[Trioxhydre]

Although I like a lot of types, really, maybe i'll go for an electric type team with Pikachu, Jolteon (is that a bit harsh? xD; he can be pretty swift...), Raichu, and Pachirissu, maybe Emolga and/or Pichu, too.

Electric types are fun^^ My favorites tend to be the cuties, though...lol But one's like Manetric, Zebstrika, and, Luxray are cool, too^^

Hmn, I like Luxray out of those 3. I like lions. But who to replace with him...

I also like Elekid. I know his evolutions are a bit stronger, but, I think he looks really cool and neat^^ Maybe the cuteness makes him kinda more badarse looking to me (I seem attracted to the 'eons for pretty much the same reason :3). Small, cute body. But a pair of tough little eyes. Win <3

[Icepwned]

I like my Water types. Third Gen:

Tentacruel (Toxic Spikes)
Feraligatr (bulky Water)
Wartortle
Lapras (annoying; moves like Toxic, Confuse Ray, Perish Song, Double Team, etc)
Vaporeon
Lanturn
Mudkip
Marshtomp (Electric immunity, Earthquake)
Quagsire
Kingdra
Suicune
Kyogre
Ludicolo x2 (Rain Dish w/ Leech Seed, Swift Swim w/ Swords Dance)
Milotic

Bold are my main 6. I'd switch between 'em all. Of course: Rain Dance.
If legendarys are allowed, then Suicune and Kyogre would replace Wartortle and Swords Dance Ludicolo.

[SoulMuse]

I would likely go with dark types, since with the right moves, you can cover your own weakness.

Absol
Houndoom
Umbreon
Hydreigon (Cheap but effective)
Honchkrow
Weavile

Give Houndoom Flamethrower, and Honchkrow Fly, along with Hydreigon fly and flamethrower and all of your bases are pretty much covered.

[Darth Wheatly]

Dragons

Salamance
Dragonite
Salamance
Axew (Troll wise)
Salamance
Dragonite

Bassicly strong favorites

[Ver-mont]

Psychic.
I like it. Guess I just got so impressed in Gen I and that never wore off.

Bronzong, Espeon, Alakazam, Gallade and Metagross.

But the Leaders and Elite Four members have type-themed names, so I guess I'm bound to train... Ghost-types? haha
Not bad too, I like them.

[Icepwned]

Just add Empoleon and Dewott to this list for non-3rd Gen.
Also add Eviolite to Wartortle, Mudkip, Marshtomp, and Dewott.

[bobyjoe5000]

Spiritomb (The hit taker)
Gengar (The fast powerhouse)
Froslass (The Status Monster)
Chandelure (The slow powerhouse)

Dusknoir (The Trick-rooming, Super Defensive, Priority and Pain-split abusing Leader)
