  1. Two type move combos and their coverage

    I think Normal/Fighting with Scrappy is only resisted by Shedinja.
  2. Togekiss

    Don't forget, there's so much Togekiss can do I'm sure it can find a new niche even if all the old standard sets are outclassed or left behind. My favourite Gen 4 Pokemon, should remain as fun in Gen 5.

    How does Trace work against Illusion?
  4. Scizor

    Scizor can just do too much with one set to not make him a top tier Pokemon. With a simple CB set, you get a scout, revenge killer, end-game cleaner, and trapper. He's got the bulk to take some shots and the typing to go with it. Any team can use him barring full-stall and that is the key...
  5. Voodoom (OU Analysis - Pre-Playtesting)

    Kiss of Doom Voodoom @ Life Orb Volt Absorb Aura Sphere Dark Pulse Thunder Wave/Psychic Close Combat Naive/Rash Evs: 4 Atk/252 SpAtk/252 Spe The goal here is to receive a Plot-pass from Togekiss, Thunder Wave the switch in and proceed to sweep with what should be the primary counter...
  6. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    Resists Fire, Water, Ice, Steel, Bug, Poison (>_>), immune to Normal and Fighting. That's every priority move save Shadow Sneak and Sucker Punch. Offensively, it's resisted by Empoleon, Bibarel, Sharpedo, Dialga, Cacturne...yeah not bad.

    VOODOOM, the grudge Pokemon. VOODOOM seeks to cause pain wherever, whenever, and however possible. Only a truly joyous being can befriend a VOODOOM; all others beware.
  8. CAP Server Statistics - June & July 2010

    Didn't we just revamp all the old CAPmons? Dragon Dance Pyroak? We all know Colossoil and Stratagem are powerhouses, we designed them to be. Then we made Krillowatt and broke him with Magic Guard while making Rev and Pyroak way too strong with the revamp (Syclant is still meh). Most CAPs are...
  9. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 12a - Non-Attacking Moves Discussion

    Glare/Stun Spore would be nice. Togekiss NEEDS paralysis support outside of Thunder Wave. Seriously, my Togekiss team had Jirachi or Togekiss rely on Body Slam just to paralyze Swampert or Gliscor. Force Palm and Body Slam deserve mention for the same reasons. Remember, if you are banking on...
  10. My Theories about Banning

    The whole metaphor hinges on a normal distribution of Pokemon "power". If you assume a limited few are very powerful and OU and some are very weak, with the bulk in the middle, then yes, removing the top 10% or so will open a lot of room for a lot of Pokemon. However, "power" and skill, in many...
  11. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 11b - Attacking Moves Poll

    Ice Punch Paleo Wave Sucker Punch Sucker Punch is situational with Voodoom's high speed, only useful for Starmie and Scarfers. I see no reason not to include it. The argument against Gengar falls apart since Gengar almost always has HP Fire and if it doesn't, Scizor will take advantage of...
  12. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 11a - Attacking Moves Discussion

    Paleo Wave would be good for Gyarados...and Moltres?
  13. Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

    I don't know if it's been mentioned but does anyone else think Kibago evolves into Ononokusu (eventually)? Kibago is a the Tusk Pokemon and a Dragon type. Ononokusu looks part Dragon and has quite the Tusks.
  14. The unpredictability factor.

    If you expect something that will be right a significant proportion of the time (ie: Scizor with Bullet Punch) then you shouldn't bother looking out for the likes of Psychic Lucario. Sure, some things find holes in the metagame and thrive and then become standard but those are high specific...
  15. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Name Submissions

    I got two, both with the same theme: 1) Stitch: simple, reads well, but I dunno about "Wild Stitch appears!", might work better for Doug's prevo. 2) Stitchemup: "Stitch-Em-Up", reads decently, sounds good for a Pokemon I feel. The reason I want stitch theme is because stitches result from...

  17. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 8 - Counters Discussion

    If you use the more practical Special Defensive RestTalk set (252 HP, 176 SpD with Careful), Gyarados takes max 28.4% to 33.8% from Life Orb 252 SpAtk (neutral nature) CAP11. With Intimidate, physical attacks won't be doing much.
  18. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 8 - Counters Discussion

    Zapdos is an obvious choice, thanks to decent all around stats and effective STAB (Drill Peck off base 90 attack is decent). Yes, new movesets/strategies will be needed but Zapdos has the bulk, typing and movepool to fend off Togekiss + CAP11 reasonably well. Heracross can also function well...
  19. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 7a - Secondary Ability Discussion

    Let's see what Volt Absorb gives us: A key immunity to switch in on 95% Paralysis protection The ability to heal outside of a move To me, this sounds fairly defensive; so why not an offensive counter part? What does Togekiss like offensively: Slow opponents (Paralysis) Annoyance (Flinch...
  20. CAP 11 CAP 11 - Part 6b - Ability Poll

    I would have preferred some other options but no matter. I'm picking Volt Absorb, despite not liking it. It's the most effective option here, despite helping other Pokemon too. Another reason is that I was quite upset that Ground didn't make it as the primary type for the same reason as...
