PS: SubNP Darkrai doesn't have to be on a HO team. It works wonders on balance as well.

That's interesting, why do we choose this approach? Isn't it possible for a member to provide the basic framework of a team featuring our first pick and then go on to list possible core members? After that point the two approaches get pretty similar and random people can still vote stupid stuff no matter what plan we decide upon. For example if that troll suggestion Dialga pulls through, we can draw up a general team frame work consisting of Dialga + Smeargle + offensive SR setter + revenge killer + priority attacker (cause Ingrain Smeargle would be the best way for us to run it ATM so we need something for Deo-S leads) + core member. Afterwards we can each give ideas on choices for specific roles and work from there. I've never participated in a CCAT before, though, so I'm probably missing something.


Well, I did say push not force but I understand what you mean. I was thinking about weatherless Heavy Offense as I know Anik suggested it because he uses it on his own weatherless HO and really likes it so I figured that was the intended direction he had in mind. Anyways, I was more interested in the bulkish Dragons which was the other main reason why I excluded the majority of these picks. I felt these three guys were going to be more active in the battles they were in instead of waiting on the sidelines for the perfect chance to sweep.
