What will your team be?

[Deníz1]

I will definitely have Popplio as my starter and resident Water-type. Also, Nekkoala will be a possibility for my team especially since I am Australian and a koala would be an ideal Pokemon to use.

It's still too early to have my final team, because I'd rather see the whole Alola Dex first and hopefully there will be enough new Pokemon to win me over that I'd be convinced to use a team of only new Pokemon.

*cough, my name, cough*

I'll take litten if its evo isnt gonna be that screwed up. as im gonna take moon ill need something to light up the night ;-) (is it a possibility sun plays mostly at day and moon at night time?)

The koala is also so gonna be mine, what not to love about cocaine...eh koalas!

So if I ever get pokemon bank, I'll be transferring over a mudkip as well. That leaves 1 or 2 spots on my team. The last one will maybe be the third legendary if there is one.

I don't want to decide who to bring on to my team yet, as we haven't really gotten that much information. I think I will only know once I see all the mons.

I'm quite sure that my team is going to be built like this:

- #TeamPopplio
- Nekkoala
- Regional bird (still hoping for the Peacock)
- New Pokémon #1
- New Pokémon #2
- Sandshrew (-> Sandslash) !!

I was thinking about Sandslash due to the fact that I'll have Popplio as my main Pokémon, whose typing is Water. His weaknesses are Grass and Electric.

The regional bird would make up for the Grass type enemies, whereas Sandslash will screw up all Electric type enemies. Furthermore, it just looks sick & I love it.

I'm wondering about the regional Bug - if it's cool, I'll certainly use it as well.

 

[Kieran]

No legendary Pokemon, for sure.
And Popplio for now.

 

[Hikamaru]

I don't want to decide who to bring on to my team yet, as we haven't really gotten that much information. I think I will only know once I see all the mons.

Since I'll likely wait until Christmas to get the games, I'll at least learn the entire roster by then and have a team planned. That was the approach I had when it came to B2/W2 and X/Y, and won't change for the forseeable future.

I usually think it's best to see the regional Dex and entire new Pokemon roster first (which doesn't get fully revealed until the games are released) before planning the in-game team.

 

[Judge Mandolore Shepard]

So far the only member I know for sure I will have on my team in Pokemon Moon will be Popplio. I will wait until all of the new Pokemon for this gen are revealed before I decide my whole team. Course I did complete the theme for the nicknames I will be doing. The theme for the nicknames of my team members will be Planets from the Metroid series.

 

[Desert Stream~]

I hadn't even considered the fossil pokemon! I want a rock type on my team, so that would be an option.

 

[Sydian]

There aren't nearly enough Pokemon revealed for me to be deciding anything for my team yet. lol

 

[TheCrazyManiac]

Litten

 

[Desert Stream~]

Ahh, now there's the bird pokemon! I might be getting rid of Nekoala

 

[Bobbylicious]

I was going to say from the Gen 7 pokemon so far I'd definitely use Rowlet and Pikipek, but seeing that in writing, it's a little redundant to have two flying types. So probably just Rowlet at this point - though I am very tempted to pick Popplio since it's by far my favorite starter, but it would feel weird not picking the grass type... So who knows.

For more pokemon I want to use, I'd happily use older gen Pokemon I've never used before. Seeing Ledyba in the footage makes me want to use Ledian on my team, but it's so weak there's no point.

 

[Solar Snivy]

I really like both Rowlet and Pikipek, but since they're both flying... I guess it depends on Pikipek's evo's typing on whether I pick him or not. If he gets a new typing, then he's on the team, and if not, I might still pick him anyway.

From the pokemon we've currently seen, I think my team will be something like this:

Rowlet
Pikipek?
Iwanko
???
???
???

Of course, if Rowlet's evo is rubbish, I might pick Popplio for my starter, and then Pikipek would be guaranteed.

 

[xRiveria]

I always use Pokemon native to the region in my first playthrough of newly released games. I enjoy exploring and theorycrafting their potential capabilities in whichever content I find myself attempting in the unforeseeable future. At the moment, I've decided on Popplio, Pikipek & Iwanko. I definitely hope to see more sneak peaks of upcoming Pokemon soon. ~

That is, if I resist sending over an Eevee Egg which I've failed to for several generations already.

I was going to say from the Gen 7 pokemon so far I'd definitely use Rowlet and Pikipek, but seeing that in writing, it's a little redundant to have two flying types.

If that theory about Rowlet ending up Grass/Ground turns out to be true then it could work.

Unless your issue is with having two bird pokemon on your team.

 

[Twilight-kun]

Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Flying, Normal is usually my team roster

Depends on what the game gives us

 

[Solar Snivy]

The theory about Rowlet becoming Grass/Ground makes no sense. Why would the Grass/Flying type completely reverse its sub-typing and become Grass/Ground?

 

[smocks]

Litten, Iwanko, and Grubbin are currently my favorites ^^
(grubbin is freaking adorable, i need it asap !!)

 

[danica]

definitely gonna get myself a popplio (i might even soft-reset for a shiny, hopefully it's pink!)
...and that's it. i don't really care for any of the new pokemon. they're cute and unique and all but none of them really catch my eye. iwanko is especially adorable, but i don't really want a rock type on my team, they never really work for me :\
