Just some ideas I had for some Gen five Pokémon, and a place for people to post their own ideas.

First up is the main group of legends, the ones that will be on the game itself: The Angels. All of them will share a type and be dual-typed, like the dragons in DPP. I'm thinking Psychic, as it's technically the opposite of dark type, save for one that I'll mention at the end. The three main ones would be Seraphim, Ophanim, and Cherubim. The fourth "hidden" Angel would be Nephilim, who would be Dark instead of Psychic (or whatever other opposite).

The "common" legends, as in the ones that you just need to look for, like the Regis and the Lake Trio, are the Five Holy Beasts. Genbu, the Black Turtle, who would be a Rock type; Byakko, the White Tiger, who would be the first-ever pure Flying type (other than a Sky-plated Arceus); Seiryu, the Blue Dragon, a Water type; Suzaku, the Red Phoenix, a Fire type; and, finally, Ooryu, the Golden Dragon, a pure Dragon legend.

Then the strongest in the game, like Arceus, would be Omeus, the Omega Pokémon. It would look like a humanoid Arceus, with Arcues's wheel thingy on it's arm like a shield. It would also have a new ability I came up with called "Two fisted" which allows for the equipping of two items. We'd have to come up with a way for Omeus to be affected by the plates as well, so he can be a double-typed Arceus.

Then for the starters, I left the usual Fire/Grass/Water, but in noticing that the attempt to balance out the reverse direction in DPP didn't work so well (Water types can learn ice moves that devastate grass) I thought about making the highest evolved forms Fire/Grass, Water/Fire, and Grass/Water, which would neutralize the weaknesses and strengths to the others entirely. (Also only Grass/Water's been done before, and I'm trying to use as many new types as I can when coming up with new types.

I also thought of the new enemy team (like Team Rocket/Galactic/Magma/Aqua), but I'll wait on posting that.

So what do you think, and who can you come up with?

I want an evolution for Heracross, and another for Gyarados and Arcanine. Hopefully Arcanine's evolution will have wings.
 
I actually meant posting minor stat/type/name/ability ideas of you Pokémon, though I haven't yet come up with a good name for any of the starters.

As for my "evil team," they're called Team Renegade. A major plot twist is that the government of the Ijin Region is corrupt and it turns out that Team Renegade is like Robin Hood's crew in a way. Of course, the government is so good at hiding their corruption that the general public has no clue and thinks the Renegades are villains. I also think it would be interesting if the player's rival actively declared allegiance to the Team in-game, especially if it happens before you find out they're covert heroes.

Those are all horrible ideas, since all three Pokémon you mentioned are already extremely strong competitively.

Arcanine especially since it has the highest base stat of any non-legendary/psuedo-legendary that isn't Slaking (and he's hampered by Truant).
 
I just want a pre-evolution for Meowth O^O No idea on names.

Man I'd HATE to have to name pokemon xD; if Mew wasn't taken it'd be perfect for a kitten Meowth.
 
I second the idea for a Meowth pre-evo.

I think it would be interesting to have some different types for starter pokemon besides grass/fire/water. Even with double typing for their final evos, I'd still like to see it changed up a bit. Electric, psychic, dark, flying, steel, ground, or heavens sake...DRAGON. HOW COOL.

Also, I'd like to see an evil team with a female leader.
 
In terms of a pre-volution for Meowth...

Minyu - A combination of "Minou", a common name for a kitten, and a slight alteration of "nya", what the Japanese percieve is the sound a cat makes. It's actually fairly surprising that a baby Meowth hasn't surfaced.
 
I've figured out a good idea for the Water-type starter's theme if we were to have it evolve into a Water/Fire type: Salamanders. The reason is because salamanders are amphibians who, way back when, would hibernate in log piles that people would use for their fires. Well, this would defrost the frozen salamander and it would crawl out of the fire, leading to the myth that salamanders were creatures of fire instead of water.

I also thought maybe having some sort of Fae (fairy/nymph/dryad/sylph/etc) for the Grass/Water starter, and some sort of swamp connotation for the Fire/Grass starter, but that would be hard to pull off, I think.

I also realized a small error I had made in my version mascot legendary ideas: the third game's mascot is always catch-able in both of the first two, whose mascots cannot be caught in the other. So I've erased Ophani (as I later remembered that the "im" is how you pluralize angelic names), leaving Cherub and Seraph as the first two mascots and Nephil as the last. And I was thinking of their types as being Grass/Psychic, Water/Psychic, and Fire/Dark or something like that.

My buddy Frank suggested an Eighteenth type: Light. Light attacks would be strong against Ghost, Dark, Poison, and maybe Psychic. They wouldn't be very good against Grass, Fire, Light, or Electric. The attacks wouldn't affect Steel at all. Light would be weak against Dark (At least) and strong against itself (at least). That's all we've really come up with for that type idea.
 
I actually was just thinking of a cool Pokémon idea when reading Bulbapedia's page on Missingno. A real Pokémon made to look like a glitch Pokémon. It could be entirely unannounced, have very strange stats and moves, and have an extremely unusual way of locating it. However, it would be a real Pokémon with a real number (at the end of the Pokédex probably). It could even be a variation of Porygon, if they'd like. It could be called Porygo1♀8& or something crazy like that, and its Pokédex data would be a bunch of gibberish. However, aside from its strangeness, it could still be combat viable and fair (no zero defense or 255 special attack and such). The best thing is, unlike Arceus, if people find it in the code, they'll just assume it's a glitch and people will actually be surprised by its release.
 
I'm still waiting for a Water/Poison platypus pokémon with no evolutions or pre-evolutions.

Porygon and Spiritomb combo for Sleet XD or Porygon Z= closest to a virus..but not glitch.

I'd like to see a Qwilfish evo, REAL Torkoal evo and a flying Eeveelution so we can finally have a full set Eevee team with the ability to fly...Vappy surfs.
Ghost Eeveelution...sounds cool and STAB for Shadowball.
Pachirisu evo...although not needed cause I love the little thing anyways.
Hmm...and very few legends...what can top Arcues anyways unless something like an Anti-god o_O
 
Pre-evo and/or Evo for Lapras
Male Kangaskhan and a Pre-evo for it.
Evo for Farfetch'd
Evo for Skarmory
 
I agree that skarmory should get an evo, but if you look at the pattern it's most likely that i gets a pre-evo.

Still waiting for a poison/steel type. And a meowth pre-evo. I'm not a cat fan, but I'd like to see those kittens.

I can't realize a male Kanghaskan. And Lapras is awesome as it is. Doesn't need an evo.

Less legendaries please (at least event ones)
 
A pure flying type pokemon, and kittens would be great. maybe an alternate evo for Poliwhirl or whatever, where it turns into a Water/Dark thing, or water/ice.
 
1) A princess of darkness. People around ffdotnet call Darkrai the 'Prince of Darkness,' and I would very much like to see all the hype if Game Freak came up with an idea of a queen for our resident nightmare king. :)

2) Steeleon, which would be a steel type Eeveelution. Along with Windeon, which would be flying type, perhaps pure?

3) Going along with the themes of trios and masters, perhaps a trio of three ghost or dark type legendaries that are controlled by a puppetmaster-like thing that could be a ghost/dark duo type. The three ghost or dark legends could be dual types, with the secondary types of Fire, Water, and Grass.

4) Another first Gym Leader which isn't a rock-type trainer.

5) A longshot, but what about differently-typed starters? I searched around and Fighting, Psychic, and Dark is a triangle of types much like Grass, Water, and Fire.​
 
1. I figure we could reconfigure Nephil to look feminine and make her the "Dark Princess" of the "Lord of Nightmares."

2. I'd actually like to see Draceon, a draconic Eeveelution, as well as a ghostly one.

3. The trio master of the Angels is Omeus, the "Son of Arceus." maybe next gen could have a ghost type uber-legend. (and who can see where I got that idea?). Also, the Angels I came up with are dual-type with Water, Grass, and Fire, though only one of them is Dark type and the other two are Psychic type.

4. Whatever. However GF wants to make it when it comes to the gym leaders.

5. There's actually a reason to keep it Fire>Water>Grass, as each is weak to the one before it and only resistant to the one after, with Dark>Psychic>Fighting, it looks almost the same, but Dark is immune to Psychic, not just resistant. Read that somewhere I think was called the Dragonfly's cave or something like that.
