Say hello to the potential new alolan forms of johto Pokémon
>>32733727
Could hey salvage some of those shitmons, or are they just going to be complacent with adding a secondary ice/dark type?
Used SM logic of
- no legends
- no megas
- no gen 4 evolutions
- no babies
- no aquatic life
>>32733727
a bunch of those are already in alola they would probably give pokemon not from the local dex alola forms
>>32733732
I can see hoothoot line becoming snow owls. And ice/flying is a bad typing lol
>>32733732
Muk Marowak Persian Ninetales and Sandlash(arguablly)were saved
>Crobat, Chinchou, Lanturn, Belossom, Marill, Azumarill, Politoad, Wooper, Quagsire, Slowking, Quilfish, Corsola, Remoraid, Octillery, Mantine, Kingdra, Hitmontop, Blissey
Why are they excluded?
>>32733735
This is an alternate dimension meaning diff things could have evolved over time and have diff native pokes
I could only see the Spinerak Line, Ledyba Line, and Snubbull Line if they make it so you can only get the original forms in the first version to encourage people to buy both but...that feels silly
I think you can include the ones that are local to Alola too (the starters, Lanturn,etc.)
There's going to be a new expanded regional dex anyway so they could use that opportunity to add them in
>>32733753
There is actually a Blue Granbull in Sun/Moon
Considering Alolan Marowak and Exeggutor, I don't think it's unreasonable to have a couple of the evos of Gen 1 Pokemon as Alolan forms. That's basically Crobat and Bellossom, though.
>shuckle
>dunsparce
>delibird
>magcargo
>smeargle
Would love to see how they handle these guys. Being shitmons and/or gimmickmons they have to get creative.
>>32733743
All had/were evolutions/prevolutions/megas in later games.
For SM all the pokemon that got alolan forms were pokemon that hadn't got shit since gen 1.
>>32733743
>>32733799
Sorry, looking now wooper/quagsire, quilifish, remoraid/octillary, corsola, and chinchou/lanturn should be possible. Some think pokemon on the alolan dex won't gen new forms, hence corsola and chinchou/lanturn.
>>32733799
>Shuckle
>Shitmon
>>32733840
Nah, I said and/OR gimmickmon. Shuckle is my all time favorite pokemon, I'm pretty hyped if it gets a new form.
>>32733727
>Magcargo's amazing alolan form!
>Now its a slow ice/rock
>>32733799
Since Mina has a "paint" theme, and uses fairy types, make an Alolan Smeargle that's Fairy with Trace ability
>>32733727
Starters, Crobat, lanturn, bellossom, Azumarill, Politoed, Quagsire, Slowking, Unown, Qwilfish, Corsola, Octillery, Mantine, Kingdra, Hitmontop, and Blissey are also possibilities
>>32733799
but Raichu got an alolan form despite having a pre-evolution from gen 2
>>32733888
Raichu is the exception as it is the evolution of pikachu. Of course this case would be special.
>>32733727
if you're going to make one of these at least be objective. you're missing some like chinchou/lanturn, wooper/quagsire, remoraid/octillery.
>>32733882
>crobat, bellossom, azumarill, politoed, mantine, kingdra, blissey, hitmontop
>cross-evos
>when in most cases their pre-evos have none
>starters
>>starters
>>32733734
>no babies
What is alolan raichu?
>>32733727
>sun bear form Teddiursa and Ursaring
>>32734412
special snowflake
>>32733873
Does that imply Mina's art is actually traced?
>tfw all the Alolan forms of Kantomons we got were shit and uninteresting
>tfw we will never get good concepts for regional forms
>>32733859
>not Ice/Dark with Gluttony
>>32733739
It depends. If they become fast glass cannons with tinted lens, they can be good
>>32733814
Dude no aquatic life
>>32734412
>What is alolan raichu?
Not alolan pichu of course
>>32734384
No aquatic life
>>32734428
>Alolan Muk
>Alolan Exeggutor
Cmon m8 those were amazing
>>32733799
>glass cannon Pure power base 170 atk shuckle
>10 def
>10 hp
Make it happen
>>32734476
fuck off maxie, you've had your games.
>>32733859
>Slow bulky ice/bug
I feel like there will be at least one exception to these rules like starter, cross evo or legendary. Maybe Ho-oh, that will be reviled with the Ashinme 20th movie
>>32733727
Ledyba, Spinarak, Bonsly, Snubbull, Skarmory, Delibird, Smeargle, and Miltank are all in the Alola Dex already. Slugma and Macargo are statues in the Poke Pelago hotsprings.
What areas do they have to expand on in Alola? (aside from new islands) Volcano Park could have tunnel system, the stepped pool area has a cave entrance, not sure what else.
>>32734553
If it's an alternate story, there's nothing stopping them from giving Pokemon already in the SM dex an Alolan form. As of now the only ones who won't get Alolan forms are Pokemon with a mega. And even with those they could bullshit their way around it by making the megastone only work on the non-Alolan form.
>>32733727
Aloan stantler, FUCK IM READY
>>32733727
>>32733734
Remove mons with no evolutionary relatives
Remove gimmickmons like Smeargle/Wobbuffet
Remove Spinarak, Ledyba, Snubbull for already being in SM
Add Wooper and Remoraid.
Phanpy and Teddiursa seem like the most likely candidates to me. Phanpy is Silver-exclusive (alongside Vulpix and Meowth) and Teddiursa is its Gold-exclusive counterpart (GF might switch to the red team for complete re-typing).
I also think Natu/Xatu is very likely, if they make any new Alola forms at all.
Regional forms are quite possibly the best gimmick they've ever come up with, more than anything I'm excited to see what new ones there will be in US/UM
Did any of the old ones end up being meta though? I know alola marowak was actually being used for a while but I kinda quit playing competitive so idk if any are still OU
Fixed
>>32733746
There's this, and they could always introduce a new island or islands where these theoretical Alolan form Pokemon could exclusively appear.
>>32736761
tyranitar has a mega.
