  1. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 12a - Attacking Moves Discussion

    I stopped reading right there. Art does not matter when it comes to movepool... we can give this thing whatever we wish that seems competitively viable. That said, I think I'm all for the Overheat/Hydro Pump set that's been mentioned a few times. Flamethrower/Fire Blast I think won't be too...
  2. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 10a - Name Discussion

    Doug has pretty much summed up why I didn't even want to post in this thread yet. I did think we jumped the gun a bit early. Regardless, I'd like to back the "Storm" prefix discussion with KoA... it seems like a very nice prefix to utilize. Alternatively, KoA... I'd like to maybe throw in a...
  3. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 12a - Attacking Moves Discussion

    How'd I guess you'd argue paralysis side-effect moves? Give me some bent-spoons because I'm frickin' psychic! Ahem... seriously though, I'm all for Dragonbreath, Discharge, and Zap Cannon. Dragonbreath's not game-breaking, but can be useful if you're running Shield Dust as your ability. Heck...
  4. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 9 - Art Poll 4

    Oy vey, not again... sorry, but defining a "role" shouldn't be your basis on your vote in an art thread. Now if you like Cartoons's (is that even correct grammar?) design simply because you do, that's fine. But don't vote simply because "it's supposed to be defensive". In actuality, and it's my...
  5. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 9 - Art Poll 2

    Very true. C'mon people, it's art... not an ability/stat spread/typing poll. It comes down to simply "I like this artwork best, that's my decision." When it comes down to artwork, it's VERY difficult to persuade somebody else by explaining your opinion. Just judge on which one you like best and...
  6. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 5c - Secondary Ability Poll 4

    *sigh* Oh well for NSA. Fine... fine... but don't start whining about this CaP if one ability ends up being used almost exclusively and the other getting no love. Anyways, while I see Traceas useful, our CaP doesn't need it. Why? Porygon2. I don't give a crap if it's UU, Porygon2 is highly...
  7. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 5c - Secondary Ability Poll 3

    No offense, but I think we've squeezed all the knowledge possible out of Static. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind Static... but people shouldn't blindly vote because it'll give us "more knowledge". Deck Knight pretty much sums up Static and what it can do. No more knowledge is needed. And by...

    Geez, way to come entirely out of left field with this one, lol. But seriously, this is a REALLY nice design. Very creative.
  9. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 8 - Stat Spread Poll

    Deck Knight/tennisace is my choice.
  10. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 5c - Secondary Ability Poll

    It's not just the fact that I don't see another ability I want on this CaP, but we're also utilizing a neglected ability, right? Well... we've done that. Having a second one just isn't necessary, IMO. Therefore, my vote goes to No Secondary Ability.
  11. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 5a - Ability Discussion

    Again, just throwing my two cents... although my two cents have been spoken by many others several times. Shield Dust: Major ability IMO. Let's face it... hax is eventually going to screw you. Let's take Elec/Dragon, actually. x4 resistance to Electricity means hello switch! You take the...
  12. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Art Submissions

    Heh heh. Very nice personality to your artwork. I like that! You kinda have my attention in terms of the "badass"-looking dragon. Mythical looks are always a crowd pleaser... at least, in my opinion.
  13. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Concept Assessment

    Forewarn also doesn't give away a key move sometimes. Example: it's pretty much a no-brainer that Heatran will carry Fire Blast or Explosion, which is what Forewarn alerts you to (I think Explosion has priority, but I've hardly used Forewarn so I can't say for sure). Some Heatrans run HP Grass...
  14. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Art Submissions

    Sleek... I like this design Doug. You have any thoughts on the color scheme yet? And I agree... the replacement of the single talon feet was a pretty nice idea. Overall, I enjoy this design. Definitely has promise, methinks.
  15. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 4 - Style Bias Poll 2

    Wouldn't mind equal stats at all, frankly. But if we need to slightly skew the style of this Pokemon one way, I'd prefer it in the Defensive direction. Maybe it's just me... but I think I'd like our Elec/Dragon to have a slight defense advantage.
  16. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Art Submissions

    This is extremely cute! It's also a pretty nice concept for the Elec/Dragon. Then again, there's a ton of entries so far that I really have my eye on. I think the Yellow and Purple were excellent color choices (my opinion anyway). Is it me or does its tail remind anybody else of Pachirisu? Meh...
  17. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 4 - Style Bias Poll 1

    I do like your reasoning on this Deck Knight. Especially since you mentioned a concern for Magic Guard on this Electric/Dragon (I share this concern as well). And now that you mention it... a defensive Dragon WOULD be a nice change of pace (not to insult Dragonite, but Elec/Dragon is better...
  18. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Concept Assessment

    Thought Scrappy would be Unallowed soon. After thinking and thinking, I think having a Scrappy Spin would just hurt stall too much. Now, whether or not it'll be completely useless, I can't say... but there's a fair bunch who utilize stall in the metagame... and it gets really messed up when the...
  19. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Part 3 - Secondary Type Poll 2

    While I have no ill towards Elec/Dragon (it's a pretty sweet combo IMO), I'm still pulling for the Electric/Bug. SR weakness doesn't concern me as much as others. I'll admit, it's annoying to have one, but not a huge deal-breaker for me (unless it strips off 50%, then I might have a problem).
  20. CAP 8 CAP 8 - Concept Assessment

    I myself don't think Electric/Dragon is a horrible idea... but I too fear a bit much out of a Tinted Lens Draco Meteor/Outrage. It's already bad enough on Pokemon like Salamence, if it gets unresisted coverage (essentially what Tinted Lens does), it could be a bit too much!
