    I typically use the same Pokemon without realizing it. I do try and switch it up a bit, though.

    I am extremely vain and only use pokemon that I consider to be pretty, cool and/or cute. I will not use most pokemon because the majority are ugly.

    I use pretty, strong and occasionally odd pokemon (to mix things up) But I am picky with looks and genders.

    I always need something that can fly, and something that can surf. It kinda makes me sad that I can't have a full Eeveelution team because of it. ;-;
    I usually go for Pokemon with high speed, attack, and special attack. I don't like being defensive- 'The best defense is a good offense', or whatever. :3
    But regardless of what it is... shiny Pokemon go in my party.

    I just pick strong offensive and defensive pokemon. Simple as that. But I sometimes pick cool/ cute pokemon because they're awesome. Plus, I usually have a strategy for each cute/ cool pokemon I might use.

    i'm not too picky, but my starter generally stays (always a grass type) i try to have a diverse team: grass, water, fire, some bird, psychic, and another type usually ice or electric.
    i prefer speedy and defensive pokemon. i really don't like hm slaves.

    I always have at least one water, and at least one flying, for HMs. Other than that, I don't care too much about the types, as long as I have a good variety. There are, of course, certain types that I prefer over others, like ice and electric, and some that I almost never use, like poison and ghost.

    Each member on my team must have something (other than looks) that makes him "unique"
    I mean a pokemon like masquerain is pretty cool, but it's moveset (Bubblebeam,Giga Drain, Ice Beam and Silver) doesnt really help my team, As I already got a A flygon and a Walrein who outshine his offensive capabilities.

    I like hard hitting Pokemon, most of the times physical attackers. I usually don't mind slow pokemon, as long as they're bulky, like Swampert and Blastoise. I also like Sword dancers like Zangoose (who learns it at a ridiculously low level) and anybody that can learn it by breeding it with zangoose (most often being Sandshrew, I'm talking 'bout Hoenn here)

    Sometimes I tend to picky about natures, as I REFUSE to raise a modest Breloom!!

    Also I'm usually havin trouble to find myself a FLY user, as I always used Fearow in Kanto/Johto, Flygon in Hoenn and Staraptor in Sinnoh.

    I never use HM slaves, well not as a member of my team, If I need Cut, I get a cutter and deposit him back at pokecenter in the next town.

    I usually try to avoid to pokemon of the same type.

    Also I need someone with some pretty good speed and attack stats. I tend not to use walls during my runs.

    Somewhat.

    I tend to try to make my team diverse and... have the ones I consider "cool" looking. Most of them are males. But in some rare occasions, they can be female. And of course, no legendaries.

    I always include a pokemon that fits into the category of sweeper and I always have the basic flying pokemon of that region. Thats basically all.
