Hmmmmm...Apologies for the one-liner, but if someone can suggest a better name for Kafend I would greatly appreciate. The themes for it are last resort attacking, stances, rocks, and (of course) a butterfly + cocoon. I can't think of anything better myself, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Beedrill Line: RedwoodRogue 's Hornetox

NOTE: Removal of Skill Swap is purely to stop any chances of Shields Down being removed (even though I think it doesn't affect Shields Down), and it didn't feel right to keep it anyway.
Name: Kafend-Offense
Typing: Rock, Flying
Height: 1.1m
Weight: 35kg
Abilities: Shields Down
Stats: 55/110/50/60/50/70 (395)
Flavor/Design: A Metapod that is larger and rockier. When the shell is destroyed, it looks like a larger Butterfree with stones and shards on its wings and body.
Pokédex entry: A Metapod that has focused on protecting itself from predators. When it feels threatened, however, it destroys its shell and uses the hardened rocks from its cocoon as weapons. These rocks are sharp enough to cut through most metals. It has a much larger and thicker cocoon than regular Metapod, partly due to rocks, but these can also be aligned on its wings in order to seriously injure prey when under threat.
(Reason why it has this is because Butterfree has no Mega so this felt like the only appropriate response, while keeping it to the theme of a secondary evolution.)
Competitive Description: A powerful setup sweeper with access to high BP Rock-type moves, as well as Dual Wingbeat for Flying-type STAB, and while lacking in coverage it still has access to U-turn and Bug Bite for those who want to use it for some reason despite the lack of reason to, and reflect for supporting other Pokémon when not in danger, or instead itself. It also lacks in bulk outside of its Cocoon form, so will be susceptible to even the weakest of Bullet Punches or Accelerocks.

Banshigen (Banshee + Pigeon) (Female only)
Types: Normal / Ghost
Height: 1.1 m
Weight: 20 kg
New Moves: Shadow Ball, Psychic, Hyper Voice, Dark Pulse, Perish Song, Spite, Snarl, Screech, Nasty Plot, Disarming Voice, Echoed Voice, Destiny Bond (12)
Removed Moves: Wing Attack, Brave Bird, Air Slash, Hurricane, Sky Attack, Aerial Ace, Air Cutter, Detect, Mirror Move, Pluck, Twister, Fly (12)
Abilities: Keen Eye | Tangled Feet | Soundproof
Stats: 83 / 70 / 80 / 80 / 75 / 91 (479 BST) (Atk and SpA swapped, -10 Speed, +5 Def, +5 SpDef
Flavor/Design: Female Pidgeotto exposed to the Dusk Stone will evolve into Banshigen. These nocturnal Pokemon are known for their high-pitched shrieks and the ability to perfectly mimic other sounds. They have become masters of sound manipulation, using their mimicry to lure in prey and stun it with loud screams. Banshigen lost many of the powered flying capabilities of their Pidgeotto predecessors, and are instead skillful at sprinting up tree trunks and gliding from tree to tree.
Competitive Description: Its unique Normal/Ghost typing allows Banshigen to be a phenomenal Ghost check, being immune to opposing Ghost-type attacks and Focus Blast. Thanks to its newfound Soundproof ability, a strategy unique to this Pokemon is the ability to use Perish Song without placing a countdown timer on itself, letting Banshigen stay on the field without worrying about impending doom. Its newly-gained Hyper Voice and Shadow Ball are both great, spammable STABs, and Nasty Plot boosts the power level of these attacks to scary levels. It can also retain momentum with U-turn.

Mega Banshigen
Types: Normal / Ghost
Height: 1.3 m
Weight: 30 kg
Abilities: Punk Rock (would prefer a Ghostly version of the name, but this is the only existing ability that has what I want for Mega Banshigen)
Stats: 83 / 70 / 110 / 100 / 105 / 111 (579 BST) (+30 Def, +20 SpA, +30 SpDef, +20 Spe)
Flavor/Design: Mega Banshigen's sound-based attacks are amplified to ear-splitting levels, so much so that trainers are forced to wear earplugs for their own safety.
Competitive Description: Mega Banshigen's Hyper Voice becomes immensely powerful thanks to Punk Rock, gaining a 30% attack boost. Its other sound moves including Snarl, Disarming Voice, and Echoed Voice also benefit. Nasty Plot sets are dangerously threatening, with +2 Hyper Voice shredding through most targets.
i can promise you now that its best that it stays that way, and its not weak tbh at all. most sets will prefer adamant anyway, since they would prefer to tank the hit, and then would go from there. 350*2atk + 239*2spe is scary, even without decent coverage (i think its only walled by steel types, but its a late game sweeper anyway so doesnt matter).tho Stacragus feels a little weak.
