I definitely like the baby pokemon idea! Lots of great options!
Great gen 1 choices. I don’t think there’s a 3-stage fire to round out the OG type trio with oddish and poliwag
I looked for one
- Dratini
- Bagon
- Dreepy
Axew
Aron
Magnemite
Dratini
Cosmog
Gastly
Elekid
Trapinch
If we include baby pokemon the choise is an easy one: Smuj (baby pokemon that never made it through gen 2 beta phase) - grimer - muk, easy as that!
larvitar might be my favorite first form of a 3 stage line, so i’d go with that
My top choices would be:
- Dratini
- Togepi
- Abra
- Gastly
- Larvitar
- Beldum
I’ve never heard of this, got any pics?
I’m angry that this little guy was never released
Dratini
Smuj/betobebi will always be in our memories, always loved even though never accepted tbh it looks so much like ditto that it’s no wonder it didn’t make it, but i’m glad some material of it exists so i can live in my dreams. Also ordered custom card of it + asked to create alolan smuj too from an ig card artist erosxart and was very pleased with what they came up with!
(Sorry for slight off topic, got excited, won’t not do it again)
Gastly!!!
I imagine the release of Smuj would have made the grimer/muk line infinitely more popular.
It would certainly mean at least one Neo-era card for each member of the Muk family and more exposure due to the baby status. I think they are inherently limited in terms of popularity due to their design, but an increase is not unlikely.
I much prefer the drawings where the thing in the middle looks like a mouth and not a nose.
