I'd definitely prefer something based on the omukade. creepy ass centipede that could mirror an eastern-style dragon as a pair of legendaries/pseudos

It seems like the shadow would be thin between Giratina-O and Gmax Centiscorch since those are already centipede dragon and omukade respectively unless you give it some absolutely bonkers stats.

Technically speaking we have Girantina and Centiskorch to fill that role. But then again, pokemon hasn't shone away from reusing species.

yeah, i know we've got Giratina-O and Centiskorch. I was just thinking something more along the lines of a super long body, that looks just "wrong" when put opposite of the eastern dragon pair. Sekiro definitely got me thinking of it, doing something like Bug/Dragon millipede, and a Normal or Flying/Dragon eastern design that were two sides of the same base species.

It's not like its evolutions are very bug like, so it's better to think of Applin as an apple wyrm that evolves into an apple wyvern or drake.

semantics. it's an entity living inside of something not a part of itself. the pokemon itself is based off of the apple maggot, which people tend to call worms. the dragon typing is a pun on being a worm wyrm.

It's a really cool and rare trope. Princess Maker 2 did it by having the bug dragons be called pseudo-dragons who were feared by everyone and despised because they tore down forests and ate them, yet if you're able to communicate with them, you find out that they're constantly terrified.
