Me & a group of others are starting a Pokemon Showdown custom what if sets the rules are relatively simple.
-The Rules For Posting-
-Please Put [PSWI] Besides the pokemon name in the title so we know that this is Showdown.
-Please Post sets that make SENSE! Nothing that makea no sense like Ferrothorn w Flash Fire
-The Pokemon can have a altered ability and or a move but it has to make SENSE!
-Please Describe the reason for choosing the ability and or the move such as using the Pokedex Entries, Appearances, Alternate Forms, Or Stats
-Explain in at least 2 sentences what effect this will have on the metagame. Will the pokemon be placed in a higher tier, Will ot ne able to stand up to the pokenons weakness will he a better set up sweeper or a bulky tank.
-Anyone who posts a set and someone uses it please use their name such as saying DdogTheKing made this set and say this is for Showdown What Ifs A Project we started. You may post this link here explaining the situation.
-The Battles will be any tier with 4 Pokes, and 2 Altered Pokes with abilities and or moves.
Tiers
Ubers
OU (OverUsed)
UU (Underused)
RU (RarelyUsed)
NU (Neverused)
LC (Little Cup)
-Wonder Guard on anything is automatically banned.
Here is a Example of how it should be posted.
Milotic (F) @ Leftovers [PSWI]
Original Traits: Marvel Scale, Cute Charm (DW)
Altered Trait: Multiscale (What If?)
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Scald
- Recover
- Toxic
- Icy Wind
Then explain how you chose the ability or the new move.
"Its lovely scales are described as rainbow colored. They change color depending on the viewing angle. " Pokemon Platinum Pokedex Entry.
If anything in my opinion Milotic will be more of the used UUs. Or head up to OU with that extra 50% bulk you probably can not OHKO and a neutral stage of anything. You have a better shot at burning things with Scald and lowering some Speed with Icy Wind.
Want to join the project? Simply post it here. And Upload a Showdown battle and link me to it via YouTube or post it or PM it.
-Maybe I would make a tier listing of all the pokemon and maybe some might just be upgraded. I will need help with this however.
-More Examples.
