Cubones that wear different skulls that aren’t its mother. They hunt and claim skulls as trophies. They wear them as a display of strength and intimidation. Imagine coastal region Cubones that hunt Kinglers as a rite of passage to evolve. You’d get a Marowak wearing a Kingler skull and wielding a pincer staff instead of a bone.

A regional Electivire, a regional magmortar and a regional jynx.

Electivire being a Fighting/Fire type which actually has an ability sheer force. With all punching moves in it’s arsenal it can be a hell of a fighter.

Magmortar being a Water/Dark type which have an ability of megalauncher which powers pulse moves for it same as electivire gets the push with punch moves

Regional jynx being a Ghost/Psychic type with the ability emergency exit. Yup i made it 4 times weak to dark but the ability must make it valuable.

Not 100% regional variant, but I really wish they would do more with deer themed pokemon?

So maybe regional variants of Swasbuck? Cause stantler is the dumbest thing ever. And thats all pokemon has for deer. Swasbuck and Stantler when in RL l there’s moose, Caribou, Red Deer, Fallow Deer, Whitetail, Mule, Blacktail, Roe, all the Mutjack species and some of the Asian spices im forgetting the names of.

I could see there being a deer that had a psychic theme. Maybe had dreamcatcher in the antlers. Or dark or fairy to tie into lore about deer being sprits and guardians of the wood.

Or have the moose and caribou variant with ice typing with something else.

But nope we have stantler and swasbuck. And I do like swasbuck, was one of the few pokemon I liked from the disaster that was that gen.

But in order for this variant to work we need a good deer pokemon to begin with.
