5th Gen Your Leader Pokemon

Trainer Timothy said:

I would like to clarify, if I may, that I consider a leader Pokémon not one that I have in the 1-spot all the time, but one I go-to if in a sticky situation. My Pokémon line-up is always shifting. The first Pokémon will always be the lowest level and the six-spot Pokémon will always be the strongest.

I agree with you. My Serperior and Samurott are not always in the first spot in my party. But I have a tendency to use them more than my other pokemon because they are usually more reliable in battles.

Ever since I started playing Pokemon, I always had the habit of always placing my starter as the leader. I always thought, "Muahahah, If my chimchar is the leader all of the other trainers will get jealous!" And by referring to trainers, I was referring to the NPC computers. I was really dumb. So over time I just learned to put the weakest one in the leader position and so on. Rotating pokemon to level them evenly, etc.

While I do do the lowest level Pokemon first and rotate thing that alot of other people do, I do usually consider my starter as my "leader" Pokemon. (Which in Pokemon Black would be Grump the Emboar) Since I don't play the meta-game. It just seems to make the most since story-wise. Although when I start Black 2, I've been considering maybe having the Event Keldo be my leader.

I don't consider them leaders, it's usually just my favorite pokemon I have on my team of 6. So usually in 5th gen itd be Sawsbuck, or Bisharp!

In Black it was Golduck and in Black 2 it was Flygon.

In Pokemon black it was Serpirior in white 2 its Zoroark

i usually lead with my metagross because it can wall most types from the start and i have its moves covering most other types

I have just started playing Pokémon White (and Pokémon games of any type for that matter) for the first time very recently, and I have 15 Pokémon so far. But I have to say my favorite Pokémon so far is Snivy. He was the first Pokémon I ever got, and he is just to darn cute (and he has awesome attacks in my opinion). :D

Definitely my Flareon, I just love her :)

For Black 2 mine is Mienshao. As fast as possible, and just boots whoever in the face with Hi Jump Kick, or if necessary, U-Turn, Dual Chop (yes...Dual Chop), or Bounce. Wide Lens to increase accuracy as well.

My leader Pokemon in White was definitely Zoroark, while it was Mienshao in Black 2!

Mine is Espeon in Black 2 :)

Two excellent answers! My Espeon was my lead until I made my Mienshao.

Right now it's Coltzan, my Zebstrika. It used to be my Samurott, Warrior, until I deleted the game :C

In black it was Tepig, In Black 2 it is Jolteon.

Arcanine. He might not be my strongest pokemon, but he's definitely my favorite.

in Black it was my Serperior up until I got my Froslass from HG then that became my lead pokemon, and in Black 2 I used an Altaria I got from the dream radar to be my lead pokemon.

My leader is always Garchomp. I even managed to solo the entire Pokémon League with her (yes, my Garchomp is a female).

I'm playing Black 2 right now (just arrived in Lentimas), and so far my leaders are Krookodile, evolved from N's Sandile that you get in the Desert Resort, and my Leavanny, who actually was a very pleasant surprise ever since I caught her as a teeny weeny Sewaddle.

In my White game, it was Seismitoad the Destroyer of Worlds. She -- yeah, she's a female, her name is Tammy, is pretty beast.

My leader Pokemon was Emboar in White, and Serperior in Black 2.
