    I'll probably update this after every gym,

    But:

    Currently on the way to the 6th gym

    Edit: Meant to update this much earlier. I just completed the 8th gym. My team is as follows:

    Lv. 50 Male Cinderace (Mercury) / Ability: Blaze / Item: Charcoal
    Moveset: Flame Charge / Double Kick / Pyro Ball / U-Turn

    Lv. 49 Male Drednaw (Knawts) / Ability: Strong Jaw / Item: Muscle Band
    Moveset: Crunch / Liquidation / Rock Slide / Protect

    Lv. 49 Female Corviknight (Clockwerk) / Ability: Pressure / Item: Leftovers
    Moveset: Drill Peck / Taunt / Steel Wing / Hone Claws

    Lv. 49 Male Toxtricity (Palic) / Ability: Punk Rock / Item: Choice Scarf
    Moveset: Nuzzle / Poison Jab / Overdrive / Boomburst

    Lv. 49 Female Sirfetch'd (Veteren) / Ability: Steadfast / Item: Leek
    Moveset: Swords Dance/ First Impression / Brick Break / Knock Off

    Lv. 49 Male Orbeetle (E-Gadd) / Ability: Frisk / Item: Wise Glasses
    Moveset: Bug Buzz / Calm Mind / Hypnosis / Psychic

    I think I'm gonna go ahead and stick with this team to the end.

    Just arrived in Hulbury City:

    Kanina the Raboot
    Cuidachta the Corvisquire
    Tsubasa the Butterfree
    Shimmer the Eldegoss
    Lita the Pikachu
    Draco the (soon to be) Gyarados/Zelda the (eventual) Gardevoir (swapping Zelda in once Draco evolves)

    Getting a Galarian Farfetch'd and some Eevees is next on my to do list

    HEAVY EDIT: Right, I'm far enough in the game that I've finally settled on a proper team, so here's my selection:
    • Courage, the Intelion
    • Roc, the G-Max Corviknight
    • Cuddles, the Bewear
    • Jormungandr, the G-Max Centiscorch
    • Rockstar, the Toxtricity (High Key)
    • Rarity, the Galarian Rapidash

    I also have some spares:
    • Mothra, the G-Max Butterfree
    • Joy, the Obstagoon
    • Sweetiepie, the Appletun
    • Loyal, the Boltund
    I used Mothra and Joy for certain occasions throughout the game, but Sweetiepie was my main grass type, and Loyal is my faithful Nuzzler that helped me catch Pokémon that were a bit too tough for a Quick Ball.

    Just returned to Motostoke to face Kabu:

    Kanina the Raboot
    Cuidachta the Corvisquire
    Shimmer the Eldegoss
    Lita the Pikachu
    Draco the Gyarados
    Zelda the Kirlia

    I cut Butterfree because Corvisquire/Corviknight and the Gardevoir line could both do what Butterfree does, better

    I just defeated the champion with the following team:
    Scorch the Cinderace (male, lvl. 65)
    Roc the Corviknight (male, lvl. 63)
    Poochy the Boltund (male, lvl. 65)
    KISS the Obstagoon (female, lvl. 61)
    Party Hat the Hatterene (female, lvl. 59)
    Osborn the Grimmsnarl (male, lvl. 60)

    Scorch and Roc were the only consistent members through my playthrough, though Poochy and KISS were both in-and-out a lot before becoming permanent members, while Party Hat and Osborn were relatively late editions. Some of the other Pokémon that I used a lot before settling on these six included a Gigantamax Meowth, Swiper the Thievul, Snapper the Drednaw, Flora the Eldegoss, Rock Raider the Coalossal, Finessa the Barraskewda, Leeksalot the Galarian Farfetch'd and a Sneasel that I mostly used for catching wild Pokémon.

    The team I used through most of the game was Inteleon, Centiskorch, Barraskewda, Orbeetle, Toxtricity (Low Key) and Corviknight. I ended up switching out Corviknight for Dragapult before taking on the champion.

    I'm at the final Gym with this team:

    Intelleon
    Grimmsnarl
    Toxtricity
    Sinistea (Apparently I need the Chipped Pot to evolve this one, which I don't have :()
    Ninetales
    Noivern

    I do have two other team members that I rotate to prevent overlevelling since the exp share is permanently on this time.
    Frosslass
    Coalossal

    I'm facing Raihan in the finals.
    Sylvain the Cinderace
    Dimitri the Corviknight (Only bitch not affected by sandstorms but who cares when that fucking ass Flygon knows thunderpunch)
    Annette the Boltund (EXP point magnet, she just gets so many all the time)
    Mercedes the Eldegoss
    Flayn the Gyarados (She's so powerful because I keep her at the front of my party than cook curry without thinking to switch them around so she's had the most curry and therefore loves me insanely)
    Felix the Drapion (Taught him fell stinger with the hopes to faint an opponent with it and make him evil)

    This is my main team that beat the original game.

    poketeam.png
    So far; Frosslass, Gallade, Bisharp, and Silvally are level 100
    Gyarados is lvl 97 and Jolteon is Lvl 85.

    I don't really have an Isle team because I swapped around so much.

    My main team when I played the game was Rillaboom, Dracozolt, Grimmsnarl, Grapploct, and Runerigus. I normally only use four Pokémon in my playthroughs since I just enjoy the game more that way, but there are a lot of fantastic Pokémon this generation.

    If I were to replay it now, it would probably be Rillaboom, Hatterene, Duraludon, and Grapploct. Those are my three favorites alongside my favorite starter even if I still love all of the Pokémon in my original team.
