Mono running

[Heartless]

Okay, so I want to try a mono run on Reborn. I think I want to Try a ground type run with a secondary type that I don't know yet. My ground types will most likely be Torterra, Camerupt, and a third I haven't decided yet. Any suggestions?

[Zargerth]

There are lots of good Ground-types available. Diggersby, especially with Huge Power ability, deals massive damage. Nidoking has a versatile movepool, Krookodile packs a punch with high Atk stat and Moxie. Mamoswine isn't bad, either.

Agree with everything Zargerth listed. Another good option is rhydon/rhyperior. Really good bulk and attack and a solid move pool.

I'll make sure to try all of them, but what second type should I use other than ground?

You could go just Mono ground? If you insist on having a second type, you may want something that doesn't share (many) weaknesses with Ground.

For a mono type you would just have ground. If you want to use a second type use something that covers grounds weaknesses.

Mmh. You can try water. Makes you dead against a random energy ball or something though. Ground does give you very fat mons, like Hippo, Gliscor and Gastrodon that can recover and eat hits, so you might want to do just mono ground, with maybe a skarmory as a parter. Works in sand too.

If you do go water, make sure you have a good way to take on fern though.

[Drymus]

Some other good Ground types include Flygon and Camerupt, as they take neutral from some of Ground's common weaknesses.

As for second types, maybe fire?

[bepe]

Fire does leave you pretty open to water types, maybe flying would be better since the only common weakness is ice and that's a pretty rare type.

Okay, after enough thought, I'm going with just ground types. I think my team will be rotating Torterra, Camerupt, Diggersby, Gastrodon, Garchomp, Krookodile, Gliscor, Rhydon, Mamoswine, and any other suggestions you guys have.

[Zargerth]

Garchomp and Gliscor aren't available yet. You have to get quite far in the game before you can catch Gligar, so you're better off training other mons and when Gliscor and Garchomp finally become available, just rotate them.

For early game Ground-types (you most likely will replace at least some of them later on), sandy cloak Wormadam, Donphan and Onix (eventually Steelix if you use your Metal Coat) might be worth a shot.

I was gonna get garchomp fron the Request a Mon thread for Monoruns.
