Now that we are in the middle of the FIFA World Cup, I’d thought it’d be fun to build a football/soccer team for each of the generations (with one Mega/GMax form allowed max per team, no mythicals/legendaries).

I crafted 2 separate teams: one without Ultra Beasts, and one with the (take your pick as to whether Ultra Beasts should or should not be counted). Both are 4-4-2s. The Shuffle icons on the upper-left corner are the subs, while the Shuffle icon right next to the keeper is the Sub Goalkeeper.

Would love to hear what you think of it (and explain my choices if needed!).

p.s. if anyone reads this, do you think Paradox Pokémon are fair game for the Paldea team? If so, would you allow all paradoxes or only those for non-mythical mons? Thanks to any soul wanting to help out ahahaha
