>>25270144Something like this. Maybe not exactly like this but something like it, if the shell were made out of steel and shaped a bit different. Google "sea snail shell", some of them are rather cool looking.
Basically I want Magcar-evo to look like a living, moving metal foundry. Like it was born in the Fuego Ironworks or something.
I was comparing Magcargot and Heatran's stats and seeing what could be done. Heatran has:
91/90/106/130/106/77 BST -- 600
And I'm thinking Magcar-evo's could be something like:
75/80/170/115/90/10 BST -- 540
So aside from Defense it WOULD be a poor man's Heatran, but that's fine. I'd be happy to see it UU. It might also gain a slight niche over Heatran because it can learn Amnesia and Yawn and Recover and a few other weird moves Heatran doesn't get.
(It drops in speed because it gets bigger and heavier when it evolves, and....it's a snail. I just think it's super appropriate for a snail to be incredibly slow.)
>>25268914I actually really liked that they did this at first, but after Gen IV it's just become a mess. They need a retcon overhaul. Leafeon and Glaceon evolve with Leaf and Dawn stones. Baby Pokémon are now always that base form when breeding and don't need some kind of held item. Etc.
Just as long as they do it all at once.
