What will your team be?

[blue]

Right, Lurantis will be going straight onto my team. It is by far my new favourite Alola Pokemon and now this generation is making it seriously tough to pick just six Pokemon for a team. ;_;

 

[GMeister]

Definitely Popplio as starter. I'm going for elegance theme/route for my team. For my walktrough, I'll be avoiding using old Pokemon and giving the chance for all the new Pokes to grow on me.

 

[AliceBlaze]

I know I said I wasn't going to plan my team in advance, but there's now so many new Pokemon I like the look of. So far, I have decided on Litten/Rowlett, Bewear, Rockruff, Drampa, Salandit (if I pick Rowlett) or Lurantis (if I pick Litten) and Oricorio. Although, this may change when more new Pokemon are revealed.

 

[Rivvon]

Litten

Spoiler:

This will be the first--and I pray to Arceus the last--Pokémon game where the Item I give my starter to hold is the Everstone.

Cutiefly
My best friend.

Fomantis > Lurantis
It's beautiful. I love praying mantises. Sorry, berry-looking Grass-Type. Maybe if you evolved!

Oricorio
I'm still torn on Flamenco or Sensu style. I love both (especially Flamenco, one of my favorite music genres and dance styles) but I already have a Fire-Type through my starter. Maybe I'll use Flamenco first and replace it with a Sensu style later.

Rockruff
Still a little iffy on if this pup will come with me to the Champion's room, but I'm sure I'll use it at least in the beginning.

 

[EC]

As of right now...

Popplio
Wimpod (I like the idea of turning a cowardly Pokemon into a brave fighter)
Mimikyu
Mudsdale
Lurantis
And either Pikipek or Oricorio, depending on possible evolutions.

 

[Solar Snivy]

Something like this, though it's a tentative list:
Rowlet
Mimikyu
Alolan-Vulpix/Snowshrew (I expect them to be version differences)
Oricorio Baille Style (Flamenco)
Mudsdale
Salandit

Definitely catching these, as I have a thing for Grass-types:
Bounsweet
Comfey
Lurantis

 

[clbgolden]

More than likely/essentially yes:

Litten
Lucario

Possibly:

Vikavolt
Lurantis
Mudsdale

Edit: Am I like the only one here who's planning on using Pokémon outside of the new ones/Alolan forms? :p

 

[εcho.]

Right now, it's looking like:
Definite yes:
Alola Ninetales (oh my gosh she's just the most beautiful and perfect thing)
Mudsdale (because I can't not have a new horse on my team)

Almost certainly:
Salandit
Mimikyu

Still considering:
Cutiefly
Komala
Rockruff
Rowlet (if the leaks are true)
Litten (if they miraculously turn out to not be true.)

 

[Caaethil]

Popplio
Alolan Sandlash
Other stuff

 

[90210]

I am not so sure yet since I keep changing the team once the new mons are revealed so I will definitely wait until I see all the pokemon but as the moment, a team full of bears has come to my mind

 

[Monnotonne]

So far I'm only certain about using Rowlet and Mimikyu. But Minior / Drampa / and Wimpod are definitely contenders as well, I'll just have to wait and see if they grow on me enough.

 

[Altairis]

Lunaris and Alola Ninetales are definitely going on my team :) Maybe Drampa too. I still don't know what starter I'm going to pick, though. Litten is what I'm thinking of right now, but if the leaks are real I'm not sure what I'm gonna do LOL. Maybe Popplio.

edit: Forgot about Salandit! I really like it, and I hope it gets an evolution.

 

[Doriko]

Two Pokemons I am 100% SURE will put on my team will be Popplio/it's evolution line and Mudbray/Mudsdale.
Salandit I am about 75% going to have on my team. I like poisoning the opponent, but with that x4 weakness to ground I'm not as sure.
Maybe the new Sandslash or Ninetales, I'm not sure about those ones.

 

[Pinkie-Dawn]

What my team will be if I pick Rowlet:

Robingroot (rumored name), Salandit, Alola Arcanine (rumored to be Water), Alola Alakazam (rumored to be Fighting), Alola Ninetales, and Mudsdale

If I pick Litten however:

Panthster (rumored name and possibly part Dark), Alola Exeggutor, Alola Arcanine, Alola Alakazam, Alola Sandslash, and Vikavolt

Finally, if I pick Popplio:

Entermaid (rumored name and possibly part Fairy), Alola Exeggutor, Salandit, Alola Alakazam, Rockruff, and Vikavolt

 

[Sabrewulf238]

At the moment I have eight Pokemon that I'm considering. I don't want to rotate so it's going to be tough to figure out who gets a spot.

Rowlet, Drampa, Mimikyu, Wimpod, Bruxish, Salandit, Mudsdale, Minior

 

[Desert Stream~]

Popplio
Lurantis
Bewear
Cutiefly (ofc)
Mimikyu
Oricorio (idk what form D:)

Might be the first time I don't use the legendary although I might depending on the difficulty.

I suppose I can have a team for moon too.

Rowlet
Pikipek
Litten
Bounsweet
Vikavolt
Drampa

 

[Fayt_darkblade]

Oh man so far my team would consist of Rowlett and Mimikyu - not sure I want to send over mons till after I beat the game a few times. You know to get more than one legendary xp

 

[Sirfetch’d]

So, out of curiosity (I kinda skimmed some of this thread, so I apologize if I missed it, somewhere), how many of you are planning on putting Alola Exeggutor in your team?

I will be! I have this rule about never using past Pokemon when playing a new game but I will make an exception. Since I will be playing both versions, I have room for 12 Pokemon on my team and Exeggutor deserves a slot. Bruxish, my starter, Comfey, Cutiefly, and Pikipek will almost certainly be on one of my teams too.

 

[Lunarly]

I know I'm going to pick Rowlet/Litten (still haven't decided ._.). Also deciding on Bounsweet (if Litten), Pikipek, Alola Ninetales, Komala, Mimikyu, and Salandit (if Rowlet).

 

[Nah]

So, out of curiosity (I kinda skimmed some of this thread, so I apologize if I missed it, somewhere), how many of you are planning on putting Alola Exeggutor in your team?

I'm not gonna. I'm not into it really and the memes are already starting to get old.

Alola Ninetales tho.....
