I've a question for those of you who battle seriously, and take on the Gym challenges.

[Lust is relaxing in a quaint little cafe in Pewter, an Ekans partially draped over her shoulders.]

How do you determine your team compositions? Which types do you put together, what do you consider the most 'well rounded' sort of teams? Which specific Pokemon do you consider essential to any serious trainer starting their tour of the Gyms?

And if you've a theme to your own teams...how did you choose it?

A rare coloration. Midas is a brilliant golden color.

Ah. Yes, you'll want to train a great deal, you're at about half the levels of Pewter. But you'll have time with the journey.

I'm guessing the colors varying from Pokemon to Pokemon in regards to the shiny variation?

I plan to. Between the forest and the path from here to Pewter itself I should have plenty of time to train and prepare my team. I might try and pick up a couple of new Pokemon as well.

They do. My shiny Houndoom, for example, is a silvery steel blue color.

I recommend it, there's some interesting Pokemon along that Route. I found myself with a handful.

Interesting. All Pokemon have the potential for a shiny variation?

I'm hoping to find myself a good Electric Pokemon while I'm there. I was told there's quite a few available there along with Bug and Grass.

As far as I know. They're very very rare, though. I went years before catching a wild one.

You should be able to find those. I encountered mostly bug and grass myself - both of which I needed.

Understood.

I need one of each myself. I'm still new enough that my team is lacking a lot of the different types.
