If we're talking low BST, I'm waiting for a Capmon with a Speed stat less than Shuckle's.

It'd be friends with every Trick Room user out there, and Fidgit would see more reason to use its secondary ability.


But there are really many ways to go about BST. Choosing just one form of offense or going glass cannon attacker (with priority perhaps) or choosing slow tank/supporter. It's just a matter of placing the most stat points in the best of places.

CAP has rules against such 'optimization' of stats, if I remember right, because historically we've always been trying to 'give stats as close to a real Pokemon as possible'. But didn't BW break those self-imposed limits for us when it came out? So maybe it's time to re-evaluate what is acceptable and not when it comes to stat spreads?

Well, whatever CAP4 turns out to be I'm hoping for some brave stat spreads to give my support to, when that stage of the process comes around.
