Remember Crazy Gen 1? Persian and its 99.6% crit chance Slash? Hyper Beam's broken machanics? No hold items, EVs, or abilities?
Well, if you're not satisfied with playing the meta with the original 151 mons, this thread is your place! Here, Pokemon from later generations are fitted into a Gen 1 form, even though that Gen 1 form doesn't exist! Rules: -Special Attack and Special Defense are merged into the SPC stat: The LOWER of the two stats becomes the SPC. There are two exceptions to this rule: 1. The higher of the two stats it the Pokemon's highest Base Stat (Cryonogal, Volcarona) 2. There is a strong indication that the SPC stat should be the higher (try to show your rationale for this, such as Blissey because Chansey) -Gen 1 mons keep their stats. -The mons only get moves from Gen 1. However, since there are TMs in Gen 1 not present in future Generations, it will be allowed to add a move because of a very strong rationale (Volcarona gets Mega Drain because it gets Giga Drain in Gen 5.) -ALL Gen 1 mechanics stay. -Smeargle gets every move that existed Gen 1. -Unown, Pure Dark, and Pure Steels are excluded. -Half Dark and Half Steel mons lose their Dark or Steel typing (mono-Rock Tyranitar, mono-Fire Heatran) Here, we will talk about what would have happened had we had Regirock or Deoxys in Gen 1. Please follow the rules. I will begin: Slaking: HP: 150 ATK: 160 DEF: 100 SPC: 65 SPE: 100 -Slash -Hyper Beam/Body Slam -Earthquake -Blizzard The Normal/Ground combo is unresisted in Gen 1. Slash gets that 99.6% Crit chance. Slaking no longer has Truant. Say hello to Tauros 2.0. Regice: HP: 80 ATK: 50 DEF: 100 SPC: 200 SPE: 50 -Amnesia -Blizzard -Thunder -Rest Say hello to Slowbro 2.0. Same DEF, twice the SPC, with Amnesia. After an Amnesia, not much stands in its way. BoltBeam is also unresisted Gen 1. Deoxys-D HP: 50 ATK: 70 DEF: 160 SPC: 160 SPE: 90 -Amnesia -Psychic -Recover -Thunder Wave/Blizzard If Regice is Slowbro 2.0, this is Slowbro 3.0. With an amazing Defense and Special, as well as Amnesia and Recover, this guy can wreck. Oh yeah, the Speed's not bad either. Also, Wrap Deoxys-S can own teams like this: Deoxys-S used Wrap! The foe was trapped by Wrap! ... The foe was freed from Wrap! Deoxys-S used Wrap! Continue ad infinitum. So, what do you guys think about the retro-fitted Gen 1 metagame? -------------------- My Shinies will guide you to my party. Come to Smogon. (We'll teach you to battle.)
