Welcome, one and all to the Type Cycle Challenge thread! (Revived!)

The entire basis behind Pokèmon is the idea of type advantages and disadvantages. This challenge expounds on this concept of creating a team that would be equally matched against each other in their advantages and disadvantages!

NOTE: Teams in this challenge will only consist of 3 pokèmon, and these pokèmon will be chosen by a RNG! If you would like to have a team with 6 pokèmon or despise RNGs with a vengeance, well, tough luck! .-.

To begin this challenge, choose one of the following Type Cycles, as I have dubbed them, and then put that cycle's Cycle Code (CC) in your Registration Form. Some of the Cycles will include immunities to give certain types more chances to be used.

Type Cycles
Spoiler:

Rules: 1.You have to catch the first pokèmon available to you that has been assigned to you as soon as possible. Until then, use your starter!
2.HM Slaves are allowed to be caught and used, but you may not bring them with you into any battles against Gym Leaders or the Elite 4!

In order to complete the challenge, you must defeat the strongest trainer in each of your respective games
Spoiler:


Here's the Registration Form
NOTE: Challenge Type is whether you're doing the Single (One Version) Challenge or the Ultimate (Gen 1-5) Challenge! You may add Gen 6 to the list if you choose, but I understand some people don't have access to those games.

Hey, I have a few tips. First, you might not want to reveal the Champ for X/Y, because unlike a lot of people, some people still don't have the game. Also, you can't say you don't have a challenger, because you can include yourself. Also, I'll sign up to get you started.

No problem, thanks, and I'd appreciate it if I could get a Dark-type for the last four games, if that's ok.
