As a move, I think Insulate is fine, but I’m kinda stuck on Storm Blast. I thought could work like Stockpile and Spit Up (and it gets those moves plus Swallow). I originally wanted it to be a stronger Charge Beam, but then i decided “Hmmm… let’s not.”

For hidden ability, I originally gave it a signature ability called Atmospheric Pressure, boosting its Weather and Weather-Adjacent moves, but I ultimately settled on just Thick Fat, to really go all in on bulk with this chilly chonker.

Its base stat total was originally 515, but I decided to make it 520, and evolve at level 32 from Skunder, and 16 from Skuncloud (which I’m renaming to Skloud).

Its Base Stat Spread is now 100 HP, 20 Ph. Atk, 90 Ph. Def, 120 Sp. Atk, 90. Sp. Def, and 100 Speed

Blaziken’s design is the best of the three Hoenn starters, is the best of the first 3 gens, and designs on average improved from gen 4 onwards. The starter Pokemon before gen 4 were mostly bland, generic, and uninteresting. Had it not been for the anime, they’d be significantly less liked.

I know Kantonian Raichu, Ampharos, and Luxray gets all of the fame, but I love these guys more, especially considering their secondary typings. Psychic is my favorite and Fighting is starting to grow on me.

Note: Amphinaut’s signature move has been upgraded: Instead of confusion, it prevents the target from switching out (even if they’re a ghost type) and does recurring damage for 4 more turns. It’s now 75bp.

And by based off, I mean the same species as my OC, not necessarily the same theme. Ashton is a ninja (yeah I know, where could I have gotten that from???) but uses leaves and not water. I didn’t want a repeat of Greninja, so instead I chose an astronaut frog.

The signature move’s a work in progress and Amphinaut would have very low Ph. Atk to make way for great special attack and speed and solid enough bulk to get by.

My team is a space themed team.

Orbeetle’s here because it’s G-Max is UFO, Clefable’s here because it’s said to come from space, Naganadel’s here because it’s an alien, Minior’s a meteorite, Ampharos’s tail light can be seen from space like a beacon. Lopunny’s a stretch, but it’s here because it has a hidden reference to the moon rabbit folktale, it even learns Cosmic Power.

G-Max Orbeetle and Mega Lopunny would be my aces depending on the situation. Lopunny would use Drain Punch, Bounce, Ice Punch, Swords Dance

Orbeetle would get Body Press, Signal Beam, Psychic, and Charge Beam when it’s not G-Maxed, then Flash Cannon, Earth Power, Psychic, and Dark Pulse for when it is G-Maxed
