Interspecies ability breeding and egg moves to increase movepools

>Also sandslash's name makes no sense as an icetype

That's true of a lot of animals though. Like the komodo dragon isn't actually a dragon.

>>27519778
Its name still makes sense though since it at least looks like a dragon. You can give them the benefit of the doubt because you know where they're coming from.

Coldsteel has absolutely nothing to do with sand.

>>27519747
Agreed, I'm calling mine snowslash

>>27519797
Snow is basically white sand

>>27519804
Even in that case, no languages equate the two as the same thing.

It was already called sandslash before it was discovered there was an ice variant living on top of the mountain.
Which begs the question, how long did it take natural selection to make this thing? Hawaii hasnt had people for all that long, and basically every mammal in Hawaii was imported by humans

I love it

>>27519846
Game freak doesn't like Flygon, let it go

>>27519778
Super weak example, man.

>>27519747
If the alolan versions wind up being the original forms like exeggutor names would make even less sense again

>>27519838
Pretty sure natural selection works insanely fast in the world of pokémon.

I'm hoping new Exeggutor swaps his physical and special attacks, wood hammer, explosion, whatever else new it learns, hopefully dragon dance, could be fun

it'd be neat if it got trick too to go with frisk, but losing psychic type makes that seem less likely

>>27520630
Not all Alolan variations are the original form
