Summary
In Pokémon Champions this announcement shares a curated top 30 of the author's Top 300 favorite Pokémon that appear in-game. It lists Gen 1-4 picks including Venusaur Charizard Ditto Slowking and Garchomp and discusses team-building ideas like using Ditto copies or a five plus Ditto core. Community members can use the list to explore synergy and finalize teams.
In reference to my own Top 300 favorite pokemon list, I picked out the top 30 of those pokemon that are actually in the game and this is what I got lmao I don't know if I have any synergy tho so I thought it'd be fun to figure out!

Ditto incin
Slowking - speed control
Froslas
That’s what I see lol hahah
Then Ninetails too
Or sab
I could just make a team of five + ditto and then see who I can copy to see what I need for that final piece on the team
Not a bad idea
Also for reference Runerigus lands at 88 on my top 300 lmao
You’ll see what you like

Confirm your 30 are here
I used Serebii's list when putting all the pokemon together
This is that list !
Should be fine then
I am stealing your text dump tho sorry bro teehee
For my own cross reference lmao
Hahaha I needed it I’ve been very confused lol
I have stuff for trick room and sun it looks like but nothing that can actually take advantage of the sun much, and a lot of snow as it turns out with Ninetales and froslass lmao
I swear to god regular zard with solar power hits harder then mega zard lol
I’m scared of regular solar power zard
Perhaps, I wouldn't doubt it
Solar power + Life Orb lmao
Yeah! That’s what they do next to whimsicott or something
I guess with the weather setters it’s less viable
It really disrupts trick room teams
Hard to get past that lead
Mimi incin it’s easy
But hat and indeedee suffered
I gotta make an all dogs team again is there enough of them in this game? Lmao
lol ! Possibly
Theirs a few puppers
I did in SV it wasn't very good lmao
Do foxes count?
Perhaps

I love Houndoom design
Wish it was a better Mon
In deigns his like top tier
Mega Houndoom thooooo
Lmao
Unsure about his mega !
Just that was available in 2015
I don’t believe it did much
No not particularly but-
I get it lol. Solar power Strat will be lethal
Hit so hard
I imagine
Yes. We don’t know much
Incins moved changed we know because their was nocknock off
So imagine what else has changed
I go on twitter and search Pokemon champions leaks then scroll for abit
Sometimes it’s good
I mean is there no knock off because none of the rental sets of incin had it or?
I believe someone got into the move selection on incin
Went to build their normal set
And their was no knock off
Yep
All sucks tbh haha. I do have a big feeling we have seen all available mons tho
If people have counted and there's only 151 to be found then that does seem weirdly intentional
This is what me and swerve said 12 hours ago
https://pokepast.es/1d6fa014ceb49e73
I hope we've seen all the mons I don't want to have to keep guessing and just settle on what I want to bring lol
Beat Up + Justified??? You're going to make me lose my mind lmao
This isn’t mine
But it is interesting
lol
If I see you bringing that I'm going to bring follow me with me everywhere lmao
Theirs 4 redirection mons I can count now
Rage Powder won't work on Whimsicott so it'd have to be follow me lmao
Oh crazy that’s 2 lol
Might be onto something with that lol
Imagine if they made an item that looks like those horse blinders to keep them looking forward and it had the effect to be immune to redirection lmao I think that'd be funny
I'm glad they're not introducing too much new stuff but it seems like it'd be a great opportunity to
LOL
Must be a reason there letting so de redirection mons in
I'm glad it's rare I mean I know you're a fan of Indeedee but it was kinda just like, whenever I ran into one it was like, "Okay either it or it's partner is going to press trick room this turn" lmao
In Gen 8 Indeedee-F didn't get trick room, in Gen 9 the only way to get trick room on indeedee-F was from Raids lmao
Yippee!!!
Oh I mean
I'm sorry for your loss Shiny
You can just run Male Indeedee now :)
Cause it's a good pokemon secretly
Male needs focus sash i think ? yeah I don’t like it much
Needed the setter crazy bulky
People pretty desperately try shut tr down
Mimikyu is a bulky pokemon
It will surprise a lot of people I think
That's when I start entering Trick Room Mind Games
Gasp
Just gotta not let metagross iron head it once it’s sub broken
I like this
It’s a tricky Mon
They can run scarf and it’s a nightmare
You did enjoy reg I somehow
So yeah I’m just stuck waiting an entire week now
Does Meowscarada get Knock Off still?
I'm thinking about.....

Looks pretty solid
Something else with incin to help Lucario z do its thing for longer

https://tenor.com/view/yoda-star-wars-gif-7131421628894903427
Suddenly the way this team just looks like what you showed earlier- lmao
Because if I do Whim + Lucario then I can do Beat Up Strats and I'm like "Uh oh do I want to do that" lmao
Anyway lmao

Go test it
You’ll benefit from being good at that
