Hello friends, i was going to ask about Delibird myself actually, as well as other (underappreciated) Pokemon such as Bibarel, Swanna, Spinda. Obviously these aren't amazing but as Hollywood said they all will be getting analyses, so I would be more than happy to quickly write up all three of these, as I don't think they are as complicated as say Mesprit. Is it OK to do so Hollywood ?

edit @ below, ah my bad i didn't see that, I'm glad Swanna is getting recognition though :]
Like Hollywood said they will all be getting an analysis, however we are holding off on giving less viable mons an analysis until more of the viable ones are done. Unless you can provide solid reasoning on why Bibarel and Spinda should get one now.

I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.

alright no worries, i can wait a couple weeks :]

and Assault Vest Spinda is based!!!

I believe Hollywood turned down Delibird. I'd like to make a case for it, as I've said, Spikes + Freeze-Dry is really neat and Destiny Bond is gr8. It's a cool suicide lead and has advantages over Crustle: Freeze-Dry, DBond, Speed. Garbodor: Freeze-Dry, DBond, ability to beat Seismitoad. Ferroseed: Speed, not setup on by Gurdurr, DBond is cool. Basically, over all of them, it has Freeze-Dry and DBond to utilize over them. For reference, here's the set I've been testing:


Delibird @ Focus Sash
Ability: Vital Spirit
EVs: 232 HP / 24 SpA / 252 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Spikes
- Freeze-Dry
- Fake Out
- Destiny Bond
 
Could I maybe make a case for Gogoat. This thing is totally useful, I dont see why it shouldnt get an analysis. The best set ive seen is a Bulk Up and substitute one. It has above average defenses, decent attack. Horn Leech and Leftovers provide plenty of recovery, though even milk drink is an option. It can set up all over leads, water types, grass types without poison typing. Its just a really neat pokemon and I think with sap sipper, bulk up, horn leech, and milk drink, it finds its niche and fits well into teams needing a grass type absorber. It works differently than Sawsbuck since its a lot bulkier, isnt weak to fighting. It can avoid status with sub and yeah, I think could function well on teams in need of something like it.

no stop making cases for things.

we'll get to them once we knock out some of the higher priority stuff.

Both Camerupt and Slurpuff are in need of a writer. You won't need to do anything skeleton related, just take Soulgazer's skeletons and turn them into prose. i would prefer it if someone with experience to take these over, but as long as you don't have a bad reputation in C&C, im fine with it.

That being said, don't post a new thread right away, post a thread once I give you the OK.

Basically, you'll c/p the skeleton into a new thread and write it. Remove any mentions of Spiritomb and Omastar, and add Kabutops if it needs to be mentioned. gogogo

Some changes will need to be made to them, but QC can help you out with that. I'd just tell you what to change, but I don't think we're fully agreed yet.

You may reserve up to two of these sets and get started on them. The same rules for reservations apply here. You will not need to post an Overview, Checks and Counters, or Other Options section, as I am still covering them in my original analysis.
