What are some Pokemon that actually really need pre-evos

Why would a pokemon "need" a pre-evo?
>>
>>58799475
Leave Heracross alone, he's perfect. Stop mindless insisting that EVERY pokemon needs a pre-evo and/or a evo.

Better availability and balance for earlygame if done correctly

big emphasis on that last part because it usually isn't, and nowadays game freak clearly doesn't give a flying fuck considering SV throws 500 BST mons at you right out the gate

ZA forces you to get a Brave Heracross with trade boost exp almost immediately so speedruns just use him all game now.

Tauros/Miltank

>>58799475
Literally none. Why the fuck would I want a weaker version of a mon that already exists
>>
>>58799475
Unova general, way too many 2-stagers that were designed solely around when they were encountered in Unova. Things like Rufflet, Mienfoo, and Larvesta stay in their stages for way too long, they need something to fill the gaps so they can be obtainable in early-game for later titles while not being tiresome to train
>>
>>58799475
Alomomola
>>
>>58799763
Granted but the monkey paw curls and it's the same Pokemon for both. Cementing the implied relationship between them.
>>
>>58799475
There are only two Pokemon that actually need one. Kangaskhan, because it technically already has one, and Miltank/Tauros, because they're actually the same species and a babymon that evolves into one of them based on its gender would make a lot more sense when breeding them.
>>
>>58799663
he needs a second stage not a first
>>
>>58799929
Larvesta would need a middle evolution above it if anything.
>>
>>58799529
Every pokemon does. Mega evos were a gay and faggot mistake that shouldve just added more normal evos or 4th tiers
>>
Onix should be a middle stage
>>
>>58800694
It has the offensive capabilities of a Pidgy
It's prevo would be a worse Happiny, because it wouldn't even have the HP to make it's mediocre defense work
Onix needs a new split Evo
>>
>>58800706
Onyx has needed a stat fix for- how many years now?
>"Pokémon 30th anniversary coming soon!"
yeah.
The Brock shit was never an excuse when they could have simply scaled its stats out better at higher levels

came here to bring up larvesta/volcarona
that line badly needs a middle stage evolution
maybe it could be a mixed attacker to smooth the transition from larvesta's physical offense to volcarona's special defense
also if volc becomes a pseudo then put like 10 extra points into defense and +40 into attack to prevent it from being absurdly broken (disregard this advice if current powercreep continues) while still letting it effectively run some semi-utility physical moves and have electric coverage too
>>
>>58800243
Why not both, do what they did to Roselia in gen 4.
>>
>>58800657
>4th tiers
and ruin pokémon permanently, not only by expanding the lines further but by creating the possibility of a 5th (and then more) stages at any later point

CHECK the horn shape in OP photo,
It's an He.

oh buddy wait until you see how people talk about Primarina or Meganium.
>>
>>58800914
Who the fuck cares
I want more normal evos. Not faggot ass megas that go away.
>>
Plenty of Pokémon need a cross-gen pre-evo. They should also give Baby Pokémon more gameplay benefits. Especially because for some reason every cross-gen pre-evo is also a Baby Pokémon.

Basically any Pokémon that's too developed looking to be hatching out of an Egg who is the first of their evo line. That alone would be around fifty Pokémon. There's also plenty of existing Pokémon who should be Baby Pokémon, around fifty of those too.

I want the baby Kangaskhan as an official Baby Pokémon.

Normally i feel like making a new baby form would be a waste of time but I'll make an exception for kanga
>>
>>58799929
>way too many 2-stagers that were designed solely around
and then there's fucking Larvesta who is an egg giftmon that takes until LEVEL 59 to evolve
>>
>>58803428
I wonder if you could make a Zangoose and Seviper pre-evo without it looking too much like other pokemon.

Plenty, but honestly we need more evos than pre-evo...
Didn't need pre-evos
>Gen one fairy egg group mons
Honestly none of them needed pre-evos, were weak as is and didn't need to look more infantile
>Azurill
>Chingling
I get theme here, but still that's necessary
>budew

Ones we honestly do need
>Kanghaskid
maybe evolves into a really agressive male too
>larvae pre-evo for heracross/pinsir
>>58799529 I hear you, but having good BST and no stab the till lvl 50 some ain't cool.

>maybe Skarmory we always get it near the end of the game, but still.
>Elemental monkeys should have just come from one
>Sawk and Throh need one as well as a third member? A green oni?

Boom we got a proper Pseudo

I just don't get why gamefreak doesn't want more than one Pseudo per gen.

No.
Stop.
Keep single stage Pokemon.
Stop giving everything an evolution.
>>
>>58805743
Mmmmmm nope
Need more evos and less shitmons that newer gens keep making
>>
>>58805737
make aggron a pseudo too
+33 hp +5 atk + 25 spd +17 spe
gives it much needed extra bulk (especially special bulk) and enough extra speed to do funny things with max investment rock polish sets
>>
>>58805701
>Skault
>Skarmory

>>
>>58805996
my sentiments exactly, having a mega that gives it such great attack in exchange for it's defense was a terrible idea. Skamory was meant fill the role of a wall/defender for one's team comp.

>>58805800

>based off a kaiju

Why the hell didn't they?
Honestly I would have said

The fucking thing is still common to see to this day. Even Excadrill couldn't keep up with creep
>>
Has there been a single prevo since Gen 4? I think Game Freak just doesn't do them anymore.
>>
>>58806270
Not a one. I think it may have to do with the garbage incense as their excuse to avoid retcons, but those were thankfully trashed in Gen 9, so I'm hoping Gen 10 will bring pre-evos back.
>>
>>58799475
druddigon, drampa, onix, lapras, skarmory
>>
>>58806270
Correct. But we did get Toxel in gen 8, but that's not a cross-gen pre-evo.

>>58806339
This. The Incense thing was stupid, just treat cross-gen pre-evos as a proper retcon of who is the first of the evo line, if anything trying to explain is more weird. I'm hoping for more cross-gen pre-evos and other Baby Pokémon in gen 10.

Honestly, most of them need evos but in a perfect world, you'd have every Pokemon line with at least one two stage evolution and then you can branch out with stuff like Slowking, Appletun and so on. We should be at the point where one of the generations is just cross-evos or new species from two existing Pokemon.
>>
>>58799484
im scared to think how fucking horrid it would be seeing the whole line
