Pokemon!

[Vephriel]

I'm fairly casual about my teams as well. I never quite got into the heavy stats/abilities/strategy focused playstyle (by which I mean the sort of best-in-slot mindset, I guess?). My teams usually end up with very little planning and a lot of spur of the moment bonding, but it seems to work out in the end.

[MaximumOverdrive]

Like others, I kinda start with a plan...then it gets thrown aside, mostly cause I usually don't pay attention to what pokemon are coming out (this is the first time I have) and find new pokemon I end up liking. The most I do is get a certain nature for them, then roll from there.

[Senna-Umbreon]

Why not Noctowl?

Ah, Noctowl could work. Although admittedly, I try not to re-use species too much for my main teams, and my SoulSilver team has a Noctowl. XD I am liking the idea of a Honchkrow, the more I think about it, though. I just hope its movepool isn't that bad in XY.


I usually try to plan out a team, mostly for the sake of the fact that my teams ALWAYS end up as characters of some sort, so I like to have an idea of what they're like before I get them in-game, and it saves me the trouble of figuring out a team as I go. I usually end up with a few other Pokemon that I like along the way though, as I sometimes catch other Pokemon to use while I'm waiting for my planned ones.

[Azunara]

I'm kind of in the air. I don't really plan my teams too much the first time around, just sort of picking up whatever is badass. I think the only set member of the team will be Sylveon, because as Lord of Eeveelutions I must use one. But other then that, I have no idea how it will go down. The second or third time around though, I usually pick pokemon I haven't used the first time and plan it out a lot more.

I hope they make more of these figures. Would kill for some Eevee love I mean a Eevee and it's Eeveelutions that I can put in badass poses? Hell yeah!. ;_; I only have Mewtwo XD

New Vivillon color...Garden Pattern

[Lupis]

Hoping on to the team train late, I tend to sort of haphazardly plan a team after I've already played for a bit and found a few pokémon I like. Then I use those few pokémon as the bare bones of my team, and I go on from there.

In other news, I saw some fan art of Chesnaught where it looked absolutely rabid and now I kind of like it. It's the armor-bound insane rampager of the pokémon world, in my eyes. xD

[Makoes]

I wonder if Vivillon's colors are based on where it evolves...

I really want that D-Arts Charizard!!! So awesome!!!

[Redith]

By the way I have been watching the Origins pokemon show..TAHT IS HAW YOU F***IN DO A POKEMON SHOW lol

[Silivren]

So I'm so excited for Saturday it isn't even funny. My boyfriend came up with this fun thing for us to do while we wait. Everyday we make up a team of Pokémon from each generation we would use in a team of 6. We cant use more than one legendary though as to not get too overpowered. Today was Gen 3. Tomorrow is 4. Gen 6 will end on Friday RIGHT before Pokémon comes out. It's actually REALLY fun and its nice going down memory lane.

[Magnakilro]

Mega Lucario's Possible Base Stats:

Hp: 70/ Att: 145/ Def: 70/ Sp Att.: 140/ Sp Def: 70/ Speed: 110-130

Phantump's entry

[Rhyela]

Awww, that Phantump entry is sad.

From all the reviews I've read the Charizard one is one of the best of the four. Him and Mewtwo. I have Mewtwo and can say it's a good figure. I think their humanish shapes help them out a lot.
