Make a Balanced Pokémon Black and White Team

If you are starting one of the games Pokémon Black or Pokémon White you probably need a balanced Pokémon team. These steps will show you how. Also, most Pokémon will be called by their basic form.

Steps

  1. Go to Bulbapedaia or Seribii.net. Go to the Unova Pokédex, and figure out what Pokémon you like most from each type. This will help you for your team members.
  2. Make a grass, fire, and water chain. You'll get a starter and a monkey in the game, so those two Pokémon are already decided. If you started with Tepig and Pansage, good Water-type(s) would be: Tympole, Tirtouga, or Frillish. If you started with Snivy and Panpour, good Fire-type(s) would be: Darumaka, Litwick, or Heatmor. If you started with Oshawott or Pansear, good Grass-type(s) would be: Sewaddle, Deerling, Ferroseed, Petilil, or Cottonee.
  3. Get a Flying-type. A flying type is important, because the Flying-types in Unova are pretty formidable fighters. The main reason is, though it's because most of them can learn the HM Fly which allows you to fly from town to town. Good Flying-types that can learn HM fly (in their evolutions) are: Pidove, Vullaby, Rufflet, Archen, Sigilyphl, Woobat, or Ducklett.
  4. Fill in the rest of your spots with Dark, Dragon, Ice, Ground, Fighting, or Rock-types. You might have Pokémon with double types like Bisharp, a Dark and Steel-type. Good Dark-types are: Pawniard, Zorua, Deino, Scraggy, or Purrloin. Good Dragon-types are: Axew or Druddigon. Good Ice-types are: Vanilite, Cubchoo, or Cryogonal. Good Ground-types are: Drilbur, Stunfisk, or sandile. Good Fighting-types are: Timbur. Good Rock-types are: Roggenrola.
  5. If you have any room left in you team, try Electric, Poison, Steel, Bug, Psychic, Ghost, or Normal-types. Try Joltik, or Tynamo for Electric, Trubbish, for Poison, Klink for Steel, or Venipede, Dwebble, Karrablast, Shelmet, and Larvesta for Bug. You can also get Gothita, Munna, Solosis, or Elgyem for Psychic. Good Ghost-types are: Yamask. Some Normal-types are Lillipup, Patrat, Audino, Minccino, or Bouffalant.
  6. Make sure your team is well-balanced and can face a lot of types. As an example, we will post our team: Haxorus, Emboar, Gothitelle, Simisage, Mandibuzz, and Seismitoad.

Tips

  • Train. Run along the grass until it shakes, and an Audino will appear. Defeat it, and you'll be rewarded with tons of EXP. For example: If your Pokémon is Lv.34 then go up against Audino whose level is 32.
  • Always have a sufficient amount of Pokeballs. You'll never know, when, you'll see a Pokémon you like or a rare one.

Warnings

  • Do not train your starter ONLY and leave the rest of your team more than 6 levels lower. Keep your team members' level range at most 4 levels apart.
  • Certain legendaries cannot enter the battle subway. Keep this in mind.
  • Traded Pokémon will not always obey you. If it's a high-leveled one and you don't have a certain number of gym badges for it. In that case, be careful of using traded Pokémon.
