Personally I feel Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres should have gotten Alolan varients just to see how a legendary Pokémon would change to adapt to Alolas environment. Maybe even an Alolan Mew that was used to make Alolan Mewtwo?
I like this idea a lot. But I think it would have been too much work for the creators, personally, because of how detailed the eeveelutions can be. Maybe they might in the future. But yeah... That is one of the main issues I see with it. And when I mean detailed, I mean in design and type. Most of the types if changed, could be fails if not done correctly.
Considering that we already have the following types (Fire, Water, Electric, Psychic, Dark, Grass, Ice and Fairy), maybe a Fighting type to complete the Psychic-Fighting-Dark triangle or a Poison or Steel to counter the Fairy-type Sylveon.
Poison and steel I reckon that'd be sweeeet. I would definitely like to see that type utilised. If not alolan eeveelution, definitely another Pokémon.
I was really hoping the Oddish line would get Alolan Forms, especially Bellossom. I was thinking something like a Fairy/Grass hula dancer. Also, Alolan Tiki Seedot evos would have been hilarious. A Grass/Fire type with a giant flaming tiki mask, maybe something like those coconut warriors from Moana. XD
@JukeboxJukain Aw, you said the Pokémon I was gonna say (Seedot). Others that would be interesting to see would be Dratini, Growlithe, and Meditite.
I think they kind of made it a point to not have flying types or water types with regional variants. I say this because the ones that do have the variants had to adapt in order to live on those islands. Flying types and water types could easily just migrate instead.
I'd also love to see an Alolan Slugma/Magcargo! There's a lot of lava that flows into the ocean; maybe Slugma could become a Water/Fire type with more steam vent attributes?
true but volcanion also is a legendary Pokémon;; personally alolan octillery or arcanine would be neat!! maybe a blue-ringed octopus mixed with a gun with a poison typing added on?? we don't really have many water/poison Pokémon that are offensively based outside of maybe qwilfish;; alolan arcanine because arcanine being a counterpart to ninetales is still something i want; i can't think of any neat ideas for typings but i kind of want a ghost/dragon that isn't giratina
Maybe Sceptile... could be an awesome thing. It could be... Grass/Fighting? Not sure how that would work, but it could.
Maybe a regional Onix could be the CRYSTAL ONIX because it's the closest thing to a regional variant with Onix.
