Yeah.
If you're going for badges, you'll want either Violet's and Cianwood's first or Celadon's and Saffron's. It'll take a lot of training either way, but Cianwood and Saffron's badges give you the machine that teaches pokemon to effectively carry passengers. Celadon or Violet's badge is needed to actually use it.
