What size generator is needed to supply 200 amps at 240 volts 3 phase w/neutral and what type of cable from Gen to panel?
more detail on the load is needed. To start with do you have actual 200 amps of load or just are supplying a feeder/circuit that was designed for 200 amp maximum but actual load is something less? Power factor of the load, the starting surge of motors or other items that have similar surge current may be a factor in determining what generator is better suited for the application.

Otherwise as said use Ohm's law and you will get yourself into a fairly general place to start with.
