Give my bro an evolution. Not a Mega, a traditional evolution.

>>58513923
Fire/Steel?

>>58513959
Why Steel?

I'd love for magcago to get some love

>>58513923
Magcargo is pretty much perfect. Megas and gigantimax stuff you can do all kinds of stupid gimmicks with.
But i cant think of any modifications to make to his base design that feel like a logical evolution.
>>
>>58513959
Because Rock=Incel and Steel=Chad
>>
>>58514010
His design is good but he's just pretty much the definition of a shitmon.
If I were to give him an evolution, I wouldn't change much his design and instead only add some minor details. However I would fix his stats, give him good moves and at least give him a more useful ability. And maybe >>58513959
>>58513974
Look at type resistances. He'd have one less weakness.

Yeah, but what other reason for the Steel type?
>>
>>58513923
Magmollusk
Fire/Rock
HP 81
ATK 70
DEF 135
SATK 110
SDEF 105
SPD 19
Ability: Sun's Flame
All this Pokemon's Fire moves hit for at least neutral damage, even against resisted targets. This Pokemon's Fire moves are so potent they can even Burn Fire types.

You now have a niche as being the slowest thing in TR, even slower than Torkoal, as well as the niche of being able to Will-o-wisp Fire Types.
>>
>>58514112
There are other reasons, such as having an excuse to change his moveset etc. but those all are competitive metagame reasons.
But I don't think that's what you are asking for.
>>
>>58514137
Exactly. I meant what thematic reason to change from Rock to Steel.
>>
>>58514126
I'd do the same but I'd change the stats to this just as a joke lol:
HP: 80
Attack: 50
Defense: 130
Sp. Atk: 135
Sp. Def: 120
Speed: 5
I S2 LOVE S2 TRICK ROOM
>>
>>58513923
No.
Crossgen evos have become more and more of a curse over time. Who gives a fuck if your favorite shitmon gets better stats if they give it a fucking disgusting numon design?
>>
>>58514194
Worse.
Better stat but still keep the shit moveset and abilities so in the end they aren't used and are still shitmons.
>>
Id just invent a new ability for it. All of its current abilities are kinda shit.
>>
>>58514175
I was trying to be realistic and went with roughly Girafarig to Farigiraf's stat changes then just lowered the speed to speed creep Torkoal. Really I think you could even raise its speed to base 40 or 50 and it would still be good with that ability on a TR team. Incineroar is the biggest wall for TR teams and they usually involve Torkoal, Calyrex, Ursaluna, or psy-spam. Being able to burn incin and hit it with STAB rock moves, or even just neutral fire damage on switch in would give Magmollusk a reason to be used, without being overcentralizing.

I'd like to see it get an evolution based on a conch.
With the siphon being used as like a flamethrower or something.

Here you go
>>
>>58514194
Because it means your shitmon can now hold an evolite and become kind of decent.
>>
>>58516263
>>58515589
Pokemon Vega did a similar design, but that's still pretty good.
>>
>Def 120
>SpDef 80

Eviolite would go hard
>>
>>58513923
No it gets gigantamax and instead of setting the sun its fire moves confuse the enemy
>>
>>58514147
Rock got hot during evolution and melted into a steel amalgam
>>
>>58514194
>favorite shitmon gets an evolution with a cool design
>awesome, it has an evolution with a cool design
>favorite shitmon gets an evolution with a fucking disgusting numon design
>awesome, now it can use eviolite and be better than its evo
It's a win-win.
