>>58278822>why do they all need to work the same way.....???Because why should there be only a single evolution stone that's an outlier to all the others? It'd be fine if every stone had a gimmick now, but no, Oval is the only evolutionary item with "stone" in the name that works differently from all the others.
>what is Dawn Stone's element? gender?Not quite, it's the Awakening stone. The specific gimmick of the Dawn Stone is that it only works on Pokemon of a specific gender, because it's awakening them to an alternate form of potential.
>Sunstone?Solar energy, which is the main theme of all of the evolutions.
>Shiny stone?Light, as the original JP name as well as the description imply.
>DuskDescription says it holds dark shadows, so it was never about "it can't decide", it's always been about both.
