>>56461122Ngl at first I thought the volbeat evo had big saggy naturals, I do think these two firefly shitmons deserve evos, either bug/electric or bug/fire for volbeat, and bug/fairy for illumise
>>56461315Ever since Basculegion and Annihilape dropped and stole my heart, I think slapping on the ghost type is an easy way to make any cross gen evolution a banger
Plenty of mons you could do it with, my votes would be:
>ParasectObvious choice considering it's dex entries and it's definitely shit enough to deserve the evolution, grass/ghost kinda fits more considering the bug is the one that's dead, but bug/ghost is the rarer type combo, would be cool if maybe it's based around the idea the fungus died from using all of the bug's resources
>Noctowl Owls often feature in spooky stories or among the sounds of things that go bump in the night, but what I think would really work here is Noctowl and Hoothoot's theme of clocks and "time", I picture a very old, wise and fierce looking owl with broken clock handles forming an angry brow, a metaphor for broken clocks and the concept of "running out of time" called something like Mortowlity if that's PG enough for a pokemon game, pic related is the kinda look I'd be going for, but meaner, more grey, with either fully red eyes or fully white eyes (like a spirit, or an old person with cataracts) and obviously the details I mentioned before
Or
>MusharnaHeavily linked to dreams which I feel could be a good segway into some kind of astral projection motif, it's always seemingly asleep while producing dream mist, so I could see an evolution for it getting the Comatose ability, and the mist it's producing make a projection of itself in a stronger form
