I think it's so weird because the bubble is unlike anything you see on a Pokemon. It's like how Aurorus has gradient colors on its sails, I don't think any other Pokemon has gradient colors like that except for Mega Gengar. The closest thing I can think of to the bubble is Reuniclus' bubble, but even its model looks completely different. It's got weird lighting on the outer parts of the bubble compared to Reuniclus. I like it though, hope it gets a good typing.
>>

didn't you know? this and sea urchin thing are the fossils
>>
>>29540121
I'm uncomfortable with the fact it only has three pairs of legs. Usually they have four, or at least some claws or pincers to stand in for the first pair. It's like a kabuto trapped inside one of those walking fish leg things from Gyo.
>>
>>29540431
Thats partially because I used the gradient tool when trying to recreate its shading, kek.

I would have used a sugimori type of shading but I dont have the patience.
>>
>>29540121
Its a diving spider, the obvious typing would be Bug/Water.

If so, that would lead me to believe Wimpod switches out Bug/Water for something else.

No I was particularly referring to the leaked model from the datamine, although your drawing is pretty good.

Maybe it's because the bubble is grey? I don't know, but it's definitely unique when compared with any other Pokemon.

Probably my least favourite design this gen. It looks super unappealing imo, and I don't get why it ditches the boxing theme. I don't blame the leaker dude who said this was a snowman. Why does it have weird frilly white fur? Why do its claws not look like boxing gloves anymore? Why does it lose the funny 'black eye' feature.

I was never a huge fan of Crabrawler, but it honestly would have been better off not evolving. It never looked like it needed to imo.

Why? If Exeggutor can be a Dragon, I don't see why this couldn't. In all honesty with the Samurai Armour the most likely combo seems to be Bug/Steel, but surely they won't do that again? We already have tons of those.

I'm just glad it's filling out the unused Fighting/Ice type combo. Let's hope the moveset is actually half decent

It'll probably evolve with the Ice Stone, and it's pretty fine imo, Except Eevee, we never had a mon that evolve with a stone that changed its typing. Weird when you know that they emit radiations or something.
Instead, they always went with a "it's grass-type ? Leaf stone" Always the type-conrresponding stone, which is fine in itself but feels kinda meh. Having stones changing a pokémon's type (well, adding a secondary one) feels way more coherent.
>>

The boxing theme is still there. It's a yeti crab with sparring gloves. You hold your palm out and let your partner hit against them to spar.
Crabbrawler spends all his life to be the best boxer and once he evolves he finally reaches his full potential and becomes more like a coach than a boxer.

>>
>>29541984
>It's a yeti crab with sparring gloves. You hold your palm out and let your partner hit against them to spar.

I could see this being the idea behind it's design, but it's not conveyed extremely well. I have never seen focus mitts that look like yeti crabs claws before.

Right now I don't especially like yeti crab, because it looks slow and would have many common weaknesses as a Fighting/Ice type. I don't mind it's goofy design, though, and it might have more personality once we see it's animations. I hope it gets a better ability than Hyper Cutter/Iron Fist in the end. It might actually work out OK as a defensive Pokémon if it gets Filter, since it only has 2x weaknesses. Or it might be possible to use it offensively even if it's speed is low if it gets Ice Shard and Mach Punch.

>>29542222
Whatever this is supposed to be, it looks like a defensive or support Pokémon. Water type seems like a given, and my first guess would be Poison for it's secondary type. That would be somewhat disappointing, though, since that's essentially a Tentacruel, even though the typing is good defensively. It might get Iron Barbs or Poison Point as it's ability. Right now I'm not very excited about this Pokémon.

>>29540121

I think that it is the water/bug countertype to Wimpod2, and they are version exclusives. I really prefer this one over Wimpod's evo though, so I'll get whatever version this comes in. I hope that isn't the case, but I think it may be.

So, like gaining Water with a Water Stone, or Ghost/Dark with a Dusk Stone.

I've seen people say it's ditching the boxing theme.

It's not.
Most boxers are young, brash, and in their prime.
But when they get older, they have to retire from boxing. Some of them become coaches for new boxers.

It's claws now look like blocking pads instead of boxing gloves, so I'm willing to bet this thing trains crabrawlers no that it past it's fighting prime.
>>
>>29543324
OR, hear me out on this, it's just a spider with a diving theme going on for it, instead of the abdomen it's the actual head.

>>29544675
The main reason why I don't feel this design could work is this: the body orientation.

This is best seen in the pre-evo since it has a tripod design. If this is how you say and its bottom half is its real head, how will it fight ? It has three out of six legs holding the bubble, two in the front and one on the back and the other three also have a similar orientation. If this thing would turn around to "face" you, it would only have two legs in the back and one in the front going completly down its face, it would be like having a metal bar constantly stuck on you face, in between you eyes and bloking your view point and it wouldn't be able to stand up either. The tripod design simply prevents this.

As for the final evolution, the way it's situated also suggests it won't have a good way of fighting. This is not like Mawile or Sceptile where it can just turn its head around to not blow its cover, its head and thorax are one piece and this is suposed to be a frontal view. Plus, we already know bugs and arthropods work differently in the pokemon world, they do have mouths and breath air through them, not like real bugs that do it via there entire body.

I know it sounds like a cool idea, but this is GF we're talking about, they can pull clever ideas and designs, but we shouldn't expect them to go full Lurantis on every pokemon.
>>
>>29544945
It's not really a tripod. The legs behind it are its middle legs, one bent forwards the other bent backwards.
If we assume that the bubble is filled with air, we can further assume that, like most fish pokemon, it acts as if it were underwater. Should this be the case it'll likely flip upside down whenever it needs to us its head.
I'd be interested to hear how you think it'll have an easier time fighting with its head encased in a bubble.

I'm not particularly fond of its design - I feel it clashes too much with the rest of Alola's Pokémon - but if it has a unique typing (Bug/Water-type, Electric/Poison-type, etc.), then I could see myself liking it more.

Poison/Electric would be interesting since it resists both of Masquerain's STABs and has a SE STAB against both Surskit and Masquerain. And look where it appears in the regional Pokedex:
http://pastebin.com/wgVRUhjU

Just give it Water Absorb or a new Waterproof ability (reduces Water damage by 50% and Ice damage by 25%).
>>
>>29544897
Spiders breathe through "book lungs" which are respiratory organs located underneath their abdomen, hence why the air bubble is placed there

Bonus fact: Horseshoe crabs are related to spiders and have book gills, which are sort of similar but let them breathe underwater

Poison/Electric would be really cool and unique.

Ok, so why shouldn't the abdomen sizes and proportions of previous spider mon be taken into account then? Why should we assume that it's different this time?
>>
>>29549183
>And I think they're clearly marking on BubbleSpider1 and 2.
But they're not. There's clear depth to them. They're not just flat textures on a surface. And they clearly match up with the first stage.

>Why does it need to be consistent?
Why shouldn't it be? Literally every Pokemon in the dex is facing toward the viewer or to the side. Not totally backwards.

>Ok, so why shouldn't the abdomen sizes and proportions of previous spider mon be taken into account then?
Because they're not the same Pokemon you retard. Pokemon take creative liberties going from a real creature to a fictional one. They never will and never have had consistent anatomy.
>>
>>29549241
>clear depth

Uhuh, why does having depth mean they're not fake?

> And they clearly match up with the first stage.

So? The 1st stage is backwards, too.

>Literally every Pokemon in the dex is facing toward the viewer or to the side.

Why does it need to be consistent? They're not the same Pokemon.

>Because they're not the same Pokemon you retard.

So you agree that Cradily and Masquerain having forward-facing fake faces doesn't count as an argument as to whether this thing is facing one way or the other?
>>
>>29549332
>Uhuh, why does having depth mean they're not fake?
Because they're actual eyes and not just markings.

>So? The 1st stage is backwards, too.
No it's not. It's facing forward. It doesn't even HAVE eyes on the spot where the actual spider's would be, and if it did it would be facing downward.

>Why does it need to be consistent? They're not the same Pokemon.
Because the way they put the Pokemon in the dex and the way they design the Pokemon are two different things.

>So you agree that Cradily and Masquerain having forward-facing fake faces doesn't count as an argument as to whether this thing is facing one way or the other?
No. Because I'm talking about their orientation in the dex. Not their design.

Not for the dex there isn't. And there's still no E V I D E N C E for assuming this.

They just didn't feel like making it evolve. That's all there is to it. Not every cute thing needs to evolve. Luvdisc and the pikaclones certainly don't.

>>29540121
I was wondering if this might be a Sun exclusive, with the medusoid/anemone/urchin thing being in Moon. Or the other way around maybe. As they're both two-stage (presumably) Water types that show up later in the dex like Skrelp and Clauncher. I like the evolved form of the spider more. Kind of disappointed by the medusa evo, but it might grow on me.

It's a Pokemon.

It's a Pokemon. They put it on its actual head to make it look like a scuba diver.

It's a Pokemon. And diving bell spiders don't have this anyway.

>>Abdomen is bigger so having a fake face there discourages predators, especially those approaching from behind, bubble magnifying size further
See above.

>>'Fangs' could easily be spinners
They could even more easily be fangs.

there's no evidence here. It's literally just you being autistic and thinking pokemon needs to match to the real life animal, which is kind of fucking funny because you're assuming it has face markings even though the real spider doesn't. Your logic isn't even consistent with itself.

There is 0 reason to assume it's face markings considering the pre-evo doesn't have any other set of eyes.

Actual eyes. Facing forward. Scuba diving theme. This is evidence. "Not muh real animal" isn't.

No, that's you. Nice try though.

There is 0 reason to assume the pre-evo isn't also backwards and so you can't see its real set of eyes.

Do you see eyes here you faggot? Being backwards doesn't even have anything to do with it because the head is on TOP of the body.

>>Actual eyes
>Scuba diving theme
Not assumptions. The pre-evo clearly has eyes and a mouth and it's holding up a bubble with its legs to resemble a scuba diving helmet.
>>
>>29550124
Your arguments fell the second this post was brought up >>29544945
There's just as much evidence of fangs or eyes being on the lower body of the pre-evo as there are that the face of the final evolution are just markings. You can't even SEE something to resemble a mouth there.
>>
>>29550285
>Do you see eyes here you faggot?

No, because they are facing away from you. That's what being backwards means. Have you ever seen something from behind?

>Being backwards doesn't even have anything to do with it because the head is on TOP of the body.

So it can't be backwards because you say the head is on top so it's not backwards, therefore the top is the head. Nice logical reasoning.

>Not assumptions.

Uhuh

>The pre-evo clearly has eyes and a mouth

The pre-evo clearly has eye markings and a hole for shooting thread.

>it's holding up a bubble with its legs to resemble a scuba diving helmet.

Resembling a scuba helmet doesn't mean it has to be its actual head. It's a Pokemon, it's not a literal scuba diver.
>>
>>29550379
>No, because they are facing away from you.

WHY though? You're literally just making random fuck conclusions with 0 evidence to back it up and just going "nuh uh! you can't technically prove me wrong!"

>So it can't be backwards because you say the head is on top so it's not backwards,
The head being on top and not behind mean there's no reason you shouldn't be able to see the eyes.

>The pre-evo clearly has eye markings and a hole for shooting thread.

They're not eye markings though. And the hole doesn't even match up with the real spider anatomy you like looking at so much.

>Resembling a scuba helmet doesn't mean it has to be its actual head.
But it is its actual head. Because it has a face and no face anywhere else.

Muh assumptions

>Because it has a face and no face anywhere else.

Because you can't see the face because it is facing away from you.
