AG Teambuilding Compendium
This is a resource intended to act as a guide of sorts while teambuilding. Use this as a reference to help find Pokemon that fill missing roles in your team, or to identify potential threats to a team you are building. If you feel like a Pokemon is missing from a certain section or that a section should be added, feel free to post it below! Make sure any changes you suggest include some reasoning, it's ideal if you base them on first-hand experience using or playing against a Pokemon (replays are also helpful). Options which are separated from the first few are ones which are generally Pokemon which are less viable, or Pokemon which are less effective in that specific role. That's all, happy posting!
