Not man-made chimeras, that for sure

>>29394884
Those are all natural abilities/parts of their body though. Type: Null's helmet is man-made

>>29394862
Actually no. It gets bigger and stronger when it evolves, which is what allows it to break the helmet.

>>29394952
But the helmet is specifically what's making it weaker. Its website description implies that it's capable of breaking out of the helmet at any time, but just chooses not to until a certain point.

It can also be assumed the the extra foot of height it gains is simply from its crest fanning out

>>29394884
Silvally should be a form change, not evo
Wishiwashi should be a evo, not form change (its like magneton or dugtrio or klang
Minior and Tapus are fine

>>29394952
>>29395042
Its like pizza breaking through the oven 4 u

>>29394862
Literally the only reason why they're two different Pokémon is so they could have two different names, allowing for the "Type: Null" name gimmick.

>All individual types are metaphorical for all Pokemon (water types live near water, fighting types are martial artists on offense and defense, ect.) except for Normal, which has the least normal Pokemon (One of the fattest Pokemon, a 3D duck, a chimera, and all mixed typing with normal)

But it can't change back when it breaks the helmet.
