"That could be the reason the region is chock full of nothin' but rare Pokemon, yeah!" He says
>Caterpie
>Pichu
>Ledyba
>Pangoro
>Krookodile
>Gengar
>Salamence
>Metagross
>Garchomp
etc
So rare
I legitimately wonder what role in game design the ledyba and caterpie contribute. Why did they do caterpie and not vivillon.

Only three of those are confirmed to be obtainable in-game. Others still have the possibility of being generated Pokemon for demonstration videos
>>26889789
I don't mind the variety, so long as they don't just put Weedle and a bunch of other mons in there for no reason.
Also, Mega Butterfree when?

>Others still have the possibility of being generated Pokemon for demonstration videos
All of the Pokemon shown in XY demosntrations were obtainable in-game, same with ORAS
>>26889813
fukyou forgot eevee
>>26889811
What I mean is, I assume they don't pick Pokemon at random. I'm legitimately curious why they went with these again.
>>26889827
I think they do with such large local pokedexes. Kalos had plenty of bugs including Caterpie and Ledyba aswell
>>26889768
But Pangoro IS rare, you can only get it in one pair of games, as opposed with Caterpie which you can get from 7 different pairs.
>>26889827
Me too. I mean, we JUST had Ledyba and Caterpie at the beginning of Kalos. Why couldn't we have Sewaddle and Spinarak?
>>26889811
>Also, Mega Butterfree when?
Now

Mega Butterfree
>>26890492
This is basically Eeveelution stats
>>26890860
Less than, even, they all have 525
>>26890492
I really like the idea of Fur Coat. It's a shame you lose that almost 100 % Sleep powder
How much defense does Butterfree has if you would convert fur coat 85 to regular basestats? 110 or better?
Well, anything from Unova and Kalos is technically rare since they haven't been in many games. Ledyba also hasn't been very accessible in many regions, and psuedo legends are uncommon by default
>>26890882
o lord on heaven do not let fans design mega pokemon
252 Atk Landorus-T Stone Edge vs. 0 HP / 128+ Def Fur Coat Butterfree: 216-256 (82.7 - 98%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
>>26890905
i didnt make it clear that i changed it to 85 fur coat here.
>>26890882
Uninvested base 85 yields 206 Def at Lv 100. With Fur Coat that's effective 412 Def. To get to 412 Def naturally you'd need 185 base Def uninvested.
With max EVs and positive nature it becomes 295 * 2 = 590 Def, which would require even a Shuckle to have some investment on the Def stat.
Here are some calcs:
>252 Atk Adaptability Mega Beedrill U-turn vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Fur Coat Butterfree: 196-232 (75 - 88.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
>>26890905
For a 2x effective attack? That's pretty shit.
>>26891026
oh i didn't change the type. so thats 4x
>>26889768
How many pokedexes are Ledyba in?
>>26891097
And there's 7 regions. 8 if you count Sevii Islands. Maybe that's rare.
Actually, we should be going through the Pokemon list to see which Pokemon appear in very few regional dexes. Maybe we could get an idea from that
