Hey guys and welcome to the first poll of our brand new Prevo! Let's get this show started so I can throw up Art threads as soon as typing is decided!

We discussed some options for Minimanta's type here: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/cap-19-pre-evo-part-1-typing-discussion.3520782/ and we have decided that the slate below should be what we have to choose from. Please read some of the rules below and let's get going!

This will be a Preferential Block Vote (PBV) (a form of Instant Runoff Voting which re-runs the counting, each time removing the previously top-ranked candidate in order to determine the 2nd most preferred, 3rd most preferred, etc.), the details of which are outlined here and here. This is a ranked vote: order does matter! You can upvote your favourites and downvote your least favourites. You may choose to rank as many or as few options as you like, but we encourage you to rank as many options as possible to ensure your preferences are taken into account.

Bold your votes and nothing else! A typical vote might look like the following:
Most Preferred
Second Most Preferred
Third Most Preferred
Fourth Most Preferred


Any comments that the voter has would go below the votes in non-bold text. Bold text is used to determine what the user's votes are, so none of the supplementary text should be in bold.
CAP uses automated scripts to count votes. For this reason, it is very important for all ballots to be submitted correctly. If you do not compose a legal ballot, your post will be subject to moderation.
  • The scripts count bold words in ballots, so do NOT bold anything in your ballot other than the options you are voting for.
  • Do NOT put any formatting other than bold in your post.
  • Only one option per line.
  • Spelling of options must be EXACTLY correct and must match the spelling listed above.
  • Capitalization and spaces are ignored by the vote counting scripts, but you probably should not depend on it.
Composing a proper ballot is easy. Enter BBCode Edit Mode (the wrench in the upper right corner). Copy/paste the options directly from the OP to your ballot as plain unbolded text. Delete and/or rearrange the options to suit your preference and the poll type. Bold your vote text using bold tags or re-enter rich text mode, highlight your vote and click B. Spelling or formatting errors may spoil your ballot, so be careful!

Please post only your votes in this thread. Do not respond to other posts, or your posts will be moderated and you may be warned. You are allowed to say whatever you like in relation to your vote at the bottom of your post, but please do not look to begin a discussion. Keep those comments to #cap on IRC.

The slate is as follows:

Electric/Poison
Electric/Water
Electric
Poison

You have 24 hours or so to vote!

Honestly, this is the only logical choice in this case. The precedent is very clear on the matter.

Being I don't think we were trying to change how the prevo would play compared with Plasmanta, I think these are the two option that'll help it act like a mini-Plasmanta the best.

Normally I'm more conservative with stuff like this, but I'm really feeling the wacky type change this time around.
