Ok, so I did some critical thinking the other day, and I came up with the idea of a new challenge of using only Pokemon who have been rejected on mainstream teams over the years: gimmick Pokemon! Gimmicks, ranging from the beautiful but frail Butterfree to the amazingly lazy Slaking, come in many different forms, and you must only pick 4 Pokemon to travel with you, but there's a catch. You guessed it: they all have to be rejects!
Here are all the rules I've made for the gimmilocke:
1. The one most important rule: you may only use gimmick Pokemon.
2. You may only use four Pokemon on your team.
3. You may NOT use your starter (OK, maybe until you can actually catch something).
4. You must have at least 2 Pokemon, but no more than 4, as mentioned earlier.
These are the only rules I've thought, any suggestions would be awesome.
I'll give a list of gimmicks so people won't get confused(NOTE: I won't name every last gimmick, just giving examples. No more suggestions required):
Kanto:
Golbat
Butterfree
Beedrill
Farfetch'd
Ditto
Clefable
Eevee (suggested by Snaquaza)
Flareon
Johto:
Unown
Wobbuffet
Delibird
Smeargle
Shuckle
Corsola
Hoenn:
Sableye
Shedinja
Slaking (look, I know it's strong and all, and a lot of people use it, but I think the ability alone is enough to call it a gimmick)
Plusle
Minun
Luvdisc
Spinda
Castform
Clamperl
Wynaut
Kecleon
Sinnoh:
Wormadam
Chatot
Bibarel
Combee (male only)
Cherubi (suggested by Snaquaza)
(Snaquaza, I took out Vespiquen because Combee doesn't evolve when it's a male)
Unova:
Watchog
Basuclin (suggested by Snaquaza)
Not really much else... again, any suggestions would be awesome.
EDIT: No more suggestions needed. Just giving a few examples. If you have any questions regarding whether a Pokemon can be used or not, ask on this forum or PM me.
If you decide to take this challenge, all I can say is...well, good luck!
Wish for the best,
Jonathan
