Captured Above: An average user of Water Bubble in Balanced Hackmons
What?
I am beginning a suspect on Water Bubble, as per the demand for one in a previously conducted vote (link here)
Why?
The sheer power augmentation of Water Bubble seems to put it into the category of the OP of the BH Suspect Thread:
However, there is some argument about it having limited users, and outright hard counters in Water Abosb et al, though it is true that these can be played around as well with moves such as Core Enforcer. To read more, view the discussion in the Suspects thread.
Though I think it should be pretty evident that Water Bubble is very splashable :^)
How?
It's simple; get 2700 COIL in the BH Suspect ladder; you can vote! Do so by making a new alt with "WB" anywhere in the name of the alt but they must be as one unit. See the following handy example:
Note:Just because the COIL is less than the CFZ Suspect, does not make it easier; in fact, this suspect is slightly harder since it may require more games for the same amount of COIL.
Here are the specific technical details for this suspect's COIL if you are interested:
B=11
COIL=2700
GXE Table:
COIL=2700
GXE Table:
- Water Bubble has been part of the ladder since the beginning and it was one of the earliest things to be discussed for ban. People that have been playing since then probably already have had good experience facing/using it. So I'm giving people a few options to achieve reqs with:
- [OPTION 1] if you have an alt on PS! that matches your Smogon username perfectly and was registered before today, February 12, with rank in the original BH Ladder (i.e. the rank should NOT say "[Gen 7] Balanced Hackmons Suspect Test") that corresponds to the COIL value, you may substitute that alt instead of a new suspect one and vote
- [OPTION 2] Alternatively, if you have used an alt that has been registered before today and used for a BH smogon tournament or laddering challenge for BH with an smogon post showing that it belongs to you and edited at most before today, February 12 you may use that alt as well for achieving reqs.
- [OPTION 3] If you cannot do either of the above, for this suspect you must ladder to achieve reqs
You must post your proof of reqs in this thread and play your games on the main pokemonshowdown.com sim. A new Balanced Hackmons (suspect) ladder shall be created for this suspect.
Do:
- Post your proof and, if you wish, your stance on the matter, in this thread. Read the following CAREFULLY on how to do so:
- For ALL OPTIONSof proof, you MUST FIRST AND FOREMOST PROVIDE AN IMAGE OF THE ALT WITH PROOF OF OWNERSHIP. I can't stress that last part enough. Refer to these examples of how to do this: example1 example2 example3
- Last suspect I spent a lot of time reminding people about this so I'm saying it up front now; if you don't do at least the above, your vote won't be counted
- MENTION WHICH OPTION YOU ARE USING to achieve reqs
- For OPTION1 and OPTION2, YOU must show
- proof of ownership via smogon post that matches the above criteria i.e. edited at most before today
- As stated above, an image of proof of ownership
- the calculation that your rank does correspond to COIL that achieves Reqs. You can make use of Wofram Alpha or Google Calculator
- Here is a link where you can just fill the equation in with your GXE and N, where N is number of games (leave x the way it is). Make sure that in your final result it says log base 2 (subscript 2) instead of log 2(x)
- If this is too complicated, just do OPTION 3
- For ALL OPTIONSof proof, you MUST FIRST AND FOREMOST PROVIDE AN IMAGE OF THE ALT WITH PROOF OF OWNERSHIP. I can't stress that last part enough. Refer to these examples of how to do this: example1 example2 example3
- Post in this thread if you have any questions about THIS SUSPECT PROCESS
- Post your stance on the matter in this thread without proof. (Why? Post in the main suspect thread instead)
- Post anything in this thread unrelated to this suspect (with or without proof)
This suspect period will last 2 weeks, till February 26th. I will try to begin the voting immediately after confirming some other details on how it will be done.
If you have already achieved reqs via OPTION1 and OPTION2 you may begin posting proof right now.
GLHF!
