The Smogon Spelling Bee

Hello and welcome to the Smogon Spelling Bee! In this tournament, the names of your Pokemon will finally matter, or at least the first letters of them. In each round, you will be given a theme and you must build a team using six Pokemon that spell out a word relating to that theme with the first letters of their names. For instance, if the theme was 'household objects', I could build a team using the word 'window' and the Pokemon Wormadam, Infernape, Ninjask, Delcatty, Omastar and Wigglytuff. Note the Pokemon must be in the same order as the word, so I would be required to use Wormadam as my lead. Also, note that plural nouns are illegal. Singular only.

I left the ones with players I don't know blank. (Oh, yes I'm betting against myself)

EDIT: Wow. I underestimated how hard it would be to make a team.
 
Contacted opponent, team almost done.

Just checking but, going back to your example earlier on, Wormadam, Infernape, Ninjask, Delcatty, Omastar and Wigglytuff. Say Wormadam faints, are you required to send in Infernape after it, seeing as I comes after W in Window, or you can choose yourself whom to send out?

You can choose.
