Ponyta's design doesn't have much to work with, so they'ell probabby not give it a form like Pikachu,Cubone,Eggexcute etc.

Regular abilites:
Leavitate
Magic Guard

First thing that comes to mind is snowman Slaking, but Ice types are easy mode.

For an area prone to thunderstorms, I'd love to see an electric Volcarona or Dragonite. Or a drifting at sea Water/Poison Garbodor. A Steel/Grass Aggron who eats forest instead of mountains. The list goes on.

I just love the regional variant so much. Honestly, whenever they reveal Gen 8 I'll probably say "Cool". But if the Switch game is about a region mostly populated with those variants, even if it's an updated Kanto who saw new species appear and adapt, that could hype me even more.

Alolan forms were always what they wanted to do but their "autism" didn't let them (long neck Exeggutor, white Vulpix like in Pokedex, Igloo Sandshrew, Ghost Marowak, Dark and Steel types for Gen I Pokemon).

I would like to see other faces for Arbok and Mantyke, Electrode for other types of Pokeballs, Ghost Parasect, Psychic Venomoth or Fighting Alakazam

I'm afraid that any Fire-type Pegasus design is in reserve for the possible horse starter. I know I'm calling for a shitstorm by saying that, but if the zodiac pattern holds on it would be the best way to make it feel different enough from Rapidash.

An alolan Klink line that's rusted because the saltwater and becomes steel\poison(tetanus infection), Klinklang seems more a sort of frankestein klink trio patched by the rust.

Alolan Joltik and Galvantula that are bug/fire instead of bug/electric due to living near Wela Volcano park instead of more urban enviroments. Color scheme goes from pale navy on yellow to deep red on black. Abilties stay the same as does most of their movepool but replace the electric moves with their fire equivalent.

New moves:
-Will-o-wisp (replaces thunder wave)
-Fire blast (replaces thunder)
-Flamethrower (Replaces thunderbolt)
-Heat wave
-Inferno
-Fire fang
-Clear smog

It's not necessarily being out-competed by dragon types. It could be being beaten out by other flying types, such as a rock/flying cave Swellow or an ice/flying magic guard sporting snowy owl variant of Noctowl.

so i asked someone to pick a random mon and was given Grumpig...here we go

so the Spoink line was moved to another region with very specific minerals and plants, and stopped bouncing, however the new environment actually helped them survive and NOT die as soon as they stopped so they became ground type, maybe ground/grass as Grumpig after eating the special plants or whatever. they can still bounce on their tails, but dont have to to survive or anything

it's a garden eel so ground/water might suit it better. They're slippery fucks according to hawaiian marine biologists, when ya catch them they are impossible to recapture again if you let them even touch the sand. Sand Veil is thus mandatory. Emergency Exit or some new ability mimicking the effects of a Shed Shell might be cool. Their existence in large numbers might mean they could utilize an ability more useful in Doubles.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnificent_snake_eel this nigga should be the basis for Alolan Arbok, seeing as Hawaii has no native snakes IIRC. It would change typing to Water/Dark or something. +10 Atk +10 Def -10 SpA -10 SpD -5 HP +5 Spe to minmax it further. Keeps Intimidate, others replaced with Analytic (HA) and Strong Jaw.

Water/Poison if it's instead modeled after the Yellowmouth Moray?

Like Alolan forms only one generation will get new forms but each (Time and Space) have a different generation.

Not sure which would be best for what generations.

Time seems like it could be good for Johto. First canon time skip between gens, first time revisiting a region, plot with villains focused on making up for lost time.

What generation would be good to give Space forms to? Unova's the only older region that doesn't have Megas or alternate Forms so maybe they get Space forms but Alola has neither either.

Girafarig with two different alt-forms/evolutions.

Dragon/Psychic with Giraffe head.

Ghost/Dragon with Chain-Chomp head.

Why Ghost? In both cases the unused side loses their sentience and partially lose their form. Chomp becomes like an eye and mouthless ball and chain for Giraffe, Giraffe becomes a mottled thick tail with spikes on the end for Chomp.
