[Pokémon HeartGold] My Hall of Fame Team!

I recently decided to play my very first video game, Pokémon HeartGold, but with a bit of a twist. Usually, I plan a team out from the very beginning, but this time, I let a six sided dice decide my starter, and I adapted from there! Through lots of grinding, shenanigans with the Pokéwalker, and a copy of Platinum on standby for trades evolutions, we'll be going to Kanto as Champions, all on my original copy from 2010!

This was a really challenging, but fun team to manage. Shoutouts to the dedicated HeartGold and SoulSilver Subreddit for helping me narrow down my choices!

Taking some constructive criticism on this Base Roster.

Hi! I challenged myself to make a roster like this a while back, and I think I did a decent job! I got some staples, some surprises, and a little bit of bias, but not too much. But I'm always happy to take some constructive criticism on things like this.

I'm still kind of torn of some stuff, specifically keeping Zelda's Ultimate design and the trio of Fire Emblem characters here. I wanna add Byleth back, but picking between them, Ike, and Robin is hard. So I'd love to hear some thoughts on those as well! I have some DLC choices planned like 2B, Leda, Chun-Li, Rauru, etc. But we can talk about those at a later time (or now if anyone wants.) Those choices are tough too.

Please keep in mind that I haven’t included Echo Fighters on this yet. Specifically Octoling, who I'm still torn on as to what they'd be as well. I'm more than happy to explain some of my choices at the time, all I ask is that we keep it civil, constructive, or at the very least funny. Thank you in advance!

Narrowing down Team Members for HeartGold.

Hello, everyone! A few days ago, I posted on another subreddit about how I downloaded Reddit just to ask for Team Building advice for a Pokémon HeartGold run. I figured I'd poat the follow-up on this one as well! My current team consists of a Bayleef and Togepi fresh out of Bugsy's Gym. It's time to start thinking about the rest of the players in this game.

After some careful consideration, I think I've narrowed a few candidates. Keep in mind that any of the more unusual choices listed are actually doable.

Heracross ~ Probably the closest one to being locked in for the team. Once I get Headbutt, I can get one immediately. I've never used one before, and it sounds like fun!
Espeon ~ I think a good Psychic-type would do nicely, and I've never been terribly bothered by friendship based evolutions.
Dragonite ~ I've got lots of options in regards to getting one of these. The Game Corner, the Dragon's Den, the Pokéwalker, the Platinum save file I have on standby... I'm aware if the grind, but I really don't mind.
Aerodactyl ~ I found an Old Amber at the Ruins of Alph, and all I'd need to do is trade it over to Platinum, revive it at the Mining Museum, and bring it back!
Milotic ~ I used one in Platinum, and I honestly prefer it to Gyarados in Generation IV.
Porygon-Z ~ LOOK AT THAT SPECIAL ATTACK.
Rapidash ~ I got a Ponyta from the Pokéwalker and I thought maybe I could work with it.
Scizor ~ I'd probably miss out on using Heracross for the first time, but it's very convincing.

What I'm looking for is the best combination of these choices to go with my eventual Meganium and Togekiss. So if you have any thoughts, I'd love to hear them! Thanks in advance!

Downloaded Reddit just to ask for team member suggestions.

I'm planning on doing a Pokémon HeartGold run soon, and I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions for team members!

● My starter is being decided by dice.

● Trade evolutions are on the table.

● Pokéwalker encounters (within reason) are on the table.

● The Platinum Pokédex is on the table just in case.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions!
