Flavor: Every swamp needs fireflies...and Lindwurm's is no exception. These ones are very dishonest indeed...wherever they are, everyone around them will always tell lies, even if they are always truthful, but, ironically, some people often employed them to help enforce the truth. The reason why it is such a liar is because the large firefly in the above sprite is actually nothing more than a construct made of flames to deceive predators: The real Pokémon are the tiny fireflies below it...and no-one is aware about this at all.
Weight: 0.2 kg.
Explanation of Role: Despite what the stats and typing might suggest, Fireflie is not a Tier Sovereign version of Volcarona...OK, maybe that's a lie, it's a Tier Sovereign version of Iron Moth! It can run the same moveset as a typical Iron Moth OU set, and while there may be no Booster Energy to patch it up, it does have Immunity to protect itself from Calamity Quake's poison! ...That is, if it doesn't die to Rocks first.
It does not have access to Tail Glow!

Flavor: Legends once told of an ancient Legendary Pokémon who spread the swamps with a single swipe of his staff. People from all over the world once turned to it to help them with their harvests, making sure that the farmlands always stay wet and fresh. But no-one stays immortal forever...eventually, the Legendary Pokémon died of natural causes (Though some argue that a rogue Legendary who supported famine assassinated him instead) and he was entombed within an Ushabti doll in his likeness. However, unknown to anyone, the legendary Pokémon's power possessed the doll, and it still manages the swamps to this day, even though it only moves when no-one is looking...or if it is angered. Clearly, it did not take the fact that Lindwurm made it's own swamp without Sombrek's help well.....
Weight: 43.4 kg.
Explanation of Role: A Special wall that has the godly ability of Magic Guard...on a Pokémon that dies to Lindwurm's Earthquakes. It notably has access to Glitzy Glow, allowing it to attack and set up screens at the same time. It can shock it's opponents by having access to the rarely seen Splishy Splash, which if you remember from Let's Go is a Water-type move that causes Paralysis!

Flavor: Ugghhhhhhhhhhh...Do I have to?! That, is a perfect explanation of Jarnold. Once, this creature from a black lagoon was one of the most feared Pokémon of the swamps. It could camouflage within any environment, and it's ability to survive in both land and sea made it a terrifying predator...until it went extinct after a brave team of hunters who piloted a ship called the Rita volunteered to hunt the creature down after it was discovered that it was making Poliwags an endangered species. The years passed...and tall tales of Jarnold were told by many people, but...you see, Jarnold mainly lived in Kanto. You know, the region that only had one Ghost-type line? Thus, stories of Jarnold soon became overused...and these woes have brought Jarnold to life again as a Normal/Ghost type. It's said that if you see it in a swamp, it is the only terror the swamp ever has!
Weight: 51.4 kg.
Explanation of Role: Like a little fish, Jarnold, normally an all-rounded speedster, serves...as bait. It has the godly Normal/Ghost typing, but guess who has Dark-type moves and really good stats? That's right, Lindwurm! Little does it know that your opponent switching out to it to counter Jarnold is exactly what you planned...That's when you use Mean Look to prevent Lindwurm from switching out, and by then it's too late for it to call off it's Dark-type attack, killing Jarnold and allowing a Lindwurm counter like Frigoberry or Mammeh to come in for the kill without the worry of being killed first!
