Who thinks it would be interesting if they could somehow combine Pokemon and Yugioh in an exclusive set. Like team them up in some cards. Would be pretty cool.
Pokemon/Yugioh Crossover

I think it would be kind of neat too start with a Red Eyes Black Chick (baby fire/dragon Pokemon) evolve it to Red Eyes Black Dragon (basic fire/dragon with baby) and then be able to evolve it to either Red Eyes Black Metal Dragon (stage 1 dragon/steel) or Red Eyes Darkness Dragon (stage 1 dark/dragon). Maybe even have Red Eyes Black Dragon mega evolve to Black Skull Dragon (again dark/dragon). Thing is I don't think all Yugioh monsters would mesh quiet so well as this one, I mean humanoid monsters like Celctic Guardian or Dark Magician for example. Spells and Traps too are a bit of an oddity, I mean one could argue that some of them could be worked out as trainers but not all of them.
Flip side, some Pokemon could be made into cards. Evolution could be handled as special card text on the Pokemon or a spell card. I mean Blastoise and it's evolution line would be a perfect water element/aqua type. Maybe when a Squirtle destroys a monster and sends it to the graveyard you can search for Wartortle and replace the two cards. Then the same thing happens for Wartortle to get to Blastoise. A spell card could be used to mega evolve to Mega Blastoise. In some ways a general spell card (mega stone) would make things easier to do it but thematically individual spell cards for each mega stone would be better. Don't see much room for any other types aside from special monsters here though. No fusions, no rituals, no exceeds, no overlaying, no...whatever it is pendulum monsters are considered. At least not without completley altering the Pokemon world.
On paper it does sound interesting. The thing is, I think meshing them would be much more difficult in reality. Forget for the moment how successful it would be for Konami/TPCi as two different businesses. Just making the cards work for rather different formats would be a challenge that in some areas might not possible to mesh.

I mean just take some of the monsters from Yugioh and put them into pokemon cards. Have Charizard And Blue Eyes White Dragon on a card flying around together or Blastoise and something of the sort together. Or make baby dragon and thousand dragon an evolution. I dont know specifinally what they would do to mesh them but it was just an interesting idea.
In some ways it would work, like the description I gave for the Red Eyes Black Dragon line above it. Blue Eyes too could have some kind of similar line I think. Same with Stardust Dragon, Red Archfiend Dragon, Cyber Dragon, and Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon. Those kinds of monsters would have more multi evolutionary lines than any Pokemon before it. The Monarchs could serve a similar function to the Regis and I think there are mega Monarchs...which become their mega evolutions. I think alot of the bigger cards, like Chaos Emporer Dragon Envoy of the End and of course the god cards and their equivalents(like the wicked beasts and the avatars) would have to be the equivalent of a basic legendary Pokemon, also possibly Dark/Dragon. If there was a way to distinguish them I could see some kind of 'myth' built up around Harpie Girl and her ability to evolve into one of several Harpie Ladies a la Rotom (there are like six; original, sisters, 1, 2, 3, and Queen as far as I know) and it's further built up by the Harpie's Pet Dragon on some form. That's a new Pokemon movie right there.
Definently has interesting potential.

That would truly be insane!
