You read the title, the topic of this thread is does your current team have a theme?
Add a little explanation about the theme, and why you picked the members you did.
I'm not talking about wifi teams either, but if you make up your teams and just go with it.

My team is based on favorites right now. I've always loved Luxray and Torterra, with Crobat being added on thanks to him being in my IG team. Walrein and Umbreon are cool, and Tauros is just totally awesome ^^.

I don't play on Wi-fi, but my current team in Platinum is just based on the Pokemon I like, and generally trying to keep everything well-rounded.

Empoleon, Staraptor, Houndoom, Garchomp, Roserade, and Gallade.

I gave Empoleon Ice Beam and I'll be teaching Gallade Thunderpunch from a move tutor just to cover all the bases. Sure, it's just in-game, but I like to pretend to be professional sometimes. :3

Nope. My team on Silver is in my sig, and as you can see it's based on the same thing every other team i've made is: being as effective against all the other types as possible.

The only time i've made a theme team is when I did the Electric monotype challenge. Other than that, I believe there's been a few times on Blue/Yellow where i've put together 5 or 6 of my favourite Pokémon and formed a team from them.

Froslass . Honchkrow . Skuntank . Gliscor . Weavile . Dusknoir

8 D Maybe a creepy theme? Mostly ghost/dark with the exception of Gliscor cause she's sexy > 3
Dusknoir acts like a wall while Weavile's my physical hitter/Speed and Froslass is for Speed. Honchkrow for Attack/Sp. Att. Skuntank for power and poisoning. And Gliscor to take care of anyone else. x D

Um... it kinda is, I think I'm missing something.
I'm assuming s favourites, but I could be wrong. :P

Anyway, I use a mixture of Pokemon I like as well as Pokemon which are strong. I also like to use well rounded teams, type-wise. :D

Yeah, my team is based around favorites. I even go as far as to give them their own personalities along with making two of them shiny (based off of legitimate shineys I had found in the past and their implied personalities). I've always loved these guys. :D
Umbreon(shiny), Milotic, Ninetales(shiny), Rampardos, Garchomp, Honchkrow. <3

... I'm working towards an Eeveelution team, but it isn't going well. I keep getting natures that lower defenses or speed, and I just want a female or two, dangit! (stupid 12.5%...)

But, in my party in Platinum, I hope to have:
Espeon, Umbreon, Glaceon, Jolteon, Leafeon, and Bibarel (because I have to have an HM slave to get through Platinum... I'll be swtiching part members to let Flareon and Vaporeon get some training before the E4 and Cynthia)

My team has six Ice weaknesses >_>
No, six Weavile weaknesses. :D

My current team? Uh, yes, well on the ROM Platinum I had a pretty cool in-game team going in my journals.

Gabite / Luxray / Gyarados / Onix / Togetic / Umbreon

Strategy-based. Luxray and Gyarados' used for intimidate drain, once there, Onix to come in on their mere tickles and abuse screech. Then Gabite or Gyara to set-up consume their team. =D Umbreon and Togetic were the special attack based sponges. The theme is they're all considered favs in my books while also bringing about solid defenses on both spectrums.

My current team in Diamond is for the Battle Tower... Theme? Yawn wall setup for 130 atk sweepers. XD

Uxie / Garchomp / Scizor

Uxie as a duel wall to set up Yawn and screen support. Setting up Garchomp and Scizor whom both have Swords Dance. Setting up while the opponent is asleep is pretty lethal and this team boasts a 164 record.

So... yeah. XD

My current Battle Frontier Team for Platinum:
Scizor (Choice Bander)/Azelf (LO Sweeper, Explosion's hella powerful too)/Garchomp (Sub/SD, but I've been considering giving him Fire Fang over Sub so he isn't walled senseless by Bronzong >_>)
so... I guess it's an all-out offensive team. Nothing else to say :s


Fun fact of the week: Did you know that with 252 SpD EVs, Bold Cloyster's SpD increases by 50%?

Greatest regret in Platinum: Selling almost all of my Star Pieces.

Theme teams are usually a bad idea for any competitor. Unless the theme is "Winning." :)

I've been swapping around the UU's. Not much of a theme, but I really wish there was a Fire-type other than Infernape which I like. I am even considering swapping out to Magmortar.

Infernape / Tropius / Floatzel OR Golduck / Magnezone / Bronzong / Ambipom OR Lickilicky

Im having a hard time finding a common theme.
They're all weak to Ice attacks.

My current team in Diamond:

Empoleon / Honchkrow / Skuntank / Lopunny / Luxray / Rapidash

Theme? I may be in a big trouble if there's an opponent that can use Earthquake and is a part of Rock or/and Steel? Is that a theme? 'xD Well, I like all the team members and each of them has a type that nodoby else in the team has (though, both Skuntank and Honchkrow are part of Dark-type). Also, I think my team is pretty girlish - after all, it is based on Platina's team with a few adds. Yup, girlish is my theme.

Empoleon is my starter so that's why it is in my team. Honchkrow, Skuntank, Lopunny and Rapidash are Pokémon that I have wanted to have in my team for a long time and so they ended up being a part of my team. I didn't want to have a Luxray once again, but before I could even notice, I had captured a Shinx (because they just are so cute) and evolved it into a very helpful Luxio.
