Hey all!

A little later than planned, but I wanted to try and keep all these threads sorted for mornings for me! Stats spreads look good to go across the board.

Remember Voodoom is a bulkyish special attacker.

Voodoom - HP 90 / Atk 85 / Def 80 / SpA 105 / SpD 80 / Spe 110 / BST 550

The above are Voodoom's stats, to inform you guys of what the stats will turn into.

This will be a Preferential Block Vote (PBV) (a form of Instant Runoff Voting which re-runs the counting, each time removing the previously top-ranked candidate in order to determine the 2nd most preferred, 3rd most preferred, etc.), the details of which are outlined here and here. This is a ranked vote: order does matter! You can upvote your favorites and downvote your least favorites. You may choose to rank as many or as few options as you like, but we encourage you to rank as many options as possible to ensure your preferences are taken into account.

Bold your votes and nothing else! A typical vote might look like the following:
Most Preferred
Second Most Preferred
Third Most Preferred


Any comments that the voter has would go below the votes in non-bold text. Bold text is used to determine what the user's votes are, so none of the supplementary text should be in bold.
CAP uses automated scripts to count votes. For this reason, it is very important for all ballots to be submitted correctly. If you do not compose a legal ballot, your post will be subject to moderation.
  • The scripts count bold words in ballots, so do NOT bold anything in your ballot other than the options you are voting for.
  • Do NOT put any formatting other than bold in your post.
  • Only one option per line.
  • Spelling of options must be EXACTLY correct and must match the spelling listed above.
  • Capitalization and spaces are ignored by the vote counting scripts, but you probably should not depend on it.
Composing a proper ballot is easy. Enter BBCode Edit Mode (the A in the upper right corner). Copy/paste the options directly from the OP to your ballot as plain unbolded text. Delete and/or rearrange the options to suit your preference and the poll type. Bold your vote text using bold tags or re-enter rich text mode, highlight your vote and click B. Spelling or formatting errors may spoil your ballot, so be careful!

Please post only your votes in this thread. Do not respond to other posts, or your posts will be moderated and you may be warned. You are allowed to say whatever you like in relation to your vote at the bottom of your post, but please do not look to begin a discussion. Keep those comments to the PS! CAP chatroom or the CAP Discord channel.

Asking for votes for your submission or for the submissions of others is not allowed. Anyone found to have done so risks punishment at the moderation team's discretion. If you find that someone has broken this rule, please contact the CAP moderation team with your evidence and no one else. Mini-moderation of this rule is also considered a serious offense and can be punished.

Voting for the ones that have low speed. Also my name is not spelled correctly.

mod edit: fixed your name in the OP and people's votes

So I approached this with two factors in mind: 1, how would these stats fare in the CAP LC meta and 2, how well does Voodoll emulate its evolution with this in mind, and jas accomplishes this perfectly. First of all, jas's set hits the 17 Speed benchmark, which lets it Speed tie with what would probably be its biggest check, Mienfoo, and it can outspeed Pawniard and nearly all viable Fairy-types. This and its high Special Attack let it fulfill its role as a Special (or even mixed) Attacker. It also has a fair amount of bulk letting it function as a decent support too. I completely disagree with giving Voodoll low Speed, as it makes it essentially worthless with Mienfoo and Timburr and Croagunk running around. In my opinion Voodoll's main problem should be that it struggles a lot with Fighting-types, while its main upsides should be that it can function as a powerful special attacker and (like its evolution) have good offensive synergy with many Pokemon (i.e. Nasty Plot Vullaby, Breezi, Ponyta, etc.) and making it only for bulk defeats this purpose.

In the case of MaximusGameralso accomplishes this as well, but I'm not a huge fan of letting this always outspeed Mienfoo and Cottonee. However, the extra HP and Special Defense can help Voodoll out a lot. Idk this mostly depended on how good I wanted Voodoll to be. Anyway I just like both of these spreads :)

I'm partial to the slower spreads. I don't think this mon should be naturally outpacing Mienfoo.

Voodoll is really not that different, so I prefer ones that are just toning down Voodoom, not completely changing stats around.
