The top 3 from the last poll have moved on and will duke it out in Ranked Pairs.

This will be a Ranked Pairs vote (RP) (a form of voting where each candidate is paired against its competitors in head to head match ups and the distance between head to head victories are used to determine the winner in cases where a true Condorcet winner is not present), the details of which were discussed 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

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.

For Level Up, it was obviously necessary to remove Earth Power, so I went ahead and did that. Eventually I decided to add in Sky Attack at a later level, since (to me at least) Tomo looks like something that would get it just by leveling, and then shifted everything back one slot until Earth Power's slot was filled in. The bolded levels represent those moves which were shifted back by one slot. Oh, and since I'm like the only one not adding Scratch, I'll explain my reasoning. There are many instances of weird movepool choices in the Pokémon Universe, and as Tomo already learns Fury Swipes, I simply don't understand the point in adding another similar move to the move list. It seems redundant.

I used Tutor moves for Snore and Helping Hand along with the two tail moves mentioned (Iron and Aqua).
Secret Power (Formerly TM43)
Incinerate (Formerly TM59)
Retaliate (Formerly TM67)
Flash (Formerly TM70)
Strength (Formerly HM04)
Power-Up Punch (Formerly TM98)

Former TMs I've just added Power-Up Punch because it's nearly universal on fighting types with arms, which Tomo definitely kind of has.

This is my first time doing one of these so, hopefully this was ok. If there are any problems, just notify me and I'll change them lickety-split.

I added Scratch at level 4, as it is usually a very early and common move on any Pokemon, and it makes far too much sense considering its prevo is called Scratchet. I removed Earth Power and moved Air Slash into the slot, while shifting the remaining moves up to the place of the move before it. I did switch the placement of Rest and Hurricane, as the three consecutive moves make far less sense with Rest being awkwardly placed. Finally, I added Sky Attack, as it makes perfect sense with Tomohawk's abilities as a god of fertility, a number of winged Flying types get it, and similar Pokemon in backstory Sigilyph also gets it via level up.

No new additions here, but for some reason Nature Power is not listed in its egg moves, although that is how it is supposed to get it. Must have been a typo. So dudes (and dudettes for Rev), don't forget to add this.

Added the universal TM in Confide as well as Steel Wing, as a ton of Flying types get it and its pretty not great competitively. Removed Reflect as well, according to our updates. Also, since its no longer a TM, Fly was added to remain consistent with its HM movepool. And since Roost is back as a TM, might as well add it here.

Transfer Only TMs
Secret Power (BW/ORAS)
Incinerate (BW/ORAS)
Retaliate (BW/ORAS)
Flash (BW/ORAS)
Rock Smash (BW/ORAS)
Strength (BW/ORAS)
Power-Up Punch (ORAS)


Most of these moves are missing on the new TM list, and Strength didn't turn into a TM after the HM removal. Power-Up Punch is a fitting move in this scenario, and can be learned in Gen 6.

Move Tutor
Snore
Iron Tail
Aqua Tail
Helping Hand


Only added the required moves in Snore, Iron Tail, and Helping Hand, as well as the flavorfully sound Aqua Tail. Nothing else really appealed to me as something that totally fits with Tomohawk. I'd give it Tailwind, but it has far too much potential usage.
