Yes, I'm posting this in honor of "twos-day", what of it
Actual Pokemon fusion, as a game mechanic, may be limited to a few select legendary Pokemon, but in-lore, there's actually a surprisingly large amount of Pokemon that, one way or another, have more than one mind. Some of them visibly have more than one head (E.G. Doduo, Binacle, Zweilous) or multiple bodies that just somehow fit in the same Pokeball (E.G. Slowbro, Kangaskhan, Dragapult), while with others you'd have to dive into Pokedex entries to know (E.G. Reuniclus, Metagross, Spiritomb). Which Pokemon that have this highly specific trait left the biggest impression on you?
My actual favorite Pokemon is one of these, Dawn Wings Necrozma (and also Dusk Mane to a lesser extent), so that's a given. Other than that, I really like Doduo, Reuniclus (the idea of the two halves basically gaining power from holding hands is so cute ;_;), Metang/Metagross, Spiritomb (look, I know the idea of it being made of 108 captive spirits is supposed to be a scary thing, but for me it just makes me want to hug it and tell all 108 of them that I accept them for all their darkness and mischievousness and I'm gonna help them make the best of their situation, okay) and Drakloak/Dragapult (I actually sorta like Drakloak better, it's just more charming somehow? But then Dragapult introduces the whole hilarious Dragon Darts concept, so they both have their advantages). Additionally, I'd also argue that Paras & Parasect fit into this category, because, you know, the bug/mushroom dynamic, so that's another favorite.
