If you could retcon one pokemon, which would it be and why? No "I dislike the design", we need legitimate reasons!

Pic unrelated, just as a premeditated help for the many shitposters that will come to hate on it
>>
>>26622160
None.
>>
There is no legitimate reason.
Anyone wanting to retcon a Pokémon is a faggot.

>>26622160
megas that aren't on third stage evolutions

I would retcon Diance as cabink's evo
>>
>>26622160
Zoroark, I have nothing against it, but the fact it's nothing more than a failed Lucario clone makes its sole existance pathetically miserable and it would be much better for everybody if it just stopped existing.
>>
I don't really care, maybe Zoroark. Either get rid of it completely of release it in a game where it isn't event only yet marketed to hell and back for no fucking reason.
>>
Retcon Phione out of existence of course.

I'd probably move a couple of Gen 4 and 5 legendaries to Gen 6 to spread them out a bit more evenly too.
>>
>>26622160
The genies

Only thing I would definitely change would be to make Alomomola an evolution of Luvdisc.
>>
>>26622160
Retcon Archeops.
Give it Torrent.
>>
Ok, is this better:
What thing about pokemon would you retcon? Id give crabhammer to gliscor
>>
>>26622160
>Chesnaught
No need to explain why, if you don't understand you are a faggot.
>>
>>26622333
I'd give Crabhammer to Mew
>>
>>26622333
You mean, as in no longer limited to one thing?

Nidos are one line with different gender appearances.

Tauros and Milktank given a common pre-evo.

Masquerain is Bug / Water.

Castform doesn't have cloud-boobs.

Luvdisc > Alomomola

Carbink > Diance
>>
>>26622160
Does it have to be just one?
Well fuck you I'm doing multiple.

Samurott.
I didn't like any of those starters but holy shit that evolution was terrible.

Garbodor.
Don't get rid of him, but actually let him learn some moves. His move pool is piss poor, he can't even learn poison jab.

>>26622206
>>26622260
Also these two.
>>
Disliking the design is a completely reasonable when it's design is as bad as the only Pokemon I truly hate
Keldeo, retcon out of existence
>>
>>26622414
Everything listed here plus Greninja keeping the bubbles and losing the tongue
>>
I'd give the Magnemite line levitate as one of the possible abilities. Then Magnezone and Magneton are truly viable, and make sense. I'd give it a slightly better move pool overall, I'd really like it to have more options, it's a neat Pokemon that would help the meta if it wasn't 4x weak to ground.
>>
>>26622414
Oh! Also, Golem gets a redesign that looks closer to Graveller.
>>
Chesnaught, because it's a hideous abomination that don't deserve to exist.
>>
I'd retcon Rhyperior. Make it more like Rhydon's aesthetic. I think they royally fucked up the design.

All of this and pic related replacing Greninja.

Chesnaught's shiny form becomes default color scheme and it's retarded shield becomes either more apparent somehow or just nonexistant.

Delphox has significant gender differences and male form has open robe, wizardy like appearance. I saw a great pic of an alt Delphox but can't find it unfortunately.
>>
>>26622363
Shitphox is worse.

>it just gets bigger
I'm glad you don't work for GameFreak.

It's not that I don't like it, but when Game Freak refuses to acknowledge its existence, in the game, anime, or otherwise when Pikachu is much more recognizable by the fans and non-fans, it really serves no purpose existing.
>>
>>26622160
Shitpert ruined the thing that the other Hoenn starters had going for them. You had a sleek gecko and a sleek chicken... and then a fat swamp monster. It just didn't fit in.
>>
>>26622528
I would retcon a lot of pokemon to look similar to their evolution lines
>>
>>26622874
>le GF hates Raichu meme
>>
>>26622874
Flygon has it worse.
>>
Zen Mode on Darmanitan needs serious retcon.

If it were to simply be a permanent forme rather than an in battle activation, not only would it become viable, but I would be happy cause permanent Zenmon on my party.

>inb4 it's a survival mechanism

They should have thought of that before they made it that much easier to kill once it killed it's speed, was left with less than half of it's HP and added the ever fragile Psychic to it's typing.

Heatran was a mistake.

yeah, that's the reason that Raichu got a stat boost in gen VI
