new strange evolutions

I disagree with any of these ideas, except possibly the Third (that is, if it's tweeked a little).
A Pokemon evolving four times would go against the established rules set so far. And when I say evolving four times, I mean having four stages, not having three stages and then an alternate for the last one. No, I mean the "I'll evolve four times and have uberly stupid stats" kind. That's a big No-No and is quite boring.
A Normal Pokemon evolving into any type it wants would mean about 17 useless Pokemon from that single Pokey alone. That's a waste of space that could be put to better use by other Pokemon--dual types especially. Besides, part of the fun in raising Pokemon is not knowing what you'll get next.
I would only agree with the last one if A) the new, weaker evolution got a special move or ability to compensate for its weakness (ala Shedinja), or B) If the weaker portion of the new evolution was allocated to fewer moves, bad ability, or things of that nature--NOT stats.

4th evoltuion would be fine - as long as we don't end up with "uber" pokemon as metnioned... In fact why not take idea 1 and merge it with idea 3... where the 4th evolution is "worst" or at least skewed...
Somewhat like the 3 Slakoth/Vigoroth/Slacking combo where Slacking suffers from the Truant ability anew.
I don't like the 2 idea at all though. We already have a Ditto for a similar purpose and plenty of pokémon which have multiple evolution paths.

1. no... unless it's alternate evolutions... then that's fine
2. don't we have eevee for that?
3. could work... especially if something happens with makes it worthwhile to have.
anyway, how about the opposite of alternate evolutions, 2 different pokemon speices evolve into the same evolved form.
the only pokemon I can see this working for might be Plusle and Minun...

frodo said:it will be good if there will be new strange evolutions like these :
1. a pokemon that evolves 3 times (4 shapes)
2. a normal pokemon that evolves into any type it wants
3. a pokemon that becomes smaller and weaker when it evolves
Yeah. Uh, maybe you should read this. And do a search before starting a new topic.
V Faction said:Variety is a key aspect of Pokemon. The way that would operate restricts that variety.
pointless yes, but it'd be interesting to see at least one (and only one) pokemon do this... though it'd be best for novelity pokemon, like Plusle and Minun. The final result would still be medicore at best.
Seriously though, the only differences between the two are that the attack and defense stats are flipped and one learns fake tears while the other learns charm...

the OP didn't mean that they'll be in DP, it's just harmless speculation...

Oh, I know. It's just that he should have posted in the Gameplay ideas forum (the link in the thread that I linked).the OP didn't mean that they'll be in DP, it's just harmless speculation...
But anyway, I would like to see a third evolution.

I only like all those. They would be very "strange" if those things were to occur. A bit too strange. XD
