If you want to use Stealth Rock, it should be a obtainable via a Move Tutor in Peridot Ward during the day.

Lotad had good moves. Surf / Special Water Move + Giga Drain / Energy Ball (Through Level-Up) + Nature Power + Mist / Rain Dance

You're basically 700% more prepared for the rest of the game than you have to be with those Pokemon choices, so you should be fine. My only possible nitpick is AV Swampert because of how useful Stealth Rock can be for opponents that barely live hits, but between SD / Bulk Up Blaziken, DD Dragonite, and Contrary Serperior, you should be fine..

- Blaziken - Nidoqueen (Beryl Cave) - Meowstic (Female, I'm guessing?) - Ampharos / Pachirisu / Emolga - Ludicolo (check Coral Ward) (or Location Guide) - I really like Ursaring, but you could also give Cofagrigus (coming soon) a shot

As a whole, your Team is very well-rounded, but your Movesets could use some work. Also, some of the Moves you listed aren't currently available in Reborn (through TM). EDIT: If you are playing Reborn Hardcore (which allows TM Breeding), I'll suggest more Moves based on TM Breeding

It really depends. I personally love Typhlosion because Charcoal / Flame Plate boosted Eruptions are live savers in Rejuv. Typhlosion also takes great advantage of Field Effects with Eruption, Lava Plume, and Nature Power. While its movepool isn't very expansive, it more often than not finds a way to turn the battle's tide in its favor. Chandelure is also pretty good, but it won't have the same out-speed and one-shot appeal. All in all, both are fantastic Fire Pokemon, Ty just finds itself underrated.

I've compiled a list some of my favorite Pokemon from Reborn Hardcore and Intense Rejuvenation.

Predicted Unobtainables - Gyarados - Scizor / Aegislash - Dragonite (if Rock Climb isn't available) - Salamence - Hydreigon (if Rock Climb isn't available) - Tyranitar (if Rock Climb isn't available) Is Tyranitar confirmed to be behind a Rock Climb location? My memory is a little fuzzy. I'm pretty solid on Salamence and Gyarados still being locked due to DD + Moxie and being offensively better than Scrafty I'm also solid on Scizor being unobtainable because that Pokemon would be *too* good in Reborn at the moment (SD + Good Moves) Rock Climb availability alters a lot. I feel like Silvally and accompanying Alola Pokemon will be obtainable due to none triggering the Broken Alarm for me

The Mega Kick Buff is a reference to Chie Satonaka from the popular JRPG, Persona 4 (Golden).

Your Team looks fine, but I'd recommend these Move Sets on em: Remember that HMs (TMXs) can be deleted at any time in Reborn without the use of the Move Deleter, so you don't have to carry around those moves on your Pokemon. I also don't see why you have Arcanine and Infernape on the same Team and I'd recommend swapping one out for the sake of type diversity, but feel free to rock em both!

I'll replay the game fully once the final Episode is released. I don't really have the will or the time to replay the whole game when a New Episode is released. The same factors have made me not want to do any Mono-Type runs. However, I have played Hardcore due to the whole experience being substantially different battle-wise .

Remember that in Pokemon Reborn, HMs can be removed from a Pokemon at any given time. They are classified as "TMX" and can be overwritten with any move at any time. No need for the Move Deleter!

If you want the full story, head on over to Ultra Despair Girls. After that, you could force yourself to watch the Danganronpa 3 anime. On the note of New Danganronpa v3, the game is supposedly a "re-boot" of sorts with no connection to the previously released games and novels.

My Team: I used an Alakazam before I opted to use Malamar. I also used a Donphan for a while before the Noel fight. Roserade + Malamar are my favorite duo as Grass and Poison Moves are destructive under the Inverse Field

I'd have to go with Priority Moves. While it would hinder some of my personal favorite Pokemon, it would still leave the competitive aspect of the game mostly intact. Time to place a Scarf on everything!

I suppose I'll throw in my two cents on the whole Blaziken-Infernape Debate. I think that while Blaziken is the obviously more "overpowered" one due to Speed Boost + Bulk Up + Flare Blitz + HJK, Infernape definitely has some major advantages over Blasiken as well. Advantages of Infernape: - More diverse Move Pool (In Reborn, it is very, very good for a Pokemon to be able to adapt to any situation) - More conservative STAB choice (You don't have to risk the miss of HJK due to Close Combat existing and Flamethrower / Fire Pledge doesn't have recoil like Flare Blitz Overall, Infernape is very well suited for players who like to use Pokemon with diverse Move Pools while not relying on risky (recoil / miss-chance) moves Charizard and Typhlosion are also very discounted Pokemon. Charizard w/ Sunny Day and Solar Power destroys anything in its path (although the recoil must be accounted for) Typhlosion w/ Eruption also destroys many Pokemon and takes good advantage of Fields with moves such as Lava Plume and Nature Power As for Water Starters, Oshawott, while struggling Early-Game, has a fantastic Level-Up Move Pool (SD + Aqua Tail + Aqua Jet + Megahorn)

If you want the best chance of winning, have your Pokemon be at the level cap before fighting any Gym Leader. That is as high as you can go without Pokemon disobeying you. On Normal Mode, Gym Leaders are right around the cap, but on Intense Mode, Gym Leaders are often above the cap by a noticeable margin.

My Reborn Team is in my sig. I'd love to see your take on it. Thanks in advance!

I really like the idea of investigating which Pokemon prosper the most in specific Field Effects. Personally, I voted for Chess Board because I feel as if not enough people have actually looked into the destructive forces of that Field and how fun it is to abuse.

I'd like to add that the Abomasite is also available, but not usable as of Episode 16.

First of all, I really like your team! I respect that you stick with your favorites. Anyways, I do have some suggestions:

I'm pretty sure you can only do this once you finish V9, but there is a teleportation pad in the Main Grand Dream Station the teleport you to West Gearen
