New fossils speculation
Another expected trend in a new generation is fossil Pokemon, which tend to come in duos. That said, what kinds of prehistoric creatures are you hoping to see for the next fossil Pokemon, or what secondary types they'll have aside from Rock?
|
I'd like to see a triceratops as a fossil Pokemon. As for typing, call me crazy, but I'd like to see Rock/Electric.
|
I would like to see a fossil typing that we haven't seen before.
I'm thinking Rock / Fairy or Rock / Dark even. |
Normal/Rock would be interesting. Also I wish they bring back the 3rd fossil like Aerodactyl that don't require to pick.
|
Every gen I'm gonna ask for the same thing: I want our "obligatory electric rodent" to double as (one of) our fossil Pokémon. It could be some sort of ancient rodent and be Electric/Rock. I think that would be a fun twist on both ends.
|
I'd like a more reptilian sea-dwelling fossil Pokemon, maybe a massive one based on a Liopleurodon or Mosasaur. It'd probably wind up being another Rock/Water type, but design is more important to me than typing, and none of the existing water-dwelling fossil Pokemon really look like dinosaurs, nor are they particularly big. This one would be massive - like, Wailord-sized - and probably be a standalone with no evo or pre-evo. It's unlikely to happen, but it'd be nice!
|
The fact that every fossil Pokemon is primarily rock type is quite annoying.
I don't really know why this is still a trend after all the games, surely reviving a creature in it's entirety from a fossil(rock) wouldn't mean it's instantly a rock type? Doubt anything would change that, i would like to see Rock/Electric, Rock/Poison and Rock/Fighting type fossil pokemon. |
We need a danger noodle.
A very big danger noodle. Like, the size of a bus/The kind that could eat a fifteen foot long crocodile.https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/d6/1d/0c/d61d0c7f789a91403ebb981f87d7a7e4.jpg We need a big danger noodle, preferably Rock/Normal since it was a danger noodle with no toxins/poisons. It mainly strangled things. (Yes this thing is real and is very terrifying.) |
Two set choices I have two set choices:
Dinosaurs: Rock/Grass Stegosauria and Rock/Dark Dromeaosaurid Non-Dinosaours: Rock/Ice Mammoth and Rock/Electric Smilidon (Sabre-toothed cat) Quote:

I can't see there being a mammoth since we've already got the Swinub line to fill this hole. A sabre-toothed cat would be interesting, but I can't help but think of Raikou...maybe a different secondary typing? One thing I'd find highly interesting - although extremely irritating, because we've got enough of the things - would be if they had a prehistoric monkey/caveman type Pokemon, to provide the missing link between Pokemon and Man and muddy the waters up good and proper. xD |

Personally, I wouldn't be too sad to see no fossil Pokemon. Don't get me wrong--I do like them but it's becoming quite a boring trend and none of the fossil Pokemon really stand out to me as of late. I'd really like to see a unique twist on them if they are brought back, maybe even playing an important part in the story instead of being shoved to the side and somewhat forgotten about.

Velociraptor, Stegosaurus, Quetzalcoatlus, Spinosaurus, Dilophosaurus, Liopleurodon, Ankylosaurus, Dimetrodon, Mammoth (an actual mammoth with a trunk, not Mamoswine the giant tusky pig), Indricotherium, Doedicurus, Elasmotherium, Megatherium, Smilodon, Moa, Dodo, Megaloceros. Any of them I'd be happy with. I'm not picky. Much. ^^

Raikou is loosely based on a sabre-toothed tiger in terms of its build, although it draws the rest of the inspiration for its design from elsewhere; it's a literal thunder cat, haha. I think a sabre-toothed cat fossil would be awesome, but I can't see it being part Electric because of the similarities. I guess it'd depend on the colour scheme, though? |
What I do hope to see from the next fossil Pokemon are more unique type combinations, because I loved Tyrunt and Amaura not just for design but for introducing new type combinations. Really hoping for a Rock/Fighting or Rock/Electric Pokemon especially.

I'm still waiting for a velociraptor-based fossil. Maybe rock/dark?
A sabercat one would be interesting too. If they could somehow make a rock/fire sabrecat work, that would be amazing. There's also Triceratops. Or rock/water plesiosaur perhaps... There are a lot of possibilities that haven't been used yet that they could draw off of. |

I want a dog.
|
A Rock/Normal fossil based on mammals of the past or prehistoric rodents would be great.
|
I think that having Rock/Fire and Rock/Dark would fit well with the theme of the games. Perhaps they could evolve with evolutionary stones as well (just an idea). Or perhaps not even making them version exclusive, or in line with the theme, and doing something totally unrelated and letting you choose (or have both!).
