you mean you don't just overlevel your starter until you bulldoze everything?

[@coopertown1493]

Its my primal recipe in every game.. But now i am playing a Rom Hack, and damm its not possible to use only 1 pokemon Since all trainer battles from the very beggining comes up with at least Two - Four pokemons Not only that they use strategys instead of just attacking over and over

[@striker0603]

@@coopertown1493 which rom hack is that? I want to play it too

[@coopertown1493]

[@ali-muhammad-tate]

[@cake4964]

Same!

[@RivasCA]

Another great video!

[@ultrashadow9551]

I personally have a core team format, 1 fire, 1 grass, 1 water and 1 electric to cover most weaknesses, my starter would most likely hold the Mega Stone as it's naturally going to be my strongest Pokemom par legendaries and I'd make most of my Pokemon have dual typing for more coverage.

[@VerzideGF]

thank you!

[@katchinaredtail5096]

just curious, could you do this vid again but for sword and shield?

[@stephendespres1743]

Great video.

[@dennisposthuma]

I like using pokemon that are native to the region and sometimes I even use multiple starters from that region.

[@basicskill710]

This helped me a lot ima go find a good team :)

[@H3XED_OwO]

Have you tried marriland's pokémon team coverage calc? (I recommend it, it's really handy)

[@youssefalhabasch4194]

[@ShampooWow]

[@briandawson7541]

thnx! :D

[@sgg8826]

Nice vid

[@xZidz]

I'm just saying that if 2 stater in one pokemon team is that good?

[@be7256]

The amount of starters doesn't change anything And in most games the 3 starters are actually pretty damn good in a team together just because the combination of fire water grass is so good

[@supernovapa6766]

You use memes like my 4th grade teacher lol

[@jayfreddacudag6171]

But both Steel and Fire type are weak to Ground type moves so why did you say that they both have different weaknesses?

[@itzlqmer6084]

Steel - fire ground Fire - ground water rock (Maybe forgot some other typing)

[@nicholasbryant8268]

Does a casual team still have to be reliant on natures ???

[@battybleck]

I doubt it, as long as the stat decrease isn't detrimental to the pokémon, like idk an Adamant Gardevoir, you're lowering Sp. Atk, the stat it uses the most, to raise Atk Why tf would you want +Atk on a Gardevoir, other than to goof around with a physical stickman But even so, even if detrimental, the pokemon can probably still be successful if in a high enough level and/or with great moves

[@Levia1han_]

My dream team would include: Clawitzer Decidueye (hisuian) Alakazam Magnezone Garganacl And finally, delphox

[@Catz780]

hehe 6 eevees heh custom eevees EHM☺

[@parameshwarkalshetti1713]

While me Charizard Flygon Lucario umbrion Last two are chosen by gym type

[@danishsanga3530]

😃😃

[@gabematthews4532]

I’d say you should have your starter, a water type, a fire type, and a flying type The last 2 or 3 spaces I say choose whatever as long as their not the same type as the others unless they have 2 types which one is different from the other

[@A_Potato42]

This doesnt get recommended jeez

[@amykate2063]

this advice is really bad I watched three times and i only had half a team
