Screw having good stats, typing and moveset, what this franchise needs is more pokemon that are not that strong but still good (or somewhat usable) because of weird ability, like mimikyu, shedinja or eiscue. Let's brainstorm a few.

Here is mine:
All stats are about 35 and the ability would raise all stats by two stages at the end of every turn, I think it would work as a fighting type that is warming up for the fight.

A Castform-like Pokemon that periodically rotates between mono Fire, Water, or Grass type at the end of each turn. It also has a Normal-type move that deals damage based on its current typing.
At the end of battle it remains either Fire/Water/Grass type, like the Burmy line from Gen IV

This thing is completely imune to attacking moves and can only be killed by status or entry hazard, give it ok stats and it will probably change the whole meta

on second thought, only 2 super strong moves is better, makes it far easier to balance and think about
also forgot to mention that by Explosion, I meant its pre-nerf form with the Defense halving effect

I think with eletric instead or ice you will miss ground types but hit water types, and they are more common. Still, there will always be very common pokemon that will forever wall you. Attack shedinja would be weird, it would never hit anything, but always force to switch out

What about a weak Pokemon that revives each time another of your mons faints? As in very weak but you can potentially fully use it 6 times per battle? How weak should it be for it to be balanced?
>>48185864
Just make it a 340/500BP attack depending what gen you wanna copy, the defense halving part was just to get over 8-bit limitations.

I think a cool gimmick for Relicanth would be that it gets to use another attacking move the turn after using Dive. So it can attack twice for every attack used against it, but one of them has to be Dive.

This would change the entire meta in singles. It would be one of the best pivots in the game depending on the moveset. Teleport, U-turn, defog, rapid spin, status moves would all make it super amazing. Teleport would essentially give you a free safe entry multiple times through out the fight
