Older Pokemon that could be Paradox Pokemon

[Palamon]

Like, for example, Diancie being a mutated Carbink. I think it could be by definition be considered a paradox Pokemon.

& Spiky Eared Pichu, who travelled through time and can't evolve (or leave hg/ss)

What are some Pokemon from past gens you think could be classified as Paradox Pokemon?

 

[Devalue]

Hm. Stretches a bit for these (except maybe the last one). Already wrote lore reasons explaining their existence, probably.

Suicune, Raikou, and Entei instead of Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon.

Magearna as a Klinklang evolution.

Celebi as a Floette evolution. Calls Celebi the "Time Travel Pokemon". Fused with the flower in a way different than Florges.

Meltan as a Ditto mutation. Finds Metal Powder on Ditto. Absorbed a bit too much.

 

[Sweet Serenity]

Genesect probably fits the mold the best, considering that it already is a future and enhanced version of some ancient Pokémon that we are currently unaware of.

 

[RadEmpoleon]

I guess Alomomola as a paradox of Luvdisc? Since we pretty much all thought Luvdisc would evolve into Alomomola when it was revealed.

 

[Palamon]

I forgot to say AZ's Floette...

She can't evolve is from 3,000 years ago, and knows special moves. Also has a different appearance & flower.

 

[Witch]

Girantina would be neat. Like a decrepit crypt vibe or something.
Also I wouldn't mind seeing Seviper with some kind of more primal looking form

 

[ReKoil]

Kleavor could pass for a past Paradox for Scyther, and Scizor as a future Paradox for it.

 

[Adam Levine]

Hisuian Voltorb and Electrode, simply because they further muddle the already confusing lore of Poké Balls and their Kantonian counterparts, the same way Sandy Shocks and Walking Wake's mere existence is a paradox.

 

[Corveone]

Scizor and Kleavor could have made more sense as Future/Past paradoxes, since they don't really work like Scyther evolutions in terms of appearance or stats, but more like alternate forms.

Celebi: Not sure of what, but it's a time traveler Pokémon, so it could totally be a paradox of something else.

Drampa and Turtonator: Could have been Dunsparce and Torkoal paradoxes respectively. Or Drampa could have been a much better Dunsparce evo than Dudunsparce.
