Not sure if that's spelled right, but, regardless, I prefer a team of personally-trained Pokémon, not traded, no legendaries.  There are exceptions to this, though - in games like XD and Colossuem, you don't have much choice.  Oh, another exception: my [[Sceptile]] is traded from my [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire|Ruby]], which now belongs to my sister.  Anyway, I prefer offense over defense and I think moves like [[Tail Whip]] and [[Knock-off]] are pointless.  Again, there are still exceptions.  A Pokémon's attack/special attack will do no good if its defense/special defense are horrible.  Speed and attack and special attack: vital.

A well-balanced team is important, too.  Types should be balanced and you shouldn't have more than a few type disadvantages.  Oh, and don't let anyone tell you 'need a tank and a sweeper and a hazer'.  No, that just doesn't work for me.  Type advantages is what it's all about.

 

I will ocassionally watch the [[Pokémon anime]], but I CAN'T STAND THE [[Pokémon USA recasting controversy|NEW VOICE ACTORS]]!  It just isn't the same show anymore... But the original run ([[Kanto]]) was the best of the series anyway.
