I could never do that >^<

I get too attached to my pokemon!

Ry, I've used those 4 in a run, and they're decent. I recommend Venusaur since it helps you more in the gyms and 1 E4 dude.

What my friend did was do a Nuzlocke of Pokemon Moon, and when they died, he only put them in a separate PC box. When he lost, he brought everyone back and acted like it was a regular run.

Also I'm not the biggest fan of Venusaur...

Okay. Charizard works too. I'd recommend Fletchling since it's early on, and Charmander can replace it if that works. Aegislash is boss, and Gogoat can help as well. Best of luck.

GET BLASTOISE!

No, it doesn't work for this game if he gets Froakie. If Chespin, then I say Blastoise is a must.
Grand Master Koop
Grand Master Koop
yeah get Chespin then get Squirtle from professor Syncamore

I did it if I got a starter at the beginning, get the starter weak to the one I have to cover its weakness.

But, Charizardis an awesome (non) dragon, that is bad ass and shoots fire.

FROAKIE TEAM FROAKIE 4 LYFE then get Venasuar (Charizard is only worth it with X)

I've actually done Pokemon Showdown with a Mega Charizard Y. He can get set up as a heavy wall breaker. Solar Beam, wipes out Water types. And then get some STAB moves in there. The fourth can be either for more coverage or for Stat Boosts.

But yeah, I'll probably go, Greninja.

Yeah, Charizard Y is honestly much better than X, at least competitively. I have Solar Beam, Flamethrower, Sunny Day or Air Slash or Dragon Pulse, and Ancient Power.

When he Mega Evolves, isn't his ability Drought, making it automatically Sunny?

And in Gen 6, they introduced Fairy types, which make his long awaited dragon typing, less useful.

To answer your question...yes it's ability is Drought. But Drought is turned base, so just in case the effects of Drought have ended, I can use Sunny Day.
Ry_Burst
Ry_Burst
Oh, yeah, I didn't really think about that. Normally what happens to me, is that they send out their Water Pokemon out early, and by the time Drought is finished, I don't really have a use for Solar Beam. Still I see what you're talking about.
SS-I Never

But you're forgetting one crucial type, a type that is a huge weakness for Charizard...ROCK! 4x super effective! But Solar Beam would annihilate any rock types.
Ry_Burst
Ry_Burst
Honestly, I never think about Rock Types. When I was younger, I thought a Rock Typing, was the exact same as a Ground typing. XP

Maybe throw in an Earthquake, instead of Ancient Power. Super Effective to them pesy R9cks and less reliant on the sun.
SS-I Never
SS-I Never
Yeah, but Ancient Power has a chance to boost your stats, and that's a chance I'm willing to take.
Ry_Burst
Ry_Burst
Yeah, but only 5 PP. Which can be problematic and makes you a bit more reliant on the sun to deal with Rocks.

Mega Charizard Y is so much better than X, Mega Evolve, Drought activate, Heat Wave Sweep the enemy team
