I'm not against trading to get a Pokemon earlier either (like a Poni island mon), though I'd rather keep that to just one team member if I can help it. |
I'm really having trouble making up two teams that don't have overlapping types and it has actually made me realize how many Pokémon from this gen I really like! There's one from the datamine that I'm still waiting for them to officially reveal.

Wait how do you all know all the names of the islands and what order they're in too and even what islands certain Pokemon appear on? All I ever heard was that the first one is Melemele Island =(
which since some of you do seem to know, I'm curious to know when exactly island-wise I'm getting my planned team members, are there large gaps being them?: Spoiler:

Seems that they come along at a fairly steady pace, basically 2-1-1-1. Last one can fit in wherever I feel like I need something I guess |
Quote:
- Decidueye - Vikavolt - Lumineon - Alolan Ninetales - Morelull - Salandit evo This means I'm ditching Kommo-o and Comfey. Will consider both for a second run. |

Hmm... this is tough. I never have a team in mind when I go into a new generation.
I catch them as I go and pick the ones that look cute / cool enough - not even checking their nature / base stats x) I'll give it a try based on what I've seen: Primarina Alolan Ninetales Tsareena Mimikyu Komala Vikavolt or Silvally |
Ok new plan
- Decidueye - Alolan Persian - Oricorio (I don't care which one) - Lycanroc Midday - Tsareena - Wishiwashi |
I've thought about this a while and I've come up with:
-Decidueye -Alolan Marowak -Alolan Ninetales -Wimpod Evolution -Metagross -Kommo-o |
I'm planning on playing Moon first;
Popplio Rockruff Jangmo-o Mimikyu Wimpod and one of the ones that's been leaked but that I won't mention for spoilers. I'm also getting Sun and I'm planning on doing a mono grass run: Rowlet Cutiefly (I know it isn't a grass type but I can't resist!) Fomantis Bounsweet Whimsicott/Lilligant Leafeon or Pikipek's evolution, if it turns out to be Grass/Flying. I'm going to catch everything anyway (gotta keep my living dex up to date), but these will most likely be my story teams. No Alolan formes for me this time! |
Decidueye
Palossand Komala (If, it has a evolution) Minior (If, it has a evolution) The other two Pokemon, i have no idea yet. |
I've only decided on a few so far:
Decidueye Alolan Ninetales Mimikyu I suppose I'll just do the other three as I play the game. |
I think I will use the team in the trainer card on my signature. I may however replace one or two of them later with Poke'mon from Poke'mon Moon.
However, it isn't easy to determine right now, but I might replace more than that. |
Here's my updated planned Moon team:
Spoiler:
Definitely not speedrunning the game with this plan, since female Salandit are rare and only females can evolve. Crabrawler eventually got my final slot after loads of debate, but who knows I may rotate every now and then. So looking forward to Primarina and Raichu's exclusive Z-Moves as well so expect me using them in the future. Edit: Found out Alolan Sandshrew and Vulpix were version exclusives (or assumed to be) and Vulpix appears to be in Sun (Moon gets Sandshrew) so I guess choosing Crabrawler instead worked out well. |
This is my planned Sun team:
-Primarina (Popplio's final evolution) -Alolan Raichu -Alolan Ninetales -Lycanroc (Midday/Sun form) -Hak'amoo? (Jangmo's final evolution -Undecided |
Gonna put it in a spoiler for those who don't want to know about the leaks:
Spoiler:
|
Got my teams sorted and finalized after seeing the stat totals and types of them all. Despite a couple of typing overlaps, I'm pretty content with both teams!
Moon Team (Spoilers) Spoiler:
Sun Team (Spoilers) Spoiler:
|
My current Sun team:
-Incineroar (starter) -Primarina (traded) -Vikavolt -Kommo-o -Golisiopod The last I'm torn between: -Mimikyu -Silvally -Alolan Raichu -Alolan Muk -Machamp -That goddamn shiny, HA male Sableye I've been hounding down for years... My interests lay within the lore and love of the new Pokémon I'll encounter, which is why you're thinking about why my type coverage is complete crap. It ain't until after I import my other babies from the past that SH*T HITS THE FAN AND I GET COMPETITIVE!!!!! |
Someone showed me this, which could help. Spoiler warning: It shows all the Pokemon that were leaked.
https://richi3f.github.io/pokemon-team-planner/ I usually build my team around Crobat. I'll definitely keep Ash-Greninja and Kommo-o in my team. As for where I'm going from there...well some of the Pokemon were leaked, so I'll put up spoiler tags. Spoiler:
|
That Team Planner linked by Thunderflare is a useful spot to review your planned team, such as if you'll have a major weakness to a certain type. Half of my planned team is unfortunately is going to have a weakness to Ground but I will be carrying a Water and Grass-type to counter my huge Ground weakness anyway.
|
I plan on using a all 7th gen/ Alolan team. The team builder website was extremely helpful as well :)
Spoiler:
|
Also a reminder about the Team Planner - it currently only has Alola Dex Pokemon listed.

Plus 4 out of the 5 are resistant to Water, which could be good in an island region. |
