SWF-Dex: Make Your Own Pokemon!

flyinfilipino · Dec 1, 2010

Random Pokemon idea that I've had for a while but just sketched up really quick:

Another bat! Or a flying fox. Just wanted to get the creativity flowing again. Any ideas for a good typing, good ability, etc.? I was thinking Dark/Flying, specially-oriented, fast, and with an ability that has something to do with the sun.

Terywj [태리] · Dec 1, 2010

While somewhat generic, Dark / Flying seems like it would be the most fitting typing for the little guy. :3

I'm thinking a small movepool with 65 / 60 / 75 / 100 / 85 / 115 for a base stat spread?
A fitting ability could be Solar Power, where his strength is raised in sunlight but he suffers residual damage from it - because he is a bat after all.

Solar Power is the right idea (harmful side effect for being in the sun), but maybe we could come up with a more customized ability. How cutting his base Special Attack, and giving him an ability that doubles his Special Attack as long as the sunlight isn't harsh?

Terywj [태리] · Dec 1, 2010

So like.

Type: Dark / Flying
Base Stats: 65 / 60 / 75 / 50 / 85 / 115
Ability: Mindmap - Doubles Special attack stat.

Please feel free to come up with a better name than "Mindmap."

Either that, or keep his Special Attack at 100+ and have his ability cut it in half when the sun shines. Which one of those would be better?

Also, the ability name could be Sun Aversion, or Dark Power (the opposite of Solar Power?).

Perhaps we could add built-in Leftovers recovery too?

Moozle · Dec 1, 2010

I'd say give him 60 sp. attack and the ability doubles sp. attack except in the sun.

We never though of a name for this pokemon that I made. Any suggestions?

How about...

*drumroll*

Eeriel? (eerie + eel)

I guess it's probably not really an eel, but....

Terywj [태리] · Dec 2, 2010

Well Mindmap is more of a Huge Power / Pure Power clone so something like Dark Power or Eclipse or something along those lines? Doubles his Sp. Atk. stat until the Sun comes out is a good idea though, Moozle.

Ooh, I like the sound of Eclipse. It even calls to mind vampires.

Now for a name for the Pokemon itself....

JOE! · Dec 3, 2010

I need to get mah scanner working again, I have concepts for 6 new pokemon....

Terywj [태리] · Dec 3, 2010

I have the drawing ready for this Pokemon, but the interesting theory behind it is that the base stats were determined by a random number generator. That said, the fitting ability I decided to give it was - Inconsistency.

Rangera
Type: Normal / Ghost
Ability: Inconsistency
Dream World: Unaware
Base Stats: 97 / 99 / 124 / 76 / 75 / 81

So through the generator, Rangera seems like a physically bulky attack with mediocre base Sp. Atk. and Sp. Def. stats, and carries okay Speed.

Offensive Movepool: Return, Double-Edge, Crush Claw, Fire Punch, Thunderpunch, Ice Punch, Shadow Ball, Shadow Claw, Night Shade, Level Field

Support Movepool: Calm Mind, Will-o-Wisp, Thunder Wave, Skill Swap, Snatch, Claw Sharpen, Curse, Glare

flyinfilipino · Dec 3, 2010

Rangera seems interesting, and it has artwork by Tery? :cool:

(I'd take Glare out of its movepool; unless it's a snake, it wouldn't really fit, and it already has Thunder Wave anyway)

Terywj [태리] · Dec 3, 2010

By "artwork' I mean my pathetic doodles which don't come close to being called a drawing, but if I can get a scanner I should be able to put it up.

Neherazade · Dec 5, 2010

but... but... but... but... what does inconsistency do!?!!!!11!?!11!!?11!eleven?

God this post made me want the rep system back so I could appropriately use it here.

At the end of every turn, you get +2 in one random stat and -1 in a different random stat

lol rep system.

kk ty. is that a new 5th gen ability I'm unaware (lol unaware) of? or is it one that SWFdex came up with (that refuses to be found by the search function)?

It's a Dream World ability from Gen V.

Locow

Blegh, the sprite could use a little work. You guys are free to take a shot at it.

Terywj [태리] · Dec 9, 2010

Spire. Locow is. Beyond words.

I think a stat spread of:
108 / 102 / 122 / 75 / 75 / 75

Fantastic physical bulk with manageable physical attack, while the remaining special and speed stats are below average. Not sure if this is what you intended, but I tried. ^^

I really like the art, though.

Spire · Dec 9, 2010

I intended nothing statistically. I'm just an artist

You guys can figure that stuff out.

And thanks!

flyinfilipino · Dec 9, 2010

Low Calorie Cow!

also Loco Cow

Any relation to Miltank?

Terywj [태리] · Dec 9, 2010

Lowcow
Type: Normal / Poison
Ability: Poison Heal / Thick Fat
Dream World: Reckless
Base Stats: 108 / 102 / 125 / 75 / 75 / 75

Offensive Movepool: Stomp, Rollout, Poison Jab, Sludge Bomb, Fire Punch, Thunderpunch, Ice Punch, Rockslide, Double Kick, Mega Kick, Mega Punch, Iron Tail, Body Slam
Support Movepool: Gastro Acid, Milk Drink, Curse, Focus Energy, Roar

Neherazade · Dec 9, 2010

did anyone actually click the link to his DA page?

locow is a werewolf-cow... thing. I assume his poision type is in reference to either the were-cow affliction or to his Mad-Cow-Disease... not to any actual poisonous attributes.

It seems like he'd probably have moves more along the line of crunch and poison fang, rather than gastro acid, sludge bomb and poison jab... Maybe that's just me tho.

Just another thought then... maybe he'd have some sort of ability (werecow?) where biting attacks change his targets ability to match his own. (kinda like the way mummy works in genV)

Spire · Dec 10, 2010

@flyinfilipino - no relation to Miltank. And lol at Low Cal Cow. Hadn't thought of that one!
@Tery - read below vvv
@Neherazade - thanks for clarifying that. YEAH. Not poison like Muk poison, poison like disease. Crunch and poison fang would be perfect. Don't shy from giving him a number of dark type moves, because he was originally Normal/Dark before the concept influenced the change to Normal/Poison.

I added some more moves which match said editions of Locow. Tell me what you think.

EDIT: Removed due to lack of interest.

Terywj [태리] · Dec 10, 2010

The cover legendaries each have descriptions leaving connotations to the previous installments in the Pokemon series. :3

JOE! · Dec 11, 2010

q: what is the "Data" type?

flyinfilipino · Dec 11, 2010

Some of those ideas are really interesting, UberMario. That's a lot of dogs. o_o A lot of ideas in general, kudos.

Now that I'm done with exams for the most part, I might take a shot at sketching a couple of those.

EDIT: By the way, I really like the concept behind Roastoad, I like the potential ability of Pezzt, and I love the names Roachid, Fleap, and Accelerot/Speedah. Come to think of it, Velocelot is a cool-sounding name too. Yay physics

UberMario · Dec 11, 2010

JOE! said:

It's a new type which I created that the Porygon line would be moved over to. It has a resistance to Normal, Ground, and Steel, and a weakness to Water and Electricity. It'd have several new attacks, but at least one old attack would have a behavioral change when used with a Data type: Minimize. When Minimize is used by a Data-type, they will exit the battlefield and be replaced by another Pokemon from the player's lineup, which will choose an attack at random (Minimizes CAN be stacked for mindgames, until there's only one pokemon left of course, in which case it will fail), however, after three turns of using the "substitute", each following turn will result in a 50% chance of the last Data-type to use Minimize swapping in after the previous pokemon is done attacking. If the "substitute" pokemon is KO'd, the Minimize-using Data-type will automatically return to the battlefield, regardless whether or not there are other Pokemon in your party.

Thanks! Yeah, I did have a lot of dogs, I just thought it was time for a new Pokemon line similar to Eevee's, because there's only so much you can do with cats. lol

Sweet! If any in particular come to mind, I can send you a "rough draft" of their designs and a slightly more detailed description of what I pictured them to be.

Velocelot is a really good idea, may I use it? And I'm thinking about renaming Serun to "Swerval", just because, looking back at what I wrote, Serun doesn't seem like it fits.

EDIT: Wow, I have a lot of url tags and descriptions to fix, I guess I rushed through ~~some~~ a lot of them without proof-reading. lol

Spire · Dec 12, 2010

But Eevee is like a catfox. I'm pretty sure it was designed to be the perfect hybrid between the two, thus being this nice little bundle of "cute evolution concept incarnate" as a mammal because cats and dogs are the most widespread pets. But its evolutions are a tad bit more feline than canine. I guess that's because feline traits are more dominant. You can't merge a sleek, majestic cat with a big, bulky dog. In order to find a medium between the two, you basically recognize that there are also sleek, majestic dogs as well, so when you hybridize that with a cat, you get something that innately looks more feline.

Yeah, I'll let you know when I'm in a more creative mood.

I was feeling a little inspired earlier and

1) colored in the flying fox I drew up earlier (with my poor coloring skills)

and 2) drew up an idea for a Corsola pre-evo: Corsalin!

Pokedex:
- Its brittle horn breaks off easiily but regenerates quickly. It was once used as a form of currency.
- Its exoskeleton is prized for its exquisite beauty. It is said to have inspired an art form centuries ago.

Terywj [태리] · Dec 13, 2010

That Corsola pre-evolution is so cute~~~
The color scheme doesn't quite match Corsola's, however. Then again, it's not like every Pokemon evolutionary line needs to synch in color.

flyinfilipino · Dec 13, 2010

True; though it does vaguely match shiny Corsola's coloration. That wasn't what I was thinking of when I thought of its color scheme, however.

Spire · Dec 14, 2010

I really like your style flyinfilipino. Your Pokémon feel like they fit in well with the new gens.

I hope that one day, we (as in all of us) can muster up a very well designed 150-creature Pokédex, namely the sprites.

#HBC | ZoZo · Dec 14, 2010

I namesearched and now I'm posting here.

Thanks Spire! I hope we can iron out a good Dex too. I'm not a spriter, but I guess there are no shortages of those around here.

Oh.

Well anyway, I went back and redrew and colored some of my older entries (some of my ideas ended up appearing in the 5th gen, like my Fire/Ghost lantern). Their stats and moves and stuff could use some updating too, I guess, with the additions of new 5th gen moves and abilities.
