Most of the Pokemon teams being formed have some obvious similarities in them such as the popular fire starter Pokemon, Infernape, and the fighting-steel Pokemon, Lucario. Although popular,Infernape could also have been picked for other reasonssuch as how fast it evolves. Interestingly enough though, there were a few other Pokemon that kept on making an appearance such as Porygon-Z and Gliscor. Of course, Porygon-Z is mostly likely present because of its odd design and powerful stats while Gliscor is also quite powerful, has a really cool design, and is only weak to water and ice moves.
There are also other common similarities with the Pokemon teams such as Electivire and Garchomp.Garchomp is very strongand arguably has one of the coolest designs for a Sinnoh Pokemon. Most of thePokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearlteams here are surprisingly well rounded with a variety of different types making up the teams.
From the teams that were listed, although it’s rather obvious that players will want to form teams based on the Sinnoh Pokedex, it’s interesting to see that there aren’t many inclusions from outside the Gen 4 Pokemon. Of course, these are justPokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearlteams players plan on forming. OncePokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearlare releasednext month, that could all change as players progress through the game.
Although fan reaction aroundPokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearlwas mixedupon its first trailer primarily due to the chibi art style the game uses, recent trailers appear to have garnered more positivity for the remakes. Whether it’s the art style growing on players, or the host of other features Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl will introduce, fans are excited, and they won’t have to wait much longer.
