Does anyone think it would be a cool idea for Gamefreak to hold a contest to make a Pokemon for the games? I think it would be pretty cool, maybe give a shiny version of said Pokemon as an event.

At least you gave Flareon some love. Looks like quite an eccentric team, I don’t normally use Electrode nor a Piloswine(pain in the ass to train.). Usually people would have at least 1 legendary in their group by the time of the Elite Four. Personally, I don’t like using any legendaries as I feel they break the game, they’re just quick pills pulled out of nowhere to make lazy trainers feel like an instant god. I prefer using Pokemon I’ve taken effort to raise from a low level. I usually only use legendaries when either required or if I feel like a douche.

I actually never really made a team until a few years ago. I was one of the dumb kids who would just train his starter and give it four moves of the same type and think I’d be able to get through the game by sheer brute force.
 
It wasn’t until ’09, maybe ‘10 when I finally replayed LG and made a real team of Pokemon. I think the only legendaries I’ve used since then are Articuno (LG), Victini (Black), and Reshiram (forced to).

Speed runners do that, though. But I bet you, in every version of Pokemon games, there is always one guy/girl in the Pokemon Center advising trains not to just train one Pokemon.
 
But the one Pokemon approach does work beautifully in ingame story gameplay, if you pick a Pokemon with exceptional speed and attack/sp.atk. Screw defense. Your best defense is a good offense.

Last time I did a solorun was with Vulpix in HeartGold. Didn’t ever need to evolve Rose until I hit Blackthorn, and the boost in stats from evolving to Ninetales did the trick perfectly. She was level 70-ish by the time I defeated Lance.
 
then again johto has a strange level curve so yeah

Meh, that’s a numbers thing, unfortunately. It actually kinda bothers me a little since soloruns were always a lot of fun, but I suppose this makes it harder in a different way.
