Have any of you made monotypes teams? What monotype teams have you made?
I joined a monotype tournament at my University so now I need to make a team of ice types

I once made a monotype team in gen VI. It was a bug mono team. I had mega pinsir, heracross, forretress, galvantula, volcarona, and accelgor. It actually worked really well. If you make a mono type team, you have to make sure you have counters for the types strongest against your own. Back in gen VI, talonflame was the absolute biggest counter to my team because he was super affective to everything, and it was almost impossible to outspeed it. I made counters specifically for him with forretress, and accelgor. Forretress had sturdy, stealth rock, and explosion, and accelgor had weakness policy endure with water shurriken. I was able to kill talonflames with the two of them.

Go with a hail team, of course! I recommend Ninetales and a bunch of strong Blizzard spammers like Kyurem and Glaceon.

I entered one of the /vp/ monotype tournaments using a bug team. I probably could have built a better team and gone a bit further but I decided to stick with gimmick Pokemon like Power Split Shuckle and Shedinja.

Essentially you just forfeited, unless the tourney is full of people who don't know what EVS and IVS are you're fugged.

Sorry man, Ice is my favorite type bit its so bad for mono type. Good luck though.

Not until this gen, but yeah, it's pretty fun. The problem is that each type only has a handful of pokemon that are actually good on it. For example, you'll never see a good mono poison team without Alolan muk and mega venusaur, or a good mono fire team without torkoal and one of the mega charizards, or a mono ice team without kyurem b, Alolan ninetails, avalugg, and either lapras or walrein. Each type's teams tend to look pretty samey, maybe with a little variation like salazzle over gengar or nidoking for a special wallbreaker on poison or golurk over Alolan marowak for a stealth rocker on ghost, but in general teambuilding is more flow chart-y than usual.

Got me far in the gym leader challenges but damn it was a cruel thing to use.

i always try to do a monotype of all good games of every type at least once
so far my favorite was ground in platinum and least was normal in bw1

plus monotype is all i play on showdown
dark is my favorite type, but normal, psychic, and poison are all strong in the meta

dont know the rules of your tournament, but youd need both kyurems and a stall arceus to have a chance against anything. otherwise, youd be ok with a standard ice team featuring weavile, mamoswine, ninetales, avalugg, and cloyster

My Platinum mono-Ghost run. (Yeah I used the Giratina. What else was I supposed to use, default Rotom?)

I had so much fun with this team, I was like a full on Hex Maniac back then.

I made three "mono"type teams: Rock and Bug. For the Rock, it's Aggron, Lunatone, Cradily, Tyrantrum, Gen 1 Golem and Rhydon. The other Rock team is fossils or related to fossils: Tyrantrum, Bastiodon, Cradily, Anorith, Archeops, and Relicanth. As for the Bug, it is Golisopod, Araquanid, Yanmega, Masquerain, Venomoth, and Forretress. I have been planning to switch out the last two with Mega Beedril and maybe Heracross, but I haven't got around to it yet.

I'm sorry man, you are absolutely fucked. You are going to have a hard time against types you are neutral to, like Electric or Bug, let alone something like Fire, Steel, or Rock. Your best hope it to rely on Avalugg and Regice to stall out some of the shit that has your number until Hail kills it. 6 times. Unless you can rely on Kyurem-B to rampage through some shit.

Most people acknowledges that Ice is pretty good as an offensive type.
The problem is just that 90% of Ice types are slow and defensive.

I agree that as a type, Water is better, but Steel has a really, really fucking good Pokemon selection. That's not even getting into the maybe-banned, maybe-not shit, like Magearna and Aegislash.
