What Pokémon would you have?

What Pokémon would you have?

A rather odd topic perhaps but interesting nonetheless.

Make a list of Pokémon you think you would have if you lived in the Pokémon world. Attempt to mix your team with Pokémon you like, with Pokémon reflecting your personality.

To make it more interesting the choices will be restricted by a set of rules. Which goes as follows:
[list]
[*]You can't have more than six Pokémon.
[*]The total added value of your team (see system bellow) can't surpass 14 points.
[*]No legendaries (see list bellow).[/list]

The value system

It's a system invented to prevent you from overpowering your team and it goes as follows.

[list][*]Pokémon with 3 staged evolution costs as follows: 1st stage = 1 point, 2nd stage = 2 points, 3rd stage = 3 points.
[*]Pokémon with a two staged evolution costs as follows: 1st stage = 1 point, 2nd stage = 2 points.
[*]Pokémon that don't evolve costs as follows: 1st stage = 2 points.[/list]

The legendary Pokémon are as follows (you're not allowed to have these in your party):

Other than that enjoy!

My team would be:

[list=1][*]Swellow (2p)
[*]Arcanine (2p)
[*]Alakazam (3p)
[*]Milotic (2p)
[*]Metagross (3p)
[*]Sandshrew (1p)[/list=1]

Total sum: 13 points

My team

Dragonite (3)
Jolteon (2)
Growlithe (1)
Tauros (2)
Scizor (2)
Tyranitar (3)

Sum - 13

1. Meowth
2. Meowth
3. Meowth

6. Primeape

PAYDAY PAYDAY PAYDAY

Swellow is my favorite flying type and is for transport.

Primeape is an Ape Pig, no futher reasoning is needed.

No legendaries? Lame

hitmonlee
charizard
blastoise
scyther
golbat
Gyrados

Venusaur(3 points)
Infernape(3 points)
Umbreon(2 points)
Marowak(2 points)
Lapras(2 points)
Altaria(2 points)

14 points.

May I trade my team in for Arceus or are its points totaled at 9001?

Cool! Let me see if I can get this one right.

1. Snorlax(2)
2. Togetic(2)
3. Gengar(3)
4. Typhosion(3)
5. Pichu(1)
6. Umbreon(2)

total=13

BTW, can shining versions of the Pokemon we like be counted in? Don't know how but hey, its a thought.

Well considering how the vast majority of the players online use über teams (parties consisting mainly--if not only--of legendaries) it's kind of boring. You'll come across some twelve year old player with Arceus, only to one-shot it with a Machamp.

For instance, a team of four average Pokémon take out Arceus, Latias, Dialga and Heatran with moderate ease.

It's cost is 15 points, like the rest of the legendaries so you may not.

Good idea, each team might have one shiny Pokémon. I'll pick my Milotic.

Another über beatdown, for people who never played the games and actually think that legendaries are unbeatable.

Why would nintendo stop targeting kids?

Hmm.. I guess

Charmander (1)
Aerodactyl (2)
Gengar (3)
Sceptile (3)
Jolteon (2)
Alakazam (3)

Anyone with any real style wouldn't use the pony-like Arceus anyway.

I was mainly referring to the battle and not so much the commentary. But you're right there will always be adults that will be displeased by the younger generations, regardless of subject.

More commonly known as the grumpy old bastards sitting at a lawn or in a balcony attempting to spoil your childhood.

Garchomp. For obvious reasons.

Or Pika (Red's Pikachu), if given the chance.

Because you can't hold your own without an uber as broken as him?

Garchomp is in Ubers.
