What will your team be?
 
So there probably aren't enough pokemon to have a full team yet, But Which pokemon will you definitely have on your team? Will you use your starter, and/or legendaries?

I really want Nekoala on my team, as it 's ability is really cool. I will also use the legendaries, and of course #teampopplio

Sabrewulf238 June 11th, 2016 8:18 AM

Too early. I've only really got Rowlet as a possibility right now.

Maybe Nekkoala but it'll depend on it's evolution. My gut is telling me it won't be on my team though.

Hikamaru June 11th, 2016 8:36 AM

I will definitely have Popplio as my starter and resident Water-type. Also, Nekkoala will be a possibility for my team especially since I am Australian and a koala would be an ideal Pokemon to use.

It's still too early to have my final team, because I'd rather see the whole Alola Dex first and hopefully there will be enough new Pokemon to win me over that I'd be convinced to use a team of only new Pokemon.

L'Belle June 11th, 2016 8:41 AM

I will use rowlet, and I don't think I will use Nekkoala or the other dude.

thedestinedblade June 11th, 2016 8:48 AM

lol, as of right it's something like this:

Starter: (undecided)
Regional bird
???
???
???
Hopefully not an HM Slave

smocks June 11th, 2016 9:03 AM

Litten (and Iwanko, depends on its evolution) for sure :)

Benermerut June 11th, 2016 9:57 AM

So far, just Rowlet.
I would love to raise an Iwanko, but, alas, he is not Grass.

Iceshadow3317 June 11th, 2016 10:26 AM

I am still not 100% sure yet. I would like to see more pokemon first before I choose. But I know I will not be using old pokemon and I will be doing a Rotation Team, which was EXTREMELY fun in Pokemon BW with all the new pokemon, even using all 3 starters on my first play through.

I really want to use Rowlet, but I want to see the regional bird first. If it looks nice and has a uncommon typing similar to Talonflame, I may use it instead of Rowlet.

classiccartoonsftw June 11th, 2016 10:43 AM

So far, Litten is the only one confirmed for my SM team. As for other team members, I'm considering Nekkoala, Rotom, and Slowbro. I may use Iwanko if it gets a cool looking and awesome evolution, or if it can learn a lot of HM's.

youngster_joey June 11th, 2016 11:52 AM

Litten and Iwanko, definitely. Other than that, I'm not sure.

Rivvon June 11th, 2016 12:36 PM

Pokémon I've never used before; preferably all new Pokémon. Definitely Litten; maybe dog based on what it evolves into and what, if any, other new Rock-types there are.

I knew a lot of Let's Players on YouTube who played XY using mostly only new Pokemon, and the small roster meant you mostly saw the same teams. If 7th Gen has more new Pokemon than 6th Gen I could actually see more diversity in those "new Pokemon only" rosters for this game, especially with the connecting themes the Pokemon designs have had so far.

XY's lack of new Pokémon definitely made making a team tough. And a lot of them were rarer than the overwhelming plethora of available older Pokémon, making finding what few news ones there were harder than it should have been. I genuinely hope SM doesn't share this trait with XY.

novafire91 June 11th, 2016 1:54 PM

Personally, I plan to use my old team from Poke'mon Y, which is:
1. * Rayquaza, Focus Sash.
2. Darkrai, Quick Claw.
3. * (F) Kangaskhan, Kangaskhanite.
4. * Arceus, Pixie Plate.
5. Zygarde, Earth Plate.
6. Volcanion, Leftovers.
I may use different items, depending on what new ones they create.
My name will be novafire.

freakyladymoonbeam June 11th, 2016 2:58 PM

I'm probably going to go with Popplio because dang that thing is cuuuuuuuute. I might bring my Lopunny in from ORAS because <333333333333 Lopunny. Uh... LOL I'm probably just going to catch whatever Pokemon I see that I like, as long as they'll last me a while. I mean, I'll try to fill up the Pokedex ASAP, but... yeah. :P

MrElephant June 11th, 2016 4:50 PM

Going to transfer all of my pokemon from the red and blue versions released from the 3ds store, so Blastoise, Venusaur, Hitmonlee, Charizard, Arcanine, and Ponyta.

That was what I didn't enjoy with XY, the fact that the new Pokemon were mostly harder to find. I hope Game Freak learned from their mistake and don't do this again in Sun & Moon, especially if we get a larger new Pokemon roster than XY had.

Desert Stream~ June 11th, 2016 7:51 PM

If we can use Rotom dex in battle, that's an instant spot on my team.

khaozz June 11th, 2016 8:10 PM

So far, my planned team is Litten, a Water type, a Grass type, a Pokemon that can use Fly, and two other Pokemon.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire June 11th, 2016 9:32 PM

My team will likely be Rowlet, Iwanko, Nyakkoala, and three others (one of which will be a water type).

I'll take litten if its evo isnt gonna be that screwed up. as im gonna take moon ill need something to light up the night ;-) (is it a possibility sun plays mostly at day and moon at night time?)

The koala is also so gonna be mine, what not to love about cocaine...eh koalas!

Desert Stream~ June 12th, 2016 3:04 PM

So if I ever get pokemon bank, I'll be transferring over a mudkip as well. That leaves 1 or 2 spots on my team. The last one will maybe be the third legendary if there is one.

same here, i love mudkip and its evolution tree. first time i chose an other starter than fire - diddnt regret it .:|

I don't want to decide who to bring on to my team yet, as we haven't really gotten that much information. I think I will only know once I see all the mons.

sinancr June 13th, 2016 4:54 AM

I'm quite sure that my team is going to be built like this:

- #TeamPopplio
- Nekkoala
- Regional bird (still hoping for the Peacock)
- New Pokémon #1
- New Pokémon #2
- Sandshrew (-> Sandslash) !!

I was thinking about Sandslash due to the fact that I'll have Popplio as my main Pokémon, whose typing is Water. His weaknesses are Grass and Electric.

The regional bird would make up for the Grass type enemies, whereas Sandslash will screw up all Electric type enemies. Furthermore, it just looks sick & I love it.

I'm wondering about the regional Bug - if it's cool, I'll certainly use it as well.
