So werid
I am going to type this as sober as possible. I swear to arceus on me mum that if gf continues making this phag it tree I am going to scrap the fisty cuffs. If they make this garbage again or ever try to I will go crazy and cut me own leg. I am so disappoint. I come from the ghetto with the hard knock mentality buy I swear on me mum this is too ghetto for me. No poke balls were tossed that day. Pls respond
Bonjour! mon nom est Monorpale. x’D
Monorpale looks awesome in it’s sheath, but once it removes it, its…its just a sword, really bland once you remove the sheath, but with it It looks really awesome, hopefully it gets an evolution that wows me
Yes, I would like it to stay with sheath all the time. That makes it epic.
my thoughts exactly 😀
The Sheath really is the best part.
Strange strange design. I can appreciate its’ oddity, but I’m not sure I actually like the design. Though, I’m sure that opinion of mine will change at some point.
Ghost-types are all about the strange an abnormal.
;D
Make an ice cream pokemon EVERYONE HATES IT! make a sword pokemon? OMG THIS IS AWESOME
That ice cream pokemon was just an ice cream. However you can see a creative input in this pokemon. How would anyone think of making a ghost sword pokemon that can take off its scabbard with a hand-like figure that is actually a sword tassel.
It make me think, whoever created the concept for Vanilite was eating food at the time. xD
It would be Ok to have just Vanillite as a standalone Pokemon but they made it 3 staged evolution line. This is too much. Oh God, thinking it again makes my blood sugar drop. I can’t…
I don’t know why people complain about Vanillite. I mean look at Exeggcute from 1st Gen, it was a set of Eggs with mean/smiley faces
Or Voltorb. Nothing will ever be as bad as Voltorb.
Not many people complained. It just turned into an internet joke when people originally thought the idea lacked imagination
To me, an ice cream Pokémon is a bit weird because you can eat ice cream.
A possessed sword Pokémon is pretty cool because, well, it’s a Steel/Ghost-type haunted sword!
Does’t that scream “awesome” to you?
you can eat eggs too
I feel you. The Pokemon fanbase never ceases to amaze me.
Most of the crap people talk about in a pokemon’s design can be applied to another pokemon in a different gen. Just how people work I guess.
See, I disliked Vanilluxe because it was a smiley face on an ice cream cone. There are so many different things you can do with pure Ice and they made a smiling ice cream cone and an angry snow flake.
I like Hexcalibur because it has a nice design, similar to bronzong (one of my bros) and there really isn’t much else you can do with a ghost/steel typing themed in a french-based region. I thought it was a good fit and I’ve always been partial to swords.
Hexcalibur?
Gotta say if you made that up that’s a perfect name for it!
i love it if that’s it’s face on the sheath with two closed eyes and a closed mouth, and that eye on the handle of the sword, and the ribbony thing is like a hand, but if the sheath is just a sheath and it’s just a sword with an eye, then i’m just indifferent really, still like it, but wouldn’t love it so much. maybe it evolves into that knight pokemon that was rumoured?
I’m not sure what to think about this Pokemon. It’s…a sword with an eye, and a arm thing. Idk, I just feel like the concept could have been taken in a more creative way. It’s a possessed sword… Idk. I kinda like it in some way, though. I hope its evolution is awesome.
Ok . . . .
You nose is so big big nose king of nose
Hey!
Hey, you!
…Go away.
Very mature.
Can anyone explain to me why the pokemon in the first and second photos are different…? Just a bit confused
But I do like the Pokemon, it’s actually really cool (but then again, I’m one of those that likes Vanilite)
In the first image it’s sheathed in it’s scabbard where as in the second image it’s drawn and the cloth is using it’s finger like appendages to hold onto the scabbard. Hope that cleared things up. 🙂
Ahhhh I see, thank you so much, it makes sense now
No problem, glad I could help.
That is so badass, it reminds me of Excalibur
I’m glad Everyone is excited about this Pokemon and it didn’t turn into another Vannilite
Now hopefully it doesn’t stab any Pokenon during battle
I feel like it could evolve into a bayonet pokemon though I feel like that’s WAY too adult for pokemon…
I can see this thing learning things like Leaf Blade, Swords dance, Night Slash, Fury swipes, Wide guard etc Just some examples.
Putting this new Pokemon aside, isn’t anyone excited to see Golem in 3D? x’D
I want to see it from back. The older generation back sprites of golem were disappointing.
I hated it, just like Palkia and Dialga’s from DPt we barely got the head if that.
This is such a cool pokemon design and I absolutely love it! The typing is amazing too. I’ve wanted a steel/ghost forever and a haunted sword is perfect!
Wondering if this thing can learn Sacred Sword and Secret Sword. Maybe, just maybe.
No, because the Sacred Swordsmen can only learn Sacred Sword! And Keldeo can only learn Secret Sword so no!
So…does anyone think if this pokemon has an evolution that it will be a haunted suit of armor?
So this video reveal was what Masuda’s twitter was talking about?
I can already tell it’s going to have an amazing Attack stat. I’m consider using it for my team.
I think it’s kind of cool how it holds its scabbard in battle. If we get unique fainting animations (I don’t think that’s been confirmed yet, but I’d expect as much), I’d like to imagine that it puts itself back into the scabbard before dropping to the ground/being recalled. I’m with the other people who think that it’ll evolve into a haunted suit of armor.
Tbh I don’t know what to think about this pokemon I would never expect a ghost sword pokemon. I like the concept but the desgin is kinda werid. It’s basically justa sword with a single eye. Maybe it will evolve into a knight pokemon?
Monorpale looks dumb and it’s unoriginal worst pokemon ever
1. Nice name. 2. Unoriginal? A possessed sword is more unoriginal than a pokeball with eyes that evolves by flipping over?
I was saying I hoped this Pokemon evolved into possessed armor, and I made a quick drawing to display my idea….
On a Knight’s headpiece, they have that fluff on the back. That would be replaced by a ghostly aura, which could also be what connects the seperate pieces. Those brown blobs are the sheathes that hold his swords (or in this case, the Monorpale :3). I just think it is cool if all the pieces were seperated and floating around. Maybe, just maybe, it could evolve into something like this. If so, I will have it on my team :3
Yes. I think the sword would look better if it was more like a Great Sword or a Lance, rather then a Dual Sword. Nonetheless a good drawing!
well i expect that it evolve into a possessed armor because i dont want it to be like vanilite evolution line that it only add another sword or add a shield to it because it will look really stupid………PLEASE BE A POSSESSED ARMOR POKEMON…….it will be stupid playing with it in pokemon amie
I don’t know if it would go straight to a possessed armor from a sword, but if anything it would be nice to have it evolve then evolve again adding parts each time, much like beldum and its evos.
That would be awesome to have!
Is the idea that the sword itself isn’t the Pokemon but instead the Pokemon is actually the ghost that inhabits the sword?
It’s most likely a sword (inanimate) possessed by a ghost (pokemon). Similar to how Golurk is a suit of armor possessed by a ghost.
Right. That’s a pretty concept, haha. I definitely like this new Pokemon.
I wonder if there will be a pair like Solrock and Lunatone but a sword and shield.

At first I thought it was a ghostly bookmark. the hand y’know?
