HelloMegan Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Sup guys, so I finished episode 17 and was thinking about doing a new run, but this time with pokemon based around a theme? So I was thinking maybe monotypes but, I feel like that's super common and might be something I do later, so I was wondering do u guys have any ideas/themes for runthrough teams?

J-Awesome_One Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Why not do a Genderless Challenge Run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSGreen Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 How about a mono egg group run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifesapity Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 My friend is doing a sandstorm run and he is enjoying it. You can only use pokemon that don't take damage in a sandstorm (Rock, Steel, Ground, Magic Bounce, Overcoat, etc...) You are also allowed one pokemon that falls outside these restrictions but they must be holding the safety glasses item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borbland Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 A Pickup only run. Not allowed to buy any items, you can only use items you got from Pickup. You can get Balls, Pokesnacks and Potions just from them and Pokemons like Meowth/Zigsagoon are avaible early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairFamily Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 You could do a canine run. Basically only use wolves, dogs, foxes, ... . There should be a fair share of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonDragon21 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Maybe you could do a Serpent-Themed Run? So you start with Snivy. Use Garados, Milotic, Gorebyss, Huntail, Kingdra, Dragalge? Maybe there are more Options, but these are the only ones i can think of right now. Edit: Man i am dumb. How did i not think of Steelix, Arbok and Vipitis. Edited January 16, 2018 by CrimsonDragon21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dartu-san Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) I've though about the feline run aswell before and it seems like it could be fun, with Litten as your starter. Another run that I will do eventually when I finish my current one is with the Oriental theme which means I'll only use Pokémon that have elements related to China or Japan, with the folklore element being specially important. Examples of this would be Pokémon like Ninetales, Shiftry, Mawile and Froslass (all based around japanese mythology) or other that just have characteristics that are related to those countries story, like Greninja, Volcarona or Serperior. There's actually a lot of different mons you could use with this theme, but at least early on there wouldn't be many options.

Ntuafreak Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 So my idea is to find a list of all the pokemon trainers that are in pokemon games (like this one https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pokémon_Trainer#List_of_Trainer_classes), pick a random one and try to roleplay as that class. The poblem I see with this is that you could get like a bug catcher for example which would kinda be a monotype run at that point but you could always reroll. EDIT: Another idea I just had is if you like fan-theories to use a team like Clefable+Gengar(Gengar is probably Clefable's shadow), Garchomp+Sharpedo(Garchomp was probably Sharpedo's 3rd evolution), Butterfree+Venomoth(Caterpie was probably supposed to evolve to Venomoth and Venonat to Butterfree based on their color schemes) etc. You could also place a restriction on yourself that you have to use one pokemon after the other that are in a pair for example when you have Clefable out and it faints you HAVE to switch to Gengar or sth like that.
