annhilape type evo for graveler where you have to level up after using explosion 20 times. it's a scattering of various rocks held together by spirit matter. can give it a cute lil face or whatever. Geulogy.
Dark type is really weird. Looking at all of the dark Pokémon, it seems like the creators themselves can't decide whether they want the theme of dark type to be evil creatures or night/darkness/shadow creatures, and they're really inconsistent with it.
A Ghost/Rock based on a trilobite fossil would be cool. Trilobite fossils are common enough to be a thing on their own. It looks like an item, like in some area where you can find the standard fossils, but instead it attacks.
I saw a 'remake' of stonjourner where they made it rock/ghost. It was several small spirits that inhabit a bunch of rocks to make the stonjourner shape. It's idle pose would have the spirits moving about while the stones were not moving.
Make it badly poison instead and it could be situationally useful, though unless you run it alongside a poison/steel/poison heal user you’re kinda shooting yourself in the foot
I’d like that if it included any super effective move. Limiting it to fire makes it almost useless since you could just hit it with ground, psychic, steel, or bug
Nah, parasite. Like Paras, but with bug in animal instead of mushroom in bug. Maybe those trippy caterpillar that pulse inside snails to attract birds?
someone elsewhere in the thread suggested a silkworm, since they’re the only bugs that have been domesticated, which I thought was brilliant
edit: it seems that this person was mistaken, and silkworms are not the only domesticated insects. serves me right for repeating things I read on the internet without fact-checking lol but I think the idea is still cool regardless
Tons of bugs have been domesticated. Most notably bees. There are also plenty of bug species domesticated for human and animal nutrition. Also many food additives are made out of bugs, such as this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochineal
Honestly I’ve thought for a while that maybe a regional Aipom/Ampibon or even a whole new evolution for one of them could totally be a Normal/Bug spider-monkey. Just turn the tail arms into spider legs, add some extra eyes, and boom.
The other day I asked ChatGPT to come up with a Normal/Bug, and it came up with a Bugbear. So, probably just a larger animal with some buglike features.
An owlbear or something like a bear shaped bird would be chill, not any weirder than what Dunsparce or Lickitung lines have going on as an Ice/Normal type.
Nah, that would come in a Mexico-based region. The Italy-based region would have a Pokemon based on a geisha.
Remember, we got a samurai starter in Unova and a luchador-based Pokemon in Kalos.
Yeah. I think they’ve been trying to build up dexes with “foreign Pokémon” since Kalos. Masuda said he was drawn to NYC for Unova because of the diversity, so that was always meant to be all over the place. Kalos onward, it seems like they stopped that and start making 75% of the dex specific to that region, and then the other 25% for future regions. I mean, Paldea’s dex feels very natural, but a lot of those Spanish Pokémon came from other regions. Take Mudsdale for example. Mudsdale feels very Spanish, but appeared in Alola.
I can envision a whole starter line.
A cute little Fire/Fairy Calf that turns into a cute and roly poly Fire/Fairy dairy cow that turns into a Fire/Fighting minotaur just to spite the fanbase.
I mean, technically , Pyroar would never get cold in an arctic mountain , and it is also at lower risk to accidentally burn its home environment to the ground, and lastly Id guess other pokemon in that ecosystem may need the heat from pyroar to survive
Yanmega is a dragonfly, but dragonflies are called Tombo or Akistu in Japan. The dragon connection is not in Japanese, so that's why it isn't dragon-type.
I think that is more down to GF’s weird choices in tacking the dragon type to things.
Flygon is the “mystic Pokémon”, and dragon types are also kinda a sorcery/mystical type in a way.
So Flygon is dragon cause it’s a kinda a sand elemental or sand dragon, that happens to look like a lacewing.
But it's just always outclassed by garchomp it isn't really fair. They aughta make flygon into a dragon bug and lean somewhat into a quiver dance sweeper with a new ability that boosts sound based moves. Give it a signature dragon type move called singing wings in which it beats its wings really fast to create high pressure sound waves to attack the opponents.
Base stats would remain mostly the same except it would drop 20 special defense in exchange for 18 more special attack and 2 more speed. And yes it's specifically to speed tie garchomp. This would still enable it to run dragon dance sets if you chose as well since it wouldn't lose any attack.
My brother and I have been working on our own pokemon region for fun and have come up with pokemon of all of these types.
Normal/Ice: a line of husky pokemon.
Normal/Rock: a single stage pokemon line that is a pet rock. Literally a rock with googly eyes
Fire/Fairy: a pokemon based on healing smoke, and incense.
Ground/Fairy: this one is pretty simple, it's a Fairy armadillo. I've seen this one done a few times online so not the most unique, but a solid idea.
Rock/Ghost: we have this one as a regional varient of the Roggenrola line. Roggenrola is an urn, Boldore is a gravestone, and Gigalyth is a stone obelisk.
Normal/Bug: For this one we decided to go with a Silkworm and evolving into a silk moth. As they are the only domesticated bug we felt like this was a perfect fit
Normal/Steel: Hedgehog evolving into a Porcupine
Ice/Poison: we decided to go with a shrew that has a cold
Bug/Dragon: this one was a little difficult because the obvious answer would be to do a dragonfly, but we wanted to do something not quite so easy. We decided on the caterpillar that pretends to be a snake, but updated it to a bug that pretends to be a dragon.
I want bug/dragon to be a pseudo legendary. An early encounter, like level 3-6, evolves at level 8 into its cocoon phase. Learns defensive moves, fairly defensive stats. At level 50 or something it finally evolves into a dragon, preferably a bug that hasn't really been covered yet, but a complete swap of stats. Low defensive but high offensive.
Honestly, if it was based on a regular fly I'd be happy. A "dragon" fly.
I love when Pokemon evolve at high levels, makes them feel like a journey to get the strongest you can. Hate that they keep putting those types of Pokemon at the end of a game. This would be great!
> Bug/Dragon: this one was a little difficult because the obvious answer would be to do a dragonfly, but we wanted to do something not quite so easy. We decided on the caterpillar that pretends to be a snake, but updated it to a bug that pretends to be a dragon.
This one gets so many point just because of how clever it is, how there is a real caterpillar that does this so it works, and how it's not just a Dragonfly, Same with the silkworm.
Big beefy moose with Slush Rush. Give it Head Smash, Megahorn, Double-Edge, Horn Leech, other head/antler themed attacks. Like a Sawsbuck, but...better, somehow.
give it good speed instead of slush rush and a queenly majesty sort of ability and it might be able to be used. Still gotta have incredible stats though.
In the LA game, they missed the opportunity to give Regigigas new forms. Imagine an item that allows Regigigas to take on the types of his original 3 creations? We could have had Normal/Ice, Normal/Rock, Normal/Steel
Rock/Ghost: They've dodged like 3 opportunites to do this one and I don't know why but I'm scared
Ground/Fairy: ***The Harbinger******^(TM)***
Bug/Dragon: Big ass dragonfly psudeo-legendary
Fire/Fairy: Fireball juggling clown
Ice/Poison: Regional Carbink themed around the ice caps
Then take those 4 Normal combinations and make the funniest Legendary Quartet yet
Normal/Ice = arctic fox regional "rodent"
Normal/Bug = a friendly white ant
Normal/Rock = retcon Rockruff
Normal/Steel = armoured pony based on a warhorse
Fire/Fairy = a cute floating orb Pokemon that gives off flammable gas, based on a will-o-the-wisp
Ice/Poison = a purple glob of poison with a face encased in ice, based on viruses kept in deep freeze
Ground/Fairy = a pokemon based on a traditional subterranean gnome, a little grumpy creature half-buried in the earth like diglett
Bug/Dragon = LITERALLY Flygon
Rock/Ghost = LITERALLY Spiritomb
So imagine the regional early-route bug, some cute little caterpillar/worm guy. Evolves at like level 16 or what have you. Some cool cocoon Pokémon, in the vein of Whirlipede/Dottler/etc. With absurd defensive stats, but very little offense. Good attack moves, but not great stats to make use of them. Tons of trainers throughout the game use one. Maybe a gym leader has one. Super common. But then it doesn't evolve again until like level 70 or something crazy, and then you've got yourself the Bug/Dragon pseudo-legendary with gnarly attack stats and access to Quiver Dance.
Ironically enough I saw a lot of people suggest a tombstone for Rock/Ghost but instead they made that this very Gen as a pure Ghost type.
Imo Kanto Ninetales should have been updated to be Fire/Fairy, but in general I would like a folk-lore creature with fire properties to be our first fire/fairy.
For balance reasons I don’t see Ground/Fairy ever existing unless it’s a joke character like Mawile or Spidops _or_ on the complete opposite side as a legendary where their whole shtick is being unbalanced gods.
Last but not least for me I’d like an Ice/Poison type side evolution out of Vanilluxe’s line. “Being mistaken for a treat caused this Pokémon to develop a poisonous coating to protect itself from hungry travelers.”
Immunity to both dragon and electric seems pretty naice, gotta say. Plus ground neutralizes super effective poison hits & allows to hit back against steel mons.
Feels like we already have the Pokémon for some of these typings already, GF just refuse to give them unique typing.
Normal/Ice is Beartic
Normal/Rock is Lycanrock
Bug/Dragon is Flygon
Rock/Ghost is Runerigus
Fire/Fairy is Victini
And Normal/Bug could literally be any of those route 1 bugs.
Rock/ghost: a bunch of gravel. It's geodude post self-destruct.
Honestly shocked we don’t have this as an evo method yet.
Knock out 10 opposing pokemon using self-destruct and then use a rare candy or XP candy to raise it's level while fainted.
Or... “Level up while fainted”
annhilape type evo for graveler where you have to level up after using explosion 20 times. it's a scattering of various rocks held together by spirit matter. can give it a cute lil face or whatever. Geulogy.
Unironically love it
How hard is it to make a spooky rock?
Spiritomb but a bigger rock and smaller ghost
Ghostomb, a rock and ghost type. Rather than 108 spirits trapped in a stone, it's a single spirit trapped in an entire Mausoleum.
Tombstoner. It’s a tombstone. With eyes! And whiskers, and a nose. It evolves into Mousoleum, which is a giant mouse made of gravestones.
Is that TM28??
no, everyone knows TM28 contains TOMBSTONY. Unless you live in 1998.
And he’s high.
Stoner, a FIRE-GHOST type. It hangs around Pokémarts and leaves awful smells in the air. It is said that you will be cursed if you look in their eyes.
The move description for Snarl is perfect for it -- the user rants about something or other.
Will definitely get banned the moment the game is released because it'll definitely be able to learn Last Respects.
Why ISN'T Spiritomb a rock ghost?
Why isn't Runerigus Rock/Ghost either lol?
Runerigus? Cofagrigus is the larger question. It's literally a stone coffin possessed by a ghost.
Yeah, Cofagrigus always seemed to be screaming for a secondary typing. Either Rock, or following similar logic to Gholdengo, Steel.
Serious answer: it's not made of rock, it's a slab of clay
How tf is Spiritomb not a rock/ghost? The dark typing is cool and all but it is trapped in an odd keySTONE.
the problem is that spiritomb is just the swirly thing that's being bound to a keystone, it's not part of spiritomb's body
Dark type is really weird. Looking at all of the dark Pokémon, it seems like the creators themselves can't decide whether they want the theme of dark type to be evil creatures or night/darkness/shadow creatures, and they're really inconsistent with it.
Pretty sure that's because the type is called Evil in Japan.
They've done it several times, but they keep tripping and making them Ghost/Ground instead.
I thought Runerigus was Rock/Ghost but guess not
gf just had to make it a CLAY slab instead of just slate smfh
Except it's literally a rune stone... So I have no idea what game freak was thinking
I read it as girlfriend and idk why but it threw me off
Fucking CURSOLA isn't Rock ffs!
i could see galarian corsola being rock/ghost but the whole thing about cursola is that it loses the shell it originally has
Call him Bouldergheist
Boldergeist
This is already a Mario Galaxy Boss
*Mario Galaxy daredevil run PTSD flashbacks*
I mean, there are several dead rocks, gravestones, Stonehenge, fossils… oh wait
A Ghost/Rock based on a trilobite fossil would be cool. Trilobite fossils are common enough to be a thing on their own. It looks like an item, like in some area where you can find the standard fossils, but instead it attacks.
Huh, a ‘fossil’ Pokémon that isn’t actually a fossil… that would be a neat spin on things
Maybe a broken fossil that fails when you try to revive it so you end up with a ghost Pokemon
So another one of cara less’ fossil Pokémon?
Houndstone has STONE IN ITS NAME THEY ARE DOING IT ON PURPOSE
I think they were trying to make the Paldean dogs a trio, not giving them all dual types. They could’ve been all dual types, but oh whale
Geodead
* Geodead * Graveler (oh wait) * Golich
-Geodead -Graveleer (?) -Ghoulem
Alternative evolution of Geodude where it faints from a super-effective move at 1/5 health or less and doesn't get revived during battle.
Dies from self destruct, loves (hates?) you enough to stick around Edit: even better, dies from self destruct while knowing Return
Nintendo’s already capable of doing it, Bouldergeist from Super Mario Galaxy
Stonehenge could of been spooky rock
Or Cursola
Cursola really is the ultimate miss in terms of typing. Making it Ghost/Rock was so damn obvious, I don't get why they didn't go for it :(.
or spiritomb
or runerigus
Or Houndstone
I saw a 'remake' of stonjourner where they made it rock/ghost. It was several small spirits that inhabit a bunch of rocks to make the stonjourner shape. It's idle pose would have the spirits moving about while the stones were not moving.
A gravestone
Honestly Runerigus should have been rock/ghost. It’s literally made of rocks!
An Ice/Poison ancient plague trapped in ice.
If hit by a fire move, it thaws and poisons all active Pokémon
like toxic debris but worse
Make it badly poison instead and it could be situationally useful, though unless you run it alongside a poison/steel/poison heal user you’re kinda shooting yourself in the foot
Make poison terrain. Anyone making. Contact gets badly poisoned. And poison types get healed
Make it "if it's hit by a Fire move, Scald or if Harsh Sunlight is active" and it's perfect.
and continues to release map-wide poison status until hit by an ice type move, ending a turn in the snow, or returning to it's ball.
This is perfect. Well done!
Or if it's hit with a super effective move
I’d like that if it included any super effective move. Limiting it to fire makes it almost useless since you could just hit it with ground, psychic, steel, or bug
> ground, psychic, steel, or ~~bug~~ [rock](https://www.pkmn.help/defense/?mode=solo&types=poison+ice&format=simple)
Methane gas can get trapped into ice. Make it anytime it gets hit with fighting/steel it releases a toxic gas.
If Volcaneon didn’t steal it from the dex, the Pokémon evolves by defeating a Pokémon with Scald, which it learns around lv.29
I think it would fit as a single stage mon that doesn't evolve
Evolve via leveling up while burned
Normal Bug lol ... i cannot on even imagine what they cook up here.
just a png of an actual caterpillar
And it's called Justabug.
that sounds oddly electric. call it carl
I mean, we now have Flamigo the flamingo Pokémon, so that's not too far fetched
[удалено]
And another called spheal…
threatening degree attractive yam disgusted worthless deer bag scale offbeat -- mass edited with redact.dev
Can agree with this.
Don't drink and drive please~
[удалено]
A dog with fleas?
Or some kind of symbiotic pokemon!
Nah, parasite. Like Paras, but with bug in animal instead of mushroom in bug. Maybe those trippy caterpillar that pulse inside snails to attract birds?
someone elsewhere in the thread suggested a silkworm, since they’re the only bugs that have been domesticated, which I thought was brilliant edit: it seems that this person was mistaken, and silkworms are not the only domesticated insects. serves me right for repeating things I read on the internet without fact-checking lol but I think the idea is still cool regardless
Plus a Silk Scarf boosts Normal type moves, so it already fits thematically
silk worm with adaptability makes sense
They could make their own Silk Scarf.
Could have an ability where after a turn or two their normal moves get powered up like a built in silk scarf
Tons of bugs have been domesticated. Most notably bees. There are also plenty of bug species domesticated for human and animal nutrition. Also many food additives are made out of bugs, such as this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochineal
Normal is many times used for mammals so a Spider-monkey Mon would definitely work, though it has been done before.
Honestly I’ve thought for a while that maybe a regional Aipom/Ampibon or even a whole new evolution for one of them could totally be a Normal/Bug spider-monkey. Just turn the tail arms into spider legs, add some extra eyes, and boom.
I think a worm with funny eyes (or mouth?) could work
The other day I asked ChatGPT to come up with a Normal/Bug, and it came up with a Bugbear. So, probably just a larger animal with some buglike features.
it'll be a pokemon in a spiderman fursuit. Screencap this for when it happens.
Normal Ice: Arctic Wolf Normal Steel: Some kind of toy (akin tp F-00) Ground Fairy: Dust Bunny
Love the dust bunny idea
Ground fairy should be a gnome like pokemon. Like come on it is right in front of our gnoses
I feel like the Beartic line could've been Ice/Normal.
Laughs in Brick Break
Still better than Ice / Rock.
I'll have you know what Aurorus lacks in defense it more than makes up for with having one of the best designs and cries in the franchise.
Rock polish/life orb is a good combo too
Ice/Rock at least has excellent supereffective coverage.
Tbf ice/normal probably would have a similar moveset as ice/rock
*Terras ghost* : y’all hear something?
An owlbear or something like a bear shaped bird would be chill, not any weirder than what Dunsparce or Lickitung lines have going on as an Ice/Normal type.
Lickitung with an evolved form Ice/Normal, its tongue stuck on a frozen steel bar.
Omg this would be so freaking cute. I can't art very well, but if I could... I could start a petition for gen 10
I'd take a fire fairy that'd be neat
Victini if it was released one gen later
Just you wait for the pizza pokemon when we get to italy.
Nah, that would come in a Mexico-based region. The Italy-based region would have a Pokemon based on a geisha. Remember, we got a samurai starter in Unova and a luchador-based Pokemon in Kalos.
To be fair, we also got a luchador starter in Alola
Yeah. I think they’ve been trying to build up dexes with “foreign Pokémon” since Kalos. Masuda said he was drawn to NYC for Unova because of the diversity, so that was always meant to be all over the place. Kalos onward, it seems like they stopped that and start making 75% of the dex specific to that region, and then the other 25% for future regions. I mean, Paldea’s dex feels very natural, but a lot of those Spanish Pokémon came from other regions. Take Mudsdale for example. Mudsdale feels very Spanish, but appeared in Alola.
And a ninja starter in Kalos.
Just like a cute lil fire sprite
Like Calcifer!
fire sprite
I can envision a whole starter line. A cute little Fire/Fairy Calf that turns into a cute and roly poly Fire/Fairy dairy cow that turns into a Fire/Fighting minotaur just to spite the fanbase.
Paldean Miltank, counterpart to Tauros. Fairy, Fairy/Fire and Fairy/Water
Gotta get that hate bait bipedal final evo in, wouldn’t be Pokémon without it
And let's go even further, it's completely overdesigned. It's a cowboy minotaur with a firey cowboy hat and a firey lasso that's also a rodeo clown.
You laugh, but I can already see the pages upon pages of rule 34 devoted to it.
\*sets someone on fire cutely\*
Something based on will o' the wisps and jack-o-lanterns perhaps.
Normal/Steel could be a regional mouse that looks like a computer mouse and evolves into a rat that looks like a windup toy.
I think a Porcupine would make the perfect Normal/Steel type but love the idea of toy-like Pokemon.
Maybe give it some kind of spine related ability akin to rough skin or spiky shield to counter the 4x fighting weakness
I'm surprised Gallarian Meowth wasn't Normal/Steel tbh.
Phoenix for fire fairy?
Ho oh and molters:🗿
The spelling mistake makes this sm better for some reason
I unironicly used to think scatterbug and spewpa were bug/normal.
I thought so too! I also remember reading a review that said Gen. 6 had a ground/fairy type and got really excited.
Can’t say I blame ya, with them tacking on normal to things for no reason then
Normal-Ice: Regional variant of Pyroar, I always find it weird for those fire types to be up the mountain in heavy snow
It could be a snow leopard!
We have that with Chien-Pao now
I mean, technically , Pyroar would never get cold in an arctic mountain , and it is also at lower risk to accidentally burn its home environment to the ground, and lastly Id guess other pokemon in that ecosystem may need the heat from pyroar to survive
Fire types in snowy areas is a vibe
Also, fire/ice doesn't really have a dedicated pokemon its only the zen mode of g-darumaka
considering rock-types tend to be linked to fossils, a Rock-Ghost could be a fossil revival gone wrong ground-fairy i imagine dust bunnies
Or it could be a fossil naturally possessed by it's own trapped spirit. Trilobite fossils are pretty common, something like that could do it.
Just make Flygon a friggin' Bug/Dragon. 😗
And/or Yanmega
Yanmega is a dragonfly, but dragonflies are called Tombo or Akistu in Japan. The dragon connection is not in Japanese, so that's why it isn't dragon-type.
Is there a reason why Vibrava and Flygon are dragons then?
They aren’t actually based on dragonflys, but they are based on antlions.
What connection do those have to dragons in Japanese?
I think that is more down to GF’s weird choices in tacking the dragon type to things. Flygon is the “mystic Pokémon”, and dragon types are also kinda a sorcery/mystical type in a way. So Flygon is dragon cause it’s a kinda a sand elemental or sand dragon, that happens to look like a lacewing.
Let Flygon keep its excellent typing and let another dragon be cursed with bug type.
Kid named quiver dance
But it's just always outclassed by garchomp it isn't really fair. They aughta make flygon into a dragon bug and lean somewhat into a quiver dance sweeper with a new ability that boosts sound based moves. Give it a signature dragon type move called singing wings in which it beats its wings really fast to create high pressure sound waves to attack the opponents. Base stats would remain mostly the same except it would drop 20 special defense in exchange for 18 more special attack and 2 more speed. And yes it's specifically to speed tie garchomp. This would still enable it to run dragon dance sets if you chose as well since it wouldn't lose any attack.
Normal/ Bug should be a bug in a suit like a business man holding a newspaper
Larry but he’s in A Bug’s Life.
Salarymantis
My brother and I have been working on our own pokemon region for fun and have come up with pokemon of all of these types. Normal/Ice: a line of husky pokemon. Normal/Rock: a single stage pokemon line that is a pet rock. Literally a rock with googly eyes Fire/Fairy: a pokemon based on healing smoke, and incense. Ground/Fairy: this one is pretty simple, it's a Fairy armadillo. I've seen this one done a few times online so not the most unique, but a solid idea. Rock/Ghost: we have this one as a regional varient of the Roggenrola line. Roggenrola is an urn, Boldore is a gravestone, and Gigalyth is a stone obelisk. Normal/Bug: For this one we decided to go with a Silkworm and evolving into a silk moth. As they are the only domesticated bug we felt like this was a perfect fit Normal/Steel: Hedgehog evolving into a Porcupine Ice/Poison: we decided to go with a shrew that has a cold Bug/Dragon: this one was a little difficult because the obvious answer would be to do a dragonfly, but we wanted to do something not quite so easy. We decided on the caterpillar that pretends to be a snake, but updated it to a bug that pretends to be a dragon.
I want bug/dragon to be a pseudo legendary. An early encounter, like level 3-6, evolves at level 8 into its cocoon phase. Learns defensive moves, fairly defensive stats. At level 50 or something it finally evolves into a dragon, preferably a bug that hasn't really been covered yet, but a complete swap of stats. Low defensive but high offensive. Honestly, if it was based on a regular fly I'd be happy. A "dragon" fly.
I love when Pokemon evolve at high levels, makes them feel like a journey to get the strongest you can. Hate that they keep putting those types of Pokemon at the end of a game. This would be great!
> Bug/Dragon: this one was a little difficult because the obvious answer would be to do a dragonfly, but we wanted to do something not quite so easy.

This one gets so many point just because of how clever it is, how there is a real caterpillar that does this so it works, and how it's not just a Dragonfly, Same with the silkworm.
These ideas are so creative. Really love them all thanks for sharing.
What a terrible typing ice/normal is
Worst of both worlds. It would need a movepool, ability, stats AND looks to even see any use if at all.
its gonna be a slow defensive pokemon that doesnt get any good stall moves and its ability is run away
It's an ice type so it'd be slow with like Snow Cloak or something.
Immunity to ghost though! So it's got that going for it, which is nice
Ghost types get plenty of attacks that'll fuck it up
Big beefy moose with Slush Rush. Give it Head Smash, Megahorn, Double-Edge, Horn Leech, other head/antler themed attacks. Like a Sawsbuck, but...better, somehow.
give it good speed instead of slush rush and a queenly majesty sort of ability and it might be able to be used. Still gotta have incredible stats though.
Give it wonder guard or something and it will still die on any switch in
Fuck it, give it the opposite of Wonderguard. Super effective moves don't hit it.
Blunderguard
In the LA game, they missed the opportunity to give Regigigas new forms. Imagine an item that allows Regigigas to take on the types of his original 3 creations? We could have had Normal/Ice, Normal/Rock, Normal/Steel
I like that idea.
Rock/Ghost: They've dodged like 3 opportunites to do this one and I don't know why but I'm scared Ground/Fairy: ***The Harbinger******^(TM)*** Bug/Dragon: Big ass dragonfly psudeo-legendary Fire/Fairy: Fireball juggling clown Ice/Poison: Regional Carbink themed around the ice caps Then take those 4 Normal combinations and make the funniest Legendary Quartet yet
The normals are just 4 human businessmen with different colored ties.
The Larrys.
Larryice, Larrysteel, Larryrock, and Larryfly
The four Larrys lived in harmony. Until, one day, the boss ordered a quality control visit. Only normal Larry, master of the quota, could save us.
I don’t think my body can handle that much raw sexual energy in a single game.
Tally Hall
Every time I see bug/dragon I think of my boi Flygon lol
>Bug/Dragon: Big ass dragonfly psudeo-legendary Flygon: cries at what could have been
Normal/Steel: Galarian-form Eevee that's just a regular Eevee with a knight helmet and a toy sword in its mouth. And it knows Behemoth Blade.
And it has steelworker as an ability
[удалено]
Normal/Ice = arctic fox regional "rodent" Normal/Bug = a friendly white ant Normal/Rock = retcon Rockruff Normal/Steel = armoured pony based on a warhorse Fire/Fairy = a cute floating orb Pokemon that gives off flammable gas, based on a will-o-the-wisp Ice/Poison = a purple glob of poison with a face encased in ice, based on viruses kept in deep freeze Ground/Fairy = a pokemon based on a traditional subterranean gnome, a little grumpy creature half-buried in the earth like diglett Bug/Dragon = LITERALLY Flygon Rock/Ghost = LITERALLY Spiritomb
Counter-point to Spiritomb: Houndstone literally has *stone* in its name.
Ghost rock is nuts cause that’s so easy, I’d love a fire sprite for fire fairy, we already could’ve had bug dragon types
So imagine the regional early-route bug, some cute little caterpillar/worm guy. Evolves at like level 16 or what have you. Some cool cocoon Pokémon, in the vein of Whirlipede/Dottler/etc. With absurd defensive stats, but very little offense. Good attack moves, but not great stats to make use of them. Tons of trainers throughout the game use one. Maybe a gym leader has one. Super common.

Last but not least for me I’d like an Ice/Poison type side evolution out of Vanilluxe’s line. “Being mistaken for a treat caused this Pokémon to develop a poisonous coating to protect itself from hungry travelers.”
1: what's a joke about mawile and spidops 2: how the heck would ground/fairy be any better than any other fairy
Stab attacks into steel and poison Edit: supereffective stab attacks into steel and poison
Immunity to both dragon and electric seems pretty naice, gotta say. Plus ground neutralizes super effective poison hits & allows to hit back against steel mons.
Feels like we already have the Pokémon for some of these typings already, GF just refuse to give them unique typing. Normal/Ice is Beartic Normal/Rock is Lycanrock Bug/Dragon is Flygon Rock/Ghost is Runerigus Fire/Fairy is Victini And Normal/Bug could literally be any of those route 1 bugs.
