SHSP and I have been talking about our Electric-type coverage, specifically Discharge. Originally, he found that there was enough community consensus in Moveset Discussion to put Discharge on the required moves list. The topic was largely around Electric-type coverage, but Discharge was included to compliment the nature of CAP29 doing damage while fishing for status (as seen with Scald and Sludge Bomb).
However, we have heard the groans of movepool creators, as Discharge is not a TM/TR that is easy to add to a movepool. In our early weeks here of playtesting, we've found Discharge to not be a vital part of CAP29's kit. Therefore, we are moving Discharge from Required to Optional. Please note that Thunderbolt is still a required move, as we do find some Electric-type coverage to be important for CAP29 to have access to in teambuilder. Thunder would also be a smart addition in a similar vein. But you do not need to force Discharge into your movepool anymore. It's still optional though, so if you were happy with your solution and would like to keep it, you're welcome to do so.
