Isn't Zoroark also called an Illusory Pokemon?

It's the Illusion Fox Pokémon, but either way, it's a different title from what I'm talking about. Zoroark's title is a species classification along the lines of Pikachu being the Electric Mouse Pokemon, Illusory (or rather, Mythical) Pokemon refers to Event Pokemon as a group, being a subcategory of legendaries. So if it's considered an Illusory Pokemon, it's an event Pokemon, not it's species.

So basically, these guys: www.pokemon20.com/en-us/mythical.html

Speaking of that, here's the full translation of the page:

Volcanion's object is to recover Magiana, who has been abducted by the "Azoth Kingdom", a city of super-machinery. However, Volcanion and Satoshi have become linked together by a strange. Will the two of them manage to work together and save Magiana?

Detailed analysis

Like. I'm sorry. But what even is all of this. Maybe I need to see this in action. But no... Just no...

It's a villain....

Volcanism doesn't like people because they made something that could capture every Pokemon at once.

Ah, okay. Still, the description is rather interesting. Plus I do have an interest in man-made Pokemon.

Wait? Is that actually real? If so, as in turn a Pokemon into a Pokeball? Or is it actually saying that it can combine multiple Pokemon into one single Pokemon? Cause good lord, could that possibly mean that Pokemon Fusions might become a thing?

Spoiler: Could these become a thing?

Called it. :9

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I think it means Magearna (most likely the English name) can turn other pokemon into fellow Magearna

 

[Substitution]

I mean, I don't mind the whole man made Pokemon thing. Hell one of my favorite Pokemon is an artificial beast (Porygon).

But... wha? It can turn Pokemon into things and screw with evolution what? Like even by Pokemon standards this is confusing.

It's a living pokeball that stores pokemon

and fuses them together

Edit: It's basically voltorb! But older

. . .So we're going to start with Machine type Pokémon now?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Y'know

what if it turns out Volcanion is a fusion of 2 pokemon already

That's his relations to this mech thing

 

[Substitution]

It's a living pokemon that stores pokemon

and fuses them together

Yeah I get that. I guess my question is why?
Like I'm assuming knowing Pokemon this is going to be some noble messiah we should all love and care for, but why the hell would someone make this? Does the Pokemon universe get off to making and capturing eldritch abominations that could potentially destroy half the earth?

So I could fuse Wigglytuff and Clefable and create the ultimate Fairy Type?

Holy crap these fusions are amazing!! That Hydreigon+Scizor and Gardevoir+Chandlure!!!

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Mewtwo + Deoxys ultimate pokemon

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

. . .So we're going to start with Machine type Pokémon now?

It doesn't exist as a Type, but it already is there. Magnemite line, Klink line. Voltorb line. They don't have genders as a result. I think they fit just fine under Steel, really.

 

[Chandeelure]

Mewtwo + Deoxys ultimate pokemon

Excuse me?

 

[DraconicPsycho]

Wait a minute..pokemon fusion... MY CHILDHOOD DREAM OF EMPOLIALGA WILL BE REAAAAL!!!

To be honest, I highly doubt it's gonna be as simple as "fuse one Pokemon with another to make a new one". Unless Game Freak wants to make 519,841 models of Pokemon and still have room for everything else.

 

[N3ON]

That new Pokemon is a pretty cool looking Digimon.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

To be honest, I highly doubt it's gonna be as simple as "fuse X and Y". Unless Game Freak wants to make 519,841 models of Pokemon and still have room for everything else.

It'll probably just be a few, maybe things like Venustoise as they've incorporated anime stuff into the games before. Kyurem is still the one and only official game fusion. The Sevii Islands are pretty much the Orange Islands, for instance.

 

[Aetheri]

It's going to be likely that only certain pokemon fused together would make a new pokemon rather than mix and match at random if it does become a thing...

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

It could only be fully evolved pokemon

and probably only a select number of them

Apparently there are 348 fully evolved pokemon so that would only be ~121,000 models

 

[DraconicPsycho]

That's still quite a bit, all things considered.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

That new Pokemon is a pretty cool looking Digimon.

I dunno, it looks kind of basic for a digimon

And I'm pretty sure if they did make a machine girl digimon it'd look like a teenage girl with the metal parts covering strategic areas

and something absurd on her back or something

 

[Substitution]

And even then that's a crapton of models to make. And I highly doubt they have the time nor the memory space to do it.

idk they fit quite a bit of things into X and Y and ORAS. Who knows, though.

 

[Khoru]

why is everyone paying so much attention to that random tweet when Arcanir posted the full translation of the page that makes... no mention whatsoever of fusion

 

[Substitution]

Yes, but let me put this into perspective:

Let's count up the Pokemon up to Gen six and include many of the other models and graphics needed (trainers, environment, etc.). And with that we could assume that the amount is somewhere under 1,000 models.

So now let's say we went with this new idea of fusing Pokemon. Well, we would need to consider the possibility of Pokemon having more than just one fusion. And the more combinations needed, the more unique textures and models that would be needed for this one gimmick. Which (as stated above) could go into the tens and hundreds of thousands.

why is everyone paying so much attention to that random tweet when Arcanir posted the full translation of the page that makes... no mention whatsoever of fusion

Because it's mostly speculation. I don't think we're getting Pokemon fusions myself, but hell it's something to talk about.

 

[Curious Villager]

Weren't Reshiram and Zekrom (and Kyurem?) once one entire Pokemon? Would probably be neat to see their full form if this pokemon can really do this whole fusion thing.....

 

[DraconicPsycho]

cuz we like having pokemon fused. thats my take on it at least.
