    Have you ever made any themed teams? What I mean by this is teams that all follow a particular pattern not relating to Pokémon all the time. I have made my fair share of Undertale-style teams among others.

    Other big themes include coloured teams, which are quite hard to pull off, but because of that, monocolour tournaments are quite big.

    I stick to game themed teams though, but what about you? Are there any teams that are themed that have worked well? Are there any replays? DO you do it for the fun or challenge?

    Tell me.

    ...See what I mean about undertale, its freaking everywhere with me

    If I make themed teams, they are usually either Monocolor, or a simply based on the music I'm listening to. I do it due to it being fun, since I don't like the tiers. I have this one team that inspired me to actually make some rules for Monocolor, and plan a tournament using the rules. I'm planning on having the sign ups open after there are 2 or less tournaments. Naturally, if there are multiple people who want to see it happen & participate, I'll at least consider making it regardless of the number of active tournaments.

    (I would definitely go for this)

    I hardly theme mine but on the ons I do they're either monotype or some random theme. I had one that was based off the TV Show The Flash, they were all red and had "OTT" Speed.
    I can't say I theme my teams too much but it's a thing I like to do sometimes, it's entertaining, coming up with crazy themes.

    I did a sorta Batman-Villain-themed team once, but it was mostly for the naming.

    Crobat - Deatstroke (Batman would be too easy, and that Crobat was an assassin if there ever was one, totally OP)
    Feraligatr - KillerCroc (It was him or Empoleon Cobblepot)
    Cacturne - Scarecrow (later replaced by Roserade Poison Ivy)
    Exploud - Hush
    Hariyama - Bane (This was before Hawlucha)
    SpecZam- Ra'sAlGhul

    The team wasn't particularly good. In the future, I'll make my teams strategically an see if I can just theme their names.

    I occasionally play mono ability with some friends but the teams are often filled with PU and NFE pokes which would get crushed if I brought them on the ladder. Other than that, not really tbh. I mean unless you count bringing a team of generally defensive Pokémon with things like choice band and life orbs then yeah I do that when I'm bored :P
