i am curious.
for the tournament next month, how are you picking your team?
not asking what you picked specifically, just the thought process behind it.
is it better to go with your strongest or your favorites?
or do you have a different game plan entirely?
it's a lot harder narrowing it down to just three than i thought it would be.
i know there's still plenty of time and i don't have to decide TODAY but the sooner the better, right?

D--> Or those you wish to become STRONG
D--> Assuming you possess a sufficient quantity of Pokebeasts
D--> I have entered my entire team
D--> Across several of the offered brackets

sometimes i think i have too many, to be honest.
but i think there are more aspects to consider here than just strength.
i didn't realize we could enter more than one bracket though!

D--> And I presume you speak of elemental typings
D--> Such considerations are obviously important, but I would assume that the STRONGNESS of the beasts in question would form the basis of your sele%ion

because i have some lower leveled ones that i'm sure would enjoy competing and could use the experience.
but even beyond typing, there are other factors.
sometimes a more loyal pokemon may be a little weaker but a better choice because they're more willing to try hard!
same goes with pokemon that are more cunning than powerful, they can pull some tricks you wouldn't expect.
stuff like that.
if this were the video game, sure, strength would probably be the more important aspect.
but pokemon are real here so it's a more complicated process!
Re: [text]
D--> I would presume one would select the Pokebeasts you e%pect to give the best performance
D--> Overall
D--> Power comes in many forms besides being STRONG
D--> Even if it is the most superior form of such power
[text]
but it doesn't make the decision any less difficult.
if i could have a full team of six, that would be a different story! this limit of three is really killing me though.
but i think i will take your suggestion of entering two brackers instead of just one. that might help somewhat.
Re: [text]
D--> To determine which are best able to compete
[text] brackets* i am the best at typing
if i can't make a decision on my own or just by talking to them then that may be what i end up doing.
