The one thing in pokémon that I have always enjoyed the most, even more than battling itself, is building a team. I love making teams built on a single idea or strategy, like setting up a specific pokémon or building around a strategy like Trick Room or Gravity, and tweaking and editing my team based on matches I had with it. If I run out of ideas to improve it, I most of the time drop it shortly after, even if it's good.
But, like most things in life, building teams is even more fun when building it together with some other people. Next to that, a team built by multiple people is possibly also better, made by the experience and knowledge of more than one person. The more the merrier, two heads are better then one, etc.
Builing teams with multiple people is fun, and creates strong and original teams. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person who thinks so.
Smogon is the ideal site for such a project. With many active and intelligent competitive players, there are more than enough people who would want to participate in such a project. However, a thread like "hi guys who wants to make a team together with me" will probably just be ignored.
If you make it a little more official however, it could work like a project similar to battling 101 and CAP. Some kind of subforum specially designed for threads like that in RMT would be ideal. If it gets abused too much by people too lazy to make their own team (which I have to admit will probably happen), it could be regulated by a mod, only approving original and interesting concepts for a team. The size of the projects could vary from small threads of 3 or 4 members making a simple team to a large project involving multiple participants, only open for people who actually know what they're doing.
So in short: a RMT-subforum or some other kind of support for threads in which multiple people work on building one team.
