>>35979925>If the game I'll play is a new gen entryI will use only Pokemon from the new gen
>If my playthrough is blind I'll catch things based on looks since the presumption is that I don't know their stats. Might look up their evolution to see whether I like it enough to still use the pokemon
>If game is a remake/upper version/sequelUse only pokemon that are of the region's origin(cross gen evos only count if the base or middle form is from the region I'm playing through)
>If doing a monotype runPick 6 of my favorite designs of the respective type which are available in the game i'll play
And now for picking pokemon in any of the scenarios mentioned above, presumed not blind run anymore
>Pick out all of my favorite designs according to the relevant gen>Pick 6 that are not total garbage stat-wise>Pick 6 that make for a good type coverage overall and which don't overlap
