Hey all! Let's get Arghonaut completely up to date with a brand new shiny set of Dex entries!

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 favorites and downvote your least favorites. 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


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 A 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 the PS! CAP chatroom or the CAP Discord channel.

Asking for votes for your submission or for the submissions of others is not allowed. Anyone found to have done so risks punishment at the moderation team's discretion. If you find that someone has broken this rule, please contact the CAP moderation team with your evidence and no one else. Mini-moderation of this rule is also considered a serious offense and can be punished.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here are the legal entries:

Amitghosh
Final Submission

Arghonaut,
the Territorial Pokemon

Diamond: ARGHONAUT relentlessly attack ships passing through their territory, paying no heed to their opponent's strength. None of those ships are ever found again.

Pearl: ARGHONAUT are known to be fond of gold. They often hunt MAREEP just because their fleeces have a golden tinge.

Platinum: The mannerisms of ARGHONAUT differ greatly from region to region. While most care for their crew, some don't hesitate to stab them in the back.
Snorlax in the way
Final Submission

Arghonaut
, the Pirate Pokémon

Diamond: Hearty and boisterous, ARGHONAUT are known to take over opposing ships and crews for entertainment.

Pearl: ARGHONAUT are very efficient sea captains, commanding crews of both Pokémon and people alike.

Platinum: ARGHONAUT are a bit egotistical due to their success as captains, and from the vast number of PRIVATYKE that aspire to be them.
HatfulofBomb
Final Submission

Arghonaut
, the Swashbuckler Pokémon

Diamond: ARGHONAUTS rarely travel without a crew of PRIVATYKE and other seafaring Pokémon as a pirating crew.

Pearl: ARGHONAUTS are a menace to any seafaring vessel, known to plunder the ships for any valuables.

Platinum: If one manages to find the lair of an ARGHONAUT, they will find the hoard of plunder that lies within.
Hesh Kadesh
Final Submission

Arghonaut, the Pirate Pokémon

Diamond: They are mortal enemies of CLOYSTER, as the ARGHONAUT frequently battle them in an attempt to hoard the largest black pearl for themselves.

Pearl: Rumours of it capturing WARTORTLE and riding them across the ocean are thought to be greatly exaggerated by weary sailors.

Platinum: When captured, ARGHONAUT is frequently shown to have an attraction to shiny things, and should be frequently placated with gifts lest it becomes mutinous.
G-Luke
Final Submission

Arghonaut
, the Pirate Pokemon

Diamond: ARGHONAUT is known for capsizing the ships of any sailor that sails into its territory, if that ship lacks any booty.

Pearl: A tactical fighter, ARGHONAUT can take on several fighters at once, fighting each with a different arm.

Platinum: One can tell how bountiful and hearty an ARGHONAUT'S ship is by the size of its PRIVATYKE crew.
KirbyRider, snake and lucario were all edited after the fact, so they are DSQ'd. Martin's is once again massively long, Exploudit abuses commas and garbagery has several spelling errors.

Here are those names again with no formatting:

Amitghosh
Snorlax in the way
HatfulofBomb
Hesh Kadesh

Have fun! You've got about 24 hours or so!
