Hey all!

It was clear from the thread that basically no one wanted Frisk/Limber to be changed, so we are running a poll on just the Hidden Ability! Iron Fist will still be on the slate.

This will be a Ranked Pairs vote (RP) (a form of voting where each candidate is ranked according to head to head matchups with each of its competitors in a directed acyclic graph), the details of which were discussed here.

This is a ranked vote: order does matter! You can upvote your favorites and downvote your least favorites. You may choose to rank as many or as few options as you like, but we encourage you to rank as many options as possible to ensure your preferences are taken into account.

Bold your votes and nothing else!
A typical vote might look like the following:
Most Preferred
Second Most Preferred
Third Most Preferred


Any comments that the voter has would go below the votes in non-bold text. Bold text is used to determine what the user's votes are, so none of the supplementary text should be in bold.
CAP uses automated scripts to count votes. For this reason, it is very important for all ballots to be submitted correctly. If you do not compose a legal ballot, your post will be subject to moderation.
  • The scripts count bold words in ballots, so do NOT bold anything in your ballot other than the options you are voting for.
  • Do NOT put any formatting other than bold in your post.
  • Only one option per line.
  • The spelling of options must be EXACTLY correct and must match the spelling listed above.
  • Capitalization and spaces are ignored by the vote counting scripts, but you probably should not depend on it.
Composing a proper ballot is easy. Enter BBCode Edit Mode (the A in the upper right corner). Copy/paste the options directly from the OP to your ballot as plain unbolded text. Delete and/or rearrange the options to suit your preference and the poll type. Bold your vote text using bold tags or re-enter rich text mode, highlight your vote and click B. Spelling or formatting errors may spoil your ballot, so be careful!

CAP uses blind voting. Other people's votes won't appear in the thread, but they are counted and will be made visible at the end of the voting timeframe. For more information about this change, check out this PRC thread.

Asking for votes for your submission or for the submissions of others is not allowed. Anyone found to have done so risks punishment at the moderation team's discretion. If you find that someone has broken this rule, please contact the CAP moderation team with your evidence and no one else. Mini-moderation of this rule is also considered a serious offense and can be punished.

Your options are below:

Iron Fist
Cursed Body
Keen Eye
Infiltrator
Rattled
Unnerve


And those options without any formatting:

Iron Fist
Cursed Body
Keen Eye
Infiltrator
Rattled
Unnerve


You guys have 24 hours!
 
Cursed Body
Unnerve
Keen Eye
Infiltrator
Rattled
Iron Fist


Going off Kitsunoh's original concept being the ultimate scout, the ability to occasionally disable the opponent's moves with Cursed Body could provide some utility to that role (even if Frisk is generally much better for scouting) and fits with most ghosts, if a bit generic.
Unnerve and Keen eye are basically all flavor, but Unnerve gets the edge for not being entirely useless while Keen Eye... well, unless for some reason evasion boosting gets unbanned or Mud Slap gets a buff on the level of Gen V to Gen VI Knock off I can't see it ever coming into play.
Infiltrator and Rattled are okay but I'd be iffy on Rattled until Pokedex entries are done, and I don't really know if either of them really fit its intended role.
I just don't think Iron Fist fits.
