    The CAP Kitchen: Non-Competitive Discussion Goes Here

    The egg groups are chosen by movepool submitters (at least on recent CAPs – I admit I have no idea how it was done back when Fidgit was made). Most submitters try to pick something flavourful for the Pokémon in question, but convenience in egg move availability sometimes trumps that, which in...

    I think resetting the numbering for gen 5 was ultimately considered a mistake. They've always been listed with strictly increasing numbers on the CAP site, as well. The gen 5 CAPs have gone back to officially being 12 through 17, I believe, but people are used to the numbers they had before by now.

    Golurkyourself I had some reservations about it not looking much like a Fire-type, but looking at real Pokémon, Golurkyourself's fits in better with Fire-types than Magistrum's does with Water-types. They're both excellent designs, regardless.

    As far as I'm aware, Rebound only works on the moves that Magic Coat did in gen 4. So not Stealth Rock.

    Coding thread

    I wouldn't be so down on high school programming courses. It's true that after taking two of them I didn't at all feel like I "could program" but they were fun in a way that uni courses haven't been. (Woo, I made a Battleship game and put anime music on it!) And even just the basic experience...

    As far as I'm aware there isn't one, but you could try submitting it as a new Other Metagame. If you can drum up some interest you can probably get someone to implement it on a PS server.

    Thunderbolt Gengar is a red herring. The idea does, I suppose, make some degree of sense: if we pick Bulletproof, we need to take Thunderbolts, and if we can take Thunderbolts we don't need Bulletproof. I get it. The problem is that we can't take Thunderbolts, whether we "need" to or not. We are...

    I want to address the claims that Bulletproof will make CAP 18 too good outside of our core. That's just not a good argument. While we don't want to encourage its use in other places, it is nearly unheard of (outside the likes of weather teams) to see a Pokémon that can be legitimately called...

    Much as I'm loath to do so, I'll reluctantly have to support Bulletproof. This is by far the best way to actually beat the things we've decided to beat using the typing we have. While Bulletproof certainly doesn't automatically allow us to beat Aegislash, what it does do (combined with our Steel...
