CAP 30 So Far

-----

This is a ranked pairs poll. The order of your preferences DOES matter. You may rank as many or as few options as you like, but we encourage you to rank as many options as possible. A typical ballot might look like the following:
Most Preferred
Second Most Preferred
Third Most Preferred


Any comments would go below the votes in non-bold text.
All ballots will be revealed at the end of the poll and votes will be counted via automated scripts. If you do not compose a legal ballot, your post will be subject to moderation.
  • Do NOT bold anything other than the options you are voting for.
  • Do NOT put any formatting other than bold in your post.
  • Only one option per line.
  • Spellings must match EXACTLY the options listed below.
  • Capitalization and spaces are ignored by the counting scripts, but you probably should not depend on it.
Asking for votes for your submission or for the submissions of others is not allowed. Anyone found to have done so risks punishment at the moderation team's discretion. If you find that someone has broken this rule, please contact the CAP moderation team with your evidence and no one else. Mini-moderation of this rule is also considered a serious offense and can be punished.

The voting options are:

Pipotchi
Venomicon, the Grimoire Pokémon

Sword: All attempts to destroy it failed, so it was tarred and locked away under an ancient library.

Shield: After being lost for eons, a forbidden spellbook transformed into Venomicon. It is said to contain the soul of its evil author.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: Incensed by wicked ink, it transforms into something more representative of its vengeful nature. It rampages until the inkwell is empty.

Shield: Drawing from a magical inkwell, it can reinforce paper to cut through even steel. It terrorizes those it believes tried to banish it.
StephXPM
Venomicon, the Grimoire Pokémon

Sword: It was born from books sealed away in catacombs deep below, where the air grew foul over time. It spews a peculiar ink that stains anything it touches.

Shield: The odd glyphs within its pages pulse as if they were veins. They don’t seem to mean anything, though.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: It marks foes with a thousand cuts from its razor-sharp pages. Any ink that gets into these wounds becomes permanently burned in.

Shield: Possessed by an arcane inkwell, It frantically etches strange symbols on to anything it sees. It can’t stop until its ink supply depletes.
kjnjkmjk1
Venomicon, the Nib Pokémon

Sword: It covers each book it uses with a goopy, poisonous ink. The ink hardens with repeated blows, protecting both the book and the Pokémon from harm.

Shield: Venomicon will carefully study everything in its book before moving to a new one. It seems to be seeking a long-lost spell.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: The ink from the vial mixing with Venomicon's natural ink causes a strange reaction. The resulting magic sharpens the pages of its book to a razor edge.

Shield: The vial impedes its ability to cast spells, causing it to wildly fly around in confusion. A skilled trainer can teach it to control itself, though.
Explosion Badger
Venomicon, the Spellbook Pokémon

Sword: By writing on itself with poisonous ink, it can conjure a wide variety of attacks. Strangely, its ink cannot produce the same effect on normal parchment.

Shield: A powerful enchantment protects it, allowing it to take multiple blows. Researchers believe this is why it has survived for over 500 years.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: An excess of strange ink has given Venomicon magically enhanced vision, but has also broken its spine, forcing it to fold itself up until it can fix it.

Shield: Its mind is linked to the writing on it. It's believed that the ink flooding its pages temporarily warps its memory, causing it to fly into a mindless rage.
thundergoos
Venomicon, the Cursed Tome Pokémon

Sword: A living relic from a dark, bygone era, this Pokémon is said to have been created by a vengeful sorcerer.

Shield: Each solstice and equinox, this Pokémon appears during the night at an ancient library deep within the Crown Tundra. Its cries are eerily human.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: After plunging its pen-like head into a forbidden inkwell, it darts about the skies in a berserk rage. When not flying, it shudders violently.

Shield: Venomicon’s vision has been enhanced beyond the material plane, but its ink distorts everything into moving targets. If it spots you, there is no escape.
Bice
Venomicon, the Lost Novel Pokémon

Sword: It's said to have been born from an unfinished epic after noxious ink was spilled on it. It seeks out more of this ink to finish the story itself.

Shield: The writings on its pages are seemingly nonsensical hieroglyphs. Anyone who peeks at them will have a flurry of ink-stained pages shot in their face.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: It sought out the Vile Vial and its ink to finish writing its story. However, the vial twisted its mind, causing it to become lost in its own writing.

Shield: Whatever the ink did to Venomicon's mind, it caused it to go on a violent rampage. It's theorized that the vial made it see others as villains in its story.
Da Pizza Man
Venomicon, the Knowledge Pokémon

Sword: Venomicon’s pages contain hundreds of recipes for how to make poisons using ordinary objects. For this reason, Venomicon is banned from most bookstores.

Shield: The pages of Venomicon hold profound knowledge. Ancient civilizations were very strict on who could read the secrets written within Venomicon.

Venomicon-Epilogue

Sword
: The Vile Vial has given Venomicon a sudden urge to transcribe its knowledge. Many famous works of literature have been written by Venomicon in this form.

Shield: Venomicon’s ability to retain this form relies on the ink contained in the Vile Vial. When the ink runs out, Venomicon reverts back to its Prologue form.
