I think the latter. The titans are all single stage, and clearly were designed for being massively increased in size. I think it was simply too much overlap between the two designs.
Maybe earth eater got repurposed into Orthworm though.

Dont know if its the right place to ask, but do we know if PLA mons will be added into showdown with the updated gen 9 movesets rigth away or will we have to wait until they drop with home? I know they will be banned from OU
Could also maybe have been a parallel for Scream Tail as the future side’s “cute, diminutive” Paradox mon? AFAIK wherever Scream Tail appears in Scarlet is where Iron Bundle appears in Violet.
I think it’s interesting how there’s really no obvious parallelism between the Pokémon that received ancient and future variants. Really does feel like such a random grab bag of species.
Welp, turns out that's not happening. I had asked someone that was trying to evolve Pawmo to try it out with a Power Anklet and even after going sicko mode on over 20 mons, its Speed was pretty low.
53 at Lv. 22 low, to be precise. Neutral Nature for Speed purposes, and unknown IVs because ain't nobody doing that kind of calc on random ass leak streams lmao.
Looks like either Power Items don't work with Let's Go, or Let's Go doesn't give EVs at all.
Vitamins are likely the best bet for cart EV training again.
you probably wouldn't end up with a team as weak to ground as this even if you were making a mono-rock/fire/steel/poison team lmao but its pokemon in-game, i'll be fine most likely.
MAYBE i'll put smthn like Baxcallibur, Gholdengo, Cetitan or Scovillain over Revavroom, depending on how much i actually end up hating the fact that it apparently floats(i really don't like the fact that it floats)

Yeah I'm doing a 3 pokemon mono-ghost challenge run, what about it
good luck playing the game if you plan to not do anything until you get the 999 coins
This made me laugh out loud. This animation was clearly intentional . Someone is having fun. Has big Darkseid energy.
Each Gimmighoul KO nets 50 coins, it'll take a few hours but I'm the kinda guy who super trained for evolution stones in gen 6 gamesgood luck playing the game if you plan to not do anything until you get the 999 coins
Didn’t play the pgl (think that’s what is was called?) mini games for 300 hours to get Gen 6 evolution items to transfer to your games? Smh, what a potato.
Out of these, I've only seen Shinx and Snom.
Snom, predictably, is everywhere in the north mountains.
Shinx is on that rocky maze early game. Near where you fight Titan Klawf
I'll try to find some map screenshots with the area names, but I'm sure the Shinx one was "South Province (Area Three)" because the streamer kept opening the map because they were lost af lmao.
Edit: Yes, the provinces have multiple areas.
Also, I just remembered that Gallade can be found on Glaseado Mountain because of that Sharpness test. The thing about that one is that Glaseado is the entire snow mountain and then some.

Alright, thank you. I'll mark 8 as South Province (Area Three) for now.
Also, I've updated the list with a few more encounters.
Considering that Gyarados' beta design was more worm-like, maybe Okagyarados was going to be callback/revisit to that design? Basically Gyarados but as a Dune-style sand worm.
Earth Eater may have been designed for it and Orthworm, before Okagyarados was eventually retooled into Toedscruel. Mycelium Might was added right after Earth Eater in the ability index.
Also, I can see Orthworm being the reason why Okagyarados got scrapped. There was already a new pokémon thematically similar to it, so GF decided to use those slots to make another land-living lookalike of a Gen I Water-type pokémon.
With all that said, I'm really curious what a Land Magikarp would've looked like.
This might be me, but I’ve noticed cetitan a lot more than baxcalibur in a lot of peoples team postings online. Is anyone else getting the sense that cetitan is the superior ice-type? Not that baxcalibur is bad, but cetitan gives me g-darmanitan vibes, especially with a +2 speed/+1 def from snow (and possibly +6 atk)
While Cetitan has potential, it has the main issue of requiring Snow to do more or less anything... in a metagame that'll be very Sun centric, and without a good Aurora Veil setter either.
A couple people on the forum mentioned the ruinous quartet's abilities have a 25% debuff value. Is there any confirmation of this being the case?
If you've caught any of the following Pokemon in South Province (Area Four), do mention it:
Code:
Growlithe
Slakoth
Gulpin
Spoink
Shinx
Oricorio
Rookidee
Nymble
Pawmi
Klawf
Fidough
DachsbunI can respect that, but I’d counter that the fact the meta will be sun-heavy would be reason to take advantage of the new snow buff to get rid of it. Getting rid of it (and even electric terrain) is as much detrimental to a team losing it as it is having it.
Also, isn’t there a new move that sets the snow and switches out at the same time?
There's no actual berry shop from what we can tell.
You can acquire big chunks of berries occasionally from the rotating market, otherwise it's just about looting them from ground.
By rotating market you mean auctions? Do you know how to reset those auctions so I can buy different berries?
