.... Wow. That is the most detailed first post AND first suggestion I've ever seen. Be proud for overdoing it a little. It just means a little more understanding for the concept.

I wrote the majority of that about three years ago, on a word document. When I was younger, my friend and I loved making up pokemon. We created a whole region, with a story, gym leaders and an elite 4, all on one word document, which i found recently. It included real pokemon, over 100 of our made up pokemon, and a few PF ones (I remember including the Brandle evo line, the Vulcanus line, and the Pridant line, among others). Murmette was always my favorite, so i decided to submit it first. In preparation, I wrote as complex a submission as I could. Those other two that I mentioned near the bottom were my other favorites.

Might I suggest that it evolves by trade w/ Reaper Cloth, like Dusknoir? That way it could have a ghost counterpart. Plus, I plan on suggesting both another evo for Banette and Dusclops, so this would make the two chains even.

That would make sense. So, did you mean you are working on alternate evos?

Yeah I did. Sorry I wasn't making that clear. I plan on suggesting them the next opportunity that I get. Does anyone think I could get away with the both of them in one suggestion since they are intended to be specific counterparts?

Have you already suggested two evo lines of mons?

Yeah oh well, I guess I'll just be patient. Anyhoo back to your evo, I think it is great, especially because its connotations perfectly oppose the basis of my evo, whose name will be (SPOILER ALERT!!) Mallette.

If that means what I think it means then I think it would be perfect.
...As in, mallet? Like a giant hammer? Banette seems to be the mischievous kind, and giving it a giant, cartoony hammer would be awesome. It could have a very high attack, be funny, yet not in a gag-mon way, and it would look awesome. Thats just what i think, and if it doesn't mean that, then ok. I was just a-thinkin'.

That's exactly the point!! I was also playing off the whole Banette reminds me of bayonett-weapon-thingy idea. But keep that under wraps.

What is the deal with this Careless ability? I understand the lowering defense and the no infatuation, but how does it prevent confusion? It seems like it would facilitate confusion IMO

Well, why would you bother working yourself into a confused state if you don't care about whatever the opponent is doing to try to confuse you?

Ah, answering a question with a question, I see. Well then tell me this, wouldn't something careless not pay attention, and thereby lose focus on what's going on around it, confusing it as to the current situation?

No one ever said anything about not paying attention.

I dunno, Careless seems like it might be a bit OP-ish, and Rahjet makes good points.
How about Oblivious?

Oblivious/Insomnia/Own Tempo or even Levitate, in my opinion - pick your poison

Pretty solid concept though, without losing the charm that Banette has - although I was kind of hoping a return to the UFO-ish roots of Shuppet - this works very well too.

Sob is probably rather overpowered move, despite the hit-or-miss accuracy of it.

As far as stats go, I assume it's kind of like what Dusclops gets when it evolves; only slight increase in the high stats(in Banette's case, offensive stats) and a bit higher rise in another stat(for Dusclops it was attack, in this case it could be HP or Speed) and not much else changed.

yeah, i had just as much trouble with the abilities. I considered all of those. Sob may be overpowered, you're right. I was wondering if anyone could suggest another drawback to make it less overpowered.

I've also considered Unaware, which is logical, and Frisk, which Banette has, for the ability.

Well, when one considers that there are a multitude of moves that have a chance of raising all of the user's stats (ancientpower etc.), it seems to me to not be unfair at all that there should be a move that acts as a counter to this (Granted, the raising of all stats does depend on percentage chance). So I'd suggest that either Sob's effects stay the same but it's PP is reduced to 5, in keeping with other powerful moves, or it's use could require a recharge turn afterwards, as the user regains it's composure.

I like both of those ideas. If the accuracy was 100, then I think the PP should be 5. And if the PP was still at 10 with the accuracy at 100, then it could have a recharge turn.
