When I go to build a team, type synergy is something that I take very seriously. My friends call me childish, but I still finding myself falling back to the Fire/Water/Grass (FWG) core that you're told about when you first get into competitive battling.
Yes, I played Jellicent + Celebi + Heatran for a long, long time in gen 5.
My question to you all is, have you found any other "Type Cores" with good synergy?
I was thinking of trying something where I based the team around a Dragon/Fairy/Steel (DFS) core, and worked from there. What do you guys think of this idea?
Basically the idea behind it is that your Dragon is your sweeper, the Steel guy is there to move Fairies out of the way. The Fairy can switch in on Fairy and Dragon moves aimed at your Dragon, the Steel guy can switch in on Steel and Poison moves aimed at the Fairy. And the Dragon could preferably be a flier/have levitate so it can switch in on Ground and/or Fighting and Fire moves aimed at the Steel guy.
Something like for example:
-Dragonite
-Azumarill
-Lucario
or
-Salamence
-Sylveon
-Lucario
You might even go with something like FWG and DFS on the same team. That could work.
Ideas, thoughts, or suggestions?
