get any sweeper poke and you'll be fine

high speed + high (sp) attack and a nice movepool or some strong TM's and you'll be fine

I've restarted games just to run it with one poke before. Unless it's a pokemon that absolutely blows, you should be fine (I just carried backup pokes to learn hms).
They seem to get better stats that way.
For me at least.

lol this always works

There used to be, but people made hacked pokemon all the time. Eventually, the information required to make the hacked pokemon yourself without the use of any hacks, gameshark, ect. was released and now people generally make their own Pokemon instead of trading FG for Pokemon.

As for advice, I like to give my teams themes. One time I only used Pokemon my wife told me to use. It was interesting, and VERY challenging because she'd choose something that looked cute, but sucked.

Another theme I've used was Dinosaur-ish looking, and the old "Monotype" teams. Regardless of what you choose, giving it a certain "theme" always makes the game fun. But if you don't know all of the newer Pokemon yet, DON'T CHEAT and look them up. It will take all the excitement away

you creat the pokemon file on the computer then trade it to your ds via the global trade thing
