Heheh... I've just finished thinking of my main team I'll have for SoulSilver when it releases. ^_^

But as for Jirachi... I may as well take advantage of this opportunity.

I've been doing a bit of thinking too, but i don't want to lock myself in. For at least the first half of the game your team should be organic, a surprise, then you start focusing on specific Pokemon to round it out.

 

All i know is that Typhlosion will be my main, and i may import a few from Pearl. Most likely either my low-level Spiritomb, mid-level Snover (or Abomasnow, not sure if it evolved), and maybe Jirachi, but i don't want to load too much of my team from the older game (which is what i ended up doing with my original Silver, with a hacked-out Mewtwo, overlevel Starmie, Electabuzz, and Moltres to make 4/6th of my team)

 

Also looking at Wooper to cover the dual bases of ground and water, and maybe Natu/Xatu, but putting them in would preclude Jirachi.
