Arekku_Koro Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I started a new game. So can anyone of you guys tell me a good starting team? What should I catch, what should I forget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That had to have taken quite a while to accomplish. I didn't have a Gyarados until I made it to Hearthome City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Judgment Dragon Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 By the time I get to Oreburgh on my games, I aim to at least have my Stater evolved. It is pretty much fullproof as you will always have some sort of advantage regardless of what you chose to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madsen Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I start with Piplup, then catch a Starly, then a Shinx and finally Onix.Covers type advantages and stuff for now.But while I'm in Oreburgh, I level my party to 20-30 lv before taking on the gym.xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 My team when I got to Oreburgh in Pearl the first time was Turtwig, Starly, Shinx, Geodude, Onix and Machop. Fighting-type Pokemon are just as good when battling Rock Types. Plus, they come in handy in future battles like the ones with Byron and Candice. Since Steel Types and Ice Types are weak against Fighting Types. Candice's Medicham, even though it knows Ice Punch, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madsen Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I'm totally thinking of getting Miltank. Anyone know how to get one in Platinum?=P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felix Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Oreburgh huh? Staravia and Prinplup (I think Prinplup is the evo of Piplup). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyPooBoy Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I can't seem to find a stupid Tauros -_- And Dongle to get a Gengar isn't working out -.- This is what I'm thinking: SceptileSwampertTaurosGengarCharizardBlastoise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliminateHRN Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I remember I had all my pokemon around Level 18 when I fought the Gym Leader in Orebourgh (spelling?). Plus, I had type advantage with some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyPooBoy Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 In R/S/E it's easy to defeat Roxanne because Marshtomp (Ground/Water) Can eliminate Geodude and Nosepass with ease, Combusken (Fire/Fighting) can whoop Geodude and Nosepass with Double Kick. And Grovile (Grass) can slaughter both with absorb. To get Miltank, use Pokeradar around route 210, above the Day Care city. They're rare to find.

Keep the stuff I've bolded then make a list of other stuff you might like to use, when you've done that post them to me. I will tell you which Pokemon to use and give you movesets. You still won't be very good as you still don't understand Meta play but at least the team will be eficiant enought to beat other people with as much experience as you.

Astro Dude Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Oreburgh huh? Staravia and Prinplup (I think Prinplup is the evo of Piplup). You are right. Then Prinplup evolves into Empoleon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyPooBoy Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Felix, you just said yourself that Tauros is good. Swampert has the max stats of all starters. And Gengar is mean in Sp. ATK. Not Blaziken, he's the weakest of all the fire starters.Venasaur is too slow. How about Wobuffet? He's virtually the strongest Pokemon. If it knows Counter, Mirror Coat, Destiny Bond and something else. I like Hypno, but it isn't strong.Lapras doesn't seem strong.Not venomoth.No Altaria.No Arcanine... Perhaps Spiritomb?

TrickyPooBoy Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Ok then. But Sceptile's good! And Charizard's a shoo-in. Blastoise is meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 At a glance it looks nice, train it properly and it should be win. Ok then. But Sceptile's is average and Charizard's average. Blastoise is very meh. Average Pokes don't do well in the hands of n00bs who can't train them properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 It won't happen. Feraligator is out played by Gyradose and Kingdra, Typhlosion is just one trick and not all teams need that trick to get by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
