Pokemon What if Pokémon Had Different Evolutionary Lines and Types?

[Blob55]

What if male Combee evolved into Beedrill? What if Venonat really DID evolve into Butterfree? I also have ideas for what-if evolutions and Pokédex Entries.

What if Bagon didn't want to fly?

Dragon
Bagon, the Rock Head Pokémon. This Pokémon constantly falls off cliffs and headbutts rocks below, to improve the sturdiness of its skull.

Dragon/Rock
Shelgon, the Endurance Pokémon. In a journey to increase its resilience, Bagon evolve into Shelgon. The shell is very hard and bounces off enemy attacks.

Dragon/Rock
Lithigon, the Compressed Pokémon. This Pokémon has the power to destroy Mountains and is well known for being the sturdiest of all Dragon Types.

In case you're wondering about how Shelgon evolved into a Pokémon with Red spikes, the red-orange stripes on its legs expand into the spikes covering Lilithgon's body.

I think if the Bagon line were to eventually become Gigalith, then Rock would be a more fitting first type (ie Bagon is Rock, then becomes Rock/Dragon), as the rocky aspect is more prominent and the Dragon seems more of an on-the-side thing.

One thing I though up:

- Water

- Water

- Water/Fairy

sea serpents rule, this is less of a gyara counterpart as its own individual thing.

One other thing I though of, would be that there would a supercocoon Pokemon that could evolve into: Butterfree with a pollen item, Beedrill with a stinger item, Dustox with a powder item and Beautifly with a nectar item.
(I deliberately left out Vivillon as the whole different region-different pattern thing sets it apart, and Volcarona because thats more of a sacred, powerful Pokemon as opposed to a weak earlygame bug)

 

[steffenka]

I really like both of your ideas
Larvitar and Pupitar has always looked kinda bug'ish to me, so I thought I'd do "my own" Larvitar line:

- Bug/Rock

- Bug/Rock

- Bug/Dragon
Or

- Bug/Dragon or Rock

And hostile fishies:

- Water/Dark or Dragon

- Water/Dark or Dragon

Not sure what type suits them best so I just put both types there

 

[TrainerSivan]

I wouldn't mind:

Pachirisu --> Emolga

Dedenne --> Raichu

Luvdisc --> Alohamola

Cacnea --> Maractus --> Cacturne OR Cacnea --> Canevine

What about Venomoth and Masquerain?

Don't forget Mothim (despite being male-only) and Vespiquen!

I'm imagining Lilithgon's being more like Golem!

they're not really the sort of earlygame 3 stage bug which is what the 4 I put are like.
I think Mothim might not be the right thing... considering its male only it would only make sense to have a 100% female other butterfly/moth counterpart with it... which we don't have yet.

(the only other Pokemon that fill that 'criteria' are Scolipede and Leavanny... but they don't fit because they're based on different bugs entirely... they're more 'exotic' in the fact that you're more likely not to see one if you take a casual stroll in the garden without actually looking for them)

I think the whole male Combee -> Beedrill thing isn't actually that logical... Beedrill is more of a wasp/hornet and it would make sense for Combee to get a brand new worker bee evolution as opposed to a wasp/hornet that doesn't make too much sense for it to become.

Don't forget Mothim (despite being male-only) and Vespiquen!

But they don't evolve from cocoon-like Pokemon, except for maybe Burmy but it is a Bagworm which means Forretress then also should be in that super bug evolution thing.

Edit: Goominess came first

Edit 2:

Other lines I thought of, could be:

- Chikorita - Grass - A sweet aroma gently wafts from the leaf on its head. It is docile and loves to soak up the sun's rays

- Bayleef - Grass - A sweet aroma emanates from around its neck. The aroma acts as a stimulant to restore health.

- Tropius - Grass/Flying - It flies by flapping its broad leaves and gives the sweet, delicious fruit around its neck to children.
Abilities: Overgrow - Harvest (HA)

It makes more sense than Remoraid -> Octillery.

Remoraid = revolver, Octillery = cannon
they're like the firearms of the sea xD

one more, which I'm really surprised hasn't been posted yet

- Water

- Water

 

[steffenka]

Isn't it oysters that makes pearls? 'Cause in that case Clamperl and Cloyster could be a new Bivalve line:

Water/Steel

Water/Steel

Also it's on purpose I use some of the shiny sprites, as I think it matches the "new line" better

Luvdisc could also be used with Gorebyss, as they look kinda similar:

Water

Water(/Psychic)

Not sure about Huntail though, maybe with Remoraid?

Water

Water(/Dark)

 

[Leaf_Ranger]

We can also have:

 

[Reggie McGigas]

This has to be one of my favorite threads. Maybe we could make a Pokedex out of it?

Squirtle

Basic Pokemon
Water
Ability: Torrent (HA: Rain Dish)
Shoots water at prey while in the water. Withdraws into its shell when in danger.

Wartortle

Evolves from Squirtle at level 16
Water/Rock
Ability: Torrent (HA: Rain Dish)
Its shell is hard as rock. It is known to have great defensive stats.

Tortofence

Evolves from Wartortle at level 36
Water/Rock
Ability: Torrent (HA: Solid Rock)
Its shell is made of compressed rock. Any fire attack is harmless to it because of this.​

Why aren't we using the new sprites?

That Luvdisc evolving into Gorebyss I could legitimately see; they look scarily alike. If only...

I think Water/Rock would make more sense, as the shells look more like Rock than Steel.

Anyone can use any sprites they want to. I prefer using Gen 4 and 5 sprites personally.

I like the older sprites more than the newer, I guess

I like the idea with a PokeDex

I wasn't too sure on what types they shoud be, as I think Clamperl's shell looks more like Steel, but I agree with you that Cloyster's shell looks more rocky. I also think it would be kinda weird if it's typing went from Water/Steel to Water/Rock, as Cloyster then would gain a 4x weakness to Grass, and Clamperl would have a lot more resistances, and would only take neutral damage from Grass, and be immune to Poison.

Also is it Lithigon or Lilithgon? It says both so I'm confused.. ^^'

 

[Reggie McGigas]

I guess I was a little surprised you guys weren't using the newer sprites. Oh well

I love this thread. Should we make our own fakedex of sorts from this?

Amaura

Basic Pokémon
Ice
Ability: Refrigerate (HA: Skill Link)
This Pokémon ju​

It's supposed to be Lithigon. I keep on reading it as Lilithgon, hence the typo.

Or a mod. There are loads of game mods out there.
