Post your planned BDSP Pokemon team here.

EDIT:
As of August 18, 2021, several Pokemon from the Platinum Dex expansion was showcased. Pokemon not originally found in Sinnoh were also seen on Pokemon Hideaways.

Sticking with the original DP Dex till we get confirmation on potential updates? So far I think I will go with:

- Infernape (Sun Wukong/Lora)
- Staraptor
- Luxray (Simba/Pandoria)
- Garchomp/Hippowdon
- Floatzel (eventually swapping out with Palkia)
- HM slave if HMs return, Clefable otherwise

If we get the standard DP Dex in these games - Empoleon, Lucario, Luxray, Rapidash, Garchomp and Roserade. Basically my Diamond team from generation 4.

If we miraculously get the Platinum Dex - Empoleon, Lucario, Electivire/Rotom, Magmortar, Leafeon and Togekiss.

Empoleon/Infernape
Infernape/Floatzel/Gastrodon
Mismagius/Togekiss
Electivire
Hippowdon/Rhyperior/Mamoswine
Altaria/Garchomp/Dialga
 

Blaze Master X

The Fallen Hero
Porygon Z was shown in the trailer, so Porygon line was not in the original Sinnoh Regional Dex. BD/SP might have Platinum's Sinnoh Regional Dex.

Planned Team:
-Infernape
-Staraptor
-Luxray
-Floatzel
-Drapion
-Garchomp
 
It really depends on what mechanics return and what pokemon get new Gmax forms if any

Otherwise, without taking into account HMs and Gmax forms (and Megas):

Torterra
Staraptor
Floatzel
Mismagius
Magnezone
Palkia
 

Ignition

We are so back Zygardebros
Going with my first team ever even if it’s not the most original:
Infernape
Staraptor
Luxray
Roserade
Floatzel
Garchomp

Ponyta
Machop with No Guard
Luacario with Power Up Punch and Blaze Kick
 

Sarefan

Hylden General.
I really don't know what to do. I don't think I'll recreate my old team this time around like I did with all other remakes. Depends if there is a National Dex or not so I can transfer all my Pokémon into the game. If not, I really don't know. Always wanted to use a Magnezone and Weavile.

I really do hope the Platinum Dex gets used over the original DP Dex but if we’re basing it only on the original DP dex then my team would be the following:

Infernape
Honchkrow
Luxray
Floatzel
Roserade
Ambipom

But if we get the Platinum Dex then my team would change to:

Infernape
Gliscor
Floatzel
Rotom
Roserade
Porygon-Z
 

Bolt the Cat

Bringing the Thunder
I'm assuming that they're going to have Platinum's regional dex because of Porygon-Z in the trailer and because the original dex got complaints over the lack of Fire types. If it's not, then I won't be getting it anyway.

Infernape
Luxray
Floatzel
Togekiss
Rhyperior
Drapion
 

PokeMon2.0

Cramorant is too cute for words!
Infernape
Staraptor
Gardevoir
Floatzel
Roserade
Luxray
swapping around with others too
 

Giblie

Dragon Pokemon Fan
Empoleon
Luxray
Staraptor
Garchomp

If it has Platinum dex, I will use
Houndoom
Leafeon
I dont know what I would use in place of them if it only has the diamond and pearl dex

I want to recreate my Platinum team so hopefully they'll use the expanded dex:
Empoleon
Luxray
Drifblim
Gallade
Gliscor
Drapion

Have to plan differently in case they don't use the expanded dex since I want to use an all-gen4 team.

-Empoleon
-Garchomp (I always use Garchomp anyways lulz)
-Luxray
-Honchrow/Staraptor
-Weavile
-Rampardos
