The poll was tied for the Bagon split evo and the Goomy convergent line, and since I actually moves and art for the whole Bagon split evo, we're starting with that!

Raptogon

Grudge Pokemon

Dragon/Dark

After an ill-fated attempt to pursue its foolish dream, this Pokemon violently transcended the plane of the living. It now harbors ill-will towards all of those capable of flight.

HP: 85

Attack: 50

Defense: 65

SPA: 120

SPD: 70

Speed: 70

BST: 460

Anger Point - If this Pokemon (not its substitute) is damaged by a critical hit, its Attack is raised 12 stages.

The inspiration behind Raptogon was actually a what-if sorta thing, like, "what if Bagon didn't eventually gain flight?" At first I was going to make it a Ghost-type, but I felt a Dark-typing was better. Who said that a ghost Pokemon HAD to be a Ghost-type?

Artwork:

The purple mowhawk-thing on its back is supposed to be a ghosty-flowy thing, sorta like Hisuian-Typhlosion's flames. The claws float around, but they won't go too far, like maybe 15 feet at most.

Learnset:

Next up is Aromear, the evolved for of Whifcub!

Aromear

Scented Pokemon

Grass

The sweet-scented flowers that grow on Aromear’s mossy hide can release a powdery substance capable of confusing an attacker. It has began to grow vines to help protect it from predators.

HP: 60

Attack: 80

Defense: 85

SPA: 55

SPD: 65

Speed: 60

BST: 405

Overgrow - At ⅓ or less of its max HP, this Pokemon’s offensive stat is 1.5x with Grass attacks.

Aromear will still have a mossy hide like Whifcub, but now it has small flowers in varying colors growing along its hide, as well as some vines. I mean, who doesn't want to see a flowery bear?

Learnset:

Since my Grass-starter line had the most votes, we'll start with the base form, Whifcub!

Whifcub

Scented Pokemon

Grass

The moss that makes up Whifcub’s hide has a sweet flowery scent, making it a target for predators, especially Bug- and Flying-types.

HP: 56

Attack: 65

Defense: 60

SPA: 45

SPD: 51

Speed: 40

BST: 318

Overgrow - At ⅓ or less of its max HP, this Pokemon’s offensive stat is 1.5x with Grass attacks.

Whifcub is going to be a quadupedal bear cub with a mossy hide. It's supposed to be kinda cute looking, but I've never drawn a bear before, so when I do get to drawing the Whifcub line, it'll be interesting to see how it goes. The whole line going to be a kinda bulky physical attacker.

Welcome to Round 7 of guessing the Pokemon based on my nickname for them!

The correct answer for Charon was Hisuian Typhlosion!

When I was naming a Hisuian Typhlosion for one of my OU teams on Pokemon Showdown, I thought its Pokedex entry said something about guiding souls (I checked later, and fortunately, I was partially right), and the name just sorta popped into my mind, and now its stuck.

Rules:

• You'll only have to guess the final evolution of a Pokemon, and regional variants will have a different nickname!

• This will also include Legendaries, Mythologicals, and Ultra Beasts!

Before I give you the nickname, here's how I nickname my Pokemon:

• I try to name them after a fictional character, but most of these characters are from things that I read/watch, so of course that'll make this difficult.

• In some cases I'll give the Pokemon a nickname that's sorta object related, but still fits with the Pokemon itself.

• Some of my Pokemon are named after mythological dieties. The four that I know stuff about are Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Norse.

Now that you know the rules, it's time to figure what Pokemon receives the following nickname: Eddie

The correct Pokemon will be revealed when the next challenge starts in two to three days!

I'm working on some Fakemon stuff, and I need feedback on my ideas for type pairings for the starters.

Other than the Grass-Water-Fire triangle, I know that there's the Ghost-Dark-Fighting triangle (which was used for Hisui and Paldea), and that a Ground-Fighting-Steel triangle was used for the Sinnoh starters (and partially for the Hoenn starters).

I know that I want a bear (possibly a grizzly bear) for the Grass-starter, and that I want to use Fairy for the secondary typing of the Fire-type starter.

Maybe a Dragon-Steel-Fairy triangle could work? Like Fire-Fairy, Grass-Dragon, and Water-Steel?

Now that I'm thinking about it, I could do an amphibious lizard for the Water line, and maybe a lion for the Fire line.

So, in summary:

• Fire-Fairy Lion

• Grass-Dragon Bear

• Water-Steel Amphibious Lizard

Thoughts?

Also, who wants to hear about my Bagon split evo I'm working on? Or the convergent Goomy line?

Welcome to Round 6 of guessing the Pokemon based on my nickname for them!

The correct answer for Anakin was Gyarados!

The whole line is kind fitting to Anakin's story, really. He starts out as this little kid who doesn't really do all that much, but he eventually becomes really power- and goes evil for a time, which also fits into Gyardos's Mega Evolution, which changes its Flying-typing to Dark.
