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

Personally I love Noivern as a stand-alone. Druddigon was just.... fail. Oversaturated colors + derpy design. Some may like it, and good for them. I'm just saying I think Noivern is awesome :U

We understand but I disagree though, needs a pre evo imo. Also Druddigon was meant to look like that, read its pokedex entry to find out why it has that design (plus its ability is rough skin). It is basically a gargoyle.
 
I'm not against a prevo either, and a prevo would be kinda cute on this mon. I'm not even saying i prefer it to be a stand-alone, that's just what it seems like to me.
 
I prefer Noivern as a stand-alone as well. Remember when Braviary was revealed and everyone thought it was going to be a stand-alone like Skarmory?
 
I would expect Noivern to be a stand alone, but one that you don't get until later, perhaps in Victory Road?

Chespin-- Grass/Dark upon final evolution
Fennekin-- Fire/Psychic upon final evolution
Froakie-- Water/Fighting upon final evolution. I am SO hoping for the reverse circle in secondary typing for these guys.
Fletchling-(normal/flying)-Talonflame
Pancham-Pangoro (I do believe all of those rumors)
Skrelp-- I do not think they will change his type to Dragon or anything upon evolution. I think he will only evolve once as well.
Clauncher-- I hope he becomes Water/Electric; much cooler than Lantern. I predict one evo again.
Litleo-- Now I would love the manticore idea, in that case I see it being a three stage family with the final one becoming Fire/Poison or Fire/Dark. I also wouldn't mind if they kept it cute looking and kept the Normal typing
Flabebe-- God I hope it's evolution looks nicer. One evolution I hope.
Gogoat-- I think it will have one or two pre-evolutions. I need to look at that screenshot again.
Helioptile-- I think this Pokemon has beyond massive potential to be a few different types, the most hopeful being dragon. But honestly I wouldn't mind if they kept it cute and derpy looking and part-Normal type. :)
 
I too prefer Noivern as a stand alone. It may get a cuter pre-evolution, but honestly, I hope it doesn't.
Druddigon was not what I was thinking for a gargoyle.

True but its pokedex entry screams gargoyle. I wouldn't mind a pre-evo for it, Nor would I mind an evolution for it either.
 
I imagine that Noivern will have a pre evo that would be Flying/Normal as types don't change place when evolution. That would leave Litleo, Noivern's pre evo and Helioptile all being type/Normal. I could see them all form a trio. Also note that Noivern is Dragon, Helioptile becoming a frilled-neck lizard could be Dragon and Litleo evolving as a Chimera would probably be Dragon too.
 
That would make a lot of new dragon types... even if only the final forms.

When was flying/fire/electric a trio set? ice/water has been the 'thing' in place of flying. They /are/ throwing out the norm, but to replace with flying seems a bit odd. Hmm
 
It wouldn't be much as they would be 1-stage evolution lines and the first one is type/Normal. It would be 3 and they could do just 1 more line (of 1 or 2 Pokemon) and it wouldn't have much as Gen 3 or 5.

Flabebe- huh?

Litleo- ... I just noticed the shape of the tail... /facepalm.

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

Litleo has a scorpion stinger, yup. LOL.

If this is so I hope it's an all female species since a male Alraune would make no sense. Also in the evolution I'd rather it still be holding the flower since although I don't know much about the story I don't think Alraune was actually fused with any flowers from what I learned through Wiki. I really hope it gets an evolution too because I love its design but if it doesn't get an evolution it'll probably be useless.

It doesn't outright say it, but it is definitely implied.
I can sort of see something becoming Noivern, but definitely not Noivern evolving into something.
But then, we all have out own opinions. :)

maybe noivern evolves from a little fruit bat with earbuds?
You have no idea how much I want this right nao.
That would be so cute!

It would be cute
but it would have to be more dragon-looking as Noivern is not actually a fruit bat. (Not primarily anyway )

Actually, Noivern is based almost entirely on a fruit bat. And I can see it's pre-evolution in my mind.
Something small, with a round body, smaller wings for its arms, little feet with claws at the end of them, fur ruffles around its neck, wide eyes, like it's looking for adventure, sharp teeth sticking out of its mouth, perhaps, like a vampire, and ears similar to Noivern's but smaller, obviously, and having less detail. Same coloration. Gah, would be so cute. And would evolve into Noivern around LV. 45.

Noivern is Dragon Type for a reason. I've mentioned it before but Noivern is like Mawile, a misleading disguise.

Noivern is clearly based on a Wyvern, or more specifically a species of Lindworm that takes the guise of a furry flying creature (in most cases, a fruit bat ) I am not saying it isn't based on a Flying Fox/Fruit Bat either, but I am saying that it's a Wyvern primarily, it's Dragon-typing shows this.

Also keep in mind it has part of Wyvern in it's name.
It's name literally means
Noise Wyvern.
 
Why are you so fixated on the idea that Noivern is "mainly" or "primarily" a dragon or wyvern?

We've been over this.

Those phrases don't mean anything.

A "dragon" or "wyvern" isn't a very specific thing to begin with. They are just broad categories of scary, powerful, flying monster. A dragon can still be a mammal, a reptile, a fish, anything you want.

Noivern is a dragon-like bat. Its design and habits are taken entirely from bats, and official sources call it a bat pokemon. That doesn't mean it's any "less" of a dragon.

You're shooting down people's ideas and suggestions based on this silly idea that Noivern "needs" to focus more on the "dragon" aspect, or that everyone needs to keep in mind "dragon" first when they talk about it. They really don't. Altaria is a bird, but also a dragon type. There's nothing wrong with that :p

I don't think you even looked at my post at all. I was merely saying that it is indeed a wyvern meant to look innocently like a fruit bat.
It's name even sets this in stone.

I am not shooting down their idea. I think a cute baby bat/wyvern mix would still be cute for a lower form. There are no official sources that say it's a bat, ontop of that, it's name implies Wyvern. It also attacks prey, not just fruit. It is not a herbivore, it's a carnivore.

You wanna know what's sadder than that argument? The fact that Altaria is primarily Dragon/Flying but Noivern is Flying/Dragon. I'm sorry but that just irks me. I really hope Noivern evolves because it doesn't feel complete. It can be more badass IMO. A pre-evolution would be cool too. Unfortunately, I think it'll be stand-alone.

Litleo is clearly going to evolve at least one. I don't think there's anyone out there who would argue with that.

^I'm gonna regret saying that. I just know it.

They said it resembles a bat in the developer round table at E3.

"Noivern is extremely combative toward anything that wanders too close to it. It flies through even the darkest nights using ultrasonic waves it emits from its ears. This Pokémon loves fruit, and feeding it fruit will keep it calm."

^From Pokemon website.

That says nothing about attacking prey. Where did you get that? (I mean really where did you get that? That's not a rhetorical question, I honestly want more info.) It only talks about defending territory. Also for the record if it eats both meat and plants it's an omnivore. Now as for evidence it's based on a fruit bat. Echo location(even though most fruit bats don't use it), it eats fruit, it looks like a bat(Including an official statement that it looks like a bat). Evidence it's based on a wyvern, its name, its type, its body shape.

I doubt it's based on any Lindworm's since nothing about it's description implies that.
