Breeding Variants V3
Have you ever seen those cool fanart posts where someone makes drawings of a Pokemon and what they would look like if their offspring took traits from their breeding partner? This Pet Mod will take this concept and put it into a playable form. It'll work something like this:
Submission Rules
You would start with a "base" Pokemon that will take traits from a chosen breeding partner, or "donor", from the same egg group (Baby Pokemon take on the egg group of their parent(s).
Let's use these two Pokémon as an example. As the base, Eelektross would take the following traits from Chandelure:
- A type to replace one of his current ones
- 5 moves from Chandelure’s movepool
- One of Chandelure’s abilities
- Average out one of Chandelure’s base stats with his corresponding stat, like this: (95 + 145) / 2
- Some sort of fitting suffix to denote the newly made alternate form
- A dex entry
In the end, it'll look something like this:
Name: Eelektross-Luminous (Eelek + Chandelure)
Egg Group: Amorphous
Stats: 85 / 115 / 80 / 125 / 80 / 50 (535 BST)
Type:
New Moves: Will-O-Wisp, Fire Blast, Flamethrower, Energy Ball, Calm Mind
Abilities: Levitate / Flash Fire
Dex Entry: This is just an example, and I don’t really feel creative, so just be sure to make something cool and concise for your sub.
Other submission rules include avoiding the use of previously used bases AND donors, as well as a max of 5 submissions at once. Keep your subs balanced in mind for OU's power level. Unlike Fusion Evolution this'll be a relatively small expansion on the OU meta rather than a several-hundred-mon behemoth that's ridiculously difficult to keep track of, probably 20-40 new mons or so with 4-5 winners per slate. In addition, don't mix mons that can only be the same gender as each other (eg no gallade + another mon in its egg group that's male only)
Anyways, have a submission template:
Banlist
While it's impossible to have a banlist expanded upon the current OU one, all Pokemon tiered higher than RUBL + Ditto are banned as bases.
Ditto gives everything Impostor and the UU+ ban is to prevent subs from devolving into "make an already good Pokemon even better". As for donors, Ditto is also banned for the same reason it's banned as a base, and Smeargle is banned because even with its crappy stats, Sketch along with access to the entire Field egg group would get out of hand real quickly.
Format
V3 of this format will be based around Regional Dex OU with Dynamaxing banned, just like V2. Only Pokemon in the Galar Pokedex (including Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra Pokédex) + eligible Foreign Pokemon (i.e. the remaining Kanto starters and Alola starters) can be used as bases, but anything (including National Dex mons) can be used as a donor. For the sake of accelerated meta development, all of the aforementioned foreign Pokemon will be themselves legal albeit only with their Galar learnsets.
