Don't ask me why, but apparently the gods favor this thing.

Shared egg group: Water 1
Offspring name: Maralel
New type: Water/Normal
New base stats: 84/62/65/47/65/65
New ability and desc: God's Gift (Huge Power + Moody) - This Pokemon's Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed are doubled.
Notable moves: Belly Drum, Waterfall, Aqua Jet, Frustration, Ice Beam, Superpower, Crunch, Scald, Shadow Ball, Swords Dance, Taunt, Quick Attack, Brick Break, Ice Punch, Knock Off, Play Rough, stealth Rock
Role identification: Maralel is a fast, bulky, physical sweeper with an amazing movepool and Belly Drum! It's original stats are utter garbage, but because of God's Gift, Maralel becomes extremely powerful. It has Belly Drum + good physical moves, Taunt if you decide that's good, and Stealth Rock which can also be very useful. Even without Belly Drum Maralel is still very threatening with its
Godly stats.
I. Am. Astonishing!

Offspring name: Marshopom
New type: Ghost/Normal
New base stats: 82/130 (+18)/75 (+2)/75/78/140 (+20)
New ability and desc: Mechanical Link - This Pokemon's moves that have 30 or less power hit 3 times.
Notable moves: Feint, Astonish, Spectral Thief, Double-Edge, Shadow Sneak, Close Combat, Ice Punch, Drain Punch, Rock Slide, Sucker Punch, Will-O-Wisp, Stone Edge, Poison Jab,
Mud-Slap, U-Turn, Seed Bomb, Knock Off, Fake Out, Thunder Punch.
Role identification: Marshopom has amazing Offensive stats, 140 speed, a great abaility, and a wide movepool. Obviously, Mechanical Link is a great booster to the moves Feint and Astonish. With Feint, it gets to hit now 3 times, greatly boosting the power in which you hit with Feint, making it better than Espeed! As with Astonish, you get more power + 3 separate 30% chance to flinch things in one turn! Talk about flinch god, Astonish does the trick! Now, while these 2 moves are the main highlight, it still has good coverage in Double-Edge, Knock Off, and Close Combat. Lastly, even though it may be a good physical attacker, meaning this final move doesn't hit Supern hard, it can be annoying as heck! And that move it Mud-Slap! Normally, Mud Slap is a 20 power Ground-type move that lowers the opponent's accuracy by 1 stage. So now imagine what happens when it hits 3 times! You lower their accuracy 3 times! That's really cool! Again it may not be physical but I still think it could be very useful.
Rawr, its the mechanical dragon of doom!

Offspring name: Rayklang
New type: Steel/Flying
New base stats: 100 (+18)/128 (+13)/95 (+3)/110/90 (+3)/75 (+3)
New ability and desc: Clear Lock - While this Pokémon is active, the effects of weather conditions and this Pokémon's lowered stats are disabled.
Notable moves: Shift Gear, Gear Grind, Iron Head, Outrage, Dragon Claw, V-Create, Espeed, Waterfall, Wild Charge, Volt Switch, Draco Meteor, Ice Beam, Air Slash, EQ, Stone Edge, Crunch, Dragon Ascent, Shadow Claw.
Role identification: Rayklang is an amazing physical sweeper with access to great setup moves like Shift Gear, a good defensive ability, and even a decent special movepool with god special attack. It's good 100/95/90 bulk is pretty good especially coupled with its awesome Steel/Flying defensive typing. Clear Lock is a very good ability, say if you have been hit by Parting Shot or other stat-lowering attacks. It also disables weather which can very helpful say if there is rain up and the opposing mon has thunder, BAM is not longer has its perfect accuracy, and it also helps against fire Pokémon in Drought/Harsh Sunlight. It's also useful against strategies involving Sandstorm/Hail. While the base form is extremely good on its own, you just cant forget its mega!
The mechanical dragon is even more mechanical and uh, can fly higher?

Offspring name: Mega Rayklang
New type: Steel/Flying
New base stats: 100/158/105/140/100/95
New ability and desc: Delta Stream
Notable moves: aforementioned, highlighting Dragon Ascent
Role identification: Mega Rayklang, upon Mega Evolution, gains a lot of things. Most noteably is Delta Stream which now make it have only 1 weakness, that being Fire! Now this is obviously easy to cover, you have 158 attack, EQ and Stone Edge, so Fire really isn't much to worry about. It now has 100/105/100 bulk which means it can live even more attacks now, and it's giant 158 attack is also partnered by 140 special attack, allowing it to take advantage of attacks like Volt Switch and Draco Meteor, which are also 2 great coverage moves! It also have V-Create, which is a very good and powerful coverage move that you can use to easily hit the Steel Type, and even if they have a Flash Fire Ability of sorts, you also have EQ! It can also hold an item unlike almost every other mega evolution, giving it access to Leftovers, Life Orb, etc. which can be very beneficial! Mega Rayklang is by far one of the most powerful Pokémon here that is not only powerful but
can live an attack or two. Or even three. Or even eight! :0
I love the rain!

Shared egg group: DNA
Offspring name: Crocodon
New type: Ground/Water
New base stats: 90 (+8)/125 (+10)/110/79/90 (+14)/82 (+8)
New ability and desc: Drizzle - On switch-in, this Pokémon summons Rain Dance.
Notable moves: Aqua Jet, Waterfall, Crunch, Dragon Dance, Ice Punch, Rock Slide, Superpower, Swords Dance, Shadow Claw, Bulk Up, Dragon Claw, Earthquake, Stealth Rock, Roar, Fire Punch, Hammer Arm, Hone Claws, Iron Head, Precipice Blades, Stone Edge, Thunder Punch.
Role identification: Crocodon is a very unique Pokémon. It looks like your average rain setter, with setup capabilities and a good movepool to couple with it, however it's the primal that really makes this stand out, and for a different reason. If Crocodon is holding Red Orb, now you go from being weak to grass with a 4x weakness to hitting it with Desolate Land boosts instead! This can a good surprise in a battle especially if the Yankees expect you to switch this in, predict it, and turns out, you were (or were not) holding the orb! Crocodon is a good mon that depends on your skill if you're going to use it.
I love the sun!
Parents: Groudon-Primal + Croconaw
Shared egg group: DNA
Offspring name: Primal Crocodon
New type: Ground/Fire
New base stats: 90/155/130/129/90/82
New ability and desc: Desolate Land
Notable moves: aforementioned - water attacks and + Lava Plume, Thunderbolt, Fire Blast, Focus Blast, Ice Beam.
Role identification: As I said, when it undergoes Primal reversion, it completely changes from being a rain setter to a Pdon thing, and stops having its 4x grass weakness to now hit it super effectively instead. It also gains a little bit of stats allowing it to hit harder physically and defeidnyl with it's special attacks. Though, in special attacks, Croconaw doesn't give much, it does give now Ice Beam, which can be very useful on a mon like Crocodon. Overall Crocodon is a great mon no matter whichever form you use it in, just use it carefully.
