My first games were, simultaneously, Sapphire and LeafGreen. I've probably played through them a billion times. Teams represented are in-game teams, the first I ever beat the Elite 4 with in each respective game. And yeah, the shiny Wigglytuff is legit. My first ever shiny.
When Platinum rolled around though, it was...underwhelming. I was going through that phase where you feel like you're too old for Pokemon or whatever, but at the same time, that combined with Sinnoh's slowness and general mediocrity basically turned me off of Pokemon for a long time. I skipped out on Gen V entirely, looking back, a decision I regret, because I hear they really revamped a ton of stuff and cranked out some of the best games Pokemon had in a while.
I'm jumping back in with X - my good friend's getting Y for himself and said he'll get me X for Christmas - and I've absorbed so much information, I have a vague idea of the kind of team I want. Is this kind of team feasible, or are a lot of them unavailable until really late in the game?
