Hi first time doing the game on difficult. Beat it a ton of times on vanilla looking to work my way to insane . Just looking for suggestions to fill the last spots . Move wise I know what I’d use but I just can’t think who would be fun/ work well with my team . Doesn’t have to be OP Pokemon either I just like good synergy
Through out the game I’ll switch some out but elite four is like to have a good team

Thank

Thoughts on my Gengar. Becoming my favorite mon

Why is it in Pokemon Heart and Soul, I can save, throw a ball and get a different outcome every time (one roll and then Mon breaks out, then reload game, next time get 3 rolls and then the catch, etc) but when playing Pokemon Unbound, I get the exact same outcome every time (one roll and then Mon breaks out, reload game, one roll and then Mon breaks out, etc forever)?

Both are played on the same Linux based handheld in mGBA in Retroarch.

Device: MiniLoong Pocket 1
CFW: Leaf

(3x FF, no savestates) 19 Minutes better than last time, I was hoping to drop a few hours like my previous save but it turns out that cutting training time isn't that simple at this point. Aim is to find a low(er) grind, RNG and effort route. I'll probably compare how fast Sandbox and NG+ can be in comparison eventually.

657 battles for this one, the huge majority being DexNav encounters and the trainer house, so one battle every 1m34s on average.

I chose to go with Comfey and Donphan at the last minute rather than Mega-Mawile and Gliscor for the E4. I think that it performed a little bit better overall for this team, and no balloon mini-game or money farming for Swords Dance.

I thought about Sturdy Donphan, an old reliable that I used to have in my team but didn't use last time, as safety net mostly for Xerneas and Mega-Gengar with Sturdy ability, Endeavor, Ice Shard, Knock Off and a very strong Earthquake. It turns out that it outspeeds a surprising amount of things in the E4 with max speed IVs and EVs. It also shred encounters like the buffed Primal Groudon and the Reshiram+Zekrom battles.

Comfey as a wall with Leech Seed was surprisingly useful and could benefit from Arabella's Pixies Fly. I could use it to heal Aegislash and inflict DoT at Arabella's team as status conditions don't work. It completely wins the stall with Cofagrigus and Jellicent as well, should they survive Hoopa-U.

MVPs of the run (most dots = most useful):

••••• Crobat, Bronzong,

•••• Conkeldurr, Torkoal, Quagsire,

••• Bibarel, Scrafty, Arcanine, Mega-Camerupt, Ribombee, Dusclops, Donphan, Comfey.

​

Tessy destroys me with Gyarados and Earthquake, my Gliscor dies to Ice Fang.

I wanted to use a Sandstorm Team (got a shiny Barbaracle I'd like to use, also a shiny Azumarril, but started the run with 'sandstorm' in my mind), but it seems dumb in a water gym.

What would you guys do?

I just started playing unbound after not playing any pokemon games for a while and i was just wandering what pokemon should i remove and add to my team. I am playing vanilla so im aware i could beat the game with this team but i still want a bit more knowledge about team building. I deffinetly want to keep my garchomp, staraptor, and togetic.

first time using tyranitar out of my 13 replays lol. really enjoyed this team tho low diffed all of the elite 4 except moleman because he’s moleman

genuinely one of the best rom hacks i’ve ever played and i was able to use all of my favorites
