"Strong pokemon, weak pokemon... that is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with thier favorites"
Yes Karen, I agree
My Favorite are strong not weak Pokemon
I'm kidding tho 😂 I do use my Favorites
I will say, I think this quote in game changed how I played for future games. If I ever said "Oh, I like this mon!", I used it.
This is exactly how I play the game
" i also notice that there is no ground type..."
Tortera : " am i a joke to you?"
EXACTLY the joke i was gonna make 😁👍

Mikey: “No Flying type stab.”
Togekiss: “Am I a joke to you?”

Drifblim is very good, especially In Nuzlocke/, with a few easy to find heart scales you can give it strength sap and minimize. It can also support the team with tail wind. Also it can set up and baton pass to others. It gets electric and psychic coverage, but it’s main tanky stall position is what’s so good about it
AGREED!
Elite Four Flint saw this comment
We don't use the word its as a pronoun if there's an apostrophe in it.
i remember my first sword playthrough and i went and tested my team, and i did not realize i chose a great defensive team before i knew anything about type matchups
"No I will not put on a shirt!"
Didn't know Grunty Boy was a Water type trainer
Hoenn natives, amirite? He just has a bunch of Carvannas.

When Mikey says : there isnt any ground type. "torterra sitting in the back with its grass ground type" I'm not even here baby.
John Cena Pops up:- you are more invisible than me
My playthrough team was Torterra, Staraptor, Luxray, Gastrodon East Sea, Yanmega and Bronzong and I was amazed how well it worked. Yanmega is a standout how much it surprised me
My team was Gardevoir, Infernape, Gyarados, Roserade, Weavile, and Garchomp. It was a pretty nice team, which easily handled Cynthia's team with relative ease.

Beef (Garchomp)
Cucumber (Gallade)
I had food as a nickname pattern

Damn, Torterra is getting neglected by Mikey A LOT isn't it??
@@amasthedude1387 he even loves torterra!
Don't steal comments
Yeah he adores torterra
15:38 I love how I used the same team I actually used Gardevoir and Luxray instead of Mismagius and Magnezone
Wow! A lot of these teams are so interesting, filled with many unique and great pokemon! The team I think I will go for is: Infernape, Togekiss, Gastrodon, Magnezone, Weavile and Garchomp.
I like how he is more concerned of the fact that grunty boy has no shirt on, than that he just stole his deodorant
Perfect
Missing the best team:
All three forms of Wormadam. Twice!
I have never expected that
I used to have a weird attachment to wormadam. Idk why I can't think of anything that would make them stand out other than the form change
Burmy tho
Slap an Eviolite on them
I went rare spawn grand underground hunting a few days ago and since I’m pretty new to the pokemon community, I didn’t know how good togekiss was!
I’m currently in the elite four (I died from Bertha and my switch shut down during my rematch, right before the psychic member) and debating on fixing my team so watching this and the thoughts on it is very helpful ^^
First time I went underground I got a shiny gastrodon
I got my altaria in the grand underground as a swablu and it was the mvp of my battle against Cynthia with perish song
Mismagius is a good Pokemon to use against normal and fighting types, and you will fight a lot of fighting types (not to mention it can learn psybeam).
I think you forget it can learn psychic which is a bit better than psybeam
"I also notice there is no ground type." *torterra cries in a faraway corner.*
There is
Mikey: "I also noticed There is No Ground Type"
Torterra: "What am I to you?"
Me: "Its okay he said he much prefers Infernape over us and he called your type combo weird."
Me & Torterra: *Silently cries to ourselves*
He picked turtwig for his first sinnoh playthrough
Yes
Your type combo weird
Torterra is my fave poke so I name him turt every time
i love coming back to this video and seeing how many people wanted togekiss....not being able to find out cynthias garchomp knew poison jab until it was toooo late XD
I think I did pretty good with my team, only having the overlap for fighting. Having empoleon, lopunny, absol, altaria, luxray, and staraptor. Yes, altaria. you can get a swablu from the underground pretty early if you are lucky enough
I did that and altaria beat Cynthia’s Garchomp with perish song. I got that idea from a friend
We need a video on Mikey's second channel of 'Beating Pokémon Brillaint Diamond with the only 10/10 team from my 'I Rate Your Teams for Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl''
Or a video saying 'pokemon that you probably like that I hate' like the opposite of the one before

Wait that's mikey?
Infernape, Luxray, and Staraptor are the ones I keep in my party if it is a Sinnoh game. In my opinion I think Infernape, Luxray and Staraptor are a great trio because they look badass
In the Missmagius team, you would use her if they switch a fighting type into weavile as that is a 4x weakness swapped for an immunity to fighting
Also ghost is better offensive coverage

Yoo, great video and I wanted to ask if you could do this for gen 3. More specifically emerald ruby and sapphire (no remakes)
"Strong Pokemon, weak Pokemon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favourites"
and for this reason i will go with my ORIGINAL team from platinum when i was a child
Raichu - used copy of the game so he was just chillin
Staraptor - My favorite pokemon of all time tied with wigglytuff
Vaporeon - my first eeveelution
Jolteon - always paired with vaporeon
Gastrodon - great boi (in the remakes i might replace with empoleon. since it was used copy i didnt select a starter)
Lucario - he was the last i was training he never even got past level 30 i think lol
Wigglytuff kinda slaps ngl
The Boi love wigglytuff and blissey.
why box your starter though
@@kallixo i might replace gastrodon with empoleon but it all depends (i never had a starter when i was a kid cuz the last owner released it or something)
I'm sorry you bought a used copy and just went with whatever the previous owner had been doing instead of resetting the game??
I'm surprised nobody said Blissey or Chansey, I recently had one, and they are very good tanks if you build them fast and you get the egg pretty early on. My only problem is finding good attack moves, but it has more moves and stuff, I can see it being very useful in the new games
Blissey and Chansey aren't Fairy-types though???
Pokemon like Blisssey, Lickilicky can be good but I want Pokemon people hardly use like the ones below.
Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Team
Most uncommon (Final Evo Sinnoh) Pokemon Team
Infernape (Fire, Fighting)
Vespiquen (Bug, Flying) Roserade (Grass, Poison)
Bronzong(Steel, Psychic)
Gastrodon(Warer,Ground) Froslasss(Ice, Ghost)
Honorable and could still be choices.
Blissey (Normal)
Togekisss (Fairy, Flying) Cherrim (Grass) Rhyperior(Rock, Ground)
Kricketune(Bug) Ambipom, Lickilicky (Normal) Dusknoir (Ghost) Mamoswine (Ground, Ice)
or even 1 of 3 commanders (Normal Purugly, Dark Poison Skuntank, and Poison Fighting Toxicroak).
@@snowland7978 Uh, Infernape was definitely the most common starter.
@@thewanderingmistnull2451 Though Pokemon is opinion-based whether it is uncommon or not, the most commonly used Pokemon was Piplup as 40% of people use it, most starters have around a 1/3 for each, they are not the most uncommon part of a game.
Idk if tms are reusable or not otherwise u can use toxic + soft boil for chansey.
In shield and sword, 2 drifblims in one team ( and very tanky pokemon along side them ) is OP in battles where abilities can be used. as long as you have a lot a lot of revives
I'm not one to plan my teams before going into a game, I just use whatever seems best in the moment, with no 100% "The Team" until I'm at the league. That being said, I did enjoy seeing other peoples' teams!
13:39 7/10 Thanks for rating my team!
I mean for all it’s worth…I truly didn’t even think about Garchomp when adding Froslass to the team. But I’m glad to know I might have inspired Mikey to use one as well! The new Garchomp killer! Mine will be named Yuki: Based on the first part of Froslass’s Japanese name, “Yukimenoko” meaning “Snow”, and Yuki from Fruits Basket❄️
Enjoy BDSP everyone! Happy playing
Ur team is great man I really like how u chose sm underrated mone
Honestly If I get one of the games I think I might use that team.
It's a very good team.
Froslass deserves all of the love! It's my personal favorite pokemon, and she's always been my little dragon slayer. Even after fairy type became a thing, I still prefer to use Froslass. I usually name mine Kurara-onna (the Romanized name for the Japanese Icicle Woman)or Shiro-hime (white princess).
Lucky Bas- i mean Bisharp.I have a lucky Bisharp.
I'm still trying to figure out a 6th member as I tend to have a starter trio in my team, but basically all of the Sinnoh fire types aren't gonna work for various reasons. The only that might, Rotom Heat, isn't really one that I care much about either. I did come up with a Mismagius as backup though that one's probably redundant offensively with Weavile one the planned team as well.

What about a “If every gym leader was dual typed” video? Thought it would be cool to see gym leaders with two specialties.
Especially for gen 1, when dark, steel, and fairy didn't exist. Actually that would've been a neat idea for a game, especially in ORAS or Let's Go PE since they went deep into the alternate timelines. Instead of being grass and sleepy Eirika is a fairy specialist and is all peppy, maybe Giovanni isn't the gym leader for the 8th gym, instead it's Karen, Agatha's granddaughter who becomes the 4th member of the elite 4 in Johto games. Surge is a steel type because they saved him in the war instead of electric Pokemon, so he's got a Magneton (...or Magnezone) as his signature. Blaine was saved by a fire Pokemon who he thought was Moltres in the original games, but what if instead it was Galarian Moltres, so he's a dark or flying type user instead of fire (though that means no Karen, unless she was a fire gym leader because her main Houndoom is fire dark, and yes this also means some Johto Pokemon should be in it OF WHICH LET'S GO SHOULD'VE DONE, FRLG did it).
I also left feedback for BDSP back when the 1st trailer came out, because it looks like a copy paste DP (so far still does outside of small touches). One suggestion I made was maybe Flint is the 8th gym leader while Volkner took his spot in the elite 4, because we got there too late, or their roles just swapped because they are best friends and rivals, Volkner just beat him to the elite 4 in some alternate timeline. That also means Sunnyshore isn't as advanced since Volkner doesn't have time to tinker and isn't home as much.
i would love to see a ground/fire or fire/ghost
Loomian legacy:
You mean like chandelure?
There would be no balance in the force
I can vouch for Togekiss, used one on my team for SP and he was easily the MVP especially against Cynthia.
Froslass is a beast as well. Mine got Timid nature 😂
I beat Cynthia's team with only kricketune, setting up on the spiritomb and it had metronome item and the moves double team, swords dance, substitute and x-scissor mwahahaha. Super powerful x-scissor and I outsped four and and man double team is nice.
Best Pokémon against nearly everything: Cradily
My Gyarados easily negated Garchomp's powers with repeatedly dropping the attack
Here is an easy win use dragon Dance gyrados
I'm currently playing through BDSP (again). But this time I have Shining Pearl on my normal Switch, and Brilliant Diamond on my Switch OLED. Here are my teams:
SP: Infernape, Alakazam, Gengar, Gastrodon (West Sea), Togetic, and Drapion.
BD: Infernape, Cherrim, Skuntank, Golduck, Garchomp, and Mamoswine.
(I know Infernape, Luxray, Crobat are same, and I used Crobat and Luxray in my last playthrough. But Infernape is the one Sinnoh starter I haven't used, and I felt like I needed an Electric-type and a Flying-type on my team for both playthroughs.)
I basically tried to go for Pokemon I haven't used before. (Getting Alakazam and Gengar was pretty easy, since I have both games on 2 separate consoles.)
Edit: I realized that with Infernape, there was no need for Crobat. (Added Crobat back into the party.)
Edit 2: Just recently caught Dialga/Palkia. Didn't add them to the party since I have already have used them before.
Edit 3: I know Garchomp and Gastrodon are the same, but I have never used either of them before. So now, 5 of the 6 are the same between both games.
Edit 4: Changed my teams to ones that I think would be best suited to take on the Elite 4.
Edit 5: Beat the Pokemon League and got the National Dex in both games.
Now that I have the Grand Underground to help me, I'm showing the Elite 4's Flint how it's done and doing a mono Fire run.
Tip: Gallade can set up trick room for torterra to deal with most of those pesky faster water types more easily, and since that team has 3 pokemon in Torterra, drifblim and Bastiodon that are slow bois, it covers them nicely in other situations too
Yea but the high base power physical grass move is wood hammer that also do serious recoil damage and torterra is a physical attacker , there arent any good physical grass attack before that , since its gen 8 maybe it will have 80 base power seed bomb. Yea i forgot its probably gen 8 level up set.
Sorry but i think you are intense in knowledge for pokemon
You could also give gallade leafblade to deal with the water types

I know this is old but I came up with a team I think would get a 10/10: Infernape, Togekiss, Bastiodon, Roserade, Weavile, and Gastrodon. No more than 2 weaknesses to a single type, resists or immunities for everything, a mix of speed and bulk with answers for Garchomp, and STAB coverage for everything in the game. The only potential issues I can see with it are requiring 2 Shiny Stones + a Razor Claw, and Bastiodon is Pearl exclusive (I would’ve used Aggron since it’s cooler but that’s postgame). Also Weavile is lategame so it’s not around for Fantina where it’d be really helpful.
12:23
Tortera: do I not mean anything to you?
I may do a grass only play through- sinnoh has crazy grass types
Torterra
Roserade
Tangrowth
Abomasnow
Carnivine
Edit : rotom lawn mower
Just be sure to give the team as much move coverage as possible. Friendly reminder since grass has at least 5 weaknesses.
I think you should do playthrough using normal types cause grass is gonna give you a lot of trouble
Oh wow. Well, good luck to you I guess. Could be a good challenge
@@vcheese9927 that’s the fun part
Really tried to sneak carnivine in there huh
Togekiss can learn Aura Sphere, which can crush the steel types, especially since Togekiss is fast and a great Special Attacker.
Yes but as a fairy type in later games, it is also weak to steel so while it will most definately outspeed most, if not all steel types, if it get paralysed for a turn or misses or is confused or it against something with study of anything that can prevent it from OHKOing it's probably gunna get OHKO'd right back against steels... I know it's pretty tanky but steel types can hit like a truck. Also a lot of steel types can also learn rock moves which it is also weak too.
@@kitsu1379 why would rock be important? Sure its super effective but Steel type gets STAB so it does way more than rock does
@@Pinecrystal Just meant it's another type Togekiss is weak too is all
@@kitsu1379 I know that but im asking.....ok never mind
@@Pinecrystal Do you mean why I mentioned it with the steel types? It's coz a lot of steel types moves, at least in the games I've played, tend to be learnt at pretty high levels so they're less of a threat at earlier levels, however rock type moves are pretty common not only on rock types but on steel types, ground types, fighting types and so on. I dunno if the switch games changed that and had more early level steel moves, if they have then just ignore me mentioning rock types.
I haven't played a Sinnoh game in a while tbh. When i did, i chose Piplup, but after rethinking over the last decade or so, I'd like to try it with Infernape, Floatzel, Roserade, Luxray, Staraptor, and Lucario
GGallade
can also be used for water tips because it can use leaf blade
TYPES, NOT TIPS! FIX IT NOW!
Seeing the teams in the type coverage chart makes me wonder what the worst type for a playthrough would be based off of what your opponents are supper effective against.
That could be a fun challenge
Ice
Poison is pretty awful in Sinnoh. Team Galactic members mainly use Steel and Poison types, there’s Roark, Fantina, Byron, Bertha, Lucian, most of Cynthia’s team and a smattering of onesies and twosies like Wake’s Quagsire, Maylene’s Lucario, etc.

@@D4VID9724 offensively anyway. Defensively, it’s normally decent when paired with another type, but Sinnoh is quite unkind with the wide number of steel, poison, ground and psychic types.
Mismagius has great coverage and pretty good special and speed stats. It can learn Dazzling Gleam, Energy Ball, Thunderbolt or even Power Gem or Mystical Fire for a counter to many types. I found it better than I thought and one of my main pokemon I used in my playthrough. Don't underestimate em till you try em.
Mismagius is one of my favorite Pokemon. If i can get my hands on her, shell be in my team, every run.... ;)
I didn't use it in my Shining Pearl playthrough, but maybe I'll use it in Legends Arceus if it's going to be on the game. I also rly want to try weavile sometime and a ferrathorn.
My Team ( With Nicknames )
Is Ifrit The Infernape
Riley The Lucario
Ace The Quagsire
Sprinkles The Togekiss
Dust Storm The Garchomp
Chronus The Dialga
( I'm Gonna Struggle Against Cynthia's Competitive Pokemon She Just Got WAAAAYYYYY Harder )
My team would be garchomp gallade frosslass infernape togekiss and toxicroak
They are my favourite pokemon avalible in sinnoh
That wink scares me
When grungy boy yelled incredible he sounded like someone making an amazing discovery
I used to want a togekiss instead of staraptor, until the very first Pokémon I caught. This starkly I named burn. I grew an attachment to it
Mikey: I also noticed there's no ground type Torterra: am I a joke to you?
I have an insanely original idea: infernape, luxray, staraptor, garchomp, lucario, togekiss. Wow nobody has ever used that.
ikr
So original
Overall,and not worrying about defense,the team is strong,the Pokémon are strong,but you don’t have offensive stab for ground and psychic,both of which have elite four,and you don’t fair well defensively well against ice and ground,I recommend switching out staraptor for weavile,it’s not weak to Ice or ground,which sure,eliminates an immunity for stab coverage,but that would give you a stab súper effective the two types that you don’t have stab for,that would fix a lot of problems,mainly since having staraptor and togekiss in the same team is redundant unless you worry about backup,
I used Floatzel instead of togekiss, which is even more original, I know. I’m a genius.
I used Gastreodon insted of folatzel!
I wanted to say my team...because it fits with the theme of the video.
guess i'd do it here.
(and I have also never played through Sinnoh before)
Infernape, Staraptor, Roserade, Luxray, Gastrodon, and either Clefable or Weavile. (I wasn't sure which one would have better coverage. Plus I have never used either of these two before, and I wanted to see how i'd do with it.)
Also, yes I know I am using 4 of the generic 6. I only dont have Garchomp because I forgot about Wayward cave lol.
Mikey: Spirittomb is hopefully going to be easier to get in bdsp
Spirittomb: No, but you can have fun suffering while you find my bottom half, and fail to dig it out :D
When did he get a beard-
Edit: He Reclaimed *(meant to write raised lol)* His role as hottest poketuber
Edit 2: guys, he didn’t loose it.
He just got hotter, so his rank was somehow raised. Also he gets extra hot points for- wait no that was grunty boi, sorry.
That’s what I was thinking
Never lost it!
That would implie he lost it at one point
When did he lost it tho?
Man I wish I had that beard for myself
00:51 Sure Empoleon can't fly, BUT are you not gonna cut him any slack for choosing the starter that is a BIRD?
I was thinking the exact god damn thing XD
This man didn't choose torchic for the first team sky video and he hates enpoleon
@@RoyalTraint the thing with that is that Blazikin can learn BRAVE BIRD! Cmon Mikey!
@@themememanbird9931 not in Gen 3, it can't. He played emerald for that first video.
@@madethistocomment727 oh ok didn’t know that it was only in past ORAS
My original team was torterra toxicroak drifblim girafarig luxray floatzel. But on my second playthrough (get ready) milotic donphan cumerupt magnezone myghtyena gastrodon. The first one was prettey casual using also friendship and the second one was far more balanced: i negated friendship using herbs, i also didn’t heal that much in battle, i didn’t revive and i used more than 20 pokemon during my adventure. I suggest everyone using more than 6 pokemon you can always exchange them and make really cool strategies. For those wondering, my starter was piplup
Edit: i think friendship ruins the game. You can beat the league even without helps like those and with enough strategy the game and the league can be manageble. I suggest trying it out. USE HERBS PLS
THE FIRST U IN CAMERUPT IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN A! THE FIRST Y IN MIGHTYENA IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN I!
@@Amelia4111 yeah i’m sorry i didn’t have enough time to search for the spellings
12:23
mikey: i notice theres no ground type
torterra am i a joke to you
Whatever happens when I get the game, there is one team member that is for certain going on my team definitely.
Raichu ❤️
Raichu / alolan Raichu is my favorite Pokemon
Omg, same here! Raichu is my favorite Pokémon and I have to use one!
You spelled it wrong. It's spelled Drapion
@@tatteredshield8120 what are u talking about
@@chaysewalls5180 he spelled his favorite pokemon Raichu when it should have been drapion
I feel the need to mention that Micky when from “hot 20” to “still hot 50” with his growing beard and I think that’s hilarious!
