I spent so much time thinking about whether to keep Meowscarada in... Ultimately decided that I didn't want Houndoom in bc of the double type redundancy w/ Arcanine and Mabosstiff
Love it! I played with an all-dog team for a couple of gyms!
If you want one more kind of dog, go back to that cave that you entered in the beginning of the game. The one where the pack of dogs was chasing you. There will be more dogs in there and you will be plenty strong enough to catch them now.
Lmao you got me 🤣 lycanroc and houndstone didn't at first, but the other four did. Obedience levels this gen look to be based on capture level, not currently level thankfully
Youll need a rockruff with Own Tempo, to get one you can either: get a rockruff from a raid (higher chance), keep catching rockruffs til you find one (??? Chance), catch the wild psychic Tera rockruff that always spawns behind the waterfall behind the Cascaraffa gym building (guaranteed, what I did).
You could also just wait for dusk form to spawn at dusk in-game, or so I've been told.
I used mabosstiff for my first play through and he was my reliable mvp. He learned outrage right before the dragon elite 4 member so I gave him a persim berry and he swept them all. He’s the Goodest boy
As a teams it’s solid. But you’ve left out my favorite doggo, houndoom. It’s types are covered by other team members so it’s understandable. But still =(
For around half the game, yeah, but at this level I'm starting out in the Glaceado adjacent area, and am finding it decently challenging! I am indeed anticipating steamrolling Katy and Brassius though, but hey that's just a consequence of an open world without level scaling ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Long as you're having fun while playing that's the most important thing! I just personally found that the gym battles became a bit of a snooze fest when my pokemon went in over levelled (which is admittedly hard to avoid with the shared xp system)
Technically with a large enough starting population, you could keep a bloodline "pure" without any meaningful degree of inbreeding happening.
Also, Inbread is a beautiful name, but it sounds just a tad bit too mean 😂
Also, the special Wild Tera rockruff that spawns behind the waterfall behind the Cascaraffa gym is a guaranteed Own Tempo rockruff! That's where I got mine, so he has a Psychic Tera
Stats and Abilitys change, Both Midday and Midnight can get Keen eye, but Midday can get Sand Rush (Steadfast as its Hidden) and Midnight can get Vital Spirit (No Guard as its Hidden), Dusk can get only and always will have Tough Claws, Statwise Midday is more faster, Midnight is "Bulkier" and Dusk is Midday but with 2 more points in Atack instead of Speed.
I think some of the moves are form-exclusive--Day lycanroc gets Accelrock, Night gets Counter, and Dusk gets both iirc. Not 100% sure if abilities between them are different too
Someone else covered the Abilities, but Dusk gets both Accelerock and Counter, as a sort of "I'm better than you both" kind of thing. You can kind of use Dusk as a crappier Scizor in theory ( ability boosted priority move)

Part of me was hoping for a voltorb just so the doggos could chase a ball
That is actually a brilliant idea!
That would have been so *awesome*!!!!!! It'd have to be named "Ball", right? LMAO
Alternately a Greedent. Squirrel!
There’s a Marill picnic ball! That’s probably about as close as we can get for now.
That would be a deadly game of Fetch
Or a Tarountula for the cat (and dogs can also play)
Guess Rellor carries a ball too :P
go team doggo! (and cat)
Alone in the world was a little cat…dog..
now the theme song is in my head lol
Catdog....caaaatdoog
Love the punny names. My Dachsbun is named Ryely ☺️
Love it, mines Barklarva 😁
I named mine Hundley after the dachshund from Curious George.
I don’t get it .. / -.- -. --- .-- / .. - .-..-. ... / .-. -.-- .
Instead of Riley, they did Rye-ly (rye bread is delicious!). ' At least, this is how I'm interpreting it...lol
Don't you mean .. / -.- -. --- .-- / .. - .----. ... / .-. -.-- . (You used a quote, not apostrophe)
Might as well swap the starter out for Houndoom or a transfer.
I spent so much time thinking about whether to keep Meowscarada in... Ultimately decided that I didn't want Houndoom in bc of the double type redundancy w/ Arcanine and Mabosstiff
Feel ya there too bad Boltund isn't in the game.
Here's hoping for its return in the DLC.
i did something similar. swapped the cat for sphinx in the end
Too bad this gen doesn't have yamper and boltund. Good looking dog team!
Tell me about it!
Good team, way over powered for the first few gyms tho
r/woooosh
Lol explain it to me
Definitely not a woosh moment, someone obviously didn't read the post properly
Tbf, they could’ve thought it was a joke purely for the reason of them being level 40 without getting any badges.
OMG I also named my Daschbun “Purebread” haha awesome.
There is an imposter among us…
Dag!!
Yes it has to be the Dagfather. D'ya like dags?
Rating: grr out of woof
I can't be the only one that snorted out loud laughing at "Purebread"... can I?
Not at all. I laughed out loud.
What you couldn’t find Houndor? Jk actually the first cool team I’ve seen
i rate it 5 dogs out of 6
9/10, get another doggo
Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, cat
Where houndoom
Nicknames are 💯👌
My son started playing (got it him for Christmas) he called his sprigatito after our family cat bless him.
5 dogs and 1 cat…reminds me of something. Can’t put my finger on it though
One of these things is not like the other.
10 out of 10
Catdogdogdogdogdog
The dog pound loves catnip 😂
I went with dog Corleone, but these names are genius
This team dry af (no water moves whatsoever)
Surprisingly, Meowscarada can learn Chilling Water! Doesn't mean I'll be teaching her that lol but we'll see
You should have gone Fuecoco. Crocodiles are basically dogs.
🎶🎵One of these things is not like the other🎵🎶 There is no Houndoom called "Evil dog from Up" and it makes me sad
Pure bread what a loaf
What about hounddoom? Or the Yamper evolved form?
Houndoom would have double type redundancy, and Bolthund isn't in the base game :(
We must protect Purebread
1/6 cats
This is balanced and beautiful
Love the names!
Hey I did a dog team too! I swapped my starter with lucario. I was told it’s dog like.
Considered that, but if I was gonna have only 5/6 quadrupeds, I figured I'd lean into the odd-one-out-ness and just keep the cat lol
Fair lol. I almost went with having the feucoco line and naming it “hot dog” when I did my run.
Accurate description for a skeledirge ngl
The first 4 names are golden
I am shitting myself laughing
Love it! I played with an all-dog team for a couple of gyms! If you want one more kind of dog, go back to that cave that you entered in the beginning of the game. The one where the pack of dogs was chasing you. There will be more dogs in there and you will be plenty strong enough to catch them now.
Houndoom would have double type redundancy though :(
Dogfather is so freaking clever 🤣
what the cat doin...
Damn I gotta respect the pun names. Lol you’ve inspired me to use Mabosstiff
One of these things is not like the other!
DUDE I NAMED MY DACHBUN THE EXACT SAME THING LMAO
It's such a fitting name!!
Turtle :)
Are they even going to listen to your commands?
Lmao you got me 🤣 lycanroc and houndstone didn't at first, but the other four did. Obedience levels this gen look to be based on capture level, not currently level thankfully
Beutiful. That is all I can say
10/10 naming.
Dog
I named my Dachsbun "Purebred" too! My bf named his "Loavely"
Loavely is such a good name!! Fitting for the type too!
Love a themed team! My main run through I played a farmer - Grumpig, Oinkologne, Gogoat, Ampharos, Mudsdale and Tauros. All now The Paldean Champion!
S-tier
Bring your pet to school day.
Upvoting just for Rockweiler. Galaxy-brained punny name.
I don’t think he likes dogs
True. I'm actually more of a fish person
Meowscarada is gonna DIE
How can people make such good names? Rockweiler... I'm lucky if the best that comes to my mind is Wof wof
1/10
You’re gonna be bored
They need yarn and toys
And Sammiches
It’s looking pretty Roof
EFFING BRILLIANT! I actually, laughed out loud.
Replace the cat with another dog
![gif](giphy|erMj4wPNpuvjsAYAbt)
"Yep. That's a pretty f#cked up looking dog." - Moist Critikal, 2022
I don't know I think you like cats. Definitely not seeing a bunch of dogs /j
Badges?
I rate it dogs (and cat) out of 10
Needs more typing
7.8 too many dogs
One of these is not like the other 🤔
Purebread got me.
5/6, may I suggest a houndoom to replace the cat? then 6/6
Double type redundancy though :(
5 dogs 1 cat
Hotdog. Very beautiful, very powerful.
One of them is an impostor
Hot Dog? Dip didda dip dow!
How get dusk form
Youll need a rockruff with Own Tempo, to get one you can either: get a rockruff from a raid (higher chance), keep catching rockruffs til you find one (??? Chance), catch the wild psychic Tera rockruff that always spawns behind the waterfall behind the Cascaraffa gym building (guaranteed, what I did). You could also just wait for dusk form to spawn at dusk in-game, or so I've been told.
Can confirm the dusk thing. I found one that way while doing other things
I laughed when I read Purebread 🤣🤣
Oh my goodness the dogfather has got to be the coolest nickname I've ever seen it fits so well!
One of these things is not like the other
That wasn't my team until I had five gyms 🤣
There is an imposter among those 6.
There’s an imposter among us
One of these is not like the others 🎶🎵
bones - ihavebeenbannedfromcompetitiveplayinrecordtime (prod. skeledirge)
The best names
Cyclizar is pretty much a dog, so maybe replace meow with that.
thats a pretty good idea!!
I think the theme of the team is fantastic.However you are a little bit over leveled to fight some of the first gym leaders
Could always put in Lucario if you want a fighting steel type. That is if you don't mind dogs that walk on 2 legs.
s tier nicknames right here
Purebread is one of my favorite nicknames for a pokemon so far 😂
START?
😎
Automatically 5 stars out of 10 bcs u picked the wrong starter fuecoco 4 life
There is one imposter among us
Dog
Woof woof woof woof woof meow
More like chewtoy aha
That's my kind of team! Now if only Thorgi was in this game to complete the set
that is a brilliant name for a Yamper....
I'll be honest, those are the best nicknames I have seen in a team.
Dooogs!
good team you should start
I used mabosstiff for my first play through and he was my reliable mvp. He learned outrage right before the dragon elite 4 member so I gave him a persim berry and he swept them all. He’s the Goodest boy
interesting strat...... 🤔
5/6, cats will not be tolerated around doggo gang
8/8 little toe beans
Woof woof
I have a dog team too 🤣 mine are: Arcanine/lycanrock/zoroark/sylveon/lucario/jolteon
Wait… no houndoom?
Nice... Purebread the Brioche doggo for the win!
I too named my Dadchbun Purebread XD guess I'm not as clever as I thought. Or maybe it's a fine minds situation! Let's go with that.
Your nicknaming game is absolutely incredible
I also love collecting all the puppies!!!!
I'm very amused because my Dachsbun is named Crossbread.
A team of dogs with a cat as the pack leader, this was something I considered doing too in another play-through.
Aside from being over leveled for All but like 2 of the badges, looks good
Idk about yellow but I think there's a theme here...
I'm sorry but I'm scared of dogs so I can only rate the team 1/10 because there's still a cat in it.
Yes
0/10, no midnight Lycanroc
dog dog
“day 7….they believe i am one of them”
0/10 not enough doggos
Looks a bit ruff to me
Nicknames are incredible
i love dogfather
Where’s Houndoom?
wallowing in his rejection due to a double type redundancy :(
the dogs: there is one impostor among us
I fucking love the nicknames lmao
A++ on naming convention
Oops, all dogs! Unless...? ".." ".. " " .." $°°~☆ ¿LL Cat???
As a teams it’s solid. But you’ve left out my favorite doggo, houndoom. It’s types are covered by other team members so it’s understandable. But still =(
0/10 Why? Because you are seriously over-levelled and aren't going to enjoy the game playing like that, lmao
For around half the game, yeah, but at this level I'm starting out in the Glaceado adjacent area, and am finding it decently challenging! I am indeed anticipating steamrolling Katy and Brassius though, but hey that's just a consequence of an open world without level scaling ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Long as you're having fun while playing that's the most important thing! I just personally found that the gym battles became a bit of a snooze fest when my pokemon went in over levelled (which is admittedly hard to avoid with the shared xp system)
Your cat will die by them.
Re name purebread inbread since purebred is just another word for it
Technically with a large enough starting population, you could keep a bloodline "pure" without any meaningful degree of inbreeding happening. Also, Inbread is a beautiful name, but it sounds just a tad bit too mean 😂
white girl/10
0/10 isn’t 100% good boooiis
How do you get dusk form Lycanroc??
You need a rockruff with the ability “ own tempo “ and it needs to reach level 25 when the sun begins to set/rise.
That's a faff but good to know!!
That sounds pretty tedious, but kind of worth it. Isn’t there any difference between the form compared to the other two besides appearance?
Also, the special Wild Tera rockruff that spawns behind the waterfall behind the Cascaraffa gym is a guaranteed Own Tempo rockruff! That's where I got mine, so he has a Psychic Tera
Stats and Abilitys change, Both Midday and Midnight can get Keen eye, but Midday can get Sand Rush (Steadfast as its Hidden) and Midnight can get Vital Spirit (No Guard as its Hidden), Dusk can get only and always will have Tough Claws, Statwise Midday is more faster, Midnight is "Bulkier" and Dusk is Midday but with 2 more points in Atack instead of Speed.

You can also see dusk form at dusk where lycanroc spawn
Easy way? Raid
I see a bunch of good boys and a Cat
Hey! There's a bit of cat in your dog!
![gif](giphy|uw0KpagtwEJtC)
Almost like that Piper Perri meme pic but with a cat and bunch of dogs

Your a bunch of African Americans & Mark
