Not Exactly Helping

Idea mostly from locri's thread in addition to other research threads
Welcome to the CAP biweekly research thread. Here we research a chosen Pokemon from the CAP metagame by building with and using them in competitive matches and then discussing our findings. Participants then have two weeks to write up their findings in a detailed post that analyzes the Pokemon and its role in the CAP metagame. Once the two weeks are up there will be a vote on which post is the best and that post will go in to the Hall of Fame.
How it Works:

CAP Biweekly Research
Welcome to the CAP biweekly research thread. Here we research a chosen Pokemon from the CAP metagame by building with and using them in competitive matches and then discussing our findings. Participants then have two weeks to write up their findings in a detailed post that analyzes the Pokemon and its role in the CAP metagame. Once the two weeks are up there will be a vote on which post is the best and that post will go in to the Hall of Fame.
How it Works:
- Each week a new Pokemon is chosen
- Over the course of two weeks, research and discussion on that Pokemon occurs
- Research involves building around the Pokemon and playing in competitive matches
- Participants write up their findings in a detailed post that includes some or all of:
- Teambuilding strategy
- Sets used
- Strengths and weaknesses of the Pokemon
- Analysis of how the Pokemon fits into the current meta
- Replays of your own battles and/or tournament battles (the battles should be against decent teams, no 6 CAP ladder battles)
- Anything else you think might help in your post
- When a post is completed, it should be made clear that it is ready for voting in some way (e.g. “Final Submission” or something similar at the top)
- Once the two weeks is up there will be a period of time (~24 hrs) where there is no discussion and people vote on which post they think is the most detailed and well constructed
- Once the voting is done, a new Pokemon will be posted and discussion on it will begin
