Character Sheet: The Rellor Line

RELLOR/RABSCA

Now, we come to Rellor and Rabsca, a pair of Pokemon based on dung beetles, complete with the giant ball of . . . well, Pokemon says it’s a ball of dirt. We’re just going with that. Rabsca also pulls from scarab beetles as well as the Egyptian god Khepri, a giant scarab that rolls the sun across the sky.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Mud Shot > Psybeam

 

Side B: Rollout

 

Up B: Struggle Bug > Revival Blessing

 

Down B: Sand Attack > Confusion

 

Final Smash: Rock Tera-Type Rollout

I’ve mostly been doing this with the type of the move, so they get that extra STAB bonus, but this time I’m really tempted to make it Fire Tera-Type so that it’s literally Khepri’s sun.

 

Entrance: Poke Ball

 

Taunts: Rolling its ball around, sniffing it and looking grossed out, things like that.

 

Kirby Hat: Kirby becoming a ball rolled by a Rellor?

 

Kart: Just rolling the ball

Special Move: Mud Shot

 

Spirit Battle: On Pokopia

 

Victory Screen: Rolling the ball up, with all its opponents sticking out, and then sitting on top proudly.

Losing Screen: Fainted

 

Color Swaps: Main, shiny, other general colors

Character Sheet: The Capsakid Line

CAPSAKID/SCOVILLAIN

Skipping over the Toedscool line and Klawf for now, we now come to Capsakid and Scovillain. For decades upon decades, one single concept for a Grass/Fire Pokemon has reigned supreme, that being a pepper Pokemon, and now, we finally have it. It’s . . . not the best version of the concept I’ve seen, but I suppose the better concept existing in fanart really couldn’t be used by the official company anymore, so it is what it is. They are based on peppers, primarily Jalapenos and Habaneros, with Scovillain growing a second head, and pulling a bit from Vaudeville villains from old Westerns.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Bullet Seed

 

Side B: Razor Leaf > Flamethrower

 

Up B: Sunny Day >  Overheat

 

Down B: Leafage > Spicy Extract

 

Final Smash: Fire Tera-Type Flamethrower > Mega Scovillain

 

Entrance: Poke Ball

 

Taunts: Walking bowlegged like a Western villain, fanning its mouth like it just ate a spicy pepper, things like that.

 

Kirby Hat: The pepper tops on their heads

 

Kart: The Poke Ball car

Special Move: Spicy Extract

 

Spirit Battle: On Hotel Z

 

Victory Screen: Standing all cocky, like it just won a duel at high noon.

Losing Screen: Fainted

 

Color Swaps: Main, shiny, other general colors (probably various pepper colors).

Character Sheet: The Bramblin Line

BRAMBLIN/BRAMBLEGHAST

Our next line is Bramblin and Brambleghast, yet another Ghost/Grass combo based this time on tumbleweeds, like those you see blowing through every Western movie out there.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

Side B: Rollout

 

Up B: Rapid Spin > Phantom Force

 

Down B: Hex > Giga Drain

 

Final Smash: Rock Tera-Type Rollout

 

Entrance: Poke Ball

Kirby Hat: He becomes a tumbleweed with arms and feet.

 

Kart: Just rolling

Special Move: Rollout

 

Spirit Battle: On Pokopia

 

Victory Screen: Blowing away across the desert, leaving the opponent’s bones behind.

Character Sheet: The Shroodle Line

SHROODLE/GRAFAIAI

Next, we have our first ever Normal/Poison combo with Shroodle and Grafaiai. Shroodle is a little shrew with a paint brush for a tongue, that then evolves into Grafaiai, an aye-aye with paint covering its long finger that it uses to finger paint all over every surface it can find.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Poison Fang > Poison Jab

 

Side B: Fury Swipes > Doodle

Character Sheet: The Maschiff Line

MASCHIFF/MABOSSTIFF

Now, we come to the second set of dogs introduced in this generation, Maschiff and Mabosstiff. These are based more on pit bulls and mastiffs and other dogs commonly used as guard dogs, with some inspiration pulling from a mafia don and his goons.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Bite > Jaw Lock

 

Side B: Headbutt > Outrage

 

Up B: Tackle

 

Down B: Lick > Comeuppance

Character Sheet: The Tadbulb Line

TADBULB/BELLIBOLT

Now, we have a fun little line in Tadbulb and Bellibolt, a tadpole mixed with a lightbulb that evolves into a frog with fake eyes on the side of its head and a plasma globe in its belly. It also bears a distinct resemblance to avocadoes, but I . . . think that’s probably a coincidence.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

Up B: Flail > Sucker Punch
