Team Roster

Rather then having a single team I always use, I like to have a strong selection of trained Pokémon, which I mix-and-match depending on my preference. The listing below is my current in-game roster; all of the Pokémon listed here are fully trained (most are EV-trained, but not all).

Game Info
My in-game team varies fairly often, as I continually train and add more Pokémon to my roster. Generally, my in-game battle team will contain six Pokémon from the roster on the left, but I probably won't tell you which ones are coming out until you battle me. =D
Spr 4d 484.png This user's DS friend code for Pokémon Pearl is 3780 5509 2075.

Unless under some other conditions, I only do Wi-Fi battles under the Level 50 or Level 100 rules (Single or Double), as I prefer to lose to better Pokémon, not higher-level Pokémon.

Also worth noting, I train and battle using only non-Uber Pokémon, as per Smogon's tier system, no doubles of Pokémon or held items (if you see multiple Pokémon listed here with the same item, then most likely they share a role and are never both in the same team).
I do not restrict my opponents to this rule; everyone's free to train and battle how they please, and I'm fairly confident in my team's ability to handle some of the bigger Ubers, although I will admit, I probably won't have a lot of fun trying to deal with the likes of Darkrai and other such beasts...
