Hey /vp/ what do you recommend for a good first playthrough team?
>>30472724
Anything you like man. Have a good time and use your favourite bro mons
Don't get Grubbin
Vikavolt is shit and slow and you don't even get it until endgame
>>30472724Your favorites
Any starter
Tsareena
Araquanid/golisopod
Then anything else you want
>>30472724
Just use only alola mons
>>30472724
Don't ask vp for advice for starters
Second just do you, I did me and I found an even greater love for toucannon
>>30472724
Whenever a new gen comes out I always try to only use new Pokemon. Alolan forms count.
>>30472756
>>30472906
These.
But also, I had a lot of fun with Ribombee
1. Catch first wild pokemon you see.
2. Put starter in box.
3. Proceed with the rest of the game and follow your heart.
>>30472724
Don't get Pichu, not worth it
Unrelated note, I'm on my first playthrough and kinda want a fire type.
>Salazzle even though the design makes me uncomfortable
>Magmortar even though friendship evos piss me off and it looks stupid until the final stage
>Flareon
>wonder trade until I get a good one
>scrap fire altogether and try to find out what would be a better way to round out my team
Will also offer an Eevee I got from wonder trading my Pichu to anyone who can offer me a good fire type
Catch a Stamina Mudsbray on route 4. He will wall half the game for you.

Magby evolves at level 30, it's not a friendship evolution. Magmar evolves through a trade evolution. Anyway use Alolan Marowak.
>>30472724
In the game you get traded a Bounsweet that ended up being one of my best pokemon. Stayed a few levels over everything else and had such a fucking high attack.
>>30473549
>not picking LittenFire types have been getting shit on hard in the last few gens.
>>30472724
alowak is fucking based.
>>30473549
Not only is Magby not a friendship evo, as >>30473771 has said, you can also just plain catch a Magmar.
>>30473771
Do I have to do anything special for it to evolve alolan?
>>30473792
I went with the seal because my favorite water type isn't in this game
>>30473831
Probably gonna go with Alowak. Also I just assumed all of the johto babs were friendship evolutions
>>30473847
The special way to get Cubone to evolve into A-Marowak is to evolve a Cubone you caught in Alola.
>>30473898
negatory, in order to get an alolan marowak you need to get it to i think level 28, and then leveling it during the night.
>>30473847
Cubone only evolves at night in Alola, but other than that it's level 29 or some shit.
