You have to build a team using Pokémon of a single type...

You have to build a team using Pokémon of a single type... - Lemmy

They can be dual-typed, but at least one of those has to match the type you choose. What type are you choosing, and what’s your team look like? I would have to choose Bug-type, of course. Team composition would be Galvantula, Yanmega, Heracross, Centiskorch, Genesect, and Rabsca. As to why… I just like 'em, lol. I’m not much of a competitive player. What would your team/type be?

I like grass types, I'd go

  • Meowscarada for special coverage (protean is still really good)
  • Gogoat for physical coverage (thing gets a few ground/rock moves)
  • Leavanny for X-Scissor crits and Sticky Web
  • Leafeon for Leaf Blade + Swords Dance sweeps (best eeveelution)
  • Cradily for some serious bulk
  • Lurantis for contrary shenanigans

Meowscarada is probably my favorite of the new starters.

I'm still more than a little disappointed that Lurantis isn't a bug type. Praying mantises are my favorite IRL bugs, and bug type is my favorite pokemon type... And pink is my favorite color! 🥲 I mean, we have Scyther. But Lurantis...

That's a killer team, though. And grass is a close second for favorite types, personally.

I was initially disappointed that Sprigatito stood up, but I actually fell in love with the design lol Lurantis is one of my favorite pokemon, I always thought it was weird that it was pure grass type

I was, too. I saw Meowscarada and it was like, "ugh, ANOTHER bipedal final stage starter?" But... It grew on me. I like it even more than Fuecoco and co., and that was going to be my first pick for starter at the start of the new gen. I STILL have not played the game... 😅

But when I do get around to finally buying it, Sprigatito will be my bff.
