Base Speed
What a load of BS!
Yikes. There are so many reasons why Competitive is a terrible idea...
1. It's a great ability, that easily has the potential to outclass our primary ability.
2. It's generically good. It does absolutely nothing to further our concept, it just makes CAP19 more powerful.
3. It's totally contrary to the original concept: Competitive can only make it more desirable to kill CAP19. We're already immune to paralysis and don't really care about burn, you want to make it so we can't be debuffed at all? Want to make it so people can't Defog on us? Want Gyarados (who, if what we've done so far works, will become huge in this meta) to bring CAP19 up to terrifying power? No!
And Technician? As Vann Accessible has already pointed out, Technician means 90 BP Hidden Powers and allows us to beat things we shouldn't. That and that alone is enough to put me off.
No Competitive Ability please. Storm Drain gives us everything we need and we shouldn't distract from it.
