I've seen a few threads about this on this board in the past. Will you be trading an egg to USUM to use as your starter in place of the Alola starters? Post Mons you'll be using.

I'm considering catching Regigigas in Platinum and using it as my starter.

I will use the event Rockruff as my starter. I will also use a RE shiny Fletchling I have found.

I'll be using Hawlucha or Noibat. I've used a Noibat starter twice now, but it's really fun to use.

For people who trade pokemon over as an alternate starter, how do you deal with the boosted exp gain? Seems like it would very quickly trivialize every fight and that would be no fun.
Do you just hack it to change the OT/ID?

trade it as an egg, then it hatches with your OT. problem solved

unless it's a shiny, then you just have to deal with it I guess

use pkhex to change the OT and all that, or just gen the same exact pokemon in the next game. Using the normal starter as a crutch until obedience isn't an issue is a massive pain in the ass

I've been meaning to do starter replacement runs for a while now; but just generational swaps. Like, using the Kanto starters for Johto, Johto starters for Hoenn, Hoenn for Sinnoh, etc. Anyone done that?

I usually breed a lot of competitvely viable pokemon i've never used to use and when a new game comes out I use them as my ingame team. For example, on my latest Moon Nuzlocke, I used a different team for each island using mons I bred on ORAS a while back but never got to use.

I didn't know you could trade eggs. Since when?

Anyway last time I did something like that was my X team. Had to send a female Ralts over.

Is Noibat good in-game though?

I kind of wanted to use one, but the high evolution level if kind of off-putting

I'm thinking an Hawlucha or an Elekid, btw

Noibat is pretty good in the early game but it'll be dead-weight in the mid- and end-game.

Noibat suffers from a weak movepool at first, but it gets better as it goes along. It also has an insanely wide movepool, so it has a lot of options.

>>33582777 Is sort of right though. I don't think it's dead weight, but the fact that it doesn't evolve until Level 48 means that it'll be outshined by the rest of your team. But once it evolves, it's great. Especially so in Alola, since so many Pokemon are slow as balls.

It's definitely worth it, though. I use an Air Slash/Dragon Pulse/Roost set, with the last move being whatever I need for the moment.

Nice! Been wanting to start with a pseudo for once, Tyranitar's my favorite so I went with that one.
