Does a thread like this already exist?

I have two things I'd like advice on, either way.
1.) SoulSilver, first playthrough.
Current team is Bayleef, Slowpoke, Furret, Flaaffy, Arbok, and Larvitar. I recently caught a Farfetch'd, and I'm interested in using him as more than a Fly slave. Should I replace someone with him, or train 7 Pokemon at once and interchange as desired?

2.) Competitive metagame.
I like making themed teams, as opposed to the "let's use the same 6 Pokemon as everyone else, with slight variants in the EV spread." A friend of mine just suggested a "cute" team. What cute Pokemon have you guys had positive experiences with? The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are Clefable and Ambipom.

Pic unrelated, probably.

Alright, so you want a bug team that will only get you laughed at minimally. First thing: do you want a literal bug-type only team? Antlions and scorpions also fit into what pokemon normally considers "bug," which would allow you to use Flygon, Gliscor, and Drapion. Having a bit of type variation will help you get less completely and utterly raped by stealth rock. Speaking of which, you'll need a rapid spinner to keep the rocks off at all times, which means that Forretress is pretty much going to be in every bug team you will ever make that you hope to actually win with. Scizor is pretty decent at scaring away ghosts (and also happens to be Scizor) so you want him in too. Now this leaves you with a disgusting weakness to fire (unless you use Flygon and Gliscor, in which case it's only a horrifying weakness). Unfortunately you can not do anything about this except cry and give up, and I'm not just saying that because I have run out of time and have to go.

Hey, this could work.
Flower Gift also boosts Sp.Defence which Aggron likes.

taem advice?

I have an "Africa" themed team.

Luxray, Primeape, Donfan, Venusaur(why?) Feraligator and Marowak

Over all, Luxray is good if he can get a hit in, everyone else sucks.

swap out Donphan for Hippowdon, Venusaur(who is more south american than anything) for Rhyperior.

Or BOTH?

No.12269

Rhyperior, Hippowdon, Luxray, Drifblim(wacky African mythology, I guess) Feraligatr, and Lucario(egypt)
With Drifblim, I atleast can have him trick an enemy into holding an iron ball and then explode(destroying most of the hurr durr stealth rock strategies)

So I'm making a team of Pokemon that just kick ass at what they do.

I have Forretress, Mamoswine, Weavile, Porygon-Z, Scizor, and Ludicolo.

Having three Pokemon that are weak to fighting, and four that are weak to fire is really bringing my team down. I'd like to ditch one of the ice ones to kill two bird with one stone, but which? Mamoswine's moveset coverage saves the day all the time, but Weavile is just...so...fast...

Any suggestions for which to replace, and with whom?

No.12273

Replace Weavile with Aerodactyl?

I have an idea for a trolling team.

Drifblim w/ Sticky Barb. He uses trick, then explodes. (This stops most stealth rock teams, so far)

Lickilicky - Uses curse, then earthquake or explodes.

Ninjask - Sword Dance and Baton Pass to...

Farfetched - After being powered up, he is now a sweeper.

don't know how to finish it up.
