>>33316341>create a balanced team of six pokemonAlways this, though often I train even more than the party six just to pad out my time with the game and get to enjoy more Pokemon at once.
>give hms to your main teamHM slaves a shit
>catch things as you go but don't go out of your way for itI like having a variety of Pokemon ready for use but I don't like looking up every Pokemon location unless it's something I really want on my team so I just do as I go.
>use only pokemon you can get on that cartI won't use Pokemon from other games or people, but I will trade for locked evolutions or version exclusives
>setFeels more natural when I have the same limits as the NPCs, so I don't use Shift.
>othersA Normal type Pokemon must be on the team, there's almost always a normal type in my favourites for a region and I love their flexibility. No other rules.
