New Pokemon Grubbin
Grubbin relies on its sturdy jaw as a weapon in battle and as a tool for burrowing through the earth. Grubbin loves electricity, which is why it can be found near power plants and substations. By wrapping tree branches in the sticky threads that it spews from its mouth, Grubbin can swing around like an actor on suspension wires!
EARLY GAME BUG ELECTRIC TYPE
CHOO CHOO
Fake

Except it's pure bug

Magearna official art
>>26734283
They meant the evolutions Anon.
>>26734282
No it's not, fag, there is a video of it.
Any bug enthusiasts here have any idea what it might be based off of?
>>26734346
Weird. Looks like Sugimori art. I thought Ohmura was doing the Pokemon. I'm confused
>>26734494
Not necessarily a bug enthusiast but it looks like it's supposed to be beetle larva. Don't know if the electric related habits are based on something in particular.
>>26734494
It will be a bug like Heracross or Pinsir.
>>26734494
Immediately made me think of a witchetty grub
>>26734204
It might also be bug/ground in its final stage. It would make sense that a Pokemon who likes eating electricity would develop protection against it.
>>26734494
A beetle larva
>>26734109
It's larvyn from pokemon sage
Pumba warthog Pokemon incoming.
>>26734109
This is unironically my favourite 7th gen pokemon thus far.
>beetle larva
>electricity
Its gonna evolve into a power plant worker beetle
That thing on its head will become a helmet
>>26734828
Coincidentally, the beetles Heracross are based on (maybe stag beetles too I think?) are actually associated with thunder and lightning iirc
lol they were expecting the treehouse guy to find one but instead he wasted 5 minutes catching a Ledyba
>>26734852
well Garren was using Fire
I can't wait to catch, evolve, and never use this pokemon
>>26734848
I would be so okay with this. Like, a badass construction kabuto or something
>>26734870
I'm thinking Kabuto and Stronger, as well as Kuawagata medal's powers in OOO, off the top of my head, and that's just Kamen Rider.
>>26734109
.... earth... electricity... tree.
This bug may not simply has one line of evolution.
>>26734910
kabuto, stronger and blade are rhino beetles
garren, gattack, kuuga, gatakiribata are stag beetles
gata coin is the only one that showed electricity I think, kuuga had more FIRE stuff
>Grubbin can actually become either Stag or Rhino beetle
>>26734540
Makes sense since beetles are associates with lighting.
>>26734852
Heracross is based on a Hercules beetle.
>>26735026
Uh, no. It's not. Its name is a misnomer. It's based on a Japanese rhinoceros beetle. It evolves into a hercules beetle.
>>26734959
Kabuto is definitley associated with electricity. It didn't specifically have electric powers though.
>>26735100
I was talking about all of the rhino beetle riders having electricity (Stronger's START UP, Kabuto's Rider Kick, Blade's element), whereas gatakiribata being the only stag beetle rider having electricity
Good to know that my mono-type bug run won't have to rely on another god damn butterfly early game.
>>26735143
I didn't say they all had electric powers, just that Kuwagata medal gave electric powers.
>>26735269
wait a minute, did Gattack have an electric attack?
>>26735216
Yeah, it'll be a moth instead.
>>26734494
Grubbin's final form, calling it now
>>26735286
No, I don't think so, but it's been a while andI never finished watching the series. I just know Kabuto himself had an electricity aesthetic.
>>26734109
Calling it not, it evolves into an electric beetle.
It totally isn't named Kabuterimon, why do you ask?
>>26735319
>Emerald lightning
I NEED IT.
>>26734109
>sticky threads
MODS STICKY PLS
>it's a pbysical bug / electric type mon like electivire and luxray that will end being shit episode
>it's similrity with larvesta could have let it to become a volcarona electric counterpart
Meh, can't be worse than Wurmple line or Kricketot and Burmy one at least.
Why must we get a grub pokemon? Jesus christ that is fucking scary. Bug pokemon are scary these days.
>>26736963
Misty pls go
>>26734283
i will see
>>26734109
>burrowing through the earth
Dig/Ground?
>wrapping tree branches in the sticky threads
Grass?
>found near power plants and substations
Electric?
>swing around like an actor on suspension wires
Acrobatics/Flying?
>>26734494
It could be a fucking lot of different things. Seems most likely to be something similar to a stag beetle based on how Pokémon designs work.
>>26734494
>>26734494
>electric beetle
I really like this! It's cute and has a cool design.
>>26734885
>yfw it's as good as a Gen V bug
I used a Scolipede in my first run of White. Did not regret.
>>26734957
Bug/Ground ant, Bug/Grass Butterfly, Bug/Electric Beetle?
>>26734109
>burrows through the earth
>loves electricity
here's hoping this is the evolution
Bug/Ground with Lightning Rod
>>26738321
forgot the picture
>>26738286
Not the one that looks like a stun-gun and is the child level?
>>26735299
As if caterpillars have jaws like that.
>>26738356
Are you saying Pokémon doesn't have cartoony animals?
>>26738356
Someone literally posted the larva of a moth in one of these htreads that had a similar color scheme with an orange head, jaws, and a white body
And before you bring up the name, far too many Pokemon are named after something they actually aren't based on for the sake of a pun.
>>26738349
It's going to be a
GIANT TROPICAL CENTIPEDE
>>26738404
Grubbin is a beetle larva. Not only does it literally look like one, but moth and butterfly larvae are usually called caterpillars, not grubs.
>>26734109
>that cute little hard hat
oh my god
>>26738604
>And before you bring up the name, far too many Pokemon are named after something they actually aren't based on for the sake of a pun.
And it also looked like the caterpillar that person posted
>>26738635
Not really. It looks more like an actual beetle larva.
>>26734494
a taser
Would be cool if the horns turned into an electrical plug.
>>26738566
We already have Scolipede
>>26734494
Personally it looks a little like Firefly larvae, and with the "loves electricity" bit it would make sense.
A scarab would be cool too but I don't see that happening.
>>26738785
imagine it's final form being a lightning bug with a taser motif
gamefreak please
>power plants
>substations
>2 of the major loose ends in Kalos!
>>26739273
>Final form
>>26734494
If it's from Hawaii with that kind of color scheme I really lean towards the idea of a Bombadier beetle.
The jaws are a bit large for their larvae but i think
GF just wanted to excentuate the whole "digging and gnawing at dead trees" habit of all beetle larva
>>26735071
Even the Dichatoma beetle is technically classified under the same group as the Dynastees Hercules beetle.
Heracross may not be a hercules beetle, but both him and his mega are rhinoceros beetles
>>26735319
Dem niggas aint natives.
