A CaP team does not need one of those pokemon. It should be tailored around the differences in the CaP metagame rather than just being a compelation of the community's recent work.

Overall, this is a problem. CaPs should not be overpowering, I think it's really time we start making CaPs on the premise that they have built-in weaknesses. Allowing standard pokemon to compete with them, rather than CaPs replacing them all together. I don't see a major problem with syclant's placement, and pyroak fits in perfectly, but in order to gain credibility, The Top 3 should not be dominated by CaPs.

Congrats Doug and X-Act on admin.
