Flavor: Based off the Hibiscus moscheutos, M05ch3u705 used to be a lazy aphid that could be found on the trees of Lindwurm's swamp, feeding on leaves ever so innocently. However, exposure to modern technology has turned M05ch3u705 into an absolute hacker, capable of overwriting databases with programs that depict falling flowers in seconds, and it's personality took a 360 degree turn, being a cheerful fellow who's always full of zest. The hoodie it wears is said to be made from the shedded mud of Lindwurm, and is streamlined enough to hide M05ch3u705's identity from those that would dare to oppose it. Owing to it's adorable nature, this species is female only!
Weight: 2.4 kg.
Explanation of Role: This Grass/Bug supporter with Grassy Surge surprises everyone by also having access to Electric Surge as well. She can easily support Pokémon with access to Grass and Electric STAB moves, as well as giving her a third STAB herself, abeit one that has no effect on Lindwurm. She also has access to Sticky Web!

Flavor: How did Lindwurm become the Tier Sovereign it was today? No-one knows for sure, but there are many theories about it. One theory explains that it became this way because it's egg was raised by an Ascaleet, a Pokémon that makes it's home in snowy mountains, taking in Dragon-type Pokémon eggs who have been separated from their parents and raising them as their own, helping them keep warm with it's slender skin by wrapping around it. Those warmed by this cold skin will grow up into thriving and healthy dragons that are said to always have good luck wherever they go. Should it not be raising any eggs, it will instead hold an Ascaleet egg around it, ensuring that each generation always thrives. This Pokémon is an extremely careful parent, being unable to bring itself to harm any of the Dragons it has raised no matter what, and will often visit them no matter how far away they are, as is the case of it visiting Lindwurm today...but having to face a Dragon it spent so hard raising might be it's downfall in the metagame today.
Weight: 421.4 kg.
Explanation of Role: How does one make a good Ice-type in a metagame where the top Pokémon is 4x weak to Ice? Simple: Give it a crippling drawback that basically makes it unable to harm any Lindwurms at all. It's a powerful all around mixed attacker that can use some status moves such as Toxic and Roar to befuddle it's opponents, but it can simply be walled by sending a Dragon out. You can also change the enemy's type with Soak...then your opponents are in trouble. (But is it really worth the moveslot?)
Pokemon: Napoyag (Napoleon + Voyage)
Type:
Abilities: Defiant/Sharpness/Stalwart
Stats: 81/90/80/54/81/80 (466)
Viable Moves:
Aqua Cutter, Double Iron Bash, Psycho Cut, X-Scissor, Brick Break, Body Press, Iron Head, Hard Press, Waterfall, Liquidation
Aura Sphere, Focus Blast, Air Slash, Psychic, Psyshock, Flash Cannon, Steel Beam, Surf, Hydro Pump, Chilling Water
Swords Dance, Iron Defense, Rain Dance
Full Movepool: Cut, Water Gun, Sharpen, After You, Slash, Fury Cutter, Counter, Aqua Cutter, Double Iron Bash, Psycho Cut, X-Scissor, Brick Break, Body Press, Iron Head, Hard Press, Waterfall, Liquidation, Aura Sphere, Focus Blast, Air Slash, Psychic, Psyshock, Flash Cannon, Steel Beam, Surf, Hydro Pump, Chilling Water, Swords Dance, Iron Defense, Rain Dance, Reversal, Upper Hand, Metal Claw, Air Cutter, Whirlpool, Spite, Attract, Endure, Facade, Helping Hand, Protect, Rest, Sleep Talk, Substitute, Snore, Take Down, Tera Blast, Hidden Power
Flavor: It's said that every time a captain sinks down with their ship, their soul reincarnates as a Napoyag. This Pokémon takes the personality of the captain that became it and amplifies it to the max, making them want nothing more than to conquer other lands and make them part of their territory, doing so with it's cutlass arm that can cut through solid diamond. It tends to prefer areas that are nice and flat and rich in nutrients...which makes Lindwurm's swamp a perfect target for it!
Weight: 43.4 kg.
Explanation of Role: A good ol' Physical setup sweeper that resists a lot of things, but dies easily to Lindwurm's Earthquakes. Watch out for it's Double Iron Bash!
