Description
I beat my White a couple of days ago. I must say I love that game. Personally I think it's one of the best Pokemon games out there. Those who don't like the new generation and refuse to give it a try, I think you should try it anyway, you migth be surprised. When I started the game there were a lot of pokemon I didn't even sneeze at but now many of them are suprisingly nice.Especially the ones in my awesome team!
This is the team I beat the E4 with.
Sarosh (Samurott) - male - I picked Oshawott as my starter and I never regretted it. Sarosh hits hard although he isn't the fastest. However, he has never let me down and I can always count on him.
Castor (Zebstrika) - male - Holy. Shit. What can I say? Castor is one of my most reliable - if not the most reliable - battler. He's damn fast and his electric attacks always hit the target with a massive amount of damage. When Castor was still a Blitzle I wondered if he was really worth raising - and then he evolved. Castor has definitely proven himself and deserves the spot in the team.
Arathorn (Haxorus) - male - Originally I caught an Axew because I wanted a dragon type until I caught a Deino. However, Arathorn never left the team. His massive attack stat and awesome moves quaranteed the spot in the team. I really like Haxorus and Arathorn is one top Pokemon.
Pandora (Carracosta) - female - I got Pandora accidentally. I intended on getting an Archen because he could learn Fly but I kept pressing A until I got the other fossil. I hadn't saved for a while so I though I'd just settle with that. I planned to box the Tirtouga I received but when I was Pandora the first time I completely fell in love. Tirtouga is one of the most adorable pokemon there is! (sea turtles ftw!) So Pandora stayed. I really, really love her and her huge physical power.
Astaroth (Volcarona) - male - Now this is the pokemon I wanted to have since the first time I saw the sprite. Volcarona is inevitably one of the coolest, most beautiful and most awesome pokemon there is. Astaroth (I spent half an hour trying to figure out a name for him) was awesome when he hatched from his egg. Even as a Larvesta he was very powerful - and so cute as well! When Astaroth finally evolved I was so happy, I finally had my very own Volcarona! Astaroth's Special Attack needs to be praised, it's monstrous. Not only is Astaroth one of the coolest pokemon he is also one of the strongest pokemon I've known. I love him.
And the last but not the least
Shiegtur (Hydreigon) - male - Training Shiegtur was a real pain in the ass. Deino was, to put it simple, useless. Luckily Audino prowide great exp. ridiculously easily and Shiegtur grew up fast. He was fully evolved when I challenged the E4 and I think he could've taken them all by himself if I let him to. Ghestis was a joke, he didn't stand a chance. It took me some time to realize that those two other heads are actually Hydreigon's hands. The degisn is still cool and the type, oh, the type, is the definition to awesome. Dark/dragon. Oh love. Shiegtur is awesome. He's still stronger than anyone else although I've trained them all. If nothing goes as planned, he's always there to help me out, I can always trust him.
There, my lovely team! I though they deserved a proper picture, they're all so awesome.
I'm currently grinding for Cynthia. I got a heart attack when I was randomly barging in people's houses and ran into her. Luckily I didn't have to battle her right away, and now I'm avoiding that house until my pokemon are strong enough.
Just you wait, bitch, you're going down very soon!
Oh, and tell me if the picture is too dark. Laptop screen really isn't ideal for adjusting contrasts.

Archeops
Galvantula
Chandelure

I only wanted dual type pokemons in my team so thats why i dont have my starter in the team.

ShadeofShinon In reply to Fightro [2011-08-01 20:05:45 +0000 UTC]
That looks like an awesome team! I definitely want to raise a Galvantula and a Chandelure some day, too.
Anyway, thank you very much!

These are some seriously sexy Pokemon. They've come a long way from the days of Pikachu and Squirtle... I am actually scared of these creatures! The intense lighting is great, and the more realistic style you present is just awesome. Very very nice work!

ShadeofShinon In reply to lycanthropeful [2011-08-19 09:04:04 +0000 UTC]
You're right with that one. The new Pokemons look very different from what they did back in the old days. I like to draw Pokemon semi-realiscically and make them look beastly so that might have something to do with the scary looks.
Anyway, thanks!

This is really awesome! We actualy must have a lot of the same likes, because i'm not kidding when i say this...i have a samurott, a volcarona, a haxorus, AND a zebstrika on mine ,too! Do you liek zekrom? He and my braviary are the two exceptions.

ShadeofShinon In reply to yellowstream [2011-08-19 09:06:05 +0000 UTC]
Thank you very much!
Those are pretty popular Pokemon, a lot of people have them on their team. I was planning to get a Braviary, too, but there were too many cool Pokemon in Unova I wanted to get so eventually I never got one. Oh, and I really like Zekrom. He's really cool. :>

yellowstream In reply to ShadeofShinon [2011-08-24 21:58:56 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, he is. I actually ditched my braviary for a glaceon, once i transferred it over. The only reason i really used him was to have a pokemon with fly, but then i discovered zekrom could use it. xD

Awesome, I love this semi-real style. Your team is great, and it's good to read about them. I totally love Volcarona too, but the nature my egg gave was +ATK, which is absolutely useless when it evolves. So I waited and caught the wild Volcarona, SR-ing till I got a good nature. I was never that bothered with natures before, but I totally see the benefits now. My top dawg is Krookodile (Specs) who has a monstrous ATK. What a beast, he almost single-handedly defeated Cynthia, even underlevelled.
-I totally agree with BW being the best. I want to play again but I don't want to restart ;__;-

Sorry for such a late reply...
Anyway, thank you very much!
I haven't cared about natures before but now I've started to see the benefits. I still don't bother to get the best nature when I play a game through but I've started to (slowly) raise an EV'd team with good natures.
I really want to play BW again. I'm so happy I bought both versions, now I can start a new game without erasing the other.

Half of our teams are the exact same: Samurott, Zebstrika and Carracosta. Your Carracosta also has the same nickname as my Scolipede. The other half of your team is half of my secondary team that i am currently training. There are just so many coincidences! To me Macamaca (Carracosta) is one the most reliable Pokemon. Sure his speed is really low but he makes up for it with heavy defense and pure physical power. Blitzkrieg(Zebstrika) would be better on my team if his movepool wasn't so limited to electric attacks and Flame Charge. Blitzkrieg is good though and has helped my team on numerous occasions. All in all you have a nice team.
...sorry for the long comment, I couldn't help it. :/

Sorry for my terribly late reply. :/
Samurott, Zebstrika and Carracosta seem to be pretty popular. I've seen many people have them on their team. Carracosta is really awesome, I second everything you said about it. It's a pity Zebstrika's movepool is so limited but it's a great Pokemon anyway. :>

That samurott's expression means he either really needs to cut off the caffiene or maybe he just needs some Vysiene.

Your team is quite beautiful indeed. My team is rather crazy right now. There are so much pokemon good pokemon! so little spots to choose from ;~; sometimes I wish it was a 7-8 pokemon team instead of only 6 :/

Yeah, I had the same problem when I first played White. :/ I would've wanted to keep my Scolipede in the team but I got Larvesta so he had to go. Having more than just six pokemon teams would be good.
