17 trainers

[Chad29]

I don't think we have a dragon team, but we'd welcome one. I don't think very many Elite Four trainers are strictly one type teams like the gym leaders. Bruno certainly wasn't a one type trainer, as he had rock and fighting types. Lorelie was close, and Agatha did it. Lance always uses an Aerodactyl, though I think he had an excuse. Unless you'd just like to have seen him use six Dragonites.

COOL!! Can I try?

Have you ever even PLAYED D/P/Pt? The Elite 4 barely had ANY pokemon loyal to their own type. Especially Flint.

honestly no i havent played but i know that one is a bug trainer ones a fire trainer...etc etc... and all whats quoted above does is prove my point...your whole team don't exactly have to be one type in order for u to be a onetype trainer... and i've seen the teams from sinnoh the teams are mostly one type... if they have any other type its two others at the most... what exactly is the point of ur argument again?

COOL!! Can I try?

go for it

[Mr. Fox]

SWEET!!!! Here goes
Sazandora: moves: Dark Pulse, Dragon Pulse, Flamethrower, Surf
Garchomp: moves: Dragon Rush, Earthquake, Fire Fang, Shadow Claw
Kingdra:  moves: Hydro Pump, Dragon Pulse, Ice Beam, Agility
Ononokus: moves: Earthquake, Outrage, Dragon Dance, Rock Slide
Empoleon: moves: Surf, Flash Cannon, Ice Beam, Grass Knot
Infernape: moves: Flare Blitz, Shadow Claw, Thunder Punch, Close Combat
The last two are to cover dragons two weakness, and the added weakness of Sazandora.

So looks like yall reverted bak to not being all one type? Sad

It's just one idea. Here's another, remove Empoleon, and Infernape, and add Dragonite, and Crimgan. Hows that?
Sazandora: moves: Dark Pulse, Dragon Pulse, Flamethrower, Surf; Ability: Levitate
Garchomp: moves: Dragon Rush, Earthquake, Fire Fang, Shadow Claw; ability: Sand Veil
Kingdra:  moves: Hydro Pump, Dragon Pulse, Ice Beam, Agility; ability: Sniper
Ononokus: moves: Earthquake, Outrage, Dragon Dance, Rock Slide; ability: Mold Breaker
Crimgan: moves: Dragon Claw, Shadow Claw, Claw Sharpen, Superpower; ability: Encourage
Dragonite: moves: Dragon Dance, Thunder Wave, Outrage, Fire Punch; ability Inner Focus

Apparently some of them are still debating, but as far as I'm concerned we're going to go with a strict one type rule.

[deadae]

we wasnt debating for the purpose of changing the rules just to show them one type trainers use more than one type frequently in game... but sorry thedarknessinside ur team must be 100% dragon due to ppl complaining.

[Mr. Fox]

? does that mean no secondary types??? just asking.

[Frenchfry]

Having no pokemon with a second type (IE - Dragon/Flying) wouldn't even be possible without  repeating pokemon more than once. Just saying.

[Mr. Fox]

Good point.

[Chad29]

No. All six pokemon need to be of a mutual type. So a dragon type team would need to have six pokemon that were at least half dragon type. A mono type team wouldn't work at all without dual types.

[Mr. Fox]

O.K. Take two (my revised team).
Kingdra: Ability: Timid Moves: Hydro Pump, Dragon Pulse, Ice Beam, Agility; Ability: Sniper; Hold Item: Scope Lens
Sazandora: Nature: Modest; Moves: Dark Pulse, Dragon Pulse, Flamethrower, Surf; Ability: Levitate; Hold Item: Wise Glasses
Garchomp: Nature: Jolly; Moves: Dragon Rush, Earthquake, Fire Fang, Shadow Claw; Ability: Rough Skin; Hold Item: Yache Berry
Ononokus: Nature: Adamant; Moves: Earthquake, Outrage, Dragon Dance, Rock Slide; Ability: Mold Breaker; Hold Item: Persim Berry
Crimgan: Nature: Adamant; moves: Dragon Claw, Shadow Claw, Claw Sharpen, Superpower; Ability: Encourage; Hold Item: Muscle Band
Dragonite: Ability: Jolly; moves: Dragon Dance, Thunder Wave, Outrage, Fire Punch; Ability: Multiscale; Hold Item: Persim Berry
If there are any problems with the abilities Garchomps and Dragonite's are dream world, let me know if they need to be non dream world!

[Chad29]

Dream World abilities are fine whenever the gamemakers add in the gen V info to the game. Heck, I'd love to get a Politoad with drizzle.

... just to show them one type trainers use more than one type frequently in game...

I never said that Elite 4 specialized in one type pokemon. I only said that because you shouldn't take the game as example.

I'll quote myself:

Who ever said that the Elite 4 specialise in only one type of pokemon? Nobody ever said that.

I said that because you put forward the argument that Elite 4 don't use one type team.
