this is for Animemer , he wanted to vote on some but busy
 
Time to reveal the first winners of GlaceMons, the foundation by which we will build our metagame on!

There's been a lot of ties for this slate so that means we have a little bit more things added than the usual; but thank you all for the good turnout so far! Here's to more in the future and hopefully making a good metagame out of this Pet Mod.

Voting Tally

WINNERS
Name: Worry Seed
Power: 80
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 15
Category: Physical
Type: Grass
Effect: The target's Ability becomes Insomnia.
Priority: 0
Flags: Protect, Mirror, Metronome
Potential Pokémon With This Move: current + all mons with seed bomb/leech seed/bullet seed
Justification: a kinda interesting thing i thought of where in aaa it was used to beat pheal and stuff so now you can use ferro to check gliscor and stuff
Click to expand...
Name: Recover / Roost / Slack Off / Soft-Boiled / Milk Drink / Shore Up / Lunar Blessing
PP: 10
Justification: i looove 16 pp recovery
Click to expand...
Name: Pebble Storm
Power: 70
Accuracy: 100
PP: 20
Category:
Physical.png

Type:
Rock.png


Effect: This move has +1 priority if Sandstorm if active.
Z-Move Power / Effect: 140 BP
Priority: 0
Flags (ex: Contact, Sound): Protect, Mirror
Potential Pokémon With This Move::diancie::garganacl::glimmora::iron boulder::terrakion::aerodactyl::archeops::avalugg-hisui::coalossal::gigalith::iron thorns::lycanroc::lycanroc-dusk::lycanroc-midnight::minior::regirock::rampardos::stakataka::stonjourner::golem::golem-alola::rhyperior::houndstone::sandslash::bombirdier::brambleghast::sandaconda::gliscor::cacturne::dugtrio::palossand::great tusk::donphan::hippowdon::probopass::steelix:(:excadrill:?)
Justification: Gen 8 Grassy Glide clone, but on a field condition that doesn't boost its damage and I'm not giving this to any good self-setters to click it with. Makes a very powerful revenge killing and cleaning tool if you're able to keep control of the weather, especially since it's still a fairly strong Rock-type move that will dent all other weather setters if they try to aggressively switch the weather, since they all happen to be weak to Rock. Also, Choice Band Gigalith.
Click to expand...
Name: Salve Strike
Power: 80
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 15 [24 Max]
Category:
Physical.png

Type:
Rock.png

Effect: If this move KOs the target: cures the user of its status.
Priority: 0
Flags: Contact, Protect, Mirror, Metronome
Potential Pokémon With This Move: :tapu-koko::tapu-bulu::tapu-fini::tapu-lele::altaria::rapidash-galar::fezandipiti::aromatisse:
Justification: Back in Joltemons I aimed at providing a more reliable Fairy Physical STAB, most notably given the crime of Tapu Bulu somehow not having access to one already. I didn't want to just rehash Enchanted Punch, the winning sub that accomplished that in Joltemons, so I thought to try something a bit different. I thought the status curing benefit could be an interesting twist, while not being too strong (given you still have KO with the move for its positive effect, making its burn-curing properties a bit harder to activate)
Click to expand...
Name: Protean
Effect: This Pokemon's type changes to match the type of the move it is about to use. This effect comes after all effects that change a move's type.
Permanent (Yes or No): No
Mold Breaker (Yes or No): No
Potential Pokémon With This Ability: current distribution does not change
Justification: (SM Protean) Both users of Protean have kinda faded away by this point, they both could use a pick-me-up while neither would be too overpowered (or so I assume ;-;) Although this would further keep offense dominant in ND, and may be a bit toxic with ghold in the picture, but Meow being a real Pokemon hopefully can help out some balances and these two deserve it >w<
Click to expand...
Name: Velocity
Effect: For contact moves, use the user's speed stat for damage calculation.
Permanent (Yes or No): No
Mold Breaker (Yes or No): No
Potential Pokémon With This Ability: Electrode, Persian, Furret, Zebstrika, Raikou, Sceptile, Inteleon
Justification: Fast but physically weak Pokemon can invest in their bulk instead of Attack (most contact moves are physical), and still hit hard. But they HAVE to use contact moves to get this effect, which leaves them vulnerable to abilities that punish contact.
Click to expand...
Name: Route Closed
Effect: This Pokemon is immune to pivot moves and restores 1/4 of its maximum HP, rounded down, when hit by a pivot move. The opponent does not get switched out by its pivot move if used on a Pokémon with this ability. Ex. Landorus-T uses U-Turn on Pokemon with this ability, the Pokemon with the ability is healed 25% HP and Landorus does not get switched out by the move.
Permanent (Yes or No): No
Mold Breaker (Yes or No): Yes
Potential Pokémon With This Ability: :conkeldurr: :mudsdale: :orthworm: :great tusk: :iron treads: :rhyperior:
Justification: Adds a completely new dynamic to the constant pivot war we’ve been in for decades
Click to expand...
Name: Crystal Crown
Effect: Holder takes 0.67x damage from Z-Moves, Mega-Evolved Pokemon, Dynamaxed Pokemon and Terastallized Pokemon.
Can Be Knocked Off (Yes or No): Yes
Ignored by Klutz (Yes or No): Yes
Fling Power & Effect: 40bp
Justification: Last two are for flavor, but this basically acts as a specific counter-tool to hold off some of the more explosive or dangerous options of the format.
Click to expand...
Name: Aguav, Figy, Iapapa, Mago, Wiky Berry
Effect: Restores 1/2 max HP at 1/4 Max hp or less. Single Use
Can Be Knocked Off (Yes or No): Yes
Ignored by Klutz (Yes or No): Yes
Fling Power & Effect: 10 & Restores 1/2 max HP
Justification: Reverting the mostly vgc nerf for the berries.. this allows mons like rotom, lando-t, great tusk maybe.. to use this berry and have more instant recovery...
Click to expand...
Name: Silvally's Memories (The 17 existing ones + a new Normal Memory)
Effect: Reduces damage taken from moves of their corresponding type by 0.67x. Holder's Multi-Attack matches the memory's type.
Can Be Knocked Off (Yes or No): Yes (unless the holder has RKS System)
Ignored by Klutz (Yes or No): Yes
Fling Power & Effect: 50 BP
Justification: Giving the counterpart to Arceus' plates a real use, inverting the offensive use of the plates by giving them a defensive one. These are very simply worse resist berries, but with infinite use (unless you get knocked or something) and you don't have to be weak to the type in question for it to activate, allowing a mon to partially shut down moves of any type it wants. Definitely less powerful than other defensive items like Boots or Lefties, but they should be a good niche option.
Click to expand...
Name: Strange Cigar
Effect: Disable the user's ability. Holder's contact moves disable the opponent's ability.
Can Be Knocked Off (Yes or No): Yes
Ignored by Klutz (Yes or No): Yes
Fling Power & Effect: 50 BP, Disables opponent's ability.
Justification: Somewhat goofy item that gives fellas like Slaking and Regigigas a chance to be usable. Can be very disruptive with trick as well
Click to expand...
Name: Ice Axe
Effect: The holder's Ice moves are guaranteed to critically hit while Snow is active.
Can Be Knocked Off (Yes or No): Yes
Ignored by Klutz (Yes or No): Yes
Fling Power & Effect: 80 BP
Justification: Goofy boosting item based on an ability from a solomod I never released. Snow appears to not be in the best shape in NatDex, so this gives Snow something more than just Veil + Setup spam, as now you can make your Blizzard spammers hit with the power of a Choice Specs at no extra cost. Could even run Nasty Plot Ninetales-A with this, if you're so inclined.
Click to expand...
Name: Honey
Effect: When this Pokemon's HP drops below 50%, restores 25% HP. The item is then consumed.
This item cannot be removed from the holder unless it is consumed. Any attempt to remove/steal this item lower's the attacker's Speed by one stage.
Can Be Knocked Off: N (attempting to Knock Off the item will lower the attacker's Speed by one stage).
Ignored by Klutz: Y
Fling Power & Effect: 20 BP, lowers target's Speed by 1 (can only by Tricked or Flung by a Pokemon with Klutz, or in Magic Room)
Justification: A failed sub from Vaporemons that I still think could be useful. Healing item with a natural Sticky Hold (+Gooey, sort of) effect. Figured it made sense thematically, picture Winnie the Pooh getting his hands sticky while eating out of a honeypot. Other than that, it is just a Sitrus Berry but better. (If this wins I will also sub a change to Honey Gather to add to the usefulness of this item)
Click to expand...
:sv/Umbreon:
Name: Umbreon
Type: Dark/Poison
Abilities: Magic Guard, Natural Cure
New Moves: Knock Off, Scorching Sands, Slack Off
Justification: All things considered umbreon has really decent stats for an eeveelution + gen 2 mon. Giving it a slightly improved moveset along with actual abilities and the good typing might make it usable beyond trolling, which would be cool i think.
Click to expand...
:sv/silvally:
Name: Silvally
Type:
Normal.png

Abilities: RKS System
New Moves: Knock Off, Roost, Stealth Rock, Close Combat, Earthquake, Stone Edge, Boomburst, Dragon Dance, Heal Bell, Taunt, Trailblaze, Hurricane, Fire Blast, Thunder, Blizzard, Hydro Pump, Focus Blast, Aura Sphere, Meteor Beam, Refresh, Aqua Tail, Supercell Slam, Dazzling Gleam, Seed Bomb, Gunk Shot, Psychic, Water Pledge, Fire Pledge, Vacuum Wave, Quick Attack, Disable
Removed Moves: N/A
Justification: Second but completely unrelated Silvally buff I'm subbing slate 1. Silvally being a balanced version of Arceus is such a sick concept and, if it worked, it'd work wonders as a glue option when you really need a mon of a specific type to some specific role. However, Silvally completely fails at this mainly due to its stats, which I can't fix, but also due to its poor movepool for what it's supposed to be. Multi-Attack hits like a truck, but all of its non-STAB moves are weak since almost all of them are under 100 BP and Silvally's forms can't hold boosting items, and its utility movepool is too shallow to function as a good wall despite good 95/95/95 bulk. So, I basically dumped a truckload of new moves onto Silvally that'll help it do whatever it needs to do on a team, making it a much easier niche option to justify when you need a certain piece that other viable mons just can't fill. Better offensive moves like Close Combat, Earthquake, Boomburst, and Knock Off let moves not named Multi-Attack hit hard, better utility like Roost, Stealth Rock, Taunt, and Heal Bell let it do more defensively, and it even has a setup option in Dragon Dance, which I'm willing to bet it'll get in the next game it exists in if Dragon Dance is still a TM.
Click to expand...
:sv/kyurem: :sv/kyurem-black:
Name: Kyurem / Kyurem-Black
Type:
Dragon.png
Ice.png

Abilities: Pressure (Teravolt)
New Moves: Ice Punch
Removed Moves: Dragon Dance, Icicle Spear, Scale Shot
Justification: Kyurem-Black is back! Without Dragon Dance and its multi-hit STAB options that made it quite banworthy, it returns with only the option of Ice Punch as a reliable physical option. Hone Claws seems questionable to leave be, but without boosting its speed Kyurem-Black can definitely be handled more easily. The Z-move power of Ice Punch shouldn't lead to any drastic calculations, as it never kills Ferrothorn at +1 or Kartana unboosted.
Click to expand...

With that, we can begin a shorter than usual discussion phase as council discusses the distribution of the winning moves and abilities. You can talk about the metagame impacts you think all the winners will have, give distribution suggestions (though remember that this isn't a distribution phase like the Sylve and JolteMons of old), and prepare submissions for the upcoming Slate 2. Expect it sometime Monday afternoon in GMT -5!
