  1. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    I hate to be "that guy" who isn't letting something go, but seeing as we're in the last couple days for this thread, I just wanted to ask something that's been on my mind regarding some of these recent concepts. Basically, if a concept is good, but for whatever reason it's not the right time to...

  2. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    The reason defensive boosting moves are rarely used is because they're way too slow to use on most walls. A good defensive pokemon is able to switch into big hits at a whim, potentially from already boosted attackers, and something that relies on boosting moves to wall would be totally unable to...

  3. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    So, you guys have definitely convinced me that the concept would require a good deal of finesse to get right, and knowing that, should probably wait until after we have a Mega CAP under our belt so we can do it justice. Maybe even by CAP 22, if we're not Mega-fatigued by that point. That said, I...

  4. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    Sorry, I should have clarified, my concept was The Patient Mega, not The Charizard Gambit. I agree, creating a pokemon with two different Mega forms is definitely not the place to start with our first mega project, but I think my concept is much more manageable.

  5. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    I'd just like to know, why do you feel that my concept (The Patient Mega) would be any less forgiving than other Mega projects? The way I see it in my head, all you would need is two forms with slightly different playstyles that are both relatively similar in terms of overall power, and as long...

  6. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    Reposting this concept now that Mega-CAP concepts are a go, with some slight modifications to better conform to Doug's guidelines. Name: The Patient Mega General Description: A pokemon that can Mega Evolve, but has strong reasons not to do so until the time is right. Justification: Even...

  7. CaP 20 Pre-Evo - Part 3 - Art Submissions

    Quanyalis, that first stage's color scheme is looking a little.... familiar. You're not still sore, are you? :P Beyond that, I love the thematic progression of both of them, but I think the second stage could be differentiated a tad more, as at this point, it's more or less Navi minus oars and...

  9. CaP 20 Pre-Evo - Part 2 - Ability Discussion

    Looks perfect to me, wouldn't expect anything else. And honestly, it's so far looked like we're 100% in agreement for the second prevo, so I don't see any need for that on the slate. And I think that all three of the above abilities feel better to me than Thick Fat/Weak Armor.

  10. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    Given that DougJustDoug has just given the Mega Cap an OK, would it be alright for me to update and repost my Patient Mega concept? I'd like to rework it to better conform to the standards that Doug emphasized, and it should be more visible now that it's not illegal.

  12. CAP 21 - Part 1 - Concept Submissions

    I'm not quite sure why you feel that the fact that other Pokemon already fit this description is a reason not to make a CAP on it. The point of the project is not always to carve out new territory, but rather just to learn more about the metagame, and I think this kind of submission would...

  13. CaP 20 Pre-Evo - Part 2 - Ability Discussion

    My vote would also go for Swift Swim replacing Light Metal for the first prevo, followed by all the same. I don't really see too many other ways to go besides what's already been said, so there's not much else left to really say here, I think.

  18. CaP 20 Prevos - Part 1 - Typing Discussion

    If we really, really want to add a third typing to the evolution chain, Flying is the ONLY one I can imagine working, mostly because of the movepool. However, I would have to see a really compelling concept before I voted for it to understand why it would lose its wing/sails as it grows in...

  19. CaP 20 Prevos - Part 1 - Typing Discussion

    My preference is definitely for both stages to be Mono Water, but I can certainly see a secondary steel type for the second stage (not the first, though.) Beyond that, I personally can't see any types other than Water and Steel to be thrown into the mix. Rock doesn't make sense to me, and while...

  20. Ask a Simple Question, Get a Simple Answer (CAP V. 3.0 READ THE OP!)

    Are we allowed to submit CAP concepts involving mega evolution? I have an idea for a concept, but I vaguely remember reading that this was disallowed at some point in the past. However, after looking through some pages, I can't seem to find that rule anywhere anymore, so I'm wondering if it was...
