Post your planned Z-A teams. Having trouble deciding which of these I want to use
I'm gonna use Mega Scizor since Scizor is my favorite coolmon and his mega is my favorite. Greninja is cool but I'm gonna be too lazy to use a save editor to bring him in unless he's the stone you get in the opening week.
>>58402278
>>58402278As I did in previous games with Megas, I'll have 6 pokemon that can Mega, probably focusing on new ones or ones that got better movepools.
>>58402278I just know that I'm gonna use>Tepig>Mareep>Bellsprout>Froakie>Sylveon>Beldum>Gallade>Dratini
I'm definitely going to have Skarmory and Starmie on my teamI might do Scrafty and FroslassI don't really like any of the startersAnd the last slot is whoever sticks I guess
Something like this probably. I've never used a Gardevoir.
heres my team
>>58402589Good taste my nigga. I might swap out Umbreon for a flying type but there's not many to choose from in this game.
Don't know if I want to continue playing because I'm fucking disappointed that Aurorus didn't get anything new.
>>58402627What were you expecting? It's notoriously one of the worst pokemon.
>>58402278I'm not getting this shit lol
>>58402657For it to not be treated like shit for fucking once?God fucking damn I hate Game Freak. They need the Kyoto Animation treatment.
>>58402680I know but specifically what could you even do to make it not shit? A mega that changes its shitty typing and a huge boost in speed power or bulk would still probably not be enough.
>>58402625>GogoatI actually used one when X and Y came out, it's pretty reliable and does what you want it to do. It's pretty underrated, and they gave it Leaf Blade like 10 levels earlier in this game so that's nice.
>>58402705Total Lucario Death?Whatever buckbreaks TPC.
>>58402278Definitely slim picking for me since I'm both trying to only use mons that I have both never used AND have new mega (or at least a mega I've never tried out).
>>58402719Yeah I tried focusing on Pokemon that don't really lean on their abilities to be good. Gogoat seems like he has a good movepool and reliable stats. Klefki is going to be hard to use without prankster though.
>>58402278Got the full image of all the returning Pokemon?
Wanna be able to mega evolve all my pokemon in my team
>>58402769
>>58402870Thank you
>>58402278All Box
Assuming the DLC Mega leak is fake or just until I can get my hands on them, replace the last two with Drampa and Metagross.
I've waited so long for Mega Altaria to return but I'm on the fence about giving Mega Dragonite a shot.
>>58402870Mega Mewtwo is in?I actually have a hacked perma mega mewtwo Y in my Home account and it's been there for 5 years. Never got banned for it, I feel like touching it is a bad omen so I'll just keep it there.
>>58403200I want to use Mega Dragonite but I'd basically be required to shiny hunt for it because it only looks good shiny.
>>58403397>mfw that is what I'll be doing for Furfrou
>>58402278Dang, not enough to make a full team of megas without Swampert (and Zygarde being locked to the endgame)
>>58402278Pretty lame i cant use mega chesnaught so im back and forth between barbaracle and falinks as a replacement. Has anyone figured out how long it takes to get the kalos starter megas or how long these seasons will be?
>>58402278>Gay ass flower dinosaur, faggy pink donut bug, great value brand mega gengar and le heckin voltron referencerinoVs>Ugly fat pig, ugly fat mole, ugly fat plant and tumor fairyThey're both shit
>>58402278Prob this, but there are a lot of mons that I like on this game.
>>58404375You have to be over 18 to be posting here.
I don't know where else to ask so, where do you find the elemental monkeys?
>>58404375Okay... which one is less shit then?
>>58402278Both solid teams, I’d lean toward the top one, myself. For me, it’s probably…>Meganium>Dragonite>Falinks>Starmie or Greninja>Froslass or Chandelure>Bug type? Probably Scizor>>58402365I believe Greninja’s mega stone is the opening season ranked reward
>>58402278Didn't want to bloat my team with megas and try new pokemon, but that's suprisingly difficult to do with this dex.Audino is a pokemon I had always just grinded against, but in a recent nuzlocke, I was actually suprised at how great it was until the end game. It really struggles to keep up, so more special attack and a potential supereffective stab is nice. This will also be the first time anyone has been able to use a Mega Audino in the main story, so it's effectively a new mega and will probably be my go to.I really love the stat direction of Mega Skarmory, but I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the color, so hopefully I can get a shiny. I've played through Hoenn a few times, but never managed to get one on my team, so it'll be nice to have.Glaceon competes with Sylveon and Espeon for my favorite eeveelution, but I think this could possibly be the first time that you're actually able to get it before the endgame (didn't play PLA yet so idk about that one).I absolutely adore the Venipede line, but I haven't picked up the Unova games since that adoration began. Each member is delightful in their own different ways. Since this will be a real time battle format, base speed is probably something that'll either be way overpowered or way underpowered (i think speedy mons were pretty bad in GO) and given the difference between Scolipede's base and mega forms, either way will allow me to find success. I can also be pretty dynamic about which I choose as there is not held item opportunity cost.I hated the monkeys when they came out, but I also kinda hated Klefki when it came out and yet it's one of my favorites when I stumbled upon it in USUM when I was looking for a new teammate. Maybe Simisear can have that change too.Meowstic is kinda shit, so unless it gets a major upgrade, I probably won't rely on it too much (but it can put in work unlike Delcatty or Delibird). It is however, very cute, so I think I'll let it tag along, though Furfrou is similarly cute...
>>58402278Meganium, Chandelure, Swampert, Altaria, Hawlucha, Barbaracle.
>>58402580Would have used Skarmory too because its my favorite new Mega but it is apparently very late game. Probably why it took so long to leak.
No real thoughts behind this. Just gonna roll with the gimmick.
>>58402278i can't wait for pkhex because the distributions among wild zones are fucking horrible
dedennediggersbypangoronoivernaegislashnow i just need one morei wonder if hisuian avalugg is available without transfers or trading
Before today I was genuinely considering buying a switch 2 to get za.All of the new mega designs are chopped or at best mediocre and from clips I've seen leaked on twitter the game looks like it runs like shit.Done with the franchise.
>>58406363Why he doing the nirvana album pose?
>>58402278anyone know where to resurrect fossils?
>>58406783Isn't there a fossil lab in Ambrette To-...oh, right.
>M Scolipede>Victreebel>Ariados>Garbodor>Dragalge>RoseradeI think these six, Gengar and Beedrill are the only poison types available in the game unless I missed something. Gonna assume the G-Slowbro line is gonna be locked behind Pokemon homo.
>>58402278>Meganium>Scolipede>Aurorus>Goodra>Kangaskhan or Lopunny>dunno yetI would them btw
>>58402278I'm not 100% sure.Probably, once I find my favorite mega, I'll build a suitable team around it.
>>58407024pidgeot is a based choice imo
>Meganium>Greninja>Pyroar>Skarmory>Eelektross>Dragalge
>>58407040Yea, among the Kanto megas it's the coolest
>>58402278I try to use something new everytime so I have no idea what I should use given the dex, but Greninja will definitely be in my team.
>>58407209
>>58407209>>58407219based varietychad
>>58407219Okay I still got some options I guess
>>58402278>Feraligatr>Chesnaught>Clefable>Excadrill>Froslass>HoundoomI can wait for Chesnaught’s stone, it’s still going on my team for the water coverage I’d lack without it (I had no water coverage except Tbolt on my Dragalge back when I first played Y, Siebold bodied me and I learned my lesson).>>58407513Even if most of the team doesn’t have Megas, you can still build something very solid with what’s left. Gallade and Scrafty are both great, plus you have a ton of Dragon types to choose from, and of course Aegislash as well.
>>58402278>Emboar>Delphox>Lopunny>Scolipede>Floette>Scrafty/Greninjaafter i get legendaries replace Scolipede and Greninja with Mewtwo and Zygardeafter DLC replacing Zygarde with Rayquaza
>>58402705Mega Aurorus with Slush Rush would be pretty good
A team of Waifus looks interesting to use this time around:MeganiumFroslassLopunnyAltariaEelektrossMawileAbsol or Dragonite
What’s the best Pokemon to use when catching other Pokemon? I assume a Sleep Powder user? False Swipe isn’t here anymore.
>>58409176Haven’t confirmed, but I read when you KO a mon they sit there stunned for a bit, and if you throw a ball it’s a guaranteed capture.
Is the level curve going to let you use a single team? I remember trying in SV and with permanent EXP share I was outleveling everything pretty quick.
>>58409293An anon said that a KO catch has a chance of failing which then causes the Pokemon to run away.
can hisuian avalugg be obtained in the game through normal gameplay?
