I used Kangaskhan and Greninja for every battle. They were the most stable sweepers on my team, and were able to do a good amount of damage to my opponents. Talonflame and Wash-Rotom were included more often than Dragonite and Smeargle. In fact, out of my nine battles yesterday, I only used Smeargle once. I think that that was a mistake, because in the one battle where I used him, I swept the opponent's entire team without losing any HP on my Pokemon. With a Timid Nature and 252 Speed EVs, he is pretty fast. With Kangaskhan using Fake Out first turn on the most dangerous threat, I was able to use Dark Void without any obstacles. 

What do you guys think of my team? What teams did you guys use for Regionals? Comment below, or send me a message on the Gamers' Community Forums.

New Pokemon - Litleo and Pyroar

The new Pokemon Litleo is a very cute little Fire and normal type Pokemon.

Litleo honestly reminds me of Shinx, released in generation four. However, I might have a hard time finding a spot for this Pokemon on my team. Fennekin is adorable, and if I don't choose Fennekin as my Kalos starter, then I am choosing Charmander as the Kanto starter. There are also Fletchling and Talonflame to consider as well. Decisions, decisions.

Back to Litleo though. Litleo evolves into Pyroar, which has different male and female appearances.

Female Pyroar(Image from the official Pokemon X and Y website.)

The male Pyroar has an impressive mane, although one must wonder how it can hear anything with all of that fur covering its ears. Female Pyroar's mane reminds me of a ponytail, which is probably what they were going for. If I do use this Pokemon on my team, I think that I will catch a male Litleo to evolve into Pyroar, because I prefer the appearance of the male Pyroar's mane.

What do you think? Would you choose the male or female Pyroar?
