What are the odds there will be "fixed" versions of the fossilmons in a future DLC?
They will still be worse than Dracovish

I think if there were new complete forms, they would've been found in the datamines by now.

Pretty damn low.
GF likes to be inconsistent, tease things, and leave things unfinished.
See Kalos, ORAS battle tower/frontier, the third dragon from Black/White. You could probably list multiple major unfinished asked from every game anon.

That's depressing.

>>43996030
It's sad but that's what happens when people buy Pokemon (and Nintendo games in general) without question, regardless of quality.

The only other company I can compare it to is Valve, who can shit all over it's player base, never update anything and still get nothing but bank and praise.

Them being mismatched creatures is rather the point, so I don't think we'll ever get "complete" versions of them.

But if we do, then that'd mean they'd have a lot more to work with. Instead of 2 heads with 2 bodies (making four combinations) they'd now have 4 heads with 4 bodies, meaning sixteen combinations

Exactly, that's the point I'm making, wrong fossil records get corrected upon discovering new information.
So in a future DLC, in some new isle connected to the Galar region, they could discover full skeletons of whatever those Pokemon are actually suppose to be and then we will have more Pokemon to play with.
This isn't about taking away from the original point, it's about building up on it, it's about having more, not less.

Fair enough, I suppose, though I still personally don't see it happening. That said, it could be interesting. I could see them making up for them being single-typed with a slightly higher BST, making the choice between two types or a bit higher stats when putting the two matching sets together.

I don't know how they will balance it, but GF are likely to shoehorn a rock typing on all of them.
So you'll have a choice between a Water/Dragon type or Rock/Water type.

That's assuming they would do something with it to begin with.

The idea of mismatched/misunderstood fossils is interesting because even to this day there are constant corrections, for example the spinosaurus was just recently discovered to be a swimmer, that would be like realizing Rampardos is actually a water type.

But GF is one of the laziest developers out there, so I don't expect much from them.

This is literally every fanbase ever. It just so happens Pokemon is the biggest franchise on the planet so its extra noticeable.
There are STILL people that love nu-Star Wars for example, and EA still makes multi billions off of dumb saps every year.
People revel in mediocrity and will defend it to the death because its part of their "identity"

The pokemon are put together incorrectly. How they appear in game isn't how the actual pokemon looked back before they were fossils.
It is cannon that pokemon like the ones in OPs image exist. The question is whether or not they will make it into a game / if they'll be acknowledged.

Zero because it would defeat the entire purpose. I could see this happening maybe in later games but not in Gen 8.

While a prehistoric seal would be pretty cool, I believe the Arcto fossil is loosely based on a marine reptile, like a plesiousaur, mosasaur, or icthyosaur.

Sure, but there are very good developers who listen to their community even after becoming really popular/successful.

Larian/ConcernedApe/Hopoo just to name a few, but Nintendo isn't one of them.

The reason I compare Nintendo to Valve is because these are the only two companies who can truly do just the bare minimum to barely sustain their games, and still get praised. Not even CDPR can pull this off.

I'm not, dozens is a far cry from 4 that are already half done.

I just thought that expanding on the idea of mismatched fossils by eventually figuring out the full skeleton would be interesting.

There are ~90 new Pokemon in Galar, that's enough for a generation.

No shit retard. That's the entire point. Why would they ruin the point by making ""correct"" versions? Learn how to read.

They wouldn't ruin it though, it's not like getting the complete versions suddenly removes the mismatches from existence.

Yes it would. Why would the incomplete versions even exist in the first place if in-universe people are already aware of the ""real"" ones? It takes a complete shit on the concept just for the sake of adding more boring as shit cartoon animals that only appeal to autists like you.

>Heads
Kabutops shoulders with scythes (Rock), Cradily down to middle of neck’s second yellow ring (Grass), Bastiodon’s head and front legs (Steel), Archeops down to just below it’s wings (Flying), Only Aurorus down to the bottom of it’s neck (Ice)
>Tails
Omastar’s shell (Rock, Special Attack), Armaldo’s legs (Bug), Rampardos’ Legs (Rock, Physical Attack), Carracosta’s entire lower half bisected (Water), All of Tyrantrum sans it’s head past the feathers where the upper side pops out of (Dragon, slow and bulky)
Aerodactyl could be invited but I couldn’t decide which half and Mega or not. All Heads gain new moves that function like Aqueous Rend/Beak Bolt that rely on Attack (Rock), Sp Def (Grass), Defense (Steel), Special (Ice) and any stat boost like Power Trip (Flying but with Defeatist as an ability).

You do know the real ones could be discovered in the immediate future, right dumbass? Again, it doesn't "ruin" the concept at all, it just gives players more options and expands upon paleontological concepts. Go fuck yourself for not wanting fans to see their favorite animals properly realized as Pokemon.

I don't mind the mix-match concept, but couldn't they have chosen less popular/more obscure prehistoric animals?

You know what would be hilarious? If the original fossil forms were added but the game treated them as completely unrelated species.
