:altaria-mega:
Mega being Revolved: Mega Altaria
New Pokémon Name: Altodracarys (Altostratus/Altocumulus are types of clouds, while also being a pun on Alto singing)
Type of Pokemon: Evo
Stats: 75/70/90/70/105/80 -> 90/75/90/90/150/60 [+15/+5/+0/+20/+45/-20]
Typing: Dragon/Fairy
Abilities: Fluffy / Pixilate
Movepool Additions:
:swablu: Charge Beam, Charm, Gust, Powder Snow, Soak, Wing Attack
:altaria: Air Slash, Blizzard, Body Press, Boomburst, Muddy Water, Psychic Noise, Sparkling Aria, Thunder, Thunderbolt
:altaria-mega: Bleakwind Storm, Misty Explosion, Misty Terrain, Moonlight, Sandsear Storm, Springtide Storm, Wildbolt Storm
Niche: Storm cloud Altaria becoming the Storm-Bringing evolution. Maintains access to a lot of utility, such as Cotton Guard + Body Press, allowing it to act as a solid defensive choice with good offensive options. Getting all four genie storm moves gives it an excellent range of coverage. Fluffy allows it to be an excellent defensive option, though Pixilate Boomburst is the big selling point. While this will hit hard, the low Speed and average Special Attack, as well as no boosting options, will limit its ability to break through resists. This will be an excellent bulky Pokemon with multiple options to deal with major threats.
:ampharos-mega:
Mega being Revolved: Mega Ampharos
New Pokémon Name: Mjolnilamb (Mjolnir, hammer of Thor)
Type of Pokemon: Evo
Stats: 90/75/85/115/90/55 -> 120/120/90/75/90/60 [+30/+45/+5/-40/+0/+5]
Typing: Electric/Fairy
Abilities: Cotton Down / Mold Breaker
Movepool Additions:
:mareep: Baby-Doll Eyes, Draining Kiss, Nuzzle, Parabolic Charge, Spark, Zing Zap
:ampharos: Body Press, Earthquake, Rising Voltage, Tail Glow, Tail Slap, Thunderclap, Volt Tackle
:ampharos-mega: Alluring Voice, Aqua Tail, Fire Lash, Misty Terrain, Moonblast, Moonlight, Play Rough, Power Whip
Niche: I removed Fairy from Audino, so it is only fair I give it to someone else. After all, we will have a lot more Mega Dragons down the line, and not nearly as many Fairies. Fairy also pairs well with the design moreso than Dragon I would argue. Finally, Tail Glow on the Pokemon that has had a glowing tail since it was introduced. The base form benefits from Tail Glow and Thunderclap, but the evolution will be a physical attacker that still has access to a STAB priority move if it so desires. A Physical Electric/Fairy is something the format does not have, as Tapu Koko is normally a Special Attacker. Gets a lot of Tail and Tail-adjacent attacking moves to give it more tools to work with.
:audino-mega:
Mega being Revolved: Mega Audino
New Pokémon Name: Doctrspectr
Type of Pokemon: Evo
Stats: 103/60/86/60/86/50 -> 123/84/96/84/96/42 [+20/+24/+10/+24/+10/-8]
Typing: Normal/Dark
Abilities: Healer / Regenerator / Defiant
Movepool Additions:
:audino: Assurance, Astonish, Cosmic Power, Dizzy Punch, Follow Me, Headbutt, Hypnosis, Milk Drink, Mimic, Natural Gift, Psychic Noise, Purify, Quick Attack, Recycle, Rock Climb, Stored Power, Weather Ball
:audino-mega: Beat Up, Dark Pulse, Destiny Bond, Dream Eater, Embargo, Fake Out, Fake Tears, False Surrender, Flatter, Foul Play, Hex, Lash Out, Leech Life, Memento, Nasty Plot, Night Daze, Nightmare, Ominous Wind, Parting Shot, Payback, Power Trick, Pursuit, Quash, Shadow Punch, Shadow Sneak, Snarl, Sucker Punch, Switcheroo, Taunt, Thief, Torment, Trump Card, Will-O-Wisp
Niche: Not only does the base form get Eviolite Regen which is already great. Evo now is Normal/Dark with regen, being 4x weak to Fighting but still a decent offensive/defensive combo. This new form instead takes the doctor inspiration of the base form and evolves into a form of mad scientist with all of the new tools at its disposal. Most of the moves above are likely to be just for flavour, but a lot of these would prove to be quite useful, such as Milk Drink, Hex, and Parting Shot.
:lopunny-mega:
Mega being Revolved: Mega Lopunny
New Pokémon Name: Jumpinjak (Jump + jackrabbit + jumping jacks)
Type of Pokemon: Evo
Stats: 65/76/84/54/96/105 -> 96/104/84/54/96/121 [+31/+28/+0/+0/+0/+16]
Typing: Normal/Fighting
Abilities: Cute Charm / Scrappy / Limber
Movepool Additions:
:buneary: Follow Me, Knock Off, Play Nice, Nature Power
:lopunny: Body Slam, Double-Edge, Karate Chop, Mach Punch, Quick Guard, Stomp, Superpower, Wake-Up Slap
:lopunny-mega: Axe Kick, Blaze Kick, Bulk Up, Final Gambit, Smelling Salts, Submission, Trop Kick, Victory Dance, Vital Throw
Niche: Was considering making this just a diet Mega Lopunny. But now with this stat spread I realized I could give it the best Fighting move it could ask for: Victory Dance. 104 Attack means it relies on setup to get strong, but has a solid Speed to work with.
