I'm playing Pokemon

Regular red.
My team as of right now.
Charmeleon.
Alakazam
Mew. “Hm mon”
Pikachu.
Nidoking.

Who should be my sixth and final team member? Maybe vaporean, maybe snorlax.

Take a break from the tragic pricing threads and come play Pokemon with me. Stretches feet in the room and wiggles toes

I’ve been tempted to finally give Sword and Shield a go. Haven’t been entirely sold on it yet. Convince me!

On another note, ‘Legends: Arceus’ looks very cool. Massive open world. Probably nab that one, when it becomes available.

If you have Mew in your team, why bother with Alakazsm? Or viceversa.

Go with Gyarados, Lapras or Vaporeon.

I’d change Pikachu for Zapdos as well

Gonna buy a second switch so my wife and I can play the pokemon diamond and pearl remakes later this year. It was our first pokemon game together. Sentimental value.

Mew can learn any move in the game. He is my HM pokemon.

My original lineup of red from gameboy colour was

Charizard
Vaporeon
Mewtwo
Aerodactyl
Ninetales
And the 6th slot was mainly whatever i needed to level

Looking back now i’d probably do

Persian
Gengar
Dragonite
Starmie
Mewtwo
Rhydon

Solid choices. Went Alakazam, because g1 psychic was broken. Would love to get my hands on a staryu.

Shiny starmie is hands down in my top 5 of all shinies. I practically always include one on my teams now no matter the game

I agree with Vaporeon or Lapras as well for final spot. I really like hitmonchan as well for all the punch type moves.

Went pikachu because of sentimental reasons. One of my friends passed on and he was a pikachu maniac. So pikachu is always on my team, in honor of him.

The Pikachu has to become a Raichu.

He’s super cute and chonky and you don’t have the lightball crutch to worry about.

I always evolve pikachu, but regardless, there is always a pikachu in my playthroughs.

I’ve been playing Sword lately. I was also playing Ultra Sun :hugs:

Let’s not forget Pokemon Go :grin:

I just saw the post above, that’s very sweet~ Raichu’s always been a fav of mine yet he always gets the short end so I will try to suggest him anytime!

More on subject in that case I’d have a vaporean to round it out.

I have ultra moon in my 3ds. Just feeling old school and playing red. My wife has blue. Starting to feel old. Lol. wiggles toes

My wife doesn’t care for blue. She says it’s a bit archaic. She’s right, but I have fond memories of it. One of the last gameboy games I played before I joined the military.

Oh, I’ve played Blue and Yellow too. Silver and Crystal is where it’s at for me for old school Pokemon.

I’m just catching up on the generations I didn’t really play yet.

Skipped silver/gold. Picked up a GBA and got sapphire for those CQ duties.

I liked Gen 3 too. I had Sapphire, but Emerald was pretty lit, and I remember it fondly.

If I had waited 3 months. I could have gotten emerald. But I didn’t know.
