Okay it’s been decided: Fire/Grass is this month’s pokemon type, but before we can get into all that style and build discussion we first have to answer this one question?
Is it going to be a new pokemon or an evolution of an existing pokemon?
Now Doug has been really insisting on us staying on the topic at hand and I agree with him but please don’t let Doug’s words be a deterrent towards discussions. We can still have enjoyable discussions while staying on topic. It's really not that hard =D. I assumed that discussion about this a poll ahead are okay to discussion also but try not to go overboard with it.

The pro and cons of both a new pokemon and a new evolution
Pro on New Pokemon:
- We have more creativity freedom when it comes to movepool, abilities, appearance, etc…
- It’s more fun making a brand new beast and won’t fill like we all show the outcome coming 5,000 miles away.
- Less confusion to those that just jump on the server.
- More work, more tedious discussions
- Might turn out to be overpowering
- People on the official Shoddy server will banish you to the far corner of the universe for even mentioning this on it.
- It would help make a crappy pre-existing pokemon not so crappy
- To finally make you fantasies about a certain pokemon evo come real.
- Less work and a faster process time
- A feeling of “Been there, done that” thrown into the finished work
- Less creativity on things that made this project funny.
- People having to adjust seeing this critter placed under or beside a pre-existing pokemon and took it an evo of it.
- It has this fan boy feel to it.
