Seriously, how stupid are they?
The Latis (ESPECIALLY with Soul Dew) are very strong legendaries!
I don't think I've seen one running Soul Dew, actually. I think it might have been banned? They usually have Life Orbs or Leftovers.
Wait, what about dual-type? Like, each trainer gets two types, and each half of their team has to be made up of one of the two types. If we were to do that, my second pick would likely be Steel.
I remember one version had it so you could either mono type or follow a theme (e.g. all 'dragons' in so far as they resemble them (so Charizard counts, but Altaria doesn't), or all red)
Hmm . . . maybe Fire or Psychic.
Psychic and Ice.
Fire and Ice
Ice and Fire Fighting and Steel it is.
Grass and Dark.
I recall Steel being just as annoying as Dragons in D/P though. I'm guessing the rise of Fighting-types has changed that?
There are lots of new Fighting Types in B/W, which I think have made it significantly easier to counter Steel, as well as lots of fast EdgeQuake users. But if it's still deemed to be as annoying, I could just use Psychic or Fire on the other half or something.
So if we're going for two types then I'll go with Ghost and Electric
Now to make my team X3
Sceptile/Sawsbuck/Ludicolo
Rhydon/Donphan/Marowak
I'm considering playing with:
Electrode/Froslass/Gengar/Rotom/Drifblim/Chandelure
Yes I'm only intimately familiar with one or two 5th generation Pokemon
Bug Team will have Heracross. No exceptions.
...And now I can't tell who's using what at all.
Oh, hey, two questions:
1. Are tier-balanced legendaries okay?
2. Is only one person allowed to use any type?
The reason Lati@s got back down to OU, is cause they aren't considered overpowered anymore, especially since they don't have access to the Soul Dew in this gen. Even if Soul Dew did exist, it would just be banned from OU, not the Latis.
Also, dibs on Ground or Ghost.
Also, fuck Rotom-W.
Gastrodon trolls it so hard. One of the main reasons Squigly is on my team.
Just like only Speed Boost Blaziken got relegated to Uber?
And if we're doing two types, I'll go with Dark and Psychic.
^ But Speed Boost outright says that the Pokemon has it at the end of each turn! It's easy to prove that the other guy cheated!
I doubt they'd have just banned Soul Dew since, you know, they didn't do that the last two generations. Although inertia says that if/when Soul Dew comes out in this gen they might just ban it rather than making the Latis uber.
Also, I find this format really intriguing, but goddamn is it hard to get into. I wish there was a primer somewhere.
Fire and Poison:
Ninetales/Heatran/Volcarona
Tentacruel/Venusaur/Gengar
^ I played Hackmons once. I loved Roar/SR/Spikes/Copycat Prankster Giratina.
Did we ever reach a consensus on using Steel types?
We should make a list to see who has which types.
I got Ground already >
I have Ground and Grass.
