Snivy Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 So, what starters does everyone want to use? I think I'll take Oshawott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kon Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 I'm using Oshawott as well. The team I have planned already has a Grass type and I want to see how well I'll cope without a Fire type. Well, that and I've not battled Cilan yet.

Snivy Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I'm going to pick oshawott because I know I can trust it from previous experiences. plus I think I'm really going to need that monkey for gym 1. not that I'm starting yet though.

Grace Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Audino! Yes, I am insane, but I think we knew that already. You're doing that again? I remember you doing something like this in the draftlocke we had a while ago... Oh wait, you did (You just didn't have Sawk, but I did.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grace Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Pidove line. I need a good member early. Not exactly what I'd call "good", there are better options. Still usable, though. I'll take the Lillipup line for my earlygame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grace Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Well, I like female unfezant soo... Fair-o. Both times I've used Unfezant I got females, and I wanted a male... To each their own, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snivy Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I really don't like male unfezant. The female is so much... simpler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Audino sponges hits for most of the game, and Ferrothorn's my favorite Gen 5 Pokemon so far. Sawk is self-explanatory. Tee-hee~! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedoom Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) I'm taking er... Tirtouga/Carracosta. :D Also there's no need for earlygame pokemon. Just solo with starter for a bit. Edited November 15, 2011 by blues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Also there's no need for earlygame pokemon. Just solo with starter for a bit. While that is true, the value of experience diminishes over time the less Pokemon you have (as average party level goes higher). Having two Pokemon (starter and a drafted) can be done without severely damaging your leveling rate (for example, in my case, I can probably have Servine/Pignite/Dewott (whichever I pick) and Herdier by Lenora. And that's more than ample to deal with her.) Three in earlygame may be spreading it a bit thin, but the value of exp increases as your average party level is lower. I imagine that three is possible, but not ideal. Either way, starter solo is fine, but taking something else earlygame may be an option. (Besides, you get more type coverage.)

Bluedoom Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Frankly speaking, none of the earlygame pokemon are good or worthwhile for long term usage, and type coverage is out of the question. You're stuck with Normal or Dark attacks. The pokemon after gym 1 are worth thinking about though( except Pidove, xD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, just a spectator who's wondering why most of the early picks are midgame Pokemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedoom Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I'd actually say both are really bad. Well, the only midgame pokemon I see are Yamask, Tirtouga, Sigilyph and Sandile The rest are pokemon you either get before gym 3, or after gym 6 I think. Joltik CAN be considered midgame too.
