Here is my current team idea. It, like what others have said about theirs, is subject to change.

Pokémon Sun (I plan on having this version as my main game):

Rowlet-->Dartrix-->?
Grubbin-->Charjabug-->Vikavolt
Salandit-->?

I have some placeholders for now, but I am not sure if I will use these exactly. (These are from most to least likely at this point.)

Jangmo-o-->Hakamo-o-->Kommo-o
Sandygast-->Palossand
Mudbray-->Mudsdale
Mimikyu
Wimpod-->?
Rockruff-->Lycanroc (Midday)
Pikipek-->?

I might cycle through some of these, or I might use some currently unrevealed Pokémon. Either way, I plan on mainly using new Pokémon for my first playthrough.

For Moon:

Popplio-->Brionne-->Final
Rockruff-->Lycanroc (midnight)
Stufful-->Bewear
Salandit
Pikachu-->Alolan Raichu

Last slot I'm leaving open until all Pokemon are revealed. I love Bounsweet's line so it might take up that last slot. If not, I'll be using it on my Sun team alongside Litten's line.

All I know is that my team will have the starter I chose, the Munchlax you get by Mystery Gift and maybe a cleric 'mon.

So far the three Pokémon that I know I'm going to have on my team are Popplio, Salandit and Lurantis. Aside from that, I just need to see more Pokémon (although I'm getting the vibe that we've pretty much seen most of them). If there aren't that many new Pokémon I might use a Mudbray and maybe a Vikavolt. I always try to use new Pokemon during my first playthriugh of a generation.

Now, let's assume the leak mention of players creating a league, including their own gym, is true PLEASE SAY IT IS!.

This would require quite a consideration as to what team I should form for a gym. Now, even though I specialize in Ghost-types, what truly dictates the formation of a team is bulkiness. I prefer pokemon high strong defenses and high HP. As an avid staller, I need pokemon that can stand the test of time.

If we are to undergo the forming of a league and gym, it's likely we'll be continuing the three-pokemon limit from ORAS's secret bases. In ORAS I had Aegislash, Spiritomb, and Cofagrigus. I don't intend to replicate this team, but I know for a fact I will have Spiritomb. Spiritomb is the quintessential staller pokemon, and I will always have it on my team. With that, these are the preliminaries:

CONFIRMED FOR TEAM
1. Spiritomb
2.
3.

HOPEFULS - List 1
1. Palossand
2. Silvadi
3. Ninetales
4. Alolan Marowak

HOPEFULS - List 2
1. Oricorio
2. Mimikyu
3. Alolan Ninetales
4. Cofagrigus
5. Dusknoir

A month out and I've finally good a reliable idea of what I'd like my team to be.

Rowlet
Grubbin
Jangmo-o
Bruxish/Pyukumuku
Lurantis/Pallosand

The last two depending on how much I enjoy playing with them. But the first three are pretty much guaranteed.

Gonna be starting off with Litten, and basically rotate Pokemon from there. Two big 'mons I really would like to use are Alolan Raichu and Lycanroc Midday. I'll probably also test out old 'mons to see if they obtained anything new and/or exciting. I dunno, we'll see.

I really want to do the first walkthrough only with new pokémon, but the Alola versions are tempting to say the least, Alolan Marowak is amazing and I really like the whole design of it, but will surely try out to finish the game using only new pokémon, I tried on Y, but still used Charizard at the end as Mega Charizard Y was so great for me, but this time I really want to avoid using last gen pokes.
Alolan Ninetails and Alolan Muk are not helping me either as I also love these two.

Is anyone else doing a Gen 7 only run first? And if so would you count Alolan forms as "new" or no? I always use only new Pokemon in my initial playthroughs, but I'm debating on using an Alolan form (not sure which it would be yet), but I'm hesitant.


I'm using Gen 7 only pokemon, i will only start to use older gen pokemon for ranking matches, Alolan forms are still old pokemon.

My current team for Pokemon Sun

Team 1
Rowlett, Vikavolt, Wishiwashi, Minnior, Crabrawler, Chargabug

Tema 2
Fomantis, Minnior, Crabrawler, Wimpod, Rowlett, Chargabug

I'm getting Sun of course, so here is my team.

Brionne
Jang Mo-o ( If you can find Passimian first, I will use him until I can find Jang)
Alolan Exeggutor
Alolan Marowak
Pa'u Style Oricorio
Alolan Raichu

I only have two Pokemon I feel certain about using right now.

Dartrix
Drampa

Other possibilities include (in not particular order):

Bruxish
Ribombee
Wimpod
Mudsdale
Pallossand
Mimikyu
Pyukumuku
Minior
Morelull
Salandit

Morelull is probably the least likely since I already have a grass type. I'm not totally against having more than one of the same type on my team, but it would need to be something really special for me to do that.
