XY Evolution ideas for what we've seen so far?

Snubbull, Granbull, Houndour Houndoom- all 2nd gen dogs

Poochyena, Mightyena, Electrike, Manectric- 3rd gen dogs

Vulpix, Ninetales, Eevee, Flareon, Vaporeon, Jolteon- 1st gen foxes

Joltik, Karrablast- 5th gen ticks

Now, of course, I say some of these very loosely, but I just wanted to point this out.

I want with all my heart for Skrelp to evolve. I don't want a kraken evolution, though. It just doesn't fit it. I would love a Kraken. Just not a Skrelp evolution.


There is just one problem about Poochyena and Mightyena being dogs. They are actually more Hyena than they are dogs, this is my first post but I thought I should point that out. In fact they are hyenas with dog like characteristics.
You're right but he did say loosely so I think he's aware of them not being correct dogs, they are hyenas but their designs are more canine.

To be fair there are people who have mistaken hyenas to be dogs. I even though hyenas were dogs when I was younger. I would love to see a more hyena like evolution for them.

Also for the new lion pokemon I would love it to have more lion like gender differences such as a mane for the males and no mane for females amongst it and its evolutions. Luxray should have done that but it didn't.

Also . . . Brown hyena cub/pup

and Poochyena

Still needs a more hyena like evolution though.
 
With the new reveals, I can see other Pokemon with evos/pre evos.

Fletchling - ? - Talonflame: I first thought that Talonflame was a stage 1 and it was the final evolutions. I decided to look for height and weight of the early birds and its weight resembles more that of Staraptor and Unfezant than that of Peliper, Tailow and Fearow while matching the height of all of them but Tailow (smaller) and Pidgeot. It can still be a stage 1 instead of a stage 2 though. It would probably make the change into fire in its stage 1 (if Talonflame is a stage 2) making it bigger with better wings and bigger legs.

? - Noivern: I expect it to be a stage 1 or maybe basic (it doesn't look like it would have 2 pre evos or an evo). It would have big ears and be Flying/Normal (because they don't move the flying into second place ever and I don't think it would stay as Dragon).

Clauncher - ?: Monstrous crab with a big cannon. Probably Water/Steel with it having moves such as flash cannon.

Skrelp - ?: I believe that the blue thing in its back similar to the fins will change somehow. I will have more of those legs (like 5) and the nose will become curved.

Flabébé: I would expect for it to be a gimmicky Pokemon that may have something to do with the seasons (flower changing) but it will stay with the same flower (if you catch it in spring, it'll have the spring flower even in winter or summer). It could have some other gimmick. It can still evolve and have it mix with the flower (even though I don't want it and I believe it will stay as gimmicky Pokemon).

Litleo - ? - ?: I liked the idea of a chimera but it might as well just evolve into a big badass lion similar to Luxray.

I hope it goes either Manticore, Chimera, or Lion but if it goes Lion similar to Luxray I hope the gender differences are more visible (i.e the male has a mane and the female does not)
 
Chespin - I like the idea of it becoming a larger hedgehog, but I like the idea of it becoming more knight-like aswell.

Fennekin - Most likely a kitsune, but I kind of want a kitsune along the lines of Kyuubimon (Yes I know it's similar to ninetales) I really have no clue because there are so many options.

Froakie - Most likely a Goemon-esque ninja. It's "bubbles" are also burglar-like.

Panchum - I like the idea of a fighting panda. c'B

Helioptile - Definitely some kind of electric dinosaur would be cool.

Fletchling, Talonblaze - A Phoenix hopefully.

Flabebe - It is clearly based off of an Alraune/Plant Girl, and it's entry stating it bonds with a flower for life, hints at this further. I expect a Succubus to match (Yes I know we have Froslass but considering Flabebe is also succubus-based I can see a traditional succubus appearing. Not just a Japanese One c'B ) Though it also has some Valkyrie features, so perhaps a Valkyrie/Alraune mix.

Litleo - Judging by the Scorpion tail, either a Manticore or Chimera. Similar anyway. I would really love to have either because that is a Pokemon I've wanted in the past couple of years. Even had a chimera fakemon my friend thought up as an OC. SO HERE'S HOPING FOR EITHER~ <3

Noivern - I can't see this evolving, but rather have a pre-evolution or just be strong on it's own. I had a theory that if we do get a Nidhoggr based Pokemon, it would be the equivalent to Cryogonal and Kyurem in the anime. Noivern being a minion from Hell of sorts.

That's what I see too. An incomplete design that is practically screaming "LET ME EVOLVE".
However, because of the flower it holds onto constantly, I don't see it staying single typed.
Granted, yes, we are probably going to see a lot of Pokemon re-typed into Grass/Fairy, or vice versa, but I don't see the harm in this one falling into that pool.
After all, there is bound to be a lot of fairy type Pokemon this generation.
And before anybody says something that has to do with the second generation's inclusion of Dark and Steel, and how there was only a few introduced then, that may be true, however, this is a brand new, HUGE development in Pokemon, and, despite normally only getting between 100-110 Pokemon in even numbered generations, they are certainly breaking a lot of traditions and implementing a lot of new mechanics in this generation.
With the introduction of the Fairy type, I could honestly see as many as 130 new Pokemon this go around.
Which would be fantastic.

I actually had an idea where it could evolve to be fairy/ flying with flower accents instead of gaining the grass-type. Like how Lugia isn't part water-type (I wish it was:().

I also hope we get a large overhaul of fairy-types, like 30-35 individual fairy-type pokemon to help it compete with the other 600+ types of pokemon out there. I hope the number of new pokemon is somewhere between 125-140, 150 might be too much though.
That was actually the only other choice that I could possibly see it becoming.
Fairy/Flying. Because the ears could help it fly if they developed enough through evolution.
I do as well. We need at least 30 Fairy types to be able to combat with the other types.
I don't think we'll see as many as 140 new Pokemon this generation, more like 120-130, but really, we won't know until more information is confirmed. :p

All these ideas are exactly what I would think too, Clauncher in my mind would look more shrimp than crab though. Also I had an evo name idea: Crustocean lol

I don't really want a manticoremon or at least I'll take one without wings, I just don't like how it looks in my mind.

Flabebe is based on this,most SFW one I could find atm

Litleo has a scorpion stinger, yup. LOL.
 
I don't think there's any similarity between Flabebe and an Alraune...totally ordinary, traditional "fairies" have long been associated with flowers, said to live in them, create them and/or protect them. I think that's all they're reference, and just that it's a cute concept.

The word "alraune" is just another term for mandrake, and the image of an alraune as an attractive plant-lady doesn't appear in mythology at all; it was actually invented by the Megami Tensei video game series in the 1980's, then imitated by countless other fantasy RPG's, manga and anime. Lilligant is already the closest Pokemon might ever come to borrowing the trope, though you never know.

You guys must be seeing something that I'm not. When I look at Litleo's tail all I see is a tail. I mean, the tip is shaped like a flame, but it's a fire-type, so that makes sense. I could be wrong, but it doesn't strike me as a stinger. Just flame-like. Compare it to Pansear's tuft. I mean, it's not completely unlike a stinger but I just don't think it is.

Pokemon seems to be adapting usual RPG monsters now regardless though c'B
I don't know how you can't see the relation XD

Also as for Lilligant, I thought it was at first, but it isn't.

I'm glad somebody said this, it's not a stinger. That's just what lion tails look like.
 
Yeah, while I wouldn't put it past them to suddenly spring a manticore, the tail looks as much like any stylized "tuft" or a little flame as it does a stylized "sting."

Because, like I said, fairies in general have always had flower relation, especially little fairies clinging to and living in flowers, that's nothing particular to an "Alraune" :p
 
Gogoat doesn't seem to have another evolutionary stage, like Torkoal.

Helioptile is likely to evolve into a more ferocious dinossaur (or reptile).

About the starters, I'm hoping that their secondary types will be fighting, psychic and dark.
 
I dont get a few things.
Where does it say that Talonflame is the final evolution of Fletchling?
And I am with the Litleo's tail being a flame and not a stinger, but I would not mind it being a Fire/Poison type Manticore of awesomeness.

it "bonds" with the flower for life.
hence
Why I say alraune because it's most likely gonna be part of it's next stage .3. Plus that rumored Draining Kiss move fits perfectly.
This is just our thoughts, not an argument on trying to rip apart someone's view by the way. :/ I've made my solid points.

In an image of the pokedex, theres 2 blank spaces after Fletchling. The pokemon after these 2 spaces is said to be pidgey. Also, fletchling -> talonflame has an insanely abrupt design change. Adorabu tiny robin to badass hawk/falcon gonna-rip-your-face-off firebird thing.


On a semi related note, I redrew my speculation mid-evo for Fletchling, now including the other 2 for style comparison and all that. These were made without reference so some things may be off ^^'

It says evolved for here: http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/other_pokemon/ (You have to scroll down to talonflame), but not final evolved.

Yeah, not like abrupt changes have not happened before right?

I could have used Magikarp but I remembered there is a reason for that one.

Also Dewott to Samurott, yeah . . . an otter that evolved from an otter that turns into a sea lion . . .

I can totally see Fletchling abruptly turning into a hawk/falcon thing.
