So I'm reconsidering my final team for OR. Currently this is what I have:

Final team
~ Shiny Umbreon
~ Altaria
~ Salamence
~ Blaziken
~ Pikachu
~ Gallade/ Jirachi

The problem is none of them can learn surf, and I'm wondering which would be better for my final slot, Jirachi or Gallade? Also, if you have any reconditions for any pokemon that would fit well with the rest that could learn surf I would really appreciate it! Thank you. :)

I would really appreciate any suggestions! Feel free to discuss your teams and hesitations as well. :D

Do you want recommendations for a Pokemon that can learn Surf? If so I would suggest Milotic, it's an awesome tank and has great Special Attack. I'd also consider Vaporeon, but I heard that you can't get Eevee in Hoenn (I've never played a Gen 3 game though).

I'm not sure about Jirachi or Gallade, both are pretty cool. I would consider which typing is more efficient for your team, Psychic/Steel or Psychic/Fighting.

Milotic! That is perfect thank you. Well you can transfer pokemon over from X and Y. ^^

Probably Jirachi then, since Blaziken is already half fighting. Thank you!
 
Personally, i would replace Umbreon with Linoone, as it can be very strong, and can learn surf, where as Umbreon is more of a Defensive pokemon.

And I would go with Gallade, but that is probably because Jirachi is a legendary and I hate it (I don't even know why I do) when people use legedaries ingame. Competitive is fine for me, but I can't stand it when people do that. Although, Jirachi is more of a minor not as strong legendary, so I don't mind it that much. Don't pay attention to the rant part of this, I was just explaining my reasoning

Unfortunately I cannot replace Umbreon because it's my favorite pokemon, I've had an Umbreon on my final team for as long as I've been playing pokemon. But thank you for the suggestion. ^^

It's okay, I understand. I'm not really big on legendaries either but I'm trying to get as much of a move balance as possible. ^^
 
I'd pick Milotic for a surfer. Training Feebas is a hell of a pain though just a warning.
I'd also pick Jirachi over Gallade. I love Jirachi.

Sorry about the super late reply, I had a scale so I just turned my Feebas straight into a Milotic. Also I love Jirachi too. ^^
 
eevee is actually found on 116 after you upgrade your dex.
 
You should put a Deoxys on your team, they are really cool and they are really strong.
