If 680 BST legendaries are considered unfair, then I'm pretty sure glitches are even less fair. Also many Pokemon players don't have friends that they can trade with. We should probably also edit the questions to explicitly disallow any future answers that require trading or glitches.

It's been more than a week and nobody opposed this suggestion, so it's probably safe to implement. I'll edit each thread to look like what I have written below and flag any rule-breaking answers I see, and then I'll hide the answers over the next few days. You can help flag answers if you want.

Share your best in-game teams for [game] on this thread! Before submitting yours, please read the following guidelines and make adjustments where they fit.

  • Include your recommended Pokemon in your answer, each with recommended moves for use throughout the playthrough. You can include items, abilities, EVs, or natures, but they are not necessary.

  • Remember that players may be unable to access certain Pokemon, such as those restricted by version exclusivity or trade evolutions. If you'd like to suggest a Pokemon like this, please mention alternative/s.

  • Take into account that most players do not want to abuse glitches or the random number generator, or use cheating devices, such as Action Replay. Please do not recommend abusing any of these.

  • Please post original teams. Do not post teams made by other people, such as Youtubers.

  • Consider the unspoken rules of in-game teams, such as to keep the starter on the team, include six Pokemon, or avoid legendaries. You're welcome to suggest otherwise but, again, it's kind to include other options.

  • Provide explanation and detail. Justify your Pokemon and moveset choices; possible discussion points include ease-of-use, team synergy and coverage for key battles.

  • Submit your team as an answer, not a comment. To keep things tidy, we will remove any teams posted as comments in this thread. If you simply want to update your post, use the 'edit' button.

While we're here, I might as well mention an extra point I've considered adding, which is to not submit teams made by other people. A surprising amount of people write out teams from YouTube for these threads, which is probably not appropriate (and I've removed them in the past).
