>>52369533Art skills are too shitty so have a image I found in five seconds. Line based on vikings, lions, Northern European nobility, etc. Stage 1 is a smol baby Lion pokemon and stage two and three are both bipedal.
>Norcub>These playful Pokémon are dutifully protected by the adults of their pride until they grow old enough to leave the pride or join on hunts. >Design is a small and playful white and blue lion cub with snowflake patterns on its fur>Ice/Normal>Abilities: Intimidate, Technician, (hidden) Own Tempo>Stats: 40, 45, 35, 40, 45, 85>Evolves at 35 into Raidleo>Raidleo>The warrior Pokémon hunt in groups to provide for the rest of the pride. They will fight to the death to protect those they care about>Bipedal design, males are darker and have a black mane while females have a white plume of fur that looks kind of like a Viking braid thing. >Ice/Fighting>Abilities: Intimidate, Technician, (hidden) No Guard (does not get sheer cold)>Stats: 65, 105, 70, 100, 65, 105>Males evolve when leveled up in a party with 5 female Raidleo>Jarleo>A wisened leader of a pride of Raidleo. This Pokémon is slow to act but brutally powerful when angered. >Looks like a big ass Lion viking king mother fucker with ice claws>Ice/Fighting>New ability: Contemplative: all attacking moves (not status) have one lower priority (so -1 for most)>Stats: 110, 140, 107, 86, 107, 110Note that this move set would have extreme speed (so that gives one non stab move with priority) as an option and status moves that wouldn’t be effected like Noble Roar. Basically a crazy strong final stage that’s held back by a shit ability. Stage two is the one I suspect will be the most competitive.
Side note, the final stage has 10 less BST than slaking and 10 more than Palafin. But I’ve type that can’t sweep so debatable if that matters.
