Slate 3 Part 4C: Stats​
You will have 4 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 this Pokemon is meant to be a significant check to at least one target, the stats should probably help it take a couple hits from said target.
  • Be careful not to go overboard with the stats. Remember that the goal is for the CAP to be somewhere in the range of 9th-20th in power on a theoretical viability rankings.
  • Similarly, be careful not to directly outclass anything else relevant in OU.
  • As this is based on being a Doduo evolution, try to keep the stat total reasonable for a 2-stage evolution line - Dodrio's BST makes a good comparison point. Similarly, any stats that are lower than the pre-evolved form should have an explanation for how they further the concept; the only cases of evolutions losing stats are in the early-game bug lines (where some points get shifted around in the middle and final stages) and Poliwhirl -> Poliwrath losing 20 Speed.

90/110/84/60/56 BST: 400/460

A slow bulky approach to the concept, the same attack as dodrio alongside eq and drill peck make it hit several things for SE damage while still not being able to 2HO important neutral targets like the normals. 90 hp 84 defense help it survive 3 hits from rhydon's slam/rock slide, which this spread is meant to counter. It retains dodrio's 60 special and drops to most ice/water moves. Note: this thing doesn't 1v1 zapdos unless it gets rock slide, and even then it's at a disadvantage cause it's using an inaccurate move and zapdos has a higher crit rate.

As said on Discord I wanted to leave this open a bit longer and get at least one more sub, but since we didn't I will add one just so we can have something to vote about

HP: 75
ATK: 100
DEF: 100
SPC: 50
SPE: 85
Total: 410/460

As with the above, takes 3 Rock Slides from Rhydon and survives it, doesn't 1v1 Zapdos but Drill Peck is only a roll to 4HKO which makes it a decent pivot (or you can fish with Body Slam if desperate, or have a moderate chance to win if we give this Rock Slide). 100 Attack and no Normal STAB makes it less of a threat to paralyze things with Slam fishing but 100 Attack EQ is significantly stronger than 110 Attack Body Slam and notably this range still 2HKOes Eggy with Drill Peck consistently (and hits 47-55 on Rhydon with EQ). The main difference in the spreads is Speed; I think 85 Speed significantly helps this mon because instead of just outspeeding Egg it also outspeeds Pineguin and Corupcake, giving it actual things to do in most matches even if it doesnt hit a Rhydon (though it still isn't switching into Corupcake Fblast and certainly not into Pineguin's anything).
 
well, giving myself a medal and moving on:
Type: Ground/Flying
HP: 75
ATK: 100

SPE: 85

Slate 3 Part 5C: Competitive Learnset​
You will have 72 hours to submit the competitively useful moves for this Pokémon. This does not include useless moves that exist for flavor. Some guidelines:
  • As this Pokemon must evolve from Doduo, it must have every move in Doduo's learnset. Incompatibilities between moves in the evolution's moveset and Doduo's learnset should not exist as there is very little reason to add them. If you have a move that warrants special considerations when paired with a move that already exists in Doduo's learnset, message me and we can talk through it.
  • Keep in mind what moves are available by TM and HM in RBY; anything that isn’t will have to be gotten by level up or “event,” so try to make sure the moves you give it can be justified in some way, even if it’s a little bit of a stretch.
  • As before, keep the intended power level in mind here - around 9-20 on the VR.
  • A signature move can be added here, but must conform to RBY mechanics and effects and should not be the only thing this CAP has going for it.
  • The following are mandatory moves for all CAPs unless you can find a way to justify it not existing; these are obviously not all competitive moves, but just keep in mind which ones may be competitively relevant for your submission and make sure they're either on there or explained. Generally relevant moves are bolded:
    • Bide
    • Double Team
    • Double-Edge
    • Hyper Beam
    • Mimic
    • Rage
    • Rest
    • Substitute
    • Take Down
    • Toxic
 
Earthquake, Hyperbeam and Rock Slide. All as TMs. That's about it, idt there's any other non-flavor moves that would make sense to add.
 
With no other submissions, that's that, so:
Type: Ground/Flying
HP: 75
ATK: 100
DEF: 100
SPC: 50
SPE: 85
Movepool: Doduo's moves + Earthquake, Rock Slide, Hyper Beam

Slate 3 Part 6C: Name/Art​
You will have 72 hours to name the mon and (if you want) come up with art for it. The art can be either a concept or a picture/sprite. You can submit just a name, just art, or both if you want. If the winning submission is one that submits both, we will immediately move on. If the winning submission is just a name or just art, then we will have a second round for the part that's missing.
 
Meet Roaduo! It's a roadrunner :)

Its chunky feet are better suited for blocking oncoming attacks rather than for running.

And for fun, here's a cry:

I introduce you all to Dodrucken

After evolution, the three Dodrio heads shrunk and sprouted 5 big heads and also countless smaller heads. The biggest one in the middle is the Head of Defense, the leftmost one the Head of Agriculture, the rightmost one the Head of the Treasury, the left-middle one the Head of State and the right-middle the Head of International Affairs. The biggest heads act as a sort of governing system to the numerous tiny heads and are also the ones that do all the Pokémon battling. The tiny ones mostly pick ticks out of the hive mind’s feathers and eat them. They’re the lucky ones
 
well that came right as i was about to close this anyway, vote time, 48hrs
