    We should get an Electric-Rock Pika clone that's also a fossil mon that's the canonical ancestor of all Pika clones. Most of the mammals during the dinosaur times looked like rodents anyway.
    Also, I would definitely scream-sing with Chippu.

      Paradox form called "Rolling Thunder". It's a huge pikachu with super fluffy fur puffed up from electricity that rolls around in a huge fluffy ball of electric destruction.

    • @ballisticbuddha

    I think it's interesting to note that for Pikachu evolving into Raichu in the generation it was released in then getting a pre evolution the next generation
    Marill evolving into Azumarill in the generation it was released in then getting a pre evolution the next generation as well
    The weirdest part about this is that Azurill is the only Pokemon that has connections to the previous two generations where as the rest of the Pokedex for gen3 are all brand new Pokemon evolutionary lines
    Sure there's no official source but it's such an interesting topic that no one really talks about...

    • @FrostGlader
      @FrostGlader Год назад +21

      There was also Wynatt. It’s evolution was introduced in Gen 2. I forgot how to spell it, but it’s pretty infamous from the Anime, being owned by Jessie after she accidentally traded her Lickitung for it.
      Gen 3 also introduced the Incense items. Prior to Gen 9, they were used to breed to get Pokémon that in prior Gens didn’t exist. The concept was greatly expanded in Gen 4.
      Wynatt, Azurill, Mime Jr, Happiny, Budew and Munchlax are I believe the Pokémon that were produced from Incense.

    • @jaschabull2365
      @jaschabull2365 Год назад +1

      Yeah, I think gen 3 is pretty unusual in that it doesn't add any new forms to any gen 1 pokémon, which I think is something it only shares with gen 5, which is unique in not adding new forms to any previous pokémon whatsoever. It's also the only gen that only adds baby forms to the gen right before it.

  • @indisplutably
    @indisplutably Год назад +305

    Have you considered making Chippu much more chipmunk-y? Chipmunks have stripes down their backs that make a perfect place to implement the wave patterns. You could even have different forms for each different wave pattern.
    Also, if you depict Chippu with full cheeks, that would make for a nice nod to the Pikaclone cheeks without it giving off a "bootleg" vibe.
    If you think about the silhouette of a chipmunk and a squirrel, they are in fact *very* different. I think it'd be cool to see a design where you capitalize more on that.

    Had an idea for a little science based Pokémon based on redshift. (Process of light losing energy and decreasing in frequency as it travels through space)
    My idea was the Pokémon would start out a purple/violet color with a fire/psychic typing because it’s high energy. As it evolves it becomes red and gains an ice/dark typing symbolizing it loosing its energy.
    I thought it was pretty cool cuz it changes up the traditional red = fire type and does the opposite. Plus it gives an easy explanation of redshift.

    My first time seeing the term "pika-blue" was in Beckett Pokémon Collector, a somewhat popular unofficial magazine.
