DP objectively has the worst dex in the entire series and it isn’t even a competition. Shit on Johto’s distribution all you want but at least it didn’t shaft half of the type distribution in favor of proportionately more water shitmons than Hoenn.
This. I always have to resist the urge to plan ahead my team when I start a new pokemon game. It's much more fun to just use whatever you stumble upon in your journey, and aiming for a specific team just makes me feel bad if my mons aren't optimized to perfection.
Magnezone
Vespiquen
what moves for vespiquen?
also what moves would you recommend for magnezone
This is what I have. Not convinced on Vespiquen what utility will it have?
it's utility is that it's a big fucking bee that attacks with tiny bees
what moveset lol. How will it compliment the rest of this team
I've used vespiquen before I know how cool it is. But what synergy can it bring?
If you don't want Vespiquen, what about Mismagius? Gives you Ghost and Psychic coverage and it's fast (since most of the team is on the slower side)
>can't get Magnemite until post-game
>gotta get lucky with honey trees for Vespiquen
There's a reason everyone has the same fucking team in D/P.
Can’t you use surf and find them in the plant?
Only in Platinum. In D/P it's swarm exclusive, and swarms don't start until after the E4.

yea it's fucking insane how bad it is.
I like the part where they made a new Water/Ground mon and then decided they also needed to include a past one, and then another
Which one?
band wurmple
what?
>not just planning out an entire team, but also their moves
Why?

The first and last time I pre-planned a team was for Sun. I wanted to use a Drampa when it was announced.
Moves are definitely gunna change. Wanted to make a point of using Milton because I never used one before
Milton lol* Milotic
You must catch a male Milotic and name him Milton. Them's the rules.
I would recommend you switch Torterra to Infernape, unless you're OK with not having a Fire type.
but what about machamp then?
Give Roserade a try in its place.
So true.
Scrap it, here's your GF-approved DP team
use snibbity snab
Maybe I should use drapieon
tweak into the water, manip a perfect level 50 tentacruel, and solo the game with it
pachirisu
Lmao I’m tempted
Fuck it I'm gunna use Pachirisu! instead of magmazone
Garchomp
Moves: Flamethrower, Surf, Dragon Claw/Rush, Earthquake
Palkia
Moves: Spacial Rend, Surf, Thunderbolt, Earth Power
I love garchomp but I’ve used it far too many times
Drapion's great. Use him.
