Team?
I know it's too early to be talking teams for the game since Pokémon are not yet announced.
But, I'm sure you have Pokémon in your mind you are excited to try out especially during this game. So who are those Pokémon? I've been honestly wanting to try Toucannon and A-Sandslash so I hope I get to use it during this games. |
I haven't used Toucannon or Mudsdale, and I would like to try them out.
|
Decidueye
Incineroar Primarina Necrozma leo Necrozma ala Tapu Koko yep |

wow you've never tried using the starters? Try Incineroar, he's awesome. |
might try going without a starter at all this time. I had both Decidueye and Primarina for the majority of the main storyline and nabbed Incineroar after the E4, so maybe it's time to try something new.
besides that idk. waiting to hear if there are new alolan forms for me to build my team around. |
Primarina is pretty much my Alola mascot, so it needs to be on the team. I do also plan to continue my tradition of a Grass/Fire/Water trio that the starter occupies one of the slots in. My other three slots will probably go to wildcards that can deliver good coverage, though I like to see the options before making my final choice.
|
I'm glad there were so many new Pokemon from Alola that I still to try (including Alolan forms), because this means I can now use the ones I haven't yet used in USM. Some that spring to mind are Dhelmise, Toxapex, Vikavolt, Shiinotic, A-Marowak, A-Muk. Hopefully, for the case of Vikavolt, final evolutions will be accessible much earlier in the game rather than on the very last island almost to the end of the game. That's what put me off using it in the first place tbh.
|
Ah! It has been ages since I did a solo run (last I remember, it was on crystal five years ago). Might try it this time with Decidueye.
|
Litten and A-Vulpix I will for sure use, otherwise I'm not completely sure yet. I will continue only using new Pokemon for sure and I'll try to keep it to ones I havent used yet, maybe Dhelmise? Except for maybe Lycanroc midday, I love that wolf
|
I really have no idea. I never plan teams out when playing a pokémon game for the very first time, I just collect them as I go c: Surely Primarina though <3 And Lunala whenever i get my hands on it.
|
I'd love to give Decidueye and day!Lycanroc a chance. Maybe Drampa too.
|
So far, the only Pokemon that's pretty much confirmed for my team is Incineroar. As for the other slots, they'll remain open for now.
|
Let's say, for whatever reason, the Pokedex selection is still the same.
Decidueye Salamence Marowak Whiscash Togedemaru Sylveon |
I would use Primarina this time since I've had done with the other 2.
Since I don't use legendary (And Mythical) and since this is a sequel I would love to combine Pokemon from older generation in this time. Probably trying out Alolan Marowak. |
Can't say much as of now but I do know I'll use Primarina as my starter and I'll add Lycanroc midday form. To consider are Rimombee, Toucannon, Kommo-o, A-Raichu and A-Sandlash. That is unless there will be some awesome new Alola forms...
|
This time, I'm hoping I can pull a B2W2 where I boxed my starter and replaced it with a level 5 Vaporeon, but this time with a level 5 Dhelmise I transfer. I'd get another Popplio, but it just wouldn't be as fun--no Primarina can replace my Wallace. (from the first pokemon moon.)
As for the rest of my team, it's practically going to be the same as the last game. Alola Exeggutor, Palossand, probably Wishiwashi, except this time I'm going to have Necrozma and also Shiinotic, which I felt like I missed out using last game. |
I still haven't managed to beat Sun or Moon yet, but since I have them both physical and digital I may throw one of the Eeveelutions on each of my teams there and use the other four for US/UM. Beyond that, I'm not really sure. I'm not a fan of reusing Pokemon and these games already have a not especially great selection of Pokemon as it is.
|
Oh, another Pokemon I missed on trying out is A-Marowak. Would love to see how it stands up to hype.

Well I'm picking Primarina as I went with Decidueye before. I'm also seriously considering Mimikyu because it just missed out on my team the first time around. Though Dhelmise may be a better pick since there's no type overlap and I really want to use it.
After that it'll depend on what new (old) pokemon they add to the region. |
It'll depend on what is available in game, but since I have a 7th Gen Living Dex on Bank I might just use those. I had an all-birb team in Moon, so maybe I'll try something different this time around.
|
Oh and since I'll be buying Moon, I get to use Drampa.
So my team, if pokedex doesn't change is now set to Primarina Toucannon Drampa A-Marowak A-Sandslash toucannon might change if I get to do my mono-flying type before USUM comes out. |
Nowadays, I use Pokemon I never used before. So far, I'm thinking Incineroar, Toucannon, Mimikyu and maybe a water type to make up for a lack of one in my Moon team.
Or maybe since the games are likely retellings of the original S/M, I might have a team of counterparts to my Moon team just for fun: Moon team: Decidueye, Alolan Raichu, Lycanroc (Midnight form), Salazzle, Alolan Ninetales, Kommo-O Possible US/UM team: - Different starter. - Either non-Alolan Raichu, another Alolan form that evolves from a Pokemon without an Alolan form (Exeggutor or Marowak) or one of the Pika clones. I'll probably go for one of the latter two since I've used Raichu too many times before. - Lycanroc (Midday form). - Not sure what a Salazzle counterpart could be. - Alolan Sandslash or non-Alolan Ninetales. - Either another Gen 7 dragon type such as Drampa or another dragon type that evolves twice such as Salamence. |

I'll use the same team I used in Sun: My starter, Litten, plus some lv. 1 Pokemon bred in Sun to start off. Mudkip, Chespin, Mawile, Munchlax, and Elekid. That seems to be my team going forward in all the games from now on, starting off.
