It'd probably go to ubers, but each forme could differ in stats, I guess, to make evolutions not as bad.

A Rotom pre-evo... I'm more interested in the name. I mean what'd come before motor? Kind if makes me question if they would really.

I just hope they don't restrict themselves to Gen4/5 pre-/evolutions. I mean sure, we've already seen a Gen 1 evolution (Sylveon), but an eeveelution is different, I think. I don't know, it would be awesome to see evolutions of some older Pokemon as well as newer ones yup.

Well, when you think about it, Gen I and II Pokemon already kind of had their time with 4th gen, y'know? They took things like Magmar, Electabuzz, Gligar, Piloswine and gave them evos and heck, they even turned a slight head towards Gen III and gave the Ralts line a split-evo (as well as give Dusclops an evo). I'm honestly hoping that maybe this generation would lean a bit more towards Gen III for evos than anything else.

Yeah that is true. The Pokemon I would most love to see evolutions for would be Tropius, Simisear, Simisage, Simipour, and Torkoal.

The only reason I really wanna see more Generation I/II evolutions is because, well, after Generation V I feel that the older classic and original generations have been quite neglected.

On a side-note, if Hoenn is introduced as an extra region in X&Y and not as it's own remake I will. freak. out.

I think some generation II pokémon could still use evolutions. And some of Gen 1's would be interesting, a Dugtrio evolution that has fused a la Magnezone. Also a Golduck evolution that's Water/Psychic... see gen 1 can still be played around with.

I think they will. I don't see why they'd revisit the earlier ones, when they already did kind of do that in the past. :(

Honestly although Unova was the new start and everything, I'd still like to see some older generations get some new evolutions. I do doubt it will occur, but I would love it. A Water/Psychich Golduck evolution definitely would be awesome, seeing as it just screems Water/Psychic.

I see no one's talking about that Jynx evolution that's spreading around in 4chan.

As for the Golduck evo, he really doesn't need one because of his "jack of all stats" distribution, making him capable of withstanding non-SE hard hits. He also has access to Focus Blast to counter Steel types.

I misread Golduck as Golurk. Let's have an alternate Golurk evolution! If it was like, Ghost/Flying to be like a real robot, or Ghost/Steel??

I actually want to see a final Golurk evolution rather than a branch evolution... and a Claydoll one while they're at it giving ancient artificial mons that came to live, evolutions.

Golurk is already huge though, what else could it evolve into?

Ghost/Steel wouldn't make it more modern imo. Ghost/electric, maybe, but then it'd lose its useful ground typing :(

I could see how that would work but he would be gigantic.

I think Ghost/Steel is a great typing, only 2 weaknesses as oppose to 5 weaknesses, plus a steel Golurk would look awesome.

It'd look awesome, no doubt, but then I think it might be a little too strong really. I mean I could easily see it being in higher tiers and doing -really- well if it were an evolution of Golurk, which already has amazing attack.
