You should, because it evolves into Camilla from Fire Emblem.

There are a lot of great ones;

Lairon, Murkrow, Venonat, Glameow, Happiny, Elekid, and Duskull are probably my top picks.

Cleffa is a perfect little star friend.

Phanpy is so cute that I had a hard time fighting them in Firered. I ended up raising one to level 100, just to be a cute friend with Pickup.

Also Pumpkaboo, Joltik, Duskull, Phantump, Goomy, Dratini.

The way it skates around in 3D is super cute.

Too bad it evolves into a bug/flying type with horrid stats so :rip:

That guy could be wearing basic knight armour and still look like a gently caress head if his weapon of choice is a giant plastic pizza cutter.

The funny thing is, I'm fairly certain that weapon isn't even in the game. At least, I never came across it.

I always liked Masquerain, if only because as a kid, the moment I realized where its eyes made me go "No wonder it has Intimidate!"

But then I'm one of those dumbasses who doesn't really care whether or not the Surskit line remains Bug/Water, so what do I know.

I like Masquerain visually but its another worthless bug/flying so it frustrates me.

i actually like the further evolutions such as electivire and magmortar, but something about rhyperior seems weird. maybe because rhydon was one of giovanni's 'things' in the early games and it feels odd for there to just magically be a further evolution.

Did you know in the manga he's the one who discovered Rhyperior.

So due to a friends request I'm trying to build a Trick room team around this guy because he can actually hit like loving truck if he doesn't instantly dies. Slowbro for set up and annoyance, and MegaAmpharos as a back up sweeper is all I have so far. Anyone have any ideas for the team?

Trevanant is slow, right? Forest's curse Trevanant, and a slow fire type? Slowbro could take Icebeam or something if you've got room for it.
