Pet Mod [Gen 1] RBY CAP - Revived! [Sendoff Slate]

And the winner is - Broken Typing! Fittingly, the next thing we decide is... the typing.

Sendoff Slate Part 2: Typing​
Now it's time to determine the CAP's typing. Keep in mind the concept here and don't be afraid to send the wild ideas that weren't allowed for prior slates!

3 days to submit.
 
There are a lot of obvious ideas here that mostly involve Normal, Ghost, Ice, and Psychic, and there's some unique combos that would also be really strong like Ice/Electric having absolutely insane STAB moves, Freeze immunity, and resistance to two of the best and most common attacking types while only being weak to a few types. We already made 2 Ice types or I'd send Ice/Ghost, so instead I'm gonna do...

Normal/Bug

For anyone who ever played Burgundy Version, remember Plucks? That guy was broken as shit just from having Swords Dance + STAB Hbeam with some actual bulk (and then it also got a good coverage movepool). Here I'm thinking more of a "the only Bug to ever get a real Bug STAB move" idea combined with having the busted Normal-type moves and the benefit of bonus coverage that many Normal-types get (Plucks initially had Thunder/Ice Punches and Earthquake, as well as Focus Punch, which uh... was quite the move in that mod). We can also give it Swords Dance if we want, but there's a lot of room to play with this by giving it different levels of coverage or a signature move or SD/Agility or what have you.
 
Ghost/Flying

While it is admitedly much weaker in Ubers than in OU, Ghost Flying is still the biggest fuck you to all the physical attackers in the tier. With an immunity to Earthquake and Normal Type moves, Ghost/Flying is an effective blanket wall for the likes of Mew, Snorlax and Tauros, allowing it to perfectly synergize with Mewtwo and Chansey to take on the physical attackers that can try to break through them.

Just want to note on this that the vast majority of OU Tauros have Blizzard which, well… is a 120 BP super effective move. This would be very stat-dependent to work, not that it’s a bad type idea. If anything I’d expect it’s better in Ubers where it would force Mew to run Rock Slide or special coverage and Tauros to not drop Blizzard for Leer or Stomp, which it uses to help beat the Mews, as compared to OU where there’s still plenty of BoltBeam users to hit it AND it doesn’t wall most Tauros
 
Rock/Flying

Keeping the Burgundy references going Aerodactyl was BROKEN in OU before it got nerfed. Rock/Flying is also a super cool defensive typing in Ubers since its "we have skarmory at home" where u wall pure physical attackers that rely on normal/ground coverage. This mon should improve upon Aero's niche in the tier, having its traits while also being a good pokemon (and actually having stab lol)
 
Hello I've been sick but vote time, 48 hours, no self voting as first vote:
Ice/Ghost
Normal/Bug
Ghost/Flying
Rock/Flying
 
The winner is Ice/Ghost!

Sendoff Slate Part 3: Stats​
You will have 3 days to submit a stat spread for this Pokemon. Please give an HP, Attack, Defense, Special, and Speed stat and specify which is which. Some guidelines:
  • Keep the concept in mind! Since the concept is Broken Typing, it should have stats that support it in using its types offensively and/or defensively.
  • Go wild with the stats, this is an Uber CAP. That said, it should probably not have Mewtwo BST, lol.
 
Here's mine - I looked at Gengar and Lapras to consider attacks this could potentially get, as both get Thunderbolt and Psychic despite not being Electric- or Psychic-type, not that I think this has to get those moves. I think Ghost-types having Psychic is pretty easy to justify, at least. I tried to figure out some non-minmaxed numbers instead of giving it 700 BST. I also wanted a design weakness that the typing helps to fix - its physical bulk would be similar to Starmie if not for its immunity to Normal (and a little bit of Fighting - Marble Fist would pick it off from 40% if it wasn't a Ghost), except that this CAP at least has a physical weakness in Rock Slide. Rock Slide's not a great move, but at least it has users - Rhydon, Snorlax, and Mew. Ice/Ghost has only one special weakness, Fire Blast, so giving it huge Special serves a dual role of giving it a nuclear Blizzard and making Fire Blast survivable, but a 120 BP move is still going to hurt even when bulked out. BST is roughly comparable to Exeggutor (which has 455/580), Lapras (450/545), or Tentacruel (435/555). Overall, this thing is terrifying - strong offense from one of the best attacking types in the game, blocks Explosion and Hyper Beam without being anywhere near as frail as Gengar, and only 2 weaknesses.

idea for mon to be very offensive, with its defenses more carried by its typing rather than good defensive stats

105 speed outspeeds mew/zapper but slower than bull

maybe it can have a broken signature ghost move, balanced by the fact that it does 0 damage to half the tier

HP: 80
Atk: 134
Def: 65
Spc: 116
Spe: 105
BST: 500

Also 500 bst with same attack as dragonite for fun
