SmashCAP 2: Stat Distribution Poll

[Circa]

So the latest submissions thread has been closed and it's time for another vote! Each submission and its supporting text is below. Read them each and choose based on what you believe will work best for a Grass/Ghost.

Riddle

HP - 80
Atk - 55
Def - 120
SpA - 70
SpD - 120
Spe - 60

HP has to be just average because the defenses are so high. Atk is very low because this thing gets terrible physical STABs and is supposed to be weak. Defense and Special Defense are high for a sort of bronzong effect but more so. Special attack is low but better than Attack because of Shadow Ball/Leaf Storm and so it can like dent swampert or something. Speed is 1 point below tyranitars so it can't WoW it before it crunches/pursuits (hey we need some kind of counter).

UltiMario

HP: 65
Atk: 80
Def: 230
SpA: 10
SpD: 70
Spe: 65
Total: 520

So far, this thing is SLIGHTLY less bulky then Blissey, being at 390 for defense totals, below Blissey's 400.

HP Maxes out at 334, and defense at 616. These defenses won't be taking physical hits like Blissey takes special hits, and whilst it won't be taking special hits quite as good either because Blissey's gargantuan HP balances out all its physicaly defensive problems, whilst these lower, yet more balanced HP and Special Defense stats, won't be doing much the same, but it'll still be able to survive a few good special hits.

Any bulkier and it'll break the metagame, any less bulky, and its terribad typing (at least compared to bronzong and the like) might make it overlookable.

Since this thing is a PHYISICAL Blissey, I know that this thing's special attack will be in the toilet, as Blissey's Physical attack is.

Leafy

HP- 100
Atk- 40
Def- 64
Sp. Atk- 105
Sp. Def- 70
Spe- 131

BST: 510

This is pretty basic. With 131 Speed, this thing is capable of outspeeding everything in the OU tier not named Ninjask (Who would just mow through it with X-Scissor anyways), which makes it a pretty amazing lead. With 252 HP EVs, this thing gets a 101 HP Substitute, which is all around sexy, and means that it has more choices than JUST being a lead. It doesn't really mean that much, since Blissey can't touch him with Seismic Toss anyways.

This thing's goal is pretty much to start spreading status, set up a sub, and attack. This thing is gonna suffer of 4-moveslot syndrome so badly.

Both Ghosts and Grass Pokemon generally have a decent/high SpA, so I decided to give it a 105, to give it some power as well.

One could consider this broken, but Priority will beast this thing pretty hard, thanks to it's lackluster Defenses.

Tery

HP - 102
Atk - 50
Def - 120
Sp Atk -93
Sp Def - 130
Spd - 65

102 / 120 / 130 defenses are great. The numerous common weaknesses SmashCAP 2 carries are remedies by its bulk. Attack was basically ignored, while Sp Atk was placed at a mediocre average amount of 93. Nasty Plot would give it something to work with offensively. This thing is going to have poor Speed, however. It's enough to outpace Tyranitar though.

IC3R

HP -- 121
Attack -- 55
Defense -- 127
Sp. Attack -- 90
Sp. Defense -- 103
Speed -- 64

Hits 353 BSR -- Rank 7: Excellent

Based concept on defense

Writer

HP: 150
Attack: 110
Defense: 75
Special Attack: 90
Special Defense: 65
Speed: 10
Total: 500

I literally just threw this together. Based on a dead tree (but can be used for other things as well). Huge HP because it was a tree, and they live for mukking ever. And anyone who wants to dispute about Ghosts having high HP, meet Drifblim. Respectable Attack because trees are awesome and could hit like a truck of they were alive (lol). But it's dead, so it has arthritis and **** and it can't hit as hard. Still hard, though. The Defense and Special Defense are because trees are hard as rocks and ****. They get chopped up by chainsaws and burned by wildfires though, so it can't be TOO good. Decent Special Attack because old, dead trees would be wise. Some could end up with Alzheimer's and have their wisdom ruined, but meh. Mukking abysmal Speed because it's a **** tree. It's not supposed to be fast.

This thing basically makes full use of both abilities. Tanks like a mother****er (or so I'd guess; I don't know what it can live through with its defenses) and is so slow that it couldn't even win a tortoise race (it does win the turtle race though). Immunity and Shield Dust respectively, as you can see.

Choose wisely.

You should probably post your quote on the concept, since it does relate. We didn't know where we wanted to go with Grass / Ghost so we had more options in making a stat spread

Nevermind.

I probably should've redone my support post before I set this up. Wayyy too much joking involved in mine to be taken seriously (despite the fact that it is a serious submission). Probably should've added the extra 30-40 points to whatever I was going to add it to as well, but meh. It's good.

I have no ideas on what to vote for. I still like mine for whatever reason, but I don't know. I like Leafy's too because it's different. And the rest just look rather...similar to me. I don't know. >.<

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Right now I'd either vote for your submission or Leafy's. I really like IC3R's and Riddle's too.

Before I forget: Poll closes tomorrow (2/16) at 3:00 PM Eastern time
I'll be away during then, but we should have a winner and prove the discussions in the art submissions thread. The name submissions thread will be posted on Thursday.

-Terywj

 

[IC3R]

Can we vote for ourselves? o0

*checks results* Yup.

*votes for self*

Tery and Leafy were really close >.<

 

[Terywj [태리]]

IC3R's submission is a better represtation of mine.

Edit: Therefore I'm voting for his.

-Terywj

 

[Moozle]

I did Riddle's because I think IC3R's was a bit TOO good. Still, I looove defensive pokemanz Also, Leafy's was a really cool spread.

 

[Wave⁂]

Leafy4prez

CMONNNNN

 

[Riddle]

Wow this pokemon is going to have 121/127/103 defenses base 90 special attack and be able to outspeed tyranitar. Look the **** out.

 

[UltiMario]

Reminds me of Cresselia.

 

[Circa]

It'll be scarier than Cresselia though, because it'll have a support pool that makes Cresselia cry and a freaking Poison immunity.

I'm already smelling a Sleep Powder/CM set of some sort. Ohhhh boy this'll be big.

 

[xLeafybug =D]

I voted for Terywj's. I don't really care about the stats all that much.

 

[Circa]

I don't know if you guys are going to understand exactly what I'm saying here, but...

IC3R, if this Pokemon takes existence in a server ever I advise you to steer clear of all TVs, toasters, ovens, toaster ovens, washing machines, fans, refrigerators, and lawn mowers.

Otherwise you will likely die.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

I don't but nonetheless IC3R's submission wins.

-Terywj

 

[IC3R]

I like how I just made Rotom less awesome.

I'll start working on the moveset. It probably won't get Calm Mind, but it will get Amnesia and Growth...

We'll see...

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Nononono IC3R...after this is figuring out the art, then name, then begin counters discussion...

We've still got a while to go before movepooling.

-Terywj

 

[IC3R]

Just preparing

It's easy to make tweaks to it after all the discussion; I just want to have it ready when we get through all that.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Ahh. Well then you'll have a prepared submission then.

-Terywj

 

[KrazyGlue]

Voted for Writer's. I like the stat distribution; it looks like it could be a really technical and solid pokemon.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Did you just vote now...KrazyGlue the poll was already over..

Spire, could you lock + move this please?

-Terywj

 

[Wave⁂]

the poll was already over.

Apparently not.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

*Sigh* I can't lock things when I need to..

-Terywj

 

[KrazyGlue]

Haha wow. Didn't affect the result anyway.

 

[IC3R]

Ruined my percentage lead

 

[xLeafybug =D]

They really should have a feature where you're able to lock your own threads.

 

[KrazyGlue]

Yeah I never understood why you can't do that.

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Only Mods can do that..

SPIRE!
