>paves the way for stone evos to get a third evo via move learningThank you, Hydrapple. Now then, any ideas who should get another evo?

>>55779626>Glaceon Ice/GhostThis is accomplished by throwing a Hard Stone at a regular Glaceon.
>>55779440The flapple and appletun
>>55779626Some of these don’t make sense at all
>>55779756None of tehm do, it's just autism to give them a secondary type of the types without an Eeveelution, rather than just making more Eeveelutions as actual representatives of the unused typings.
>>55779440Gorochu will live!
>>55779818Gorochu will be Raichu's mega evolution.
>>55779818>>55779845God I wish
>>55779818>>55779845>>55779854It's dead, get over it. Unlike 4chins, Game Freak are all-too-keenly aware how they can make something fit and they stopped trying to bother when they made Pichu. No-one cares for Raichu, thus what's the point trying to force it?
>>55779869>>No-one cares for Raichu>blocks your path
>>55779902>posts something which has been reserved exclusively for making alphazooms care about old pokemon as if that somehow counters my argumentYeah, sure is nice of you to post confirmation of my statement.
>>55779474That's a trade evo.
>>55779440both sandslashesthey already have the BST of a not fully evolved pokemon
>>55779731brick stone
>>55780462>no one, no even gamefreak, cares about raichu!>the new raichu form that gamefreak made was just for the people that care about raichu!which is it
>>55779854I'm really hoping for a Mega Raichu that fills the same void.
>>55779474Still don't understand why he wasn't a split evo. I mean it's nice Porygon2 can abuse eviolite but still.
>>55781162If it was for people who like Raichu they would have buffed Raichu itself instead of replacing it with Cooler Raichu Same Reason why legends starters were replaced with regionals. Everyone hated: Bigger Cyndaquil with CHARIZARD's Copy-Pasted Stats, Pooltoy that can't use its sword, and SFMA School shooter Owl that's mogged by its own preevo, so Game Freak made versions that people actually like.
>Heliolisk>SunfloraIts time
>>55781167That's because you retards ignore all sense and reason.
>>55779869raichu is great you dumb faggot, sorry you got filtered
Starmie
>>55779626I understand the reference to Pin Missile but I feel like Vaporeon could make the Bug-type work better.
>>55781363>>55780462>says the contrarian nigress
People want mega Raichu when Gorochu should be a split pikachu evo that’s Thunder/Fire
>>55781226yeah, gamefreak only gives regionals to pokemon no one cares about, like meowthoh wait
>>55781347>you retardsImmaturity detected. Opinion discarded. Learn to speak and behave like an adult.
>>55781347Masuda is either just straight up lying here or is showing unprecedented levels of autistically splitting hairs.Ever since Spaceworld 97 leaked, we can see how they brought back multiple axed mons in later generations (a high amount in gen4 alone)... So there's always a likelihood of someone looking at an old design and fixing it for the new gen.The weird deer from gen1 likely turned into stantler too. So reviving an axed gen1 design wouldn't start with gorochu.
>>55781503Pretending meowth is charizard will never not be funny afterbirth. But it also displays how badly triggered you are by the status quo.
>>55781662pretty sure someone (I don't remember who but I want to say turner) confirmed in other interviews that some designs do get shifted around to later games
>>55781738yeah, meowth isn't charizardit's meowth, one of the most iconic pokemon that had a mainstay role in the anime for nearly the series' entire lifetime, and despite having multiple regional variants, none of them were ever used to actively attempt to replace itbut ok
>>55781744Given Masuda's doublespeak half the time... I wouldn't be shocked if it was Masuda himself who revealed it after that other interview where he said they don't do that.
>>55781662Because they didn't go 7+ years without them getting added, they managed to tweak it to get accepted for the next Gen (Shellos/Gastrodon). Turner also said he's seen shit made for one Gen get declined, but accepted for another Gen in Gen 8 interviews. And NEITHER of those statements actually touch on the meaning behind what Masuda said. Since you're stupit, I'll explain:>"none of the designs we created, worked on, then realised they wouldn't fit our world as a living thing and scrapped entirely have actually re-appeared yet"In other words, the designs you claim counter Masuda's point don't actually counter them, because they didn't "utterly discard" the design, but stuck it back in the over to bake another little while. Gorochu was dead twice over by time Gen 2 came - when electric/dragon ended up too strong a monster for an early-game rat and when Pikachu became the mascot due to public reception. Whatever chance it did have then got utterly snuffed out, because "lole, maek cute babby piggerchu".
>>55781744>>55781792Oh fuck. While looking up that article from 6 years ago about how SM was rushed out to hit the anniversary year... It literally fucking WAS Masuda contradicting himself about reviving scrapped designs.
>>55781812Unironically kill yourself.
>>55781760It;'s not ME you need to bullshit kid, but Game Freak don't give a monkey's for the anime or what westerners think of it however, hence why Meowth got two regionals and a regional evo to make it less of a fuck to alphas.
Why is some boomer larper mad about Meowth again?
>>55781823Grow up you kiddy bastard. Not MY fault you flagrantly ignore reality when dealing with your kiddy toy.
>>55781834Because it's a regrettable shitmon Game Freak tried to fix and her perfect memories of pogeymans after school won't let her accept that.
>>55781242>helioptile will get the same threatment as eevee, in other worlds will get 8 more stone evolutions.
>>55781843he was talking about you, buddy
>>55781216I still want it to be a split evo with a Porygon3. Porygon2 doesn't feel complete and Porygon-Z is unofficial mods
>>55782152All I'm doing is pointing out how little effect the anime had on meowth's popularity.YOU little niggers may have been edgy bastards who cheered for the bad guys, but the fact they get blasted off every ep just tells kids they're a fucking joke. Hence why Game Freak attempted to rehab its image by retyping and re-designing it.If regionals were given to any actually authentically popular pokémon, something that actually had a cultural impact like Charizard, lucario or Greninja, shithead may have a point. But looking solely at the games (because the spin-offs are the purview of the pre-teen and mildly retarded), nothing that got a glow-up was actually popular in modern-day pokémon. Eras changed and kids evolved away from the early-adopters' tastes of the franchise that you hold onto as gospel.
