I once made a thread like this a few months back, but it sadly died out (or at least I think it did) so yeah another version is popping up here.

Basically, the topic is explained in the title. What is your current team right now in your 4th Generation games? You can list any team from a certain 4th Gen game, or even all your teams in one post!

Here was what my Platinum and SoulSilver teams was from last time so you get the idea:

Platinum

Infernape
Quagsire
Roselia
Staraptor

SoulSilver

Typhlosion
Roserade
Golduck
Staraptor
Manectric
(and one other team member I forgot lol)

Let's see...

Diamond:
Prinplup lv. 32 (starter, soon to be an Empoleon)
Luxray lv. 35 (caught a Shinx early and never stopped using it)
Golem lv. 27 (that I don't use)
Torterra lv. 36 (from my Grotle traded from Pearl)
Murkrow lv. 36 (when will I get that Dusk Stone?)
Bronzong lv. 33 (because who doesn't like Bronzong?)

I'm at Iron Island right now, training for Byron's Gym.

HeartGold
Crobat lv. 50 (decided to catch one of those pesky Zubat)
Ampharos lv. 60 (for some reason I always use an Ampharos in any game that it's in)
Feraligatr lv. 52 (starter)
Houndoom lv. 52 (caught a Houndour right before the E4 and kept it)
Gligar lv. 24 (HM slave/hopefully a Gliscor someday)
Geodude lv. 15 (HM slave, nothing more)

Finished the Kanto saga besides defeating Red. Currently doing nothing, but I haven't caught any legendary Pokémon yet (besides Ho-Oh and Suicune), so I plan on doing that and sending them to my Black 2 version.

Well, I'm planning to play through again with different teams but these were my last Platinum and HeartGold teams:

Platinum:
Froslass lv.66 [Psychic / Destiny Bond / Ice Beam / Shadow Ball]
Porygon-Z lv.66 [Tri Attack / Shadow Ball / Nasty Plot / Discharge]
Gallade lv.69 [Psycho Cut / Close Combat / Swords Dance / Stone Edge]
Leafeon lv.67 [Sunny Day / X-Scissor / Seed Bomb / Iron Tail] - I was working on getting Leaf Blade
Garchomp lv.68 [Outrage / Draco Meteor / Earthquake / Fire Blast]
Empoleon lv.70 [Surf / Return / Avalanche / Flash Cannon]
Staraptor lv.47 (Dropped it) [Fly / Close Combat / U-turn / Agility]

HeartGold:
Feraligatr lv.80 [Crunch / Superpower / Ice Punch / Waterfall]
Togekiss lv.78 [Aura Sphere / Double-Edge / Extrasensory / Air Slash]
Magmortar lv.78 [Fire Blast / Thunderbolt / Focus Blast / Rock Climb]
Scizor lv.75 [Bullet Punch / X-Scissor / Night Slash / Rock Smash (has technician)]
Lanturn lv.74 [Stockpile / Discharge / Surf / Ice Beam]
Rusty lv.77 (traded for my own Steelix :P ) [Iron Tail / Earthquake / Double-Edge / Stone Edge]


Wow...gotta be honest those are two of the strongest teams I've had that haven't been hybrids of multiple plays or with Gen III mixed in or something...I've had higher levels but not the quality of pokémon.

I can't quite remember what level each of my Pokemon are as I don't have my DS in front of me, but I do remember both of my teams.

HeartGold

Roxo the Gengar
Espia the Espeon
Tamsa the Absol
Pittor the Smeargle
Kabbi the Snorlax
Articuno

Platinum

Czar the Empoleon
Lucia the Lucario
Magniz the Magnezone
Ferra the Metagross
Aryk the Arcanine
Scizeaux the Scizor

I've sent most of my good Pokemon to White/White 2, so those are basically the best Pokemon out of the leftovers (they're still all levelled anywhere between 65-100, though).

Replaying SoulSilver for the sole (aha?) purpose of getting Chikorita, Squirtle, and Mudkip into my Black 2. I'm barely at the 5th gym, but here it is:


  • Leafroy (Bayleef, M, Lv. 27)
  • Skree (Crobat, M, Lv. 26)
  • Zachary (Flaaffy, M, Lv. 26)
  • Dracus (Dratini, M, Lv. 28)
  • Aria (Pidgeotto, F, Lv. 25)
  • Charla (Slugma, F, Lv. 24)
Might switch out my Slugma for a Ponyta, since I found one while on a stroll with the Pokewalker. Albeit Ponyta evolves later than Slugma, Magcargo is basically weak to a lot of types and is slow which doesn't suit my battle style.

I think I've already posted in a thread like this but oh well, what the hey? It's fun!

So here is my team from Pokemon Pearl (my only fourth gen game).

• Empoleon - (Lvl 68) - (Hydro pump, Surf, Brine, Waterfall).

• Luxray - (Lvl 70) - (Thunder, Discharge, Thunder Fang, Crunch).

• Staraptor - (Lvl 65) - (Wing Attack, Aerial Ace, Fly, Close Combat).

• Rapidash - (Lvl 65) - (Flare Blitz, Fire Blast, Flamethrower, Bounce.)

• Gastrodon - (Lvl 64) - (Dig, Mud bomb, Recover, Mud shot).

I actually took out my DSi to make sure I was 100% correct. xD I pretty much pawned every Pokemon and trainer I went by with that team!
