In this thread, discuss CAP 9's concept. What kinds of directions could we go from "Stopping the Secondary"?
Here's what I want discussed:Name: Stop the Secondary
Description: A Pokémon that through means of ability, moves, and typing, can stop a variety of the non damaging affect of moves and moves of non damaging origin.
Justification: While the immediate threat of damaging moves is large and present, the affect of moves such as status, Trick, Leech Seed, Taunt, Stealth Rock, Spikes have arguably had a greater affect to the metagame than anything has ever had, something that this would greatly look in to.
Questions to be Answered:
~ How easily would a Pokémon with such large of a niche be able to fit into a competitive team?
~ How large of an impact would the reducation of non damaging affects and moves have on the metagame?- What, if any, would happen to the types of teams being used?~ How much of an affect does typing have on the ability for ANY Pokémon to perform this duty?
- How would this affect the usage of these types of moves?
- What are common secondary moves in today's metagame?
- What does it mean to "Stop the Secondary"?
- What are the possibilities of this CAP? (Try not to poll jump too much here)
- How are immunities used in the current metagame? How can we apply that knowledge to this project?
- What do we gain from an immunity pokemon?
- No bashing. Obviously this is common sense. No insulting, no passive aggressive insulting, and no witty remarks. Try to keep it clean.
- No poll jumping. When I said, "What are the possibilities of this CAP?", I did not mean "Well, give this pokemon ___ ability with ___ moves with ___ typing". You are welcome to give possibilities for this CAP in terms of abilities, moves, and typing, but not combined. Furthermore, do not post assuming CAP 9 got these traits, rather post to promote discussion on "Stopping the Secondary".
- Don't be afraid to ask questions. This is what this thread is here for. I already saw lots of misconceptions and confusion with the above concept last poll. To avoid it happening again, be sure to to look into this thread.
