FennekMaster Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Hello, so as you can guess I am kind of lost for what to do with my team. I am still pretty early in the game and at the point before you fight the 3rd gym. I find that this team is pretty inconsistent even if I am able to manage with this team. Anyways, here it is: Braixen Lvl33: Magician Scratch Psybeam Ember Light Screen I choose this thing as a starter after finding out that the Fennekin event was axed and this is probably my favorite starter. I find that this thing wins me quite a lot of battles and really haven't had any problems using it nor do I want to replace it. Deerling Lvl33: Serene Grace Leech Seed Energy Ball Take Down Jump Kick To be honest I did not expect this thing to be good in my first playthrough but it was and I decided to use it again. I like using it to be honest so and while it did have trouble early on, it really has been surprisingly effective pokemon on my team and would like to keep it as well. Swoobat Lvl33: Klutz Heart Stamp Calm Mind Air Slash Assurance I'll be honest this pokemon is the one of the two reasons I am making this thread because I was gonna replace it for Murkrow only to find out that it was axed. I don't have too much trouble using this pokemon but I am gonna have another psychic type soon and I don't think I need 2 psychic types. Pangoro Lvl 34: Scrappy Circle Throw Body Slam Work Up Karate Chop This pokemon is the main reason why I am here cause I wanted a Dark type and Fighting type and Pangoro just happened to be both. However, as mentioned before I wanted to have Murkrow be my Dark type and since it is axed I may be stuck with something that was intended to be a place holder pokemon. It isn't bad but I would like to have something else instead. Bibarel Lvl32: Moody Rock Smash Cut Yawn Roll Out This is my HM slave that I decided to put in my team for no real reason what-so-ever. Surprisingly okay but again if and when I find something better I won't hesitate to replace it. General Problems I am having: The problems I am having mainly comes from the axed Murkrow as I really want a Dark type and a Fighting type and I also want something to take Swoobat's place. My current team also really seems to hate Fighting types and Bug types so that really causes a lot of problem I am having. It also wouldn't hurt to replace Bibarel to free up a slot in my team. I would love some advice on what to do with this team because I want to have a team that isn't messy like it is right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exalted Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 there are many ways of failing to make a team it seems unfortunately you have found one of them follow these steps but dont worry its not a lost cause by far 1:Braixen evolve it ASAP easily the most useful poke on your team replace scratch with psyshock as soon as possible keep psybeam and mystical flame instead ember for now and if you have access to move relearner evolve to delphox and relearn it shadow ball. 2:The dearling is interesting for me as its ability is useless for its own use at the time sawsbuck can be pretty handy for now keep it but you may have to replace it later as to what will depend on what you want and the avalibility. 3:now if you had a Simple ability swoobat it would've been good but axe it immediately cause Klutz clocks in as one of the least usefull abilities in game and generally outside of about average speed its not so great i would recomend getting staraptor if your lucky enough with mystery egg but generally but going with crobat ot noivern can be prety effective aswell archeops is a risky but powerful alternative. 4:axe it cause it isnt as great of a battler as its for a fighting type if you want Hitmonlee or machamp(No guard+Dynamic punch) are better but if you want a dark type Krokodile(moxie) all the way. 5:its an HM slave. 6:Now seeing you dont have an electric or water type i personally say get one of jolteon vaporeion or menetric Sylveon can act as a great 6 slot pokemon to but ill recomend you see which mystery egg you got this can alter your team quite a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FennekMaster Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) This helped quite a bit and I have hatched my mystery egg. It turned out to be a Vullaby. Edited March 13, 2016 by FennekMaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanananaK Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 This helped quite a bit and I have hatched my mystery egg. It turned out to be a Vullaby. If you're willing to breed it I'd trade you a lot for it. I have 4-5 different starters and mystery eggs and a plethora of solid EV shinies. >.> (If you didn't know, there's a Rejuvenation Trading Thread that helps people trade via save manipulation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shing Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Zubat---->Crobat. It's the best pokemon to hit against bug and fighting and it's super fast. With acrobaties and no items, it's a monster. And with moves, it's one of the best pokemon in reju btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
