• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Planned Teams for Platinum?

Well, I think I've finally worked out my Platinum team.

Torterra For Earthquakan and Wood Hammeran
Houndoom Let's face it, he's awesome.
Lickilicky Because I adore that thing. <3
Vaporeon Best Eon ever.
Rotom Ghost and Electric. And the new forms make me love him even more.
Toxicroak What more do I need to say?

It covers my bases, allows me to use the best of the new Sinnoh Dex additions, and it includes my favorite Pokemon.

Also, I might substitute Torterra for a different Pokemon, maybe a Psychic or Ice type. Possibly a bug.
 
electivire
empoleon
magmortar
quagsire
blissey
skarmory

this is only my wifi team i'm posting, my in-game team is different
 
Something with Pokémon.

But seriously, I would have Pikachu, Houndoom, Darkrai, and some others... maybe Scyther in the mix. I'm undecided on the rest.
 
I'll be having my usual team of:

Empoleon

That's about it. I don't train Pokemon, only catch then Exp. Share evolve them.
After a while, I set out to get every_single_one and put them in my Boxes
 
I think I will change my planned team

Infernape
Cherrim/Leafeon (Leafeon has better stats, but Cherrim learns attacks sooner. Honestly, Leaf Blade at level 72!? What the hell!? Anyways, which one would be better?)
Floatzel/Manaphy (Not quite sure. Can somebody pick for me? :D?)
Gallade
Aerodactyl
Bibarel (No need for Mew when Bibarel can learn the HM's that Mew would have learned anyways)
 
I have no plans for a "perfect" team, I just want a team with pokémon I like, really.

Infernape
Gardevoir
Absol
Glaceon
Drifblim
Lopunny

Also, gardevoir and Absol is in the Sdex in Platinum, so I don't have to wait for swarms/use poké radar to get them, yay.
 
My Team:

Rotom (easier to use than you'd think)
Blaziken (Migrate or trade)
Empoleon
Luxray
Mightyena or Drapion
Lucario
 
i haven't started with a turtwig, so i know i'll have that as my starter. c:

otherwise..i pretty much make up my own team on the way...:0 i do know these pokemon should be on it:

buizel, shinx and possibly an eevee evolution. c:
 
I always plan my Elite Four team before I even get my starter or even the game.

Ambipom
Gastrodon/floatzel (I ditched floatzel in my other game)
Honchkrow/chatot
Infernape

Not sure about the others, I only tend to train 3 or 4 pokemon. Probably stuff the last gaps with legandaries.
 
I've redesigned my team like a million times, but I finally decided what will hopefully be my final main team.

Empoleon(M) Nicknamed Napoleon.
Gengar(M) Nicknamed Russ.
Gallade(M) Nicknamed Bedivere.
Glaceon(F) Nicknamed Delia
Porygon-Z(X) Nicknamed Linus
Tangrowth(M) Nicknamed Wilhelm.
Russ, Delia and Wilhelm was just names I decided I wanted, Napoleon is a bit obvious what it's based on. Bedivere was one of the knights of round table, and Linus come from the creator of Linux(My dad suggested that)
 
Aw crap, I forgot about nicknames! I think I'll call my Torterra Rithite, my Jolteon Thenos, my Gallade Archos, my Scyther either Sythos or Sythi (depending on gender), my Mantine Artinos or Artina (also depending on gender), and my Weavile Lusan or Lusanna.
