I'm not gunna lie i bought this and i like it. i picked tepig because hes a tank in attack stats while snivy has high defese and osshwott is pretty even... only thing i dont like is i can't find that "perfect team"
Snivy's for speed, actually. Later on, you find that in competitive battles, you won't even use your starter as often as your other Pokemon, if you're even going to use it. Anyway, So far I have every single starter since the 1st gen on my Platinum. All that's left is to transfer it to White, then obtain Tepig and the otter.
I have both my Oshawott and Snivy evolved.. Not going to bother evolving them to their last stages. The last stages of the starters are very hideous-- not since Torchic and its final stage, Blaziken. Can't wait to get an everstone. I will need two though :/ My six Pokemon will be: -Dewott (have) -Servine (have) -Braviary -Klinklang -Darmanitan, or Victini -Accelgor Level 20s in the daycare area. EDIT: I would love to trade for someone's Rufflet. I can't get it until very late in the game.
^ you can press B to stop evolution. I'm sure you know that though. I'd love to have a Rufflet to since I'm playing Black and that means I don't get it at all. Anyways, I just beat the second gym. I'm going at an extremely slow pace I know but eh, its more fun that way. I still only have my starter pokemon since I plan my team from the beginning and I don't get my second and third member until the third gym city. Servine's been pretty good so far though.
I know.. I would much prefer the everstone. I can only obtain one in the game. I would trade you one but I can't get one until after the eighth gym It is the only reason why I got the White version.
Okay, I don't know the strengths and weaknesses of any of the new 156 Pokemon. Therefore, I can't build a stable team. My current competitive one is: Togekiss Electivire Swampert Blissey Dragonite Froslass/ Or one of the new Pokemon All EV trained, IV breeded, nature hunted.
That's a pretty good team you got there, mine is: Blaziken Amphorus Golem Gyrados Dusclops Alakazam Of course all EV trained and IV bred and nature hunted. The only small problem I see with that team is you have 2 normal types. Try replacing the Blissey or Togekiss with a grass type or something.
If anyone wants, I can update the first post with friend codes. So just start posting them I'll have to wait until I get the 3DS to get mine since I only have a WPA connection.
My awesome six are: -Pikachu -Sceptile -Donphan -Metagross -Cradily and the best pokemon ever....... Shedinja
If it works for you keep using it, I don't really know because I haven't used your team. It will be interesting to see how the new pokemon will fit into competitive teams.
Otherwise, I can interchange my teams to fit my opponent. But then I would have to research my opponent first. But then again, Blissey's a bit more common because it's in the OU and everyone knows how to counter it. Then again, there's a reason why everyone uses it... Highest HP stat out of every legit Pokemon. Annoying moves and support class.
Good idea. And I know everyone likes posting teams, maybe that could be a separate thread, maybe a discussion thread.
I'm picking up both games tomorrow.. yea.. I'm suprised how many people like pokemon on this forum.. I made a group btw, so people can exchance friend codes, set up trades etc.. http://forums.toucharcade.com/group.php?groupid=483&gmid=88915#gmessage88915
