3x flying lol. Your team is cool, but I can never justify charizard when arcanine is in the game (yes even pre physical/special split) and I cannot justify blastoise when starmie and gyarados are in the game.

Here is my current fav team. The usual rules: no legendaries, no trade evos, only Mons from your current region, set mode.

It's a very good team. I respect the use of Dragonite always.

Subjects are allowed on multiple boards as long as they are considered suitably relevant, this is true unless specifically stated (an example of this being specifically stated is /mlp/, see Rule 15 of the Global Rules "All pony/brony threads, images, Flashes, and avatars belong on /mlp/.")

Pokemon games can be discussed on /v/ because they're games, the Pokemon anime can be discussed on /a/ because it's an anime etc. This is the intended interpretation of the rules. There is no distinction in the rules stating otherwise and that's intentional.

>>735904336
The game corner slots all come down to timing, as long as you time it right you can hit it consistently. A trick I used was to tap my thumb whenever the 7 was about to hit and hit the A button at the same time, made it way easier for some reason

>>735904114
I'm more inclined to use legendaries now than I used to be because even fan games are scared of giving you access to them despite putting them on gym leader teams and shit. Kinda sick of having this cool Pokemon dangled in front of me on the promo art and title screen and then I barely get to fucking use it. If the game devs are worried about the game becoming too easy, they should buff the trainers accordingly instead of restricting access to the cool shit. IDGAF.

I remember dicking around with how open Kanto is and grabbing Zapdos before fighting Erika. Drill Pecking her gym was silly fun.
>>
>>735905068
even among non-box legends there's a ton of variance
on one hand you have dudes like regirock and mesprit that are straight up outclassed by regular mons, and on the other you have shit like azelf or terrakion that are crazy strong and trivialize the game
>>
>>735899113
Is this a nuzlocke? Everybody seems underleveled.

If you're talking about FRLG, it should be fine. Zapdos should take care of Lorelei and Bruno, anyone with Crunch/Psychic could take on Agatha, and Ice Beam kills most of Lance's team. The levels feel pretty low, especially since the enemies will be around Lv.60. So good luck.

>>735902827
Who even has Thunderbolt on that team? It looks like everybody is either water-weak, ice-weak, or just a water type themselves.
>>
>>735905451
Yeah, Zapdos may have survived power creep better than most mons, but it's still Palkia-tier good. Palkia has the same or better in every single stat value. It may not be keeping up with newer box legends but it is very much still banned like all the rest of them except Zamazenta

Snorlax over bumros
>>
>>735905950
It's not even powercreep, Zapdos is ridiculous in both gen 1 and 3.
Even playing the game 'correctly', you'll get Zapdos at level 50 after Koga but before Sabrina, and have like 10+ levels on everything while you stomp through the back half of the game.
Box legendaries you typically don't get until after the game is nearly done anyways. It's not like you have Rayquaza to help you take out Winona or Reshiram to help you with Clay.

It's been forever but I still remember my Silver team fondly
Typhlosion
Houndoom
Ampharos
Suicune
Lugia
Tyranitar

It was perfect for taking out Red which I enjoyed immensely
Tyranitar earthquake > Pikachu
Houndoom crunch > Espeon
Ampharos thunder > Blastoise
Typhlosion fire blast > Venusaur
Suicune hydro pump > Charizard
Lugia all in > Snorlax

Still one of my most kino childhood Pokemon memories.

>>735909580
Yeah, it's strange how there's not more fan stuff that simply aims to have everything from the official games, disables tedious bullshit like IVs/EVs, and makes battles somewhat more difficult but no high ladder mind game autism.

There's always shit missing (only a handful of fan games even include gen 9 mons at this point, and even less include Tera), there's always some OC fakemons or types or abilities or shit as if we don't already have enough to deal with in the main games and actually want to learn about some rando's fanfic ideas. I want OC when it comes to locations and quest design, not when it comes to gameplay. I wouldn't be playing a Pokemon fangame if I wanted to use fake Pokemon and made up battle systems

He'd have had Charmander up until Celadon city where he could finally get Eevee for Vaporeon. Then Snorlax after doing the game corner hideout and the Pokemon tower quest for Mr Fuji.

I know that there are a million Pokemon players that have their own preferences but I'll be honest with you man, "I despise nicknames" is a fascinating one to me. I can't think of a single reasonable reason to despise someone using the naming feature that has been in the game since the start and completely fits the tone of the series intention to have you get personally connected to the creatures.

To be clear, if you don't want to do it yourself that's 1000% fine. But you said you despise that others do it.

I wanted to make a good balance between her moveset from the webcomic and actually having the ability to fight everything in a practical sense without constantly running out of PP, hence having to teach Aerial Ace to deal with Ghosts. I could've used Flamethrower instead to be more lore accurate but I already had AA in my inventory and it felt appropriate enough, plus it was useful for Grass and Fighting. Also that's just a screenshot from immediately post E4 and Gary, I did obviously need an HM slave team to get through the game.

For real. I stopped playing the official games at Platinum, partly because of just how bad its regional dex is. Apart from the starters, box legends, Garchomp and the cross gen evos it has...uhhh... Toxicroak, I guess?

I genuinely have no real problem with any of that, except the lack of non poison grass types. Many of the water mons like Cloyster, Starmie, Slowbro and Gyarados all stand out in their own way and offer good options for any team.
You get good fossils, the safari zone has a wide selection, and most other types are decently covered if you want to use them.

This was literally my last team except with Snorlax instead of Tauros. Thick Club Marowak is unironically one of the funnest mons I ever used in a playthrough.

Anger point Tauros my beloved

I played both yellow and fire red growing up, it was much easier as a kid when I had infinite time and also didn't have any knowledge of what was good or bad.
Also, I did play romhacks too, and they at least give you exp boosts and fix the movesets so you aren't embering for 26 fucking levels.

>Who the hell has ever used a Wormadam?
I did. Turns out the nearly any other choice was better. Escavalier, Scizor, Mega Golisopod, and even Durant were better options. It could learn Rain Dance to try to lesson fire damage, but wasn't fast enough to use it before getting hit.

Why are you excluding the crossgens then autist?

You need a better point guard if you expect to beat Duke and win the championship.

always dump your starter

>>735899113
what are you 10? yeesh
>>
>>735899113
Aero, Snore and Nite are good.

-for Vapore and Zap
Legendaries for anything is lame and Vapore became coomer bait for some reason.

No comment on Zard.

my team in Crystal. Im going to Lake of Rage. I need the Fire Stone for Growlithe, where do i find it?
>>

>Why are you excluding the crossgens then autist?
Sinnoh did, until you beat the Elite 4. Just playing the games the way they were intended.

You really, really do not want to know the answer to that.

Disgusting.

>>735947312
Just gameshark it. Not cheating, its just some things to get are stupid and not waiting post-game for.

>>735949084
i knew in GS you get it at Bill's house after the league, but i tought in Crystal they changed this
>>
>I WANNA KNOW WHAT THE COOMERS ON /V/ THINK ABOUT...
Don't know what those cuck faggots think, but I know you're one also.

Apparently, Schoolboy Alan (Route 36) can randomly call you up and give you a Fire Stone. So not likely, but it's a lot better than waiting until Kanto to see one.

Because the Sun Stone is only available in post-game.
Justice is the main theme, Mori is there because Gigi, Nerissa is there because Liz.

>>735949863
all fine but I really hate electrode, such a dumb design
>>
>>735949863
Is this an Explosion team?
>>
>>735899113
Gen 1 teams just feel like that. Gen 1 and 4 I really struggle to make unique teams
>>
>>735947312
also, who should i put in team once i'll get Crobat? Pidgey is there only for Fly. I was thinking about Magneton or a Grass pokemon
>>
>>735951403
A ground type like Donphan should help round out the team, and give you an electric immunity. Water - Flying - Ground is a nice core and you have two weak to electric but no resists. Magneton or a Grass-type would as resists as well, but they can't necessarily do as much back in return.
>>
>>735951658
Damn, right, i forgot about Donphan, i even wanted to use it at the start of the run
