I think the best family is the Alakazam one, simply because of
Kadabra. Let's look at him, Super Psy does 50, for three energy's and he can
recover for the low cost of one energy. Also, Alakazam's Damage Swap is in my
opinion the second best power in the game, (behind Raindance) all you have to do
is use it and keep doing Confuse Ray to waste on almost any pokemon.
