Your Current Team
So, what is everyone's current team comprised of? I am sure this kind of thread has been done before, but I have yet to see it. I very much enjoy team construction and seeing other peoples' rationale for their team, because there are so many different ways to do it! You can go for competitive prowess, the team that will help you beat your given game fastest, or even just comprise your team of all your favorite pokemon. To be clear, I am asking what is your team right now in the game you are playing at the moment, doesn't have to be specific to one game, one generation, etc. Include as much or as little detail as you'd like. :)
So I'll start, current team in pokemon white is: 1. Samurott 2. Beartic 3. Galvantula 4. Golurk 5. Bisharp 6. Beheeyem. For this team I went with Unova favorites but also am looking for balance and coverage. Just added info, I also had a Lilligant that got switched out for Beheeyem and Boldore whose place was taken by Golurk. |
In OR my final end game was:
Altaria/Mega Altaria Garchomp Tyrantrum Charizard X Dragalge Druddigon. |
My current Platinum team is Prinplup, Roselia, Luxio and Bunneary
|
Currently platinum team:
1. Empoleon (Serenity) 2. Pachirisu (Poppy) 3. Lopunny (Chanel) 4. Leafeon (Zinnia) 5. Mismagius (Vera) 6. Togekiss (Angel) 7. Floatzel (Hudson) |
So why 7 members mysticalnintales? I am just curious because I’ve heard of other people doing that but have never done it myself. How does that work? Again, just curious.
|
I mean...sometimes you just need that extra to switch in and out of from time to time-if we're gonna be extensive-my past 3 games I've used EVERY Dragon type, switching in and out for whatever's needed.
Sun I had in the end though- Dragonite Tyrantrum Druddigon Kommo-O Kingdra Alolan Exeggutor. |

Just completed the main story of Pokémon Sword a second time.
Here’s my final team: -Excadrill (Earthquake, Iron Head, Brick Break) -Arcanine (Flare Blitz, Play Rough, Crunch, Extreme Speed) -Donkey Kong the Rillaboom (Drum Beating, Drain Punch, Knock Off, False Swipe) -DougDimadome the Galarian Weezing (Sludge Bomb, Strange Steam, Thunderbolt, Heat Wave) -Tari the Vaporeon (Hydro Pump, Aurora Beam, Weather Ball, Haze) -Honkler the Mr. Rime (Freeze-Dry, Psychic, Dazzling Gleam, Sucker Punch) Note: Excadrill and Arcanine weren’t nicknamed, as I received them from a Japanese player via Surprise Trade. |
Going through Sword (though I haven't played in a few days) again, but my current party is:
Drizzile Galarian Linoone Drilbur Gloom Litwick Just made it to Stow-on-Side. Haven't really decided who will take up the last spot. |
Currently playing through Fire Red & Emerald (mainly Emerald by now) so here are my 2 teams in these games:
Fire Red (finished the whole Sevii Islands thing and won the Pokémon League twice): - Heracross lvl 54 - Tyranitar lvl 58 - Dragonite lvl 60 - Lapras lvl 60 - Rapidash lvl 60 - Venusaur lvl 62 Emerald (6 badges): - Gardevoir lvl 32 - Manectric lvl 32 - Lairon lvl 32 - Camerupt lvl 33 - Swampert lvl 49 - Swellow lvl 25 (soon to be replaced by Bagon) I'm not very knowledgeable about strategy and competitive battling (although I'd very much like to learn more), so I just try to keep a fairly balanced team in terms of types and with no legendaries (just so that it's a bit more fun and challenging, the battles are often way too easy with legendaries). |
I know this is most likely talking ingame teams, but regardless I’d like to share my favorite. The best team I ever had was my 4th gen wifi battle team:
Infernape Snorlax Salamence Tangrowth Swampert Starmie So many memories.. In Sw/Sh..my play through team when I beat the game was... Rillaboom Corviknight Sirfetch’d Toxtricity Vaporeon Kommo-o |
Just going back through my old games, transferring all my old team members and event Pokémon into my Diamond storage save. There's teams from 2011 in there, but these are the ones I most recently actually played
Emerald:
I went particularly all-in on my last two Emerald saves as I'd had to pay to get a new internal battery - in the previous save I'd EV-trained my Swampert, Metagross and Latios, the latter two obviously unavailable until after the Elite Four. HeartGold:
Platinum:

Love the Heartgold team Amore!
Crazy, just looked back at this and realized I am now replaying Black 2 and, thus, have a different team. Current team in black 2 is: 1. Servine(level 32) 2. Rufflet(level 34) 3. Axew(level 33) 4. Druddigon (level 33; he’s my surfer). 5. Litwick (level 33) 6. Escavalier( level 32) I have 5 badges and am in chargestone cave. As you can see, only Escavalier is fully evolved, though the others are getting kinda close. This is a less balanced team than I usually have, and they all evolve late. I usually have team members that evolve earlier than this, so it’s been a fun challenge so far. Axew is especially getting harder to level up. Can’t wait for my Haxorus, Chandelure, and Braviary. It will definitely be all worth it at that point. :) |
Platinum (2 badges):
Cobblepot - Prinplup (Male) lvl 20 Bulletman - Staravia (Male) lvl 24 Angry - Bunneary (Female) lvl 20 Idk if these are the levels. They are in the Journal Thread of my Platinum run and I'm too lazy to check |
I'll have to check Ultra Moon but can anyone guess in the meantime? To make it a bit easier, they're all in the 2nd stage, but I do have Sceptile, Altaria, Ampharos, and Charizard obtained at this point...
|
Do hacks count? I've got a team of 66 pokemon in Renegade Platinum, and I hate myself. Not gonna list them because its a pain.
My last "proper" playthrough was Let's Go Pikachu with a team of 10: Kingler Tangela Hypno Scyther Alolan Raticate Arcanine Weezing Magneton Butterfree Chansey Even with more than 6 pokemon, I didn't have to grind that much. Pretty alright team. Also, if you're clever, you might notice something special about these 10 pokemon... |
I just finished Platinum yesterday. My final team was:
Empoleon (Bubbles - Lvl 60) Leafeon (Glamazon - Lvl 58) Quagsire (In the Mud - Lvl 45) Medicham (Judo - Lvl 41) Staraptar (Stringwing - Lvl 58) Rapidash (Epona - Lvl 58). Levels were...scattered to say the least. Only one left standing at the end of Cynthia was my starter. Did not use revives. |
currently playing yellow! the team is pikachu, clefable, mew, and mankey. probably will replace mankey for vaporeon sometime soon, and also need to nab myself a flying type...idk who i'll have as the final team member yet, ahhh
|
Currently in a White playthrough and just about to head to Opelucid City, so nearing the end of the game now! My current team is:
1. Serperior 2. Musharna 3. Zebstrika 4. Lampent 5. Krookodile 6. Frillish It's a decent team I guess, using a couple of new Pokemon I haven't used before in Chandelure and Jellicent (when they both evolve) |
Currently playing Sun. I have a Dartrix and a Alolan Meowth right now.
|
Doing a quirky Platinum challenge where I can only use old gen Pokémon. Current team consists of:
1. Alakazam (Oz) 2. Golem (Balma) 3. Gyarados (Cameron) 4. Jolteon (Spike) 5. Scizor (Wayfarer) 6. Houndoom (Persephone) I'm also gonna maybe get a Snorlax to replace Golem in the future, cause that'd be fucking cool, but it would take a while to find Munchlax 😳 |
In my current HeartGold save I don't just have a team... It's an army! :D 11 pokémon that I rotate:
- Feraligatr lvl 58 - Crobat lvl 45 - Ampharos lvl 45 - Espeon lvl 44 - Dragonite lvl 55 - Tyranitar lvl 55 - Mamoswine lvl 45 - Scizor lvl 43 - Arcanine lvl 43 - Gyarados lvl 44 - Snorlax lvl 50 (still not strong enough to beat Red, though...) |
Replaying Emerald in German with Pokemon I never really used (starter being the exception):
Swampert Breloom Hariyama Loudred (soon to be Exploud) Xatu Linoon |
I've mostly been playing Sword lately, collecting Watts and Apricorns.
Current team, comprised of some of my favorite Pokémon and most-cherished Shinies: Torrin (Shiny Wartortle) I love Wartortle's aesthetic and, due to its nostalgic value as well, recently decided that it's my favorite Pokémon. I SR'd Torrin in HGSS a few years ago. Rumple (Shiny Leafeon) It wasn't until after I got this one that I realized how much I love Leafeon's design (my #2 in aesthetics). SR'd in VC Gold back in January while I was trying for a Shiny Eevee that I could use as an in-game representation of my fluffy grey cat (Rumple is a clone of that Eevee). Noko (Shiny Dunsparce) The only Shiny on my team that isn't full-odds. I chained Noko in Pearl shortly before the release of HGSS and swapped my Johto starter for it ASAP. It was my mascot and favorite Pokémon for a long time. (I've caught a full-odds one since that I was using on my team for a while, but it doesn't have that same sentimental feeling.) Tahki (Shiny Alolan Sandslash) Ice is tied with Normal as my favorite type and Alolan Sandslash is currently my favorite Ice-type. It was the first Shiny I tried to hunt in SM and I spent months trying to hatch one, but encountered Tahki purely by chance shortly after getting tired of hatching eggs. (I'd been using my Shiny Shedinja here until recently but, even though I like its concept more, Tahki is more significant to me.) Chipotle (Shiny Flareon) I consider Chipotle my "most surprising" Shiny. I was looking for a rainy route to evolve my Sliggoo for my X WonderLocke and was shocked when a silvery Eevee appeared! (I chose to evolve it into Flareon due its IVs—not knowing that Hyper Training would ever be a thing—and because I already had most of the other Eeveelutions via Masuda method and Friend Safari.) Codec (Shiny Porygon2) The oldest Shiny I still have, accidentally SR'd in Platinum (2008) while trying to get a Modest nature. I would have Tael (Shiny Mothim), my most intense Shiny-hunt, here, but it sadly can't be transferred to SWSH. :( |
I have 2 main teams in Sword and Shield right now. But I still use other pokemon as well.
One team is nothing, but new pokemon, while my other is older pokemon. Main Team 1: Lopunny Gardevoir (Shiny) Aegislash Lycanroc (Dusk) Goodra Charizard (Shiny/Giganta) Main Team 2: Urshifu (Rapid) (Giganta) Cinderace (Giganta) Toxtricity (High Voltage) (Giganta) Corviknight (Giganta) Hatterene (Giganta) Dragapult Rotation Members: Ninetales (Alolan) Decidueye Melmetal (Shiny) Tyranitar (Shiny) I just actually started using Lopunny not long ago. I made a second account on my Switch just to get the second Gigantamax Urshifu. I ended up catching a Lopunny and started becoming one of my favorite pokemon. |
