CAP 7 CAP 7 - Part 15b - New Move Poll 3

[speedwobbles225]

All SS does is help sweep.

After a drop, base power becomes what, 160?

Since we dont want a sweeper, shadow claw fits perfectly

Doesn't do amazing damage, but thats not what this is supposed to do.

Vote Rift Hop

 

[LuistheNinja]

Shadow Strike! its the best option the Description talks by itsfelf..so yeah...

 

[Elegy]

After a drop, base power becomes what, 160?

Nope, the base power doesn't change one bit. =/ You can stop a second incoming Shadow Strike by switching to a Normal type or Physical wall or something.

Voted Shadow Strike, like we need another U-turn, pfft!

 

[Goodbar]

I didn't really like shadow strike, kinda seems like it helps it as a sweeper more than as a scout, but we'll see

 

[Blazebat]

Shadow Strike, it gonna have u-turn, what switching out to do some more dmamge use choice band scizor.

 

[Frosty]

Shadow Strike for the reasons previously mentioned.

 

[hydrolphin]

Voted Shadow Strike yet again. Rift Hop offers nothing that it doesn't already have. Shadow Strike offers STAB. This thing needs reliable STAB to use, so it actually can hurt something.

Shadow Strike for Doug's reasoning. Don't see how rift hop or whatever helps with scouting and forcing switches. Plus solid Ghost STAB is cool (fuck you Latias, Gengar and co)

 

[Objection]

We're supposed to be fixing CAP7's lack of powerful ghost moves. We're not supposed to be 'fixing' U-turn. Vote Shadow Strike or vote no move (we really should have done the latter).

 

[ParadOxymoron]

Thank god Rift Hop is losing. It would probably be fine if it just cancelled out the damage, but halving, to me, is such an inelegant way of doing it. Half the time it doesn't even matter that much, when half of what sucks about Stealth Rock damage anyway is how it breaks Focus Sashes.

 

[Magmortified]

Shadow Strike will be our new move.

We're done here.

Rift Hop is better for this CAP, it's like one of those signature moves for it.
