So, on Hisuian stuff, seeing it is for all intents and purposes Sinnoh in the past:
- Growlithe and Voltorb do make sense: One is a dog breed, another is primitive tech. Acceptable.
- Overqwil should had worked like Wyrdeer, and evolve from regular Qwilfish. Hell, the evo method is the same pretty much.
- Sneasler should had worked like Kleavor, being an item-based split evo of regular Sneasel (and, well, it should be Poison/Ice). No need for palette swap Sneasel, no need to rain on Toxicroak's parade being the same but better.
- Quilava has been able to evolve into regular Typhlosion when leveled around Mt.Coronet for 18 years. They really should have gone with Fennekin for the exotic fire starter, rather than something that had always been usable in Sinnoh.
- There were plenty more of gen 1-4 mons that could benefit from an evolution before normal type Machamp. But I've been grumbling about those things since Rhyperior and Porygon-Z. Boy all of those are good Mega concepts.
