>>28112699Alolan Ampharos is a pure Fire-type. The rocky coat is shed when it evolves. It is based on the concept of fire breathing. It can easily let a few embers out of its mouth, but it will breath into the orb on its tail to truly create a spectacle. Sometimes it will use leaves as well; they let off a more gaseous and light excretion, and a substance that can infect its opponents such as Sleep Powder or poison may be mixed in. It can let off glorious trails of fire with this tail, which is able to be seen at its best in battle. Its skin is a deep red. It orb on its tail looks like it has a bony claw holding it up, and a fire can be seen burning within it. The tighter the claw grips the orb the brighter it gets. Like its counterpart, Ampharos can use its tail as a beacon. The black lines are replaced with bony protrusions.
Lastly, there's Alolan Mega Ampharos (hypothetically). It is a Fire/Dragon-type. Unlike the other Mega Ampharos, which is based on a Chinese dragon, Alolan Mega Ampharos is based on an European dragon. It gains scaly rock skin; the scales are a hot red and look like they are partially molten and look like they are constantly moving. It has rock spires that line its back, and it has a stone tiara-shaped crown on its head. Its ears are rock torches. The end of its tail has a hammer-style bunch of bone which it uses to hit its foes with. Finally, it gains wings that it can use to fly around. Alolan Mega Ampharos appears more troublesome than any other version of Ampharos. It has a bit of black around its eyes along with fiery eyelashes, and it has more bony protrusions on it. Its teeth are pointy with rock-hard fangs that stick out of its mouth, and it often has a smug look on its face.
