I was playing silver today when I thought my "boring run of the mill" team were actually really...random.

Ditto
Murkrow(pretty popular actually)
Yanma
Dunsparce
Donphan
Granbull

I sometimes ditch my starter for originality.
So the question is do you like choosing weird or obscure pokemon? Any special cases like a full party of magikarp?

Bellsprout is fun to have in the group for a bit, mostly just because I needed a grass type.

I use Breloom, the evolved form of shroomish, a Fighting grass type?! MADNESS
Seriously though in Saphire its double useful against the dark and water types they use, also its attack is monstrous, also shroomish is adowable :3

I love my Weezing...but everyone says he's lame...then he One-Hit-KO's a lvl.100 party of psychics...who's lame NOW?!/crazyrant.
I do use PKMN that people generally don't use like my Wee-NO! DON'T GO BACK TO THE RANT My party can be random too- Weezing, Poliwrath, Electrode, Tyranitar, Ursaring, Houndoom- a lot of them people use but my best is one that people never see coming...

My team in SoulSilver: (Non legendaries)

Pikachu Lvl 77 (Shock Wave, Thunder, Thunderbolt, Discharge)
Shiny Gyarados Lvl 46 (Water HM Slave) (Whirlpool, Hyper Beam, Waterfall, Surf)
Misdreavus Lvl 53 (Can't remember moveset)
Typhlosion Lvl 60 (Swift, Flamethrower, Eruption, Overheat)
Grumpig Lvl 77 (Zen Headbutt, Psychic, Rest, Payback)
Snorlax Lvl 56 (HM Slave) (Strength, Rollout, Rock Climb, Giga Impact)

Though one time I did try and go through and beat the E4 with just Unown and my Misdreavus. Unown WTF?! and my Misdreavus, to be exact. No, I'm not kidding.

I always wanted to get a Breloom, but whenever I look for it I can NEVER find a shroomish.

I don't know if it's "obscure" or "under-used", but I've always been a huge fan of Sableye, stats be damned.

I'm also using a beedrill on firered which sucked untill I got Twineedle. It only hits twice every time but it does a crapton of damage and it poisons somtimes.

Current party in Heart Gold:

Typhlosion
Poliwrath
Alakazam
Gengar
Aerodactyl (stone edge from a flying pokemon is just absurdly good)
Lanturn

None of them are that obscure. But not many choose Aerodactyl or Lanturn. Which is too bad because they're incredibly good.

I have a *something something* for Sableye. How can I not love a ghost/dark type? A lot of things can't hit it and then it can confuse them!

Scyther is pretty much the coolest pokemon ever.
FINALLY another Scyther user WOOHOO! What is not awesome about a human sized bug that moves at fictional ninja speed and has blades for arms that can cut trees down with a single swipe.

I LOVE Lairon, even though to get him you have to train a really weak Pokémon for far too long, and then you're only allowed to keep him for 10 levels before he evolves into some lame triceratops thing! Seriously, pressing B shouldn't be necessary; this should be a one-time evolution Pokémon!
