DOU main. GMT-7. PS!: GenOne
Cinderace is probably the worst Pokemon on this team, but I'm happy with the outcome.

Out of the three starters I could've picked, Rillaboom seemed too obvious of a choice and I wanted to be a bit more creative. That said, Intelleon completely blows and I don't think it will ever be viable. That left me with Cinderace, which on paper doesn't seem like the best Pokemon ever but at least has an interesting ability to work with.
Overall, I think I ended up with a pretty decent balance build that uses mostly high tier Pokemon while still giving Cinderace a viable niche that can't just be replaced by a different Fire-type.
Here's a breakdown of each Pokemon I picked to build out this team:
