CAP 4 Pre-evos - Part 8.1.1 - Cupra Dex Entry Poll

**jas61292** · Feb 5th, 2013, 12:52:06 AM

TLing CAP 5. Leading CAP4 prevos. This is totally not too much work for me. Not only have I done like 6 hours of writing for CAP posts, but I actually got my homework done today. That's better than usual.

Anyways, yay, dex entries. This is the thread for Cupra. Argalis's dex poll can be found here. So, like with names, I just went with slating everything that followed the rules that was marked as a final submission. Nothing complicated here.

This will be a Multipe Bold Vote. This means that you can vote for as many entries as you want to in no particular order.

Quote:

First Entry I Like
Second Entry I Like
Third Entry I Like

If the voter wishes, he may post comments on his vote below the actual vote. As with IRV or normal bold voting, only the votes themselves should be bold and none of the supplementary text should be bold.

The entrants are as follows:

Quanyails
Eagle4
TheSteamPunk
QuimicVital
Timeblaze
inanimate blob
tente

Please use only the submitter names themselves in your vote. As always, only post votes in this thread. If you want to make a comment you can, but please keep discussion to irc. And now, here they are, in order of final submission:

Black 2/White 2: They are customarily awarded to the best of athletes, a tradition carried over from the past.

White: When frightened, they hide underneath their wings. Due to this, trainers often mistake Cupra for fallen acorn shells.
Black 2/White 2: Whilst capturing a Cupra gives great luck, it can also make the trainer seem extremely obsessive.

White: It climbs trees to survey the forests in which it lives. It finds doing so enjoyable.
Black 2/White 2: To even be able to glimpse Cupra, a Trainer must spot its luminous eyes at night.

White: Looking right into Cupra's eyes can put someone a bit sleepy, it's believed that this is Cupra's way of hunting its smaller preys.
Black 2/White 2: Its shell is incredibly valuable, but most people attempt to evolve it to Aurumoth to sell it, once it becomes its wings. This always backfires, as it's not possible to get the latter's shell.

Black: Due to its shyness, it prefers to watch others from a distance. If discovered, it will flee.
White: It's said to never blink. Its luminous eyes are startling to see at night.
Black 2/White 2: Due to the value of its wings, it has become uncommon. It takes time for it to trust others.

White: This Pokémon can be found underground burrowing for elements. Its complex metabolism breaks nutrients into copper.
Black 2/White 2: Industrialization by humans has caused a lack of copper where this creature burrows, causing its shell to become weaker with time.

White: It lives in the hollows of trees. Trees in which Cupra have lived contain copper residue.
Black/White 2: Poachers hunting for its shell find it within trees. Its eyes make most poachers uneasy.

Any reasoning can be found in the final submission posts, accessable via the

at the top of each quote.

The poll will be open 24 hours. And here is Aurumoth, for reference.

Our Prevos so far:

inanimate blob's and QuimicVital's entries are well written, but way too long for a Pokedex.
