yea it shows them beforehand. But i honestly don't pay attention to it till after they are sent over lol
IIRC gen 4 had a bit of a fire type problem =p there was like 2 of them? the fire starter + rapidash xD
I know I've used torterra in either diamond or pearl. I don't remember who I used in the other game. I will probably pick either piplup or chimchar. So Empoleon probably xD
I tend to prefer to use (new) mons from the region for any first playthroughs. So I guess I'd try and find a gen 4 team of mons I havent used before yet lol.
