I've finally figured out the perfect Politoed mod; Yes, this will be good.

Trait, Politoed, Compoundeyes, 2

No one ever uses Damp, so why not this? It finally makes Politoed unique among Water types, and Water types need differentiation.

Also, Wish would be nice, too.

Well, Blizzard may not be much of a problem, as it's accuracy is 91% after the boost and Surf is still more powerful with STAB. But I can see Hydro Pump being a problem with STAB 120 power and 100% accuracy.

Of course, that's solved with Illegal, Politoed, Hydro Pump

Hypnosis and Toxic are the only ones that jump out

Hypnosis is up to 78% (about the same as Sleep Powder), and Toxic goes up to 100%

I like it.

Personally I wouldn't think 100% Hydro Pump is too bad. <_<; Maybe try it out, and if it's too bad, get rid of it?

Maybe give it to a crappier water type?

EDIT: This could be a way of saving Seaking for forever NU.

Accurate STAB Hydro Pump, as well as accurate Blizzard, Megahorn (woot) and Doom Desire would be awesome.

I agree 100%. And as for Seaking, I still say just give it Hustle and be done with it.

Well Politoed should most definitely lose Calm Mind then.

I agree with spanky, cm STAB hydro pump that doesnt miss is scary. Seaking sounds like a decent candidate for reasons stated above.

I think that losing Hydro Pump would be preferrable to losing Calm Mind. Politoed's sp atk is only 90 base, and needs boosting to really do damage. And besides, 1 CM makes Surf beat that power, anyway, and we let Politoed have that moveset in the regular meta, and Calm Mind makes it much more versatile.

I suppose you can't ban a combination of traits and moves, can you?

Firstly to answer your question, no. I have long wanted Endevour and Wonder Guard Illegal Sheddy (Sandstream Endevour double kill ROFLZ).

Secondly, don't get me wrong, I love the idea of giving a water type Compoundeyes. However I do think you need to look after from the bias of your favourite pogey. Politoed is already very viable in mods. It has half-decent stats, and a good water movepool.

Seaking has a similar movepool, but just terrible stats on the whole, so needs something to stop it from being completely ignored.

IMO.

I suppose that is true, but Seaking does have Horn Drill, which I really wouldn't want combined with Compoundeyes.

And Endeavor sheddy is a little cheap, even with Sandstream. An instant, nearly unavoidable kill is very gamebreaking.

Except anybody who uses Horn Drill here will get flamed like hell.

Um. Endeavor is 100% accurate and hits all types, including ghosts. Horn Drill has 39% accuracy with Compoundeyes and does not hit ghosts.

Plus you guys are missing the joke points that ENDEAVOUR SANDSTREAM SHEDDY KILLS ITSELF.

Well, I suppose you just have to switch in a ground/steel/rock/sand veil and you get a free kill. but at the cost of reducing said pokemon to 1 HP.

On the other hand, that would be hilarious with Kabutops. Instant set up for Flail with Salac.

Compound eyes horn drill would be stupid.

30% of 30% is 9 so in essence compound eyes seaking w/ horn drill has a 39% to ohko its target.

OMG SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE.

Actually, it is a significant difference, just still not enough to warrant use =\

Hustle Seaking would completely nerf its Megahorn mod, and perhaps Doom Desire, too. ;_;
