In Colosseum, the Vibrava and Swablu were all I used in my first run. After getting Earthquake on Flygon, I destroyed everyone everywhere with Ice Beam off Altaria and EQ off Flygon, no exceptions.
The Johto starter was obviously quite useful, and I used Sudowoodo for a while, but outside of that I never actually used the others for more than just getting rid of Shadow.
In XD I always used 1-2 of the Shadow Pokemon obtained from the sextuplets. I once used Teddiursa, and that did pretty good damage for a long time. Houndoom obviously is a good choice, but I don't remember the others right now.
