Pokémon Abilities Face-Off

-Nator-

Well-Known Member
Welcome to a "new" face-off thread (more so yet another rehash) where in-game Pokémon abilities face off and compete against one another.

1. Up to 6 nominations per user (subject to increase, depending on participation rate)

2. All abilities must be from the mainline Pokémon games. Nothing from spinoffs, anime, TCG etc. please.

3. Only established in-game (mainline) abilities are qualified to be nominated in this face-off. Do not nominate unreleased abilities.

4. Please do not nominate any beta/alpha abilities that were never actually implemented in the past or present games.

5. Do not to nominate an ability that was nominated by a previous user. If you can, correct your mistake and replace (or remove) an ability or abilities if mistakes were made.

How it works:


-Subtract one point from an ability you don't want to win.
-Once an ability has reached 0, it's out permanently (until next game)
-Ability pairings are determined via an online random number sequence generator.



Rules


1. All SPPf General, Games, and Face-Off rules apply.

2. No arguing, complaining, pouting, or having an attitude if your preferred ability (or abilities) are eliminated. Keep it civil.

3. Above rule includes not harassing, flaming, belittling, teasing, or causing a scene under any circumstance. Keep in mind: It's just a game, and games are meant to have fun, whether if one is on a winning or losing side, so to speak.

4. No forming alliances or agreements with other users to put one ability (or abilities) over others.

5. Please wait until another user has posted until you post again.

6. If you can, please correct the tally if you were ninja'd or have made a typo of sorts.

7. Don't intentionally post incorrect tallies or information.

8. Waiting periods and cooldown times subject to change periodically, depending on flow of activity.

9. Have fun.​
