XY Will we be getting new evolutions?

I can kind of see Golurk getting a Big Ben inspired evolution. Kinda like a giant clock tower.. "Clocklurk"

But sadly, hardly anyone else would. He's not a clock, he's a golem, so was his prevo. I'd see him getting a bigger evolution, with beefier defense and hp stats.

There are two Dratini statues in the entrance of the same place. I'd like to see it happen, but I don't think it means Dragonair will be getting an alternative evolution

*facepalm*

What it means is that it doesn't bother them if there are 2 frog-pokemon in the same region.

This thread is to discuss whether we're getting new evolutions for old pokémon or not (in the case, Palpitoad), not if they'll be available in the game or not. I said Palpitoad getting a new evo is pointless, not that it being in the game is, even because is quite obvious it will be because of the statue.

And you were saying it wouldn't BECAUSE there's already other frog Pokemon. Which is faulty logic. The existence of other frog Pokemon in the dex proves absolutely nothing.

I'd rather they not shove those annoying things down our throats again.

Yes, sorry I'm wrong. I thought for the starters being more notable pokémon they wouldn't introduce new pokémon based on the same animal. But it has happened before, like Ambipom and Chimchar's chain
 
Nobody ever said Palpitoad has to evolve in another toad/frog? GameFreak has done some pretty weird evolutions, perhaps a salamander-like thing? Who knows.. It wouldn't bother me though, despite Poliwhirl got a second evolution as well.. Possibly because Palpitoad looks person anyway, perhaps they can make something better out of it? I don't know haha..
 
I actually like some Sawk/Throh Evolutions. I also like how nobody can imagine what the evolutions of older ones will be in gen 6, then when revealed, we're all 'Ohhhhhh! Makes more sense! I should've thought of that!'

Also, the Palpitoad line is closer to Quagsire than it is to Poliwhirl. Just saying.

What? The Palpitoad line is like the Gen V version of the Poliwag line (minus Politoed), hence why I suggested Palpitoad could get a split evo. The first of both families are tadpoles and both families are based on the life cycle of toads...

Wooper and Quagsire are salamanders...

Species is just about the only thing they have in common, their typing, stats, movesets, and abilities are more reminiscent of the Quagsire line.

Or the Gastrodon line... or the Swampert line...
I think being based on the same species is more important than the typing (which really only differs in the fact that the Seismitoad line turns part Ground and Poliwrath is part Fighting, they're all Water-types)... But if you want to compare the lines in terms of stats and abilites (and even movesets to some extent), they are actually quite similar... both share Water Absorb and Swift Swim (either as normal or hidden abilites) and the main differences in stats is 1) Poliwag and Poliwhirl are fast and 2) Poliwrath is more defensive while Seismitoad is more offensive...

btw, Quagsire's stats are not similar at all to the Palpitoad line, not even remotely similar...

What evolution do you NOT want the most? The 3 monkeys from BW do not count.

I must be the only one who doesn't want an eevee of every type.

They all look alike to me and the way everyone fawns over them gets old.
 
Eh, Eevees are practically mascots on par with Pikachu in terms of fan popularity, I doubt they'd /not/ make new ones after skipping a generation to appease fans. I just hope that if they do make them they'll have reasonable evolution methods instead of "level up around this one rock". It might just be me but I thought a lot of those location-related evolutions in Gen 4 were kind of stupid...

That being said, I could see an Audino evolution. Seeing as they're Chansey equivalents and do not have any other stages yet, I could imagine that GF make try to parallel the whole "evolution introduced in next generation" thing. Honestly it wouldn't be that bad if they made the evo distinct enough from Blissey in stats or even moves.
 
If Jynx ever evolves I hope to God it's not into some lame, generically "pretty" Gardevoir-esque nonsense that ruins her entire concept. She should only get fatter and freakier, like some sort of viking ogress.
