I'm planning my team but always get stuck on my last two pokemon. So far Typholsion, Heracross, Ampharos and Espeon are certainly in my team but the last 2 moveslots are is hard. One'll be a water type like gyrados but Slowbro is easier to catch but its slow and starmie are hard to find pre-elite four. Plus it means that I don't need Espeon but that's guaranteed anyway. The last moveslot could be almost anything. Mamoswine, Nidoking, Usaring, Lucario, Donphan, Golem, Crobat, Pidgeot, Noctowl, Psuedo-legendary, Ho-oh or Tauros. Post-Elite 4 I could add Slaking and Togekiss as well. As this is my first game I don't know much on pokemon but I do know that the Johto pokedex is the largest around by far.
What I will do differently I don't know. Maybe I'll use the Safari Zone to get pokemon like Aggron or try a speed run. At this point i'm trying to keep my options as wide as possible. The only thing I'm certain of is not using any legendaries except Ho-oh who I'm forced to fight to progress in the game(I think). My friend is training a team full of legends that pwn everything he comes accross even though they are pretty much freshly caught with a few overpowered TMs whacked on them.
