I'd like to see a miniature version of Deoxys.

I once played a Crystal Hack that when I got to the part where I got to choose a starter, there was a really long table with all 251 Pokemon to choose from! I picked Mareep.

But you know wooper. I jusr ask cause frost likes them plus they are resistant to thunder but very weak to grass.
and not to mention, almost all dragons are very weak to ice as well. Deoxy can't do crap against quick attacker. Blissey makes 1/3 of all Pokemon in the world useless, while Skarmory can also wipe out another 1/3. Armaldo destroys Ninjask, but Ninjask is still used quite commonly. Shedinja can get OHKO by a lot of stuff, but is still consider to be useful sometimes. Just because it's weak, doesn't mean it's not usable.

Quagsire is in fact one of the only 3 usable Pokemon in my team of favorites that is actually usable in the real game, being completely resistance to both electric and water is a great advantage. (the other being Lanturn and Kingdra, and the whole beam is screwed by a single Blissey or Regice, that is if sheer cold misses ^^; )

But if you teach a sableye skill swap and then throw out a shednija it will be invicble unless you have a pokemon that knows oder sleuth or foresight and a fighting move.
And out comes Skarmory and roar...

and that's gg for "invincible" sableye

Plus on top of that, I'm not sure if skill swap will even hit on Shedinja... (not sure about trace either since I never bothered to look up Shedinja's technical information when T-tar roams around NB for endless days)

Sableye is a UU for stalling though... it has an excellent movepool with toxic, confuse ray night shade and recover all at once... well but the defensive stats is pure repulsive... just like how Cacturne's moveset all are defensive based, but its stats say that it's a slow sweeper o.o;

hmm...

Squirtle... hehe I use it on my team too as Suicune replacement ^^
(due to a much hated personality of mine to treat using Suicune on any team of mine as S-I-N, I just have to use something weaker that can stall and haze/pseudohaze at the same time)

Tyranitar... x_x; I'm starting to hate it so much now after seeing it two times out of every 5 battle

Scyther, Just because he is my favorite.
Of corse I would catch a few making the team I wanted, maybe carry around 8 pokeballs with me. Who says you can only have 6 with you? XD

Well thats wierd I hardly see one but you know red in crystal he was evil.
it's usually metagross, salamence or tyranitar as the physical sweeper anyway...

Red is not even close to evil... his only strong Pokemon is a snorlax, and thank goodness it doesn't have curse but amnesia instead? That means, it's physical completely vulnerable...

lol... I don't think it works that way Iveechan ^_^; Starters seem to have to have a total of 3 different stage of evolution. And so in terms of fighting type, there's just Machop and only Machop for you ;p

Why are you targetting me when others want to start with freakin' legends and two-stage Pokemon? This is personal opinion.

Well, if I HAD to choose a 3 stage Pokemon, then Trapinch. Slow as heck and takes forver to reach its 2nd form, but those early dark moves could be useful, and I like Flygon.
