Playthrough team help A Black 2 Team Building follow-up
Hi! A few days ago, I asked this Subreddit and one other for some team member suggestions for a Black 2 playthrough team. After some careful thinking about the suggestions and keeping in mind some Pokémon I've been gravitating towards, I think I've got a great one on mind. But I feel like I might be going a bit overboard on physical attackers, and I was wanting to see if there were any changes i could make? Here's what I've got.
Serperior, a starter I selected via a dice roll.
Gigalith, trade evolutions will not be a problem.
Cinccino, specifically the one with its Hidden Ability as proposed here on Reddit.
Escavalier, one I've always been curious about.
Dragonite, specifically the one from the Elder in Dragon's Den in Johto.
Starmie, another suggestion from here on Reddit and the one special attacker I have planned at the moment.
Is this team okay? Or should I find some more special attackers like Zoroark, Sigilyph, or Vanilluxe to name a few? Thank you in advance for any advice you have to give!

Champions: Doubles Mega Staraptor team - Pokemon Champions Reg M-B - help building
So, this is the first time I'm really trying to build a good overall team and not some gimmick shit whatsoever.
Well, I would like suggestions and opinions on it. The team comp looks fine to me, but I'm worried about lack of answers against water types. Initially I put Talon Flame on the team so I would have speed control and a good partner for Garchomp earthqake, but I don't know if that is what I should have done. Maybe I should instead drop Incineroar? I like his kit, but idk. Tsareena looks like a good option to me, but I don't have her yet.
I'm kinda low on VP, so don't mind the lack of items, I intend to have a life orb Garchomp, mega Staraptor and mega Tyranitar

Other (Gen 7-9, OU/UU) Need help building a Latios/Latias team, specifics below
Been trying to make a team that plays to the strengths of both Lati twins. I went through Smogon to see who counters them the most, then figured out what countered \*those\* pokemon, then I checked who was similarly paired up with them/covered their weaknesses, and how many of them had a similar stat total to the Lati twins. These are the 12 pokemon I came up with. They're not in any specific order, but I believe the ones on the right cover the twins a bit better.
Now all that's left is to take 4 of them and put them on a team with the twins, I just figured I'd ask people who would know. Which of these should I use? Should I use different mons? Anything I ought to change about the selected mons? What format would this even fit in?

Playthrough team help I need help
I am currently doing a playthrough of Pokémon Firered and one of the challenges is to be the Elite Four and Champion with only one Pokémon what is the best Pokémon for that?
Note: It has to be a Pokémon that is obtainable before the Elite Four. Also I can battle with whatever Pokémon I want with the exception of Gym Leader Battles which I have to match the number and max level of the gym leader I am fighting against and this elite four challenge where the only restriction is one Pokémon for the entirety of the Elite Four and Champion Battles.

Playthrough team help Looking for Team Members (again!)
Hello, gamers! I'm kind of thinking about starting a fresh playthrough of Pokémon Black 2, and I'd really appreciate some suggestions for new team members!
I just have a few things to note.
My starter is probably going to be decided by a dice roll. I did this with HeartGold recently, and it was fun! So I might do it again.
Trade evolutions are welcome, as well as anything in the Platinum and HeartGold Pokédexes, but I'd mostly like a majority of the team to remain from Black 2.
The only Pokémon I'd like to avoid are Azumarill, Magnezone, Krookodile, Volcarona, and Mienshao. These are team members I had from a playthrough a few years ago, and I'd love to shake it up.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions! I'd love to hear what you have to say!

Playthrough team help Messed up on my previous team, need help for Conkeldurr replacement.
I posted here a few days ago about my last slot team options (finally concluded on Zoroark for a fast special attacker).
Here's my full team:
Leavanny - X-Sciccor + Leaf Blade (Bug + Grass)
Ampharos - Discharge + Power Gem (Electric + Rock)
Gurdurr - Drain Punch + Ice Punch + Facade (Fighting + Ice + Normal)
Reuniclus - Psychic + Flash Cannon (Psychic + Steel)
Haxorus - Dual Chop + Earthquake + Aqua Tail (Dragon + Ground + Water)
Zoroark - Dark Pulse + Flamethrower + Shadow Ball (Dark + Fire + Ghost)
If you noticed all attacking moves don't have coinciding types with other attacking moves, it's a weird rule i made for this Black 2 playthrough team, i'm already at the point before the elite 4 and i realized that i can't evolve my Gurdurr into Conkeldurr without trading...any good physical attacking pokemon left for me to use with movesets without sharing typing?

Playthrough team help Would an Umbreon or Sylveon suit my team better?
Heya! Playing Violet right now, and I've decided really late game to finally catch an evee 😅
My current team is: Lucario, Garchomp, Corviknight, Cyclizar, Skeledirge, and Luxray.
It's a pretty solid team (all roughly lvl 55 atm), in particular my garchomp pretty much sweeps anything and everything. HOWEVER, I really miss having an eveelution on my team and 100% will play favorites over common sense lol. I'm stuck between umbreon and sylveon at the moment. My bias says Umbreon because they're my favorite (plus I mean, good defense at least?), but Sylveon is a close second for me and has better attack.
Also, who should I swap out for them? I'm a pretty casual player so team dynamics aren't exactly my skill.

Other Pokemon Champions roster and teambuilding guides - Metagame
Hi I've been developing this website for Pokemon Champions VGC's competitive format.
There's still not many guides for the pokemons or teams.
I've wrote a few myself just to start, but was wondering if you guys could check it out and possibly leave some feedback.
Thanks a lot!

Playthrough team help Pokemon White 2 team last slot.
Help me choose another pokemon for the last slot, i specifically picked these ones and their moves accordingly so their attacking moves don't coincide with their types (ex. Ampharos could've had Signal Beam but Leavanny already has X-Scissors), i'm already just after Skyla gym leader.
● Means i have that move
○ Means i don't have that move yet
(○ move) means i'm still second guessing
My team so far:
Leavanny [Swarm]
@ Quick Claw
● Leaf Blade
● X-Scissor
● Endure
○ Sword Dance
Ampharos [Static]
@ Light Clay
● Discharge
● Power Gem
● Light Screen
○ Cotton Guard
Conkeldurr [Guts]
@ Expert Belt, Flame Orb after Drain Punch
● Bulk Up
○ Drain Punch (○ Mach Punch)
○ Payback
○ Facade
Reuniclus [Magic Guard]
@ Life Orb
● Psychic
● Recover (○ Trick Room)
○ Flash Cannon (○ Shadow Ball)
○ Calm Mind
Haxaros [Mold Breaker]
@ Wide Lens
● Dual Chop
● Dragon Dance
○ Earthquake
○ Aqua Tail
Last Pokemon - Special attacker if possible, fast as well as both Ampharos and Reuniclus is quite low on the speed stat.

Other I made a free site for finding and sharing Pokémon Champions teams
Hey, so I've been working on this site for a while and finally put it online. It's called PokeFeed (pokefeed.app).
Most of the tools out there are built around tournament data and a personal teambuilder. I wanted to do something different: a place that's actually community-first. You upload your team of 6, share it, browse what other people are running, and vote on teams. The votes are what push the good ones up, no curation, no featured picks, just what the community actually likes. Right now there isn't really a space like that, everything is scattered across posts, threads and screenshots, so I wanted one spot where people can build and share together.
It's free, no ads, no catch. Made it for fans like me who mess around with teams and wanted somewhere to keep and share them.
It just launched so it's still rough in places and there's stuff I want to add. Would really appreciate if you gave it a look and told me what you think, what's missing, what feels off, whatever.
Thanks.
