    Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer (CAP V. 3.0 READ THE OP!)

    The answer to this question is VERY long, so I’m not going to answer it fully here. In fact, there is a long 2,000 word post that I made more than 10 years ago in our private CAP Staff forum that contains the complete answer to this question in excruciating detail, including lots of staff-only...

    CAP 34 - Part 4 - Primary Ability Discussion

    FYI, if we slate abilities that have functionally equivalent other abilities -- all the functionally equivalent options will be listed on the slate. And then the flavor that works best for the chosen art will be used in the final product. Flavor should not impact competitive decisions, and the...

    WIP Sound the warning alarms! I think it's gonna blow! This is a sketch of an idea I'm playing around with - A worried nuclear reactor mon, blaring the alarms because it could meltdown at any time. I'm not sure whether I'll keep going with this or not, these are just some of the basic...

    February - March 7* Raids: Tera Ground Venusaur, Tera Steel Blastoise, and Tera Dragon Charizard

    It’s all good. As I said, solo was known to be easier than online, and if you brought Unaware Dirge the first time, you happened into one of the few viable mons for that raid. So, makes sense that for you it probably was not too memorable. But yeah, around these threads, Leaves is notorious lol...

    February - March 7* Raids: Tera Ground Venusaur, Tera Steel Blastoise, and Tera Dragon Charizard

    Yeah, I distinctly remember using Flutter Mane to win that one pretty easily, but I think my set was Moonblast / DK / Fake Tears / Calm Mind. And I preferred Mane over Sylveon because Mane easily outsped Zard. I'm not sure, but I also recall Azumarill just decimating Charizard, with the only...

    https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/iron-leaves-and-walking-wake-raid-event-movesets.3717189/ Here’s the thread for that Iron Leaves raid, if anyone wants to go back and re-read our experiences there. Yeah, Skeledirge was one of the few pokemon that was generally considered, me included, to...

    February - March 7* Raids: Tera Ground Venusaur, Tera Steel Blastoise, and Tera Dragon Charizard

    Iron Leaves was widely regarded as one of the hardest tera raids we have ever seen, even though it was only 5 stars and lvl 75 and all that. It had Swords Dance in its regular moveset so it basically went to +6 instantly. On top of that, it laid down electric terrain boosting its attack even...

    February - March 7* Raids: Tera Ground Venusaur, Tera Steel Blastoise, and Tera Dragon Charizard

    A couple of tweaks I am using successfully on some popular mons for the Blastoise raid: Vaporeon with Metronome and Fake Tears has been a better set for me in online randoms than the one I started with initially. Once Vappy goes into Surf mode, it tends to spam multiple Surfs in a row and...

    February - March 7* Raids: Tera Ground Venusaur, Tera Steel Blastoise, and Tera Dragon Charizard

    This is what I used to solo Blastoise pretty easily, and it’s also a good set for online randos too: :sv/iron_moth: Iron Moth @ Booster Energy Tera Type: Fire Modest Nature EVs: 128 HP / 128 SpAtk / 252 SpDef - Fiery Dance - Struggle Bug - Sunny Day - Morning Sun Very simple strategy: - Sunny...

    7-star Tera Ice Empoleon raid event (February 2-4/9-11)

    Yeah, I was more commenting that I know the line is not available in SV, the DLC, or even with common trading codes. Basically, you have to have PLA or have friends/acquaintances with it. But yeah you’re right, as Hisuan mons go, Sneasler is significantly easier to get than some others, if only...

    7-star Tera Ice Empoleon raid event (February 2-4/9-11)

    I am continuing to experiment and decided to try something a little different. I generally avoid repping pokemon that are hard to obtain until I have already recommended other more-available options, which is the case here. There are plenty of good mons readily available for this raid, so now I...

    7-star Tera Ice Empoleon raid event (February 2-4/9-11)

    I solo’ed it today with this: :sv/delphox: Delphox @ Shell Bell Tera Type: Fire Ability: Blaze Calm Nature EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpDef - Mystical Fire (pp max) - Sunny Day - Skill Swap - Calm Mind I got lucky again today, in that I didn’t have any Intimidate NPCs on my first attempt today. But, I...

    7-star Tera Ice Empoleon raid event (February 2-4/9-11)

    I’ve been using this Polteageist in online raids and it turns all sorts of bad/marginal teams into easy wins. If I join a lobby with a lot of obvious physical attackers (Iron Hands and Azumarill are easy marks) I switch to the little teacup and we cruise through Empoleon. I’ve been screwed a few...

    7-star Tera Ice Empoleon raid event (February 2-4/9-11)

    I beat it solo first try with this: :sv/tinkaton: Tinkaton @ Shell Bell Tera Type: Steel Ability: Own Tempo Adamant Nature EVs: 128 HP / 252 Atk / 128 SpDef - Skill Swap - Gigaton Hammer (PP Max) - Skitter Smack - Swords Dance I got lucky that I had no Intimidate partners first try. Turn 1...

    7-star Tera Ice Empoleon raid event (February 2-4/9-11)

    I think that ability removal is probably going to be a prerequisite for both solo and online raids. There's enough distribution of Skill Swap, Worry Seed, Gastro Acid etc that there should be options that can work. And, resetting for no Intimidate NPCs is probably a given for solo. But that kind...
