>>16546922Honestly man, no real tips are required. The game is pretty easy so you're best off just playing and having fun with whatever takes your fancy.
Now to disregard that, here's some tips:
Dont discount Bug types this time around, pretty much all the Unova Bug types are good to great.
Try to not fill your team up too early either, as theres a lot of good pokemon that dont show up until late in the game.
Consider boxing your starter; I actually like Serperior a lot personally, but mechanically they're all pretty underwhelming.
Skyla is best girl.
