Hiker pokemon team, but it's based entirely on how realistically useful I think each pokemon would be
#Noivern is my most hesitant on this list#Their ability to break rocks on their pokedex entry is what sold my though#While I prefer crowbat due to the smaller size I do think Noivern would be more useful in case of emergency#Lapras is there due to the commonness of water in caves that require surf#While I was hesitant on them and was thinking about getting a more redilly accessible pokemon for the average person#The fact of them being part ice type and that they naturally appear in caves in sinnoh is what sold me on them#Excadrill and absol are there for obvious reasons#Mudsdale is also there for obvious reasons due to how they help in alola#along with the fact that they are the pokemon in this team I would trust most if their trainer needed to be carried to safety#My fire type was the hardest pick#Turinator or macargo were some of my first picks‚ however they were scrapped due to being at risk of being killed#or causing a worse disaster in case of a cave in or another event of something similar#Talonflame was my ACTUAL first pick‚ not only for the fire type but also for the pokemon that can learn fly#They were decided against though due to not being able to see in the dark (or at least that not being hinted at in their pokedex entries)#while both crowbar and noivern can#my last potential choice was heatmor but they were also scrapped due to their fire's riskyness of going out easily (same with torkrol)#I decided this team could be sufficient without a fire type‚#but still the worry of the hiker being caught in a place where they can't escape and are without heat persuaded me to make a second team#I settled on centiskorc due to it's thin size#The ability to get in very tight spaces without brute forcing through them was one my team lacked and I wanted to amend that#that and finding a fire type that looked reasonable outweighted my hesitancy over the lack of pokedex entries
