All right! Voting is now over, we have a total of 6 winning submissions!

Winners!

So we have...

zxgzxg's Gatling Spikes
My Hoof Stomp and Guardian's Bolt
Revenge of Depressed Gay's Spooky Slowdown
CharSiuEmboar's Toxic Tiara and Howling Gale

Name: Gatling Spikes
Typing:

Category:

BP: 35
Acc: 100
Misc.: Ferrothorn must have the move Spikes and the ability Iron Barbs.
Effect: Hits 2-5 times.

Niche: Helps physical Fighting- and Dark- types like Urshifu and Pheromosa break past Fairy-types.

Name: Hoof Stomp
Typing:

Category:

BP: 50
Acc: 100
Misc.: Glastrier must have Icicle Crash
Effect: Reduce the target's speed by one stage.

Niche: Ice coverage is godsend for certain mons, especially considering how Lando is roaming pretty much everywhere in 3v3 formats. Even something with as little BP can be useful for some mons, and the secondary effect can help for some nifty follow ups.


Name: Guardian's Bolt
Typing:

Category:

BP: 85
Acc: 80
Misc.: Koko must have the ability Electric Surge and the move Thunderbolt
Effect: If you score a K.O. with this move, Electric Terrain is set up and this move gets its PP restored.

Niche: A strong move for a god mon. This move can, in the right conditions, be a powerful cleaning tool, though its low accuracy prevents it from being spammed too freely. Electric coverage is nice to have anyway.

Name: Spooky Slowdown
Typing:

Category:

BP: -
Acc: -
Misc.: Mimikyu must know trick room.
Effect: It sets up trick room

Niche: Time to make trick room teams viable, by giving a room to assist our slow trick room sweepers. Something like Glastrier would love this.

Name: Howling Gale
Typing:

Category:

BP: 100
Acc: 75
Misc.: Tornadus must have Hurricane, and must not be fainted.
Effect: Flying Type Magma Storm Clone.

Niche: the high damage helps provide some strong coverage, albeit with low accuracy, and can make a misplay into a costly opportunity that the user of the assist can set up with.


Name: Toxic Tiara
Typing: Poison
Category:

BP: -
Acc: 100%
Misc.: Salazzle must have a Poison Type move.
Effect: this move has the effects of the Corrosive ability, and the opponent is Poisoned (normal poison).

Niche: It's not Toxic, but it's still guaranteed chip damage you can inflict in something that is otherwise not expecting it, even Poison and Steel types.

These will all be added to the upcoming spreadsheet.

With that in mind, we can start the next slate...

Battle Stadium Giants
​

Those 5 pokémon are the ones ranked highest in the Battle Stadium Singles viability rankings. Even though it's a different metagame with dynamax to take into account as well, there is no doubt that they are still probably massive in our metagame. You can sub up to one move for each mon and this slate is gonna be open for around a week.

P.S. Join the discord for more discussion! Link's on the OP.

[zxgzxg]

Name: Pyro Pass
Typing:

Category: Status
BP: —
Acc: —
Misc.: Must have the move Court Change
Effect: Raises the user’s Attack and Special Attack by 1 and changes their type to match the move in their first moveslot.

Niche: Gives any Pokemon strong STAB and offensive Pokemon defensive counterplay to their threats. As a drawback, Cinderace’s offensive sets are more limited.



Name: Guardian’s Tide
Typing:

Category: Special
BP: 85
Acc: 95
Misc.: Must have the move Surf and ability Misty Surge
Effect: If a KO is landed with this move, Misty Terrain is set up and this move’s PP is restored.

Niche: Because Misty Terrain is much weaker than Electric Terrain, the move is much more accurate than Guardian’s Bolt, making it easier to use. Provides Water coverage for Pokemon like Volcarona and Tapu Koko.


Name: Two-Headed Turret
Typing:

Category: Physical
BP: 75
Acc: 100
Misc.: Must have the move Dragon Darts
Effect: Hits twice. The first hit uses the user's Attack stat, and the second uses the user's Special Attack stat.

Niche: Dragon isn't very helpful coverage, but it can serve as neutral coverage for mixed attackers. As a drawback, Dragapult's special attacking sets are more limited.

 

[MegaBanette69]

Name: Dragons Propulsion
Typing: Dragon
Category: Status
BP:--
Acc:--
Misc: Must have Dragon Darts
Effect: +1 Spe to allies

Niche: Speeds up allies with a mediocre speed stat to make them speedy

 

[CharSiuEmboar]

D2 Spirit
Typing: Dragon
Category: Physical
BP: 50
Acc: 90%
Effect: it is Dragon Darts (so 2-Hit Move) but with a slightly reduced accuracy.

Call me lazy, but if you have a B2 Spirit Bomber launching off map Dreepy Missiles, you might as well go all in. Slightly reduced the accuracy due to the more time the opponent has to avoid if they wish. I've not limited it, mainly as the 1/battle is enough, and as the Dreepy Missiles are already a part of Dragapult'design, I didn't also fancy forcing a Physical Dragapult as they are often special due to the improved Movepool.

 

[woworiginal]

Move Name: Otherworldly Launch
Category: Physical
Type: Flying
BP: 75
Acc: 100
Requirements: Must have Air Slash
Effect: User switches out.

Category:

BP: -
Acc: 60
Misc.: Must know the move Nature's Madness and the ability Misty Surge.
Effect: Deals damage equal to 75% of the target's remaining HP.

Niche: A potentially game changing move that allows Tapu Fini to provide excellent offensive support, provided it can hit.

:ss/landorus-t::

Typing:

Category:

BP: -
Acc: -
Misc.: Must know the move Bulldoze.
Effect: Removes all hazards and terrain on the field, then sets SR on the opposing side.

[Gravity Monkey]

Submissions are now closed! For the votes, we're gonna follow the standard 3 ordered votes system. Your votes should look something like this:

Landorus: User, User, User
Cinderace: User, User, User
Tapu Fini: User, User, User
Celesteela: User, User, User
Dragapult: User, User, User

First is gonna get 3 points, second 2 points, last 1 point.
Considering self votes, you get 2 points to place for each submission you've made. Basically, if you subbed 3 moves, you get 6 points to manage. You can then put two of your subs in first place or three of them in second place (or any in last place). If that wasn't clear enough, don't hesitate to ask me lol.

With that said, let's get started!

[Gravity Monkey]

Big thanks to zxgzxg for compiling the votes! With the winners in mind, we can hop on to the next slate, which is gonna be...

Deities Medley
​

Time to complete the legendary duo, trio and quartet we already started. You can sub one move for each of these six pokemon, and the slate is gonna be open for the next week. With that in mind, let's get this going!

 

[zxgzxg]

Name: Guardian's Wrath
Typing:

Category: Special
BP: 40
Acc: 100
Misc.: Must have the ability Psychic Surge and the move Psychic
Effect: +2 Priority. Summons Psychic Terrain.

Niche: Anti-priority. Also good for revenge killing on things like Alakazam, Slowking-Galar, and Latios

Name: Haunted Spur
Typing:

Category: Special
BP: 100
Acc: 100
Misc.: Must have the move Hex
Effect: Drains 50% of the damage done.

Niche: Great move for Ghost-spam teams. Gives a strong nuke and more longevity for Gengar and Dragapult. Doesn't have much use outside Ghost-types, though.

 

[Inmundo]

I know i'm necroposting but i found the concept of a bss pet mod too interesting to just let it die. Checked on both the pet mod discord and the Assist War discord and was told it was fine

Name: Thunderstun
Typing:

Category:

BP: --
Accuracy: 100%
Misc: Sound Based, +1 Priority. Thundurus must have Thunder Wave on its moveset.
Effect: Sound based thunder wave with priority.
Niche: Ever had that opponent that managed to get a boosted sweeper behind a sub ? this will not stop that sweep but will give you a decent chance to fight back. Dark types are inmune (Prankster Immunity), Ground types are immune, can be nullified by electric absorb abilities (Lightning Rod, Motor Drive, Volt Absorb) and Soundproof, grounded mons can be protected by psychic terrain and misty terrain.

Name: Stormdrop
Typing:

(

In hail,

In Sun,

In Sand)
Category:

BP: 80 (100 in any weather)
Accuracy: 100% (80% in Hail, Sun and Sand)
Misc: Tornadus must have Weather Ball and Hurricane on its moveset, clears weathers.
Effect: The BP, Accuracy and type change based on weather. Compared to weather ball, it remains a flying type attack under rain and has shaky accuracy under other weathers. After being used clears weathers regardless of hit or miss.
Niche:
3v3 Metas are so fast paced that battles usually end before a 8 turn weather does, a tornadus carrying both of these moves is very likely carrying a damp rock and rain dance to work as a backup weather setter (hence the favorable Rain use).
This support move allows a team with unfavorable weather matchups to get back into a neutral terrain, or as emergency coverage vs Hail Zapdos and Sun Venusaur, can also be used weatherless as a flying type move.

Name: Fulgur Blitz
Typing:

Category:

BP: 100
Accuracy: 70%
Misc: Can't Miss in Rain
Effect: No extras
Niche: Just mini Thunder for your pocket, extra coverage, doesn't force Thundurus-T to run a unreliable stab.

Name: Seed Strike
Typing:

Category:

BP: 70
Accuracy: 90%
Misc: Bulu must have Horn Leech or Leech seed on its moveset (bold in "or" to emphasize either move works, it doesn't have to be both)
Effect: Summons Leech Seed on hit.
Niche: Grass coverage that can help chip down on walls, inspired by sappy seed. Both offensive and defensive bulu sets use horn leech so i hope the requirement is not restrictive

Name: Mental blow
Typing:

Category:

BP: 70
Accuracy: 100%
Misc: Lele must have Psyshock on its moveset.
Effect: Damages target based on Defense, not Sp. Def.
Niche: Psyshock mini, gives special attackers without the move a way to hit special walls on the physical side.

Name: Wicked Throes
Typing:

Category:

BP: 40
Accuracy: 100%
Misc: Spectrier must have nasty plot
Effect: Always results in a critical hit, on ko boosts spa by 1 stage
Niche: A taste of grim neigh.
