You know what, I'd be ok if Piplup doesn't end up being the water starter for ZA if it meant that we could get Inteleon with a regional variant.
I really dig Intelleon's concept, the entirety of it, i love all the tricks built into its design (water gun finger pistols, fencing tail, scope/night vision eye lids, gliding membrane, sticky climbing hands and camouflage). I just want it to have a stronger design.
I like Intelleon but I can also acknowledge that a new form would really help it. It becoming dual typed would help it stand out and allow it's movepool to improve. If it were to end up as a starter in Z_A that would be an excellent time for it to be upgraded.
