Stats Vs Types

[pr33ch]

Hey guys, I was just wondering, would you prefer a team with a stat advantage over a team with a type advantage?

Competitively they both go hand in hand.

As far as In-Game having the Type advantage is always the way to go =)

if you said for me, i'll choose type advantage if the battling Pokémons have the same level.
but actually, they both do hand in hand, just as what Champloo said.

I like balanced team. Stats are usable, whem you have same type and level. Opposite with type.

Of the two, type variantion causes a greater power dissonance in one side's favour, as 150vs50; statistic variation is more akin to being 150v100 with no advantage taken of weaknesses. Types are also much easier to exploit.

Well. n00bs like to go with stats [that's why they have 999 stat GS/AR codes].
However, most people know to combine them.
A team with 6 different-typed Pokémon with terrible stats is worth less than a team with 4 different-typed Pokémon with EV Training.
It's that simple.
You can't choose one.

If i had to choose Type Advantage All the Way but the way a build my Teams is Balance while ev trained Poke'mon with type move advantage ;D

Both are important to me. Also, this can apply to all games, so it's being moved.

I prefer stats 4 strongs!

But I guess it kinda goes with type too. Competatively, you HAVE to to have type advantage, but in game, anything works, (hence type run throughs).

I don't really get EVs I just try to have as much type advantage as possible. I know a bit about how to use a Pokémon's highest base stats but I prefer type advantage as I'm an all power attack trainer with the ocassional stat. move thrown in :P
