Oh, I forgot to mention yesterday but due to the release of Crown Tundra, the slate will be postponed until next Thursday! Just so that we can have a look at these new goodies first...

Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

I think they need roost lol
I would do a slate for Regieleki and Regidrago personally
Yung Dramps
awesome gaming
Upon further inflection I wanna do the Regis tbh. I think some changes are in order to keep them more consistent with their CFM bros, plus they are very cool and could be interesting to modify

Ok so we figured out the slate here we go
Relicanth (PU)
Target BST: 485-505
Target Tier: PU or NU
Regieleki (New)
Target BST: 600
Target Tier: RU-OU
Regidrago (New)
Target BST: 600
Target Tier: RU-OU
After a poll on our Discord server we've decided the two new Regis would be the first Crown Tundra Pokemon we would tackle. It may seem premature to do them this early on but people have been voicing issue with how these Pokemon are design, notably their extremely one-dimensional movepools and certain other inconsistencies with the original 3 Regis. As such they need more heavy-duty modification than the birds and should receive that attention first. Doing just 2 Pokemon would be kinda barren though so we've decided to toss in Relicanth as it ties back into the whole Regi theme seeing as how it was vital for the original Regi puzzle in RSE as well as being another notoriously weak Pokemon we have yet
to touch.

Stats (changes highlighted in bold): 100 / 110 (+20) / 130 / 45 / 65 / 55 (505 BST)
Abilities (changes highlighted in bold): Unaware, Rock Head, Primordial Sea, if not reasonable then just keep Sturdy
Moves: +Flip Turn, Slam
How this makes it more interesting:
Not really much you can do with this fishy tbh. All that's doable is buffing up what it can do. Unaware and Primordial Sea are meta references to its age and unchanging nature, the latter could be a funny pick but I understand if it's considered too excessive for a normal Pokemon.
Pokémon: Regieleki

Moves: +Discharge, Earthquake, Focus Blast, Flash Cannon, Superpower, Zing Zap
Tweaks to existing moves/abilities:
Thunder Cage: 90 BP, 100% accurate
How this makes it more interesting:
Far less one-dimensional than the vanilla version now that it has actual coverage and abilities that facilitate the boosted SpA. Berserk in particular is meant to reference this:
"This Pokémon is a cluster of electrical energy. It's said that removing the rings on Regieleki's body will unleash the Pokémon's latent power." -Sword dex entry
The stat changes are designed to give it the same points as CFM OG Regis but re-arranged.

Moves: +Earthquake, Fire Blast, Flamethrower, Ice Fang, Poison Fang, Superpower
Tweaks to existing moves/abilities:
Dragon Energy: Magic
How this makes it more interesting:
Similar MO to Regieleki where the changes are in the name of diversifying what it can do. Mold Breaker is a Dragon staple in CFM and Intimidate synergizes somewhat with Dragon Energy by letting it take less damage so that move can apply its full effect.

At a request from the discord I will leave my Regidrago sub here!
Tier goal: UU
Stats : 200 / 125 (+25) / 45 (-5) / 100 / 50 / 80 (600 BST)
Abilities : Strong Jaw, Dragon's Maw
Moves: +Ice Fang, Poison Fang, Hyper Fang, Stomping Tantrum, Dragon Hammer, Vice Grip, Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, Ice Beam, Flash Cannon
Move Changes: Dragon Energy: 100 BP, 10 PP; Heals 25% of the user's HP after dealing damage
Reasoning: Stat changes are to line up with the other CFM Regis. I wanted to lean into the "dragon head" motif a lot more, hence Strong Jaw and new biting moves (it also learns Crunch and the other 2 elemental fangs naturally). Stomping Tantrum was given to increase physical coverage that little bit more (and to help deal with a fairy switchin on Hyper Fang). Dragon Hammer was to increase damage for physical Dragon's Maw sets, and Vice Grip is for flavor purposes. Special moves were added due to Regidrago being made of "crystallized energy", which all the moves minus Flamethrower have been stated to be (Flamethrower because most all Dragons get access to it). Dragon Energy's change was to make it more viable and a source of semi-recovery at the same time, while keeping in like with it being an attack that uses Regidrago's life force to attack with

(works similarly to Body Press with Def, but consider this only if programmable, I've seen how BP is coded and they've made it very very hard-coded lol)
How this makes it more interesting: Well, it has much more raw power and I added a bit of coverage that can help facing various Pokémon.

How this makes it more interesting: Now its signature move, instead of losing power with time, just reduces its time in the battle lol
It can work as a wallbreaker, now that it has more coverage, and boy, why don't these Regis learn Superpower? It was such a signature move of them, so I had to put that back.

Rejecting Regieleki for the same reason I vetoed ChoiceScarfed's initial submission: 150/150 special offense with unnerfed Transistor and actual coverage is just too much IMO. That's vanilla Deo-N special offense but with an actually useful ability and partially STAB BoltBeam as well as Volt Switch for pivoting.

How this makes it more interesting: Well, I based the stats of both of them on Registeel's rather than the other two pre-existing golems, this way it is one-sided, but it has much more raw power and I also added a bit of coverage that can help facing various Pokémon.

Also unsure about your Regidrago. Once again 150 in an offense with the Dragon's Maw boost makes me nervous, although I don't think it's as immediately absurd as your Regieleki, this one I'd actually be open to appeals if you can provide calcs or whatever proving it has enough counterplay even after the new coverage you've given it.

Stats are the original ones now, I realized Registeel's stats are made only to be used on Registeel. I removed Aurora Beam, but added some setup moves to both of them.
Pokémon: Relicanth
Tier Goal: NU
Typing: Water/Rock
Stats (changes highlighted in bold): 100 / 105 (+15) / 130 / 45 / 65 / 60 (+5) (505 BST)
Abilities (changes highlighted in bold): Swift Swim / Rock Head / Sturdy*
Tweaks to existing moves/abilities: Sturdy, only when on Relicanth, adds a special effect called Pressurized where it ignores the ability Pressure and certain other moves.
Moves: +Aqua Jet, Iron Head, Life Dew, Flip Turn
How this makes it more interesting:
Relicanth is already perfect, at least in the world of Pokemon (having not evolved in 100 million years or anything), so I didn't really take drastic changes here, beyond tweaking Sturdy to add Pressurized, which makes sense flavor-wise since you only find it in deep areas. Increased Attack and Speed let it be a better offensive mon, whether it be Band or Rain Dance, along with a coverage move in Iron Head, priority in Aqua Jet, and a strong utility option in Flip Turn. Defensive sets love Pressurized, ensuring it's never PP stalled and giving it an immunity to many moves, making it harder to abuse. Life Dew gives it a semi-reliable form of recovery, and of course Flip Turn is cool.
Moves that are ignored by Pressurized:
All moves involving weight (Heavy Slam, Heat Crash, Grass Knot, Low Kick)
Body Slam
Stomp
Body Press
Steel Roller
Dragon Hammer
Bind/Wrap (takes initial damage, but is unaffected by trapping damage; still trapped)
Constrict
Possibly more

Nice sub! Unfortunately we don't allow custom elements, you could however take a fitting pre-existing ability and have it apply the Pressurized effect exclusively when used by Relicanth. This is for teambuilding convenience

My sub has been changed to reflect this. Now it gets Sturdy, like it's supposed to, but the Pressurized effect is added onto it.
sorry if unnessecary post, but the reason dramps is nicer than hema is due to this being your first time in cfm from what i know. you have been in mfa for at least 5-8 slates, and it is no surprise that hematite is growing tired of you. meanwhile, you just posted here, meaning that u dont have much experience here, but when u stay in cfm for as much time as you have stayed in mfa yung dramps will eventually grow tired of your balancing issues. hematite is really nice, i would say even the nicest person i have met here, and you need to be REALLY infuriating to admit that he isnt being nice to you. i have seen your subs in the gen x pet mod too, and there your subs were as unbalanced as all the other ones you did. at this point, its really hard to believe you arent either a troll or an 8 yr old
That was supposed to be a joke, not an insult.

How this makes it more interesting: Clear Body is consistency with the other Regis, and its arm things resemble a dragon head, so that’s why it gets Strong Jaw and some biting moves. Ofc it still keeps Dragon’s Maw for the same reason. Dragon Energy drawing from life force ties into why it changes from a Water Spout clone to a Double-Edge clone.

Let me know if there are any balance issues that I should account for.

I’m not sure how I missed that.
Hello, boys and girls! Sorry for Cancer Fairy's absence, had a busy weekend then got sucked into the election madness (I'm not even American, lol)...
Anyway, the time has come to cast your votes on this week's slate! As with last time, please pick you three favourite submissions and rank them in order! And remember, you can vote for yourself but only as your second or third preference!
I'm a little sick of democracy, but nonetheless let voting begin! We'll carry on until Monday (any votes cast afterwards are ILLEGAL and FRAUDULENT).
