STAFF ONLY: Composite Pokemon Files and Trainer Aces

[SomebodyData]

To a degree, I agree with Aiden.

But it does seem we are having backlash from members and are being divided by this.

Is anyone willing to say an alternative and perhaps give an example of what we should do? And perhaps fuse the current ideas or replace it?

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

I'm still for how we had profiles ORIGINALLY at we take them at their fullest potential using their best feats from the canon media (the primary games, manga, and anime).

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Sorry if I seem riled up, btw

 

[Promestein]

I think basing the pages off of what is generally reasonable and consistent throughout a composite would be best

 

[AidenBrooks999]

I'm still for how we had profiles ORIGINALLY at we take them at their fullest potential using their best feats from the canon media (the primary games, manga, and anime).

Practically, my idea but without the order.

I said to include everything (To an extent, obviously do not scale well trained pokemon with wild ones) but clarify where the feat came from

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Here's the thing. Say, Dragonit is said to be superior th Charizard in every regard, trained or not, in the manga. We'd rate his speed at supersonic anyway because Charizard's feat came from the anime. That wouldn't be the case with my idea.

 

[AidenBrooks999]

We already said that Anime and Manga do not scale to each other

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Yeah. Which is why I was against that. Vehemently. From the beginning. Otherwise, say, canon Yveltal is slower than 1% of Zygarde. Only reason I didn't argue was because the alternative was a ton of tabs.

 

[AidenBrooks999]

One thing is composite


Other is to use a statement from one media for the other.

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Statement?

 

[AidenBrooks999]

Your dragonite example.


No matter what is show in one media, would not scale to other no matter how composite the profile is (Except Game, everything scale from game)

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Well to be fair, it was nothing more than an example.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Okay let's balance this out.

So I've realized that we have this HUGE problem with this stuff, hence why I made this thread.

So how about we do this like Digimon with a little added stuff. We have

General Species| Anime Canon| Manga Canon| Game Canon| Full Composite

Then we put lesser feats under a feats tab. There no problem. It is a balance between all suggestions.

 

[AidenBrooks999]

Unneccesary number of tabs, if you ask me.

Composite but clarify seems better

More organization and evade confusion between medias

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

I agree with Aiden. Too many tabs for no real benefit.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Not really. If we have a general species stat then we have something to scale from throughout the media. Composite will add the highest feats with stuff such as Mystery Dungeon and PokePark.

 

[SomebodyData]

At this point, I think Aiden may work, of course, we must clarify thoroughly and be extremely strict about this, as one profile may set the whole thing off.

@Dragon, if we have problems later on because of the change, we could always change it back. This argument has been taking its toll on everyone.

The only thing I fear is the potential accidental wank and downplay if this goes through.

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

I've seen enough downplay. Doubt it could be any worse.

As you can see, I'm pretty tired...

 

[SomebodyData]

Well downplay wise I too doubt it can get worse.

Wank wise, on the other hand....

Yeah I'm tired too..

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Agreed on the wank wise. I'll admit that I do it occasionally.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Accidental wank is bound to happen to everyone tbh. This is why we try to fix it.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

So what will we do again?

 

[SomebodyData]

For now, Aiden's suggestion. Of course, I am still staying on the the idea that if accidental wank becomes mainstream because of this, we will change it back.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Well if accidental wank happens we know how to fix it.

 

[SomebodyData]

Ye, but mainstream accidental wank is far more of a problem than the order we had previously.

 

[Dragonmasterxyz]

Yeah. Well everything has its pros and cons. This method is not as restrictive and allows for more content while accidental wank can happen more often.

 

[Antvasima]

It might be an idea to clarify this in the rules section of the Pokemon verse page.

 

[AidenBrooks999]

Yeah, I always thought that SD added when we first accepted the idea

 

[Antvasima]

It does not seem so.
