  1. What every Generation has:
    Pseudo-Legendary, with at least one immunity let it from a typing or ability
    Mythical Pokemon, with 100 in every stat
    Regional Bird, fan-favorites
    Starters, favorites of bullies
    Pikachu clone, self-explanatory
    Regional rodent that need a population marker
    Regional bug, that evolve way too fast (don’t all Bug-types? Then you remember Larvesta)

    • Kalos has Diancie as the mythical Pokemon, it’s just that 50 was taken from HP and Speed and put into the Defenses

  4. If Mega Sceptile got dibs on being Grass/Dragon, then what should Mega Serperior’s typing be? Should it change at all?

    I say “yes”, and make it Grass/Water. It’s a great defensive typing, and Serperior can learn Aqua Tail via Move Tutor.

  6. Besides remade Champions (whoever it’ll be in ORAS), can we have a Champion that specializes in a type for once?

  7. Torterra is based off of the World Turtle from Ancient lore or an Ankylosaurus, Infernape is based off of Sun Wukong from the Chinse Epic; Journey to the West, and Empoleon is based off of an Emperor Penguin or a combination of an Emperor Penguin and the trident.

    Beginning = Torterra
    Middle = Infernape
    Modern = Empoleon
