The Champions League

[mineox100]

I never got far in any game, so I only battled Cynthia and Steven.
Steven weren't really hard because he focus on two or one types and I just brought my Fire and Fighting types Pokemon. Cynthia was harder because she had many different types, I transfered a few of my GBA Pokemon to the game and I still lost. On the 5th try,
I finally won with my Walrein using Blizzard on her Garchomp! So I say that Cynthia is a much stronger opponent than Steven. Maybe the strongest.

[Cosmotone8]

I agree that Cynthia is stronger, but I'm still drawn to Steven for some reason. Something about him that I really like, just from the way he acts to his Pokemon.

[miltankRancher]

maybe because of his cool surname?

No, really. Steven and Cynthia are masters. Something about them feels the same.

[Cosmotone8]

Well, they both help you throughout the game and give you useful pointers. They also have very similar attitudes and perspectives on things.

I think he meant the 2nd playthrough against the Elite Fours/Champion Pokemon, since Lance doesn't have Salamence till after you go through Kanto's gyms.(To shorten it up, he wants Salamence as his partner)

[Cosmotone8]

Ah, I see. In that case welcome!

Welcome to the club! I hope that you can post some new topics and stay actve.

Name - Vato

Friend - Cynthia

Partner - Togekiss

Reason For Joining - Champions, the toughest trainers in their regions, they are smart, strong, and wouldn't hesitate to use an item or to switch their Pokemon, thats what makes them cool, they're different in every sense, well, except for Alder, I was kind of expecting more from his team in White.

I actually prefer Cynthia, not because of her Pokemon, I don't like them (mainly because they were about to defeat me like a trillion times when I first faced her), but, I think she's the only one who uses moves in a strategic way (For example, before attacking, her Milotic used Aqua Ring), and you get to know her in Pt before facing her, and you actually never expect what her team is going to be when you're going to face her for the first time, I must say it, when I first fought with her, I thought she would use Dark Pokemon (Those black clothes are tricky), and her only dark Pokemon was Spiritomb :O
And she also uses Togekiss in Pt., I love Togekiss :)

Welcome to the club! Activity has been bad lately, but hopefully that can change!

[AlexOzzyCake]

This place is in desperate need of a topic, so here goes!

If you were to create a new mono-type champion, which type would you give them and why?

I'd make an Electric type champion. I know at first this might sound weird, but if you consider the huge number of Electric types there are with intricate typings and strategies, it seems like the perfect type to make a very diverse team around. With bulky resistant Pokemon such as Eelektross and Rotom supporting more fragile powerhouses such as Magnazone and Jolteon, the Electric type Pokemon could deal tremendous amounts of trouble to any oncoming challengers. They'd just have to make sure the team is put together well with Pokemon such as Eelektross with Acid Spray leading to weaken the enemy for the agile damage dealers to take out easily. Plus how cool would an Electric type champion look! The answer is very.

[Cosmotone8]

Electric would certainly be cool! But I want a flying person. That would be awesome, because I love flying types.

[psyanic]

A Flying-type Champion sounds almost too easy. I mean, Flying-types tend to have a ton of weaknesses, especially to common moves like Ice Beam or Thunderbolt.

I think a Ghost-type Champion would look pretty sick. And Ghost-types are usually very strong offensively and speedy, so they could land a hard hit or two. Unfortunately, there aren't enough Ghost-types to make a team diverse enough to prove to be a real challenge imo.

[Buzz Buzz]

Hmm, I'd like a Flying-type champion too, but it does sound easy. Actually every mono-type trainer is fairly easy to defeat if you use the right Pokémon and moves. So I think I'll go with a Rock-type champion. We've had three Rock gyms, but they were always the first ones to defeat so I'd love to see a champion with something stronger than a Geodude or a Nosepass. And it's one of the types that haven't been used by the Elite Four + Champion yet.

Unfortunately, there aren't enough Ghost-types to make a team diverse enough to prove to be a real challenge imo.

And they still made three Elite Four members Ghost Mono-types. Though a Ghost-type Champion would be pretty cool.

[Cosmotone8]

As cool as it would be to do a flying, like you all pointed out it would be too easy. But rock would be just as bad. Especially since they are weak to two of the starter types, which people often use till the end of the game. You add fighting and ground in there, and it just makes a mess. Now, if I had to choose one besides flying, I would go with Alex's suggestion of an electric one or I would go with a fighting. Fighting is only weak to flying and psychic, so It could work. There is also a lot of diversity at both of those types.

[Sector Revenge]

Name: Sector Revenge

Friend: Cynthia

Partner: Milotic (Peach)

Reason for Joining: Well the champions are the most respectful and looked up to trainers in the world. And the most challenging!

I once signed up before but I was never updated on the member's list. So I thought I'd try it again!

In answer to the topic:

If I had to choose a new mono-type champion, that differs from those currently? Excluding out the Steel, Water and Dragon types...I will have to say Normal or Electric types myself. Electric team would definitely have Eelektross, Emolga, Rotom-W, Galvantula, Magnezone and Jolteon. Normal type? Blissey, Miltank, Girafarig, Togekiss, Porygon2/Z, Ambipom. I think they'd be one interesting, yet challenging battles in -game.

[Cosmotone8]

Oh my gosh! I forgot to add you!

Will do now! XD

Like I mentioned every Mono-type trainer is easy to defeat. Even though Fighting is only weak to Flying and Psychic if you have one or two Pokémon with those type of moves, they're easily defeated. It's one of the reasons Cynthia is so difficult to defeat, because she has such a diverse team (Blue too, and Alder but he doesn't count).

Reason For Joining - I'm a big fan of the champions. I especially like Lance and Steven a lot. Lance is my favorite - I don't even know why XD
I guess it is because of his dragon types... I love them!

Which Champion's Pokemon is your favorite?

Lance Dragonite. I have a Dragonite myself in almost every team and I love it. It's one of my favorite Pokémon!
But I also like Cynthia's Milotic a lot...

[Cosmotone8]

Welcome to the club! Holy cow, was this club close to dying out or what?

[miltankRancher]

Close enough. I think we need a new topic.

f you would reshuffle the champions, which champion would you place in what region?

[Cosmotone8]

I would place red at indigo league, and make Blue the final Elite Four there. Lance would move to Hoenn, Steven would move to Sinnoh, and Cynthia would move to Unova.

I'd get rid of regional champions and make Cynthia the champion of every region. I don't have a preference for her personality or anything, but she's the only champion that ever posed a challenge to me whilst fighting them so imo she's the only one worthy of being known as a champion. :p On a related note, do you guys think the champions should be harder?
