Hi All,
With Privatyke nearing completion I thought I would jump in here and throw up a few things for Syclar which need to be sorted out. We'll run this similar to how the CaP Updates were done, with all the discussion taking place in the single thread and we can split off to vote in other threads.
Name: Syclar
Type: Ice / Bug
Abilities: Compoundeyes / Snow Cloak / <Undetermined Hidden Ability>
Stats: 40 HP / 76 Atk / 45 Def / 74 SpA / 39 SpD / 91 Spe
Evolves Via: Level Up at Level 30
Height: 0'08" (0.2m)
Weight: 8.8lbs (4.0kg)
Here is Syclar's old movepool:
And LucarioOfLegends new Syclant movepool can be found here: CAP Updates: Syclant Discussion
Syclant got a fairly minor update into Gen 7, keeping his signature powerful combinations of Physical and Special sets. Syclant got the following added to its movepool:
Icicle Spear (Level Up), Absorb (Level Up, replaces Leech Life), Icicle Crash (Level Up), Fell Stinger (Egg), Signal Beam (Egg, Tutor), Round, Brutal Swing, Bulldoze, Frost Breath, Confide (All TMs), Hone Claws (Transfer move), Struggle Bug (Transfer move). <Please let me know if you spot any mistakes here, I think I got them all>
Due to some confusion here even though it's been said in every movepool thread I have ever created: Don't change the egg moves. These should be here:
I'd like to add that if possible avoid adding in the Transfer moves to Syclar's movepool (I believe it can make some things act oddly in the Sim). Also make sure to switch Leech Life with Absorb. Let's not have Syclar being a death machine from Lv 0 thanks...
Otherwise, this works basically the exact same way as a normal movepool submission thread. I am allowing Final Submissions from the start of this thread, and you guys have a few days to discuss how you want things to be put together! Obviously do not add any other new moves other than those listed above. Please work from LucarioOfLegends movepool which was linked above as a baseline and compare it with Syclar's original movepool if you want too.
Also, please let me know if you would like to see the HA change at all from Syclant's. I am not sure if anyone is massively bothered by what it ends up being, but some consistency would be nice.

As Syclar is a Generation IV Pokemon, we need to set up a Hidden Ability and we also need to update his movepool to match Syclant's. I am more than happy to retain Ice Body as the HA for Syclar (to match Syclant's), but if people would like to have a different one I would be open to suggestions.Dex Entries said:Syclar, the Icicle Pokémon.
Diamond: SYCLAR typically live at the feet of tall, snow-capped mountains. From the day they hatch, they aspire to someday scale the tallest of peaks.
Pearl: SYCLAR celebrate the onset of winter by coming out of their summer burrows and using their small, sharp claws to skate on the fresh river ice.
Platinum: Riding the gusts of blizzards, a swarm of SYCLAR is doubly harmful to even the hardiest of crops; they eat whatever plant matter the cold winds and snow leave untouched.
