What is the best team with an empoleon starter?

Answer 1

I wrote an answer to a similar question with Infernape as a s tarter(Infernape is a better choice then Empoleon), it'll have a list of Pokemon with all HM's, and a section of fossil Pokemon to replace the normal Pokemon.There are no legendaries 'cause not everybody has or knows how to get them.This is what I have and I only needed 2 Hyper potions and 1 Revive to beat the Elite 4 so you might not agree but this is still pretty good.I warn you that you will have a hard time trying to understand this guide, A hard time trying to get these Pokemon, and A hard time leveling up to get some of the moves.Empoleon-Surf, Waterfall, Drill peck, and Ice beam OR Blizzard

OR

Lumineon-Surf, Waterfall, Air cutter, an d Blizzard OR Ice beam

OR

Sharpedo-Surf, Waterfall, Ice beam OR Blizzard, and Bounce

Gallade-Shadow ball, Leaf blade, Psychic OR Psycho cut, and cut

OR

Shiftry-Extrasensory, Cut, Shadow ball, and Energyball OR Seed bomb

OR

Roserade-Extrasensory, Shadow ball, Energy ball OR Seed bomb, and Cut

Flygon-Draco meteor, Fly, Earthquake, Rock smash

OR

Salmence-Rock smash, Fly, Draco meteor, and Earthquake

OR (They are basically the same)

Dragonite-Rock smash, Fly, Draco meteor, and Earthquake

Typhlosion-Eruption, Gyro ball, Rock climb, and Strength

OR

Magmortar-Overheat, Rock climb, Strength, and Iron tail

OR

Arcanine-Iron tail, Flamethrower, Strength, Rock climb

Lucario-Aura sphere, Dark pulse, Thunder punch, and Poison jab

OR Machamp-Dynamic punch, Thunder punch, Payback, and Poison Jab (Needs No guard abillity)

OR

Toxicroak-Sludge bomb, Brick break, Thunder punch, and Dark pulse

There is no best bug type but I would consider:

Vespiqueen-Attack order, Power gem, Heal order, and X-scissor

OR

Yanmega-Bug buzz, Ancient power, Hypnosis, and Dream eater

OR

Pinsir-X-scissor, Stone edge, Rest, and Superpower

No clue why you would need one 'cause they have weaker moves but owning something rare makes you feel special.Armaldo-X-scissor, Ancient power, Cross poison, and rest (Bug type replacement)

Kabutops-Surf, Waterfall, Aerial ace, and Ice beam OR Blizzard (Water type replacement)

Rampardos-Iron head, Flamethrower, Rock climb, and Strength (Fire type replacement)

Bastiodon-Flash cannon, Flamethrower, Earthquake, and Thunderbolt (No replacement)

Cradily-Sludge Bomb, Recover, Seed bomb, and Ancient power (No replacement)

Aerodactyl-Dragon pulse, Earthquake, Fly, Rock smash (Dragon type replacement)

Omastar-Earth power, Waterfall, Ice beam OR Blizzard, and Stone edge (No replacement)
