Drew a quick mock-up of a recently cut beta mon for Diamond and Pearl that may or may not have been a pre-evolution from Mawile. Thanks to @Lewchube for helping document this
@soulsilverart I think the seed mon could evolve into anything. Maybe 18 forms to represent each type with small variations for the secondary type. Bug is a spider, steel is a robot, fighting is a humanoid, snake, fish, a dragon, etc
@kurwashibamaste Are there new traditional cross gen evos like kingambit and Togekiss, or is it all regional variant evos like the new ice Psyduck line and Perrserker?
@MagicMushMM I remember the Banjo vs Steve discussion having an extra boomer vs zoomer flare to them as that what was the boomer meme was taking off or was at its peak
@soulsilverart Magearna in the anime is in a weird situation. In the games, canonically there should be only one, but in the anime verse, there's two. One from the movie, and the shiny one with Lillie. Feel even weirder to have a third Magearna running around
It's so funny that we might get every character, mon, and story detail leaked before we even get our second trailer if the leakers are right about it being a year of silence.
@soulsilverart I'm thinking the new DLC lore is going to be that AZ made Magearna 500 years ago, and that the soul heart that is its true self is some type of mega energy. The soul heart was made from life energy as well. Why else would something fully artificial be able to mega evolve?
Mascot/Pokemon Center Pikachu is finally making it's way into games now after existing for about a decade plus. I wonder if this means other popular mons like Eevee, Charizard, Lucario, etc will get design updates as well to make them fresh/less stagnant
