Monotype Normal run. Persian is surprisingly good, but the standout is Spinda. Watching Dragonite eat Teeter Dance, Hypnosis, and then a stabbed Double Edge was priceless. That little panda bastard is forever in my bro-tier.
Started out as monotype ground, because StormGold throws a ton of excellent ground types at you early on. I kept alternating between typed teams. Ground is a lot better type than I realized. You get monsters like Larvitar and Gible early on, but I had Quagsire and Mamoswine as totally unexpected bros. Mamoswine in particular was the only reason I cleared Pryce. Rounded it out with Flygon and Claydol. I want to like Claydol, I really do, but they're just so fragile.
Tried doing a ghost team- there are a lot of ghosts that I really love, and you can get Spiritomb early on. Maybe it's just because of gen4 move pools, but I felt like they ended up playing too similarly. Had Banette, Dusclops, Spiritomb, Misdreavus, Drifblim, and Froslass.
