hits very well.
Currently using:
Crobat - Inner Focus - Sharp Beak
Taunt
U-Turn...
I found using Lycanroc and Zorua a bit too samey. A lot on your team learn similar moves. You could diversify that way, although I'm not sure with what. There's quite a lot learning dark moves on there.
I had the reverse problem where I had work and couldn't level up at 5pm. I managed to take my break early and rare candied from Level 24. Very annoying timescale.
I've taken my time. I had a habit of leaving the game on and going off to do stuff. I'm just up to Sophocles' trial now. I like to explore after I get Lapras and Tauros etc so I go back to old areas.
I'm pretty pleased with my levels right now, not over-levelled but certainly not making things...
