  1. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 11 - Non-Attacking Moves Discussion

    Skill Swap is really interesting and something I never considered before. It's use is not only for Illuminate, the inconsequential ability here, but for Dry Skin. You can run a Sun team and effectively neuter an opposing team member with the crippling 12.5% HP loss and increased damage from fire...
  2. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 10 - Attacking Moves Discussion

    Just some thoughts about our threats list. One of the inherent problems with this CAP is just the selection of the threats list. We didn't think it through when we wanted a way to attack Water types and be threatened by Rock and Ground types. Water is only weak to Grass and Electric while...
  3. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 10 - Attacking Moves Discussion

    Just because of Dry Skin, people think that Mollux is oriented towards working only in rain. That is not the case. Sure, Mollux's most optimal position may be in rain to utilize the recovery every turn, but that does not mean that it is restricted to only being part of those teams. Essentially...
  4. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 10 - Attacking Moves Discussion

    Venoshock- With proper support, Mollux could potentially have strong STAB options in Fire Blast and Venshock, 120 BP and a 130 BP respectively. Being a fire-type, Mollux would have Steel types thinking twice before switching in making the poison typing a very reliable attacking option (except...

  10. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 6 - Stat Spread Submissions

    I have a spread but don't have the time to submit it! Hope everyone else can pull off some amazing ones that appeal to the community. Just a comment though. Personally, I'd like to see how CAP handles SE Rock moves from physical threats like Gyrados, Conkeldurr, etc. It would be cool to also see...
  11. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 5 - Stat Limits

    With regards to offense, wouldn't it be better to just allow it to become an offensive threat after it has finished setting up? Having a high initial base stat for offense is unnecessary for such a bulky mon, in my opinion, so forcing it to raise its stats if it wanted to wreck teams would seem...
  12. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 4 - Primary Ability Discussion

    I want to mention that while this pokemon uses Dry Skin, it doesn't necessarily need to be in the rain to utilize it. Though being in rain would optimize recovery, using Dry Skin to soak up water moves like Water Absorb works to recover 25% of its maximum health. This means that we can still use...
  13. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 4 - Primary Ability Discussion

    Instead of comparing Drought on CAP with Ninetails, the constructive argument, I believe, would be to compare the potentially new weather starter to other ones, Hippowdon, Ttar, Politoed and how they benefit from their own abilities. Namely Ttar, who has a weakness to water, grass, bug, steel...
  14. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 3 - Threat Discussion

    I'm sorry for dragging SunnyE into this. I wasn't hoping for that to happen at all. I'll be more constructive with my posts. There are two ways that I see we can combat water-types. That is by ability and coverage. The ability route wouldn't necessarily allow us to threaten water-types, just...
  15. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 3 - Threat Discussion

    The one other thing that I think we should focus on is not only how we plan to fight back those pesky water types, but what we plan to do against all the other pokemon in basic strategy. Volcarona and Heatran are mainly hard-hitting pokemon, the former usually a set-up sweeper. I can totally...
  16. CAP 14 CAP 3 - Part 3 - Threat Discussion

    Dusk's proposal is extremely welcomed, in my opinion. This not only allows it to fill a special niche, but blocks many popular special attacking types. Resistance to ice, grass, fire, and a way to fight back against water types handily would enable it to become a sort of special sponge. Poll...
