What kind of trainer are you?

I'm usually B when completing the main storyline, but when I challenge the battle frontier/subway I become type E. I EV train check natures, breed moves etc.
 
Type B for me. Used to be a type A back in my very first game, but I quickly changed :p
 
Type A while going through the storyline, though I do become a type B after I beat the champion. Trainer evolution, if you will.
 
I've always thought of me as a type B, getting 6 different pokemon, different types and beating elite 4.
Today I beat for the first time elite 4 in white version 2. Then I was looking around bulbapedia and noticed there are rematches with even more powerful pokemon. So I decided to look for ways to make my party better. And I discovered EV.
It totally changed the way I see the game.
Which makes me realize maybe I don't know anything about this game which would make me a type D (totally clueless)
But at the same time, it makes me want to play EV-style. Which would make me a type E.
But I'm too lazy to do it and don't have enough time to do so.
So in the end, I'll end up being (still) a type B.
 
I'm TOTALLY a Type B.
Always have been.

My Trainer OC though, is a Type C.
Fire specialist. I'd do that in the games as well, but 1) fire types take a while to get ahold of and 2) the storyline is hard to beat with just one type of a pokemon.
 
I'm kinda in between B and E. I'm crazy I guess....I plan out my entire team before I even start the game, and I plan out the moves I'm going to use, but I always make sure my team of 6 is at exactly the same level, well-rounded, and I always make sure they have good stats (I try to make sure their base stats are all above 500, but sometimes I'll go below if I just really like the Pokemon).
 
Type B. And beyond that.

One pokemon levels up, new lead.
 
Type E

I hate imperfection. I even RNG'd and EV trained the event Dialga I received from the event....seriously even though it will most likely never be used in any sort of event. I just couldnt stand the thought of it not being are perfect as possible....it really spoils the game for me at times.
 
I'm B because I learned from Pokemon Gym Leader Norman about balance!
Also, I set it up as the highest level go to the end of the party while the lowest levels go to the front. I also order it if same level by who is going to level up first.
Due to type advantages, some Pokemon level up so fast and easily compared to a few individuals in my party.
 
Type A, with a bit of B

I focus on three pokemon, while the other pokemon I have are just for HM usage
 
I used to be a type A...I mean, wasn't everyone when they first started playing Pokemon?
But now I'm a type B, through and through
 
Type B is very much me. I am very neurotic about my Pokemon training. Everything has to be the same level, and if something levels up, I will refuse to use it until the entire party has caught up. I cycle my Pokemon depending on level like that, and pretty much ignore type weaknesses/strengths unless I absolutely cannot win. And I do make sure I have a wide variety of types.

Also, I'm probably the only person who was NEVER a Type A when I started training first. I always wanted to use a wide variety of Pokemon, and got really bored with just using one over and over again. So I would try them all, and sometimes use waaay too many Pokemon to the point where everything would have low levels. Now I carefully control that by using only Pokemon I intend to use throughout the entire game.
 
I'm Type B, bb. ;) I always keep my original six Pokémon with me, they're always my strongest, and they're usually different types and 9 times out of 10, they're found early on in the game.
 
Mix of B and E. I plan and assemble dream teams, and train them pretty high. (Haven't quite gotten my head around EV training yet)
