[Crux]

I was just looking through this thread quickly and it seems to me that the Little Cup community has lost the purpose of a CCAT and are simply voting for and nominating Pokemon that they like or think are strong. That is not the point of a CCAT at all. The CCAT is supposed to be something through which people are able to learn something about the metagame, and something that allows people to better understand the concepts of Little Cup. At the moment, neither the voting nor the nominations reflect this, as you are simply voting and nominating stuff that a) we know everything about; or b) there is very little to discover concerning it.

To that end I would like to suggest one of two things. The first is the suggestion of a different Houndour set. I would like to suggest this:

@Eviolite
- Nasty Plot
- Fire Blast
- Dark Pulse
- Substitute / Other Filler Move.

I understand that nominations are over, but as it stands this CCAT will achieve absolutely nothing and is a waste of time. The set I have listed has two very major problems. 1) Lack of speed makes it difficult to sweep and 2) it is prone to revenge kills. I propose that we use this set because we will be able to discover two things 1) how is it possible for a low speed set up sweeper (or low speed mon that is offensive in general) to function in Little Cup. If we can do this, it will allow for a great amount of versatility in the metagame as currently many strong offensive pokemon are being neglected due to their low speed and learning how to work around that will benefit the metagame greatly and 2) how can we best operate to take advantage of revenge kills.

I understand that the nomination phase is over and that the voting stage has begun, but I would like to nominate this set for the reasons above.
