Pokemon Strategies?

Whats your Strategy on playing Pokemon? I mean like Raising Pokemon, Training and Breeding.

I generally try keeping my Pokemon at a same level otherwise there are disasters when a weak Pokemon is needed... Also trying not to keep underleveled ^^. That's about it for me, can't think of any other good statergies.

I tend to trade my starter over to someone else who has finished the game to power level it up and send it back over.
I fly through the game but it kills some of the fun for me :\ I'm just lazy I guess hah.

This is pretty much mine too, I look at what types I might need then keep them all at the same level so I don't have to grind too much when I might need them. And I like to be between 3-5 levels higher than the gym leaders I'm battling before challenging them. Which isn't too hard 'cause I usually go up a level in their gym fighting the minions.

I try to make sure that my main team's movesets give me at least 1 super effective advantage against each of the 17 types.

I've also got a few combo attacks I like to use. For my Platinum team, I pair Gliscor and Aerodactyl for a double Earthquake. And one that I'm planning on using for my Black 2 team is to pair Garchomp with Rotom for an Earthquake/Discharge combo.

Other than that, I like to make sure my Pokemon are fairly quick so that they can attack first.

I keep my starter as my strongest Pokemon, with the rest of my team members a few levels behind. I also give them diverse movesets and EV train them, if possible.
