An underrated team for a Black Walkthrough

[Weavile05]

I'm posting a Pokemon Black walkthrough on Youtube soon, and I want to use alot of the underused pokemon, with the exception of Emboar, as Snivy is more overused, and I have already used a Sammurott in my White version.

So you know, things like Audino... Emolga.... things like that that are underused. The problem is I don't know what all the underused pokemon are. That's where the rest of the community comes in! So some help please would be appreciated!

If a pokemon is in that low tier, can I assume that it's evolution is in there as well?

 

[chaos11011]

Yes, if it says Snivy on the tier, it also means it's evolutions. (Example)

If I were to go through the game using "underused" pokemon my team wouldn't consist of a starter, but off the top of my head would run something like this.

Sigilyph
Whimsicott
Audino
Krookodile
Meinshoo
Kryogonal

:]

Just saying, I know some of those may be more popular for competitive play, but they are still UU in tier.

I used Audino from lv5 to elite four. She is better as a support pokemon.

Yeah, the only reason I use a starter is that I'm doing a walkthrough of it on Youtube and I've never seen a LPer that doesn't use his starter so yeah.
