At the end of Episode 9 this is what I have:
Nom Nom
Female
lvl.49
Rash
Torrent
Scope Lens
Ice Fang / Rock Smash / Crunch / Slash
She can deal the damage & take a few hits. I tend to replace Rock Smash with something else at some point.
Zuruzukin (could not think of a better name.)
Male
lvl.52
Careful
Moxie
Zoom Lens
Brick Break / Facade / Crunch / Hi Jump Kick
I know alot of people use Scrafty, but he has saved me sooooo many times, especially against Shade when still a lvl.38 Scraggy.
Lily
Female
lvl.50
Serious
Chlorophyll
Heat Rock
Giga Drain / Sunny Day / Synthesis / Sleep Powder
I got her in my party & she pretty much trolls any opponent I have faced, out speeding alot of people, dealing damage while healing alot. Wish she had a better nature, though neutrals are decent to have, could still be better though.
Tager
lvl.51
Hardy
Magnet Pull
Brightpowder
Charge Beam / Metal Sound / Flash Cannon / Discharge
This guy named after my main in Blazblue can pretty much take damage & deal big damage also. Again, could have a better nature.
Mio
Female
lvl.49
Hasty
Trace
Brightpowder
Shadow Ball / Psychic / Calm Mind / Double Team
Since she first started out as a Ralts, she's been VERY frail to physical damage, more so than usual. At least she can be fast & deal some damage.....right?
Dumpster
Male
lvl.49
Timid
Stench
Black Sludge
Stockpile / Acid Spray / Sludge Wave / Toxic
This guy, since I first caught him at the VERY beginning right after my starter, he has been the star of my very first playthrough of Reborn. I LOVED using Garbodor. I also have him teamed up with Magnezone in Double Battles so Sludge Wave can only deal damage to the opponents.
Thats the team I currently have right now. I know some of them are a bit lower leveled than the rest. I've been playing Reborn since a bit in episode 7, but the rest has been through 8, I started on 9 after I beat Kiki.
I used several other Pokemon for a few important stuff:
Drifblim: Against Corey's Crobat, then swept his last few Pokemon.
Cofagrigus: Mainly used against Kiki, basically halving Medicham's Attack twice. In the next Pokemon game I'll use a Medicham in memory of the fallen.
Lanturn: Completely swept Cal & was there to give Sigmund trouble thanks to Volt Absorb.
Ninetails: I did not know at all about Dreamworld abilities so I kept it with Flash Fire. It was in most of the playthrough.
Boldore: I used it mainly against Corey's Skuntank, but it dominated Shelly. Its now Gigalyth,
Tranquill: I WAS planning to use it in my playthrough, but all its flying STAB moves are specials.-.- It was with me till I beat Corey.
Lillipup: I never used it till I got to Tanzan Cove, I trained it from lvl.15 to lvl.37 in a day, all to get a Sun Stone in order to get Lilligant.
Mawile: I used it quite a bit when I first found her & I wanted to use her throughout, but Magnezone was just flat out better in every way possible.
I've also collected only a few shinies during my travels: Sewaddle; 2 Venipede's; Pidgey; Beedril; Paras; Karrablast; Dugtrio.
To wrap this up, there was no breeding, whatever nature I got I stuck with it, admitedly I used a few items like potions & the sort, but its an RPG so I use whatever I could get my grubby hands on, & most importantly I had a TON of fun with this game, loved every bit of it, now to wait for Episode 10 to be released. Very sorry this is very long to read, I just wanted to get my thoughts out there.
