Sorry having not submitting recently, I'm taking a hiatus to let the creative juices fill back up

that and huge amounts of homework
 
Here's the subs!

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Pidgeotto
New Type: Fighting / Flying
New Stat distribution:
63 / 50 (-10) / 60 (+5) / 120 (+70) / 60 (+10) / 125 (+54)
Signature Move: Protective Blast (Special | Fighting | 95 BP | 10 PP | 90% Accuracy | 20% chance to raise the user's Special Attack by one stage | Z-effect: 175 BP All-Out Pummeling)
Design/Flavor: A guy from ancient times who was very protective of it's trainer, and anything that showed interest in him would get blasted by a Protective Blast. Other than that, there wasn't much recorded on this special variation.
Competitive Analysis:


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Spearow
New Type: Ground / Flying
New Stat distribution:
60 (+20) / 120 (+60) / 50 (+20) / 31 / 50 (+19) / 130 (+60)
Signature Move: Critical Peck (Physical | Flying | 80 BP | 10 PP | 95% Accuracy | Has a high critical hit ratio | Z-effect: 160 BP Supersonic Skystrike)
Design/Flavor: So uhh, thus guy digs. No idea why this special one does that, but it's believed to be related with it randomly learning Drill Run. It's not like it lost all capability to fly though, it still got that.
Competitive Analysis: This guy is basically asking for crit abuse. It has two STABS with a high-crit ratio, Focus Energy, and Sniper! Also has U-Turn if you're interested. Though this guy has a complete lack of coverage, but at least Ground/Flying coveres quite a bit.


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Hoothoot
New Type: Fairy / Flying
New Stat distribution:
100 (+40) / 30 / 80 (+50) / 86 (+50) / 105 (+49) / 50
Signature Move: Mythical Power (Status | Fairy | 10 PP | Resets the user's lowered stats and then boosts Special Attack by two stages)
Design/Flavor: This long lost Hoothoot has Mythical powers capable of keeping one alive for all eternity. It has been only rumored, as nobody actually saw it at all, infact, there's people still looking for it.
Competitive Analysis: This guy is actually a bully offensive threat. Thanks to the amazing ability called Tinted Lenses, and this new and jucy move to raise Special Attack along with decently powered dual STABs and recovery, Hoothoot can become a strong threat, but keep in mind the various ways to stop it. These include Stealth Rock, exploiting it's five weaknesses, and others as well.
Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Pidgeotto-Eternal
New Stat distribution: HP: 63 (+0)
Attack: 115 (+45)
Defense: 70 (+15)
Special Attack: 50 (+0)
Special Defense: 50 (+0)
Speed: 140 (+69)
Signature Move: Hyper Thrash - Physical, Normal typing, 10 PP, - BP, 100% Acc: The user madly thrashes itself toward the opponent, attacking it with immense speed. Hits 10 times, BP increases by 2 for every hit this move makes. Initial BP is 5. (140 BP total) Makes contact. Z-move: Breakneck Blitz, 200 BP
Design/Flavor: This Pidgeotto is incredibly hyper, and is unable to stop flapping its wings erratically. As such, its fighting style has changed, making it madly dash at the opponent until it faints. It moves so quickly that it is physically incapable of telling if the Pidgeotto is part of a flock. Aesthetically, the flare on its head increases in size greatly, and its tail feathers grow bushy, alike to Ho-oh's tail.
Competitive Analysis: A frail anti-lead, with incredible offensive prowess. Whilst its coverage movepool might be tiny, Hyper Thrash is all it needs to warrant a spot on a team, due to its effect of hitting consecutive times, allowing it to beat most Hyper Offense leads, bar Excadrill. However, it suffers from a few problems, in the fact that if it chooses to use Hyper Thrash, any Rocky Helmet user can proceed to OHKO it with recoil, assuming that it does not get OHKO'd back after 6 hits.

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Spearow-Eternal
New type: Dark/Flying
New Stat distribution: HP: 60 (+20)
Attack: 100 (+40)
Defense: 60 (+30)
Special Attack: 56 (+25)
Special Defense: 50 (+19)
Speed: 115 (+45)
Signature Move: Highwayman's Strike - Physical, Dark typing, 10 PP, 60 BP, 90% Acc: The user charges toward a weak spot in the Pokemon's defenses, and strikes. Always crits. Makes contact. Z-move: Black Hole Eclipse, 150 BP
Design/Flavor: Legends say there is a thieving mastermind in a flock of Spearow. It is unknown whenever it will strike, but if it does, it is after something valuable... Aesthetically, this Pokemon's feathers turn dark, alike the colour on its back.
Competitive Analysis: An extremely strong Dark-type attacker, with the equivalent of a base 135 BP Dark move. However, beyond a low power Flying stab, that's all Spearow has for itself. Despite access to U-turn to somewhat circumvent its very small movepool, its very middling bulk and lacking coverage definitely show out.

(This submission needed some serious balancing, the concept of 135 BP Dark-type STAB is already stupendously good.)

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Hoothoot-Eternal
New type: Psychic/Flying
New Stat distribution: HP: 120 (+60)
Attack: 40 (+10)
Defense: 80 (+50)
Special Attack: 60 (+24)
Special Defense: 121 (+65)
Speed: 30 (-20)
Signature Move: Eye of the Gods - Other, Psychic typing, 5 PP: The user reads the minds of every opponent on the field and gives details on their moves. Z-effect: Restores a Pokemon's HP to full, and switches out.
Design/Flavor: This Hoothoot has incredibly powerful eyes, and has learned to see even the ethereal. Whilst it may appear very smart, often times it does not make the right move, even after knowing an opponent's move. As such, it has adopted a leader's role in a group of Noctowl. Aesthetically, Hoothoot grows much more oblong, like its Noctowl evolution counterparts, but has two, glaring pink eyes, like its Hoothoot counterpart. Its entire body glows pink like its eyes.
Competitive Analysis: What might look like a mediocre wall is actually one of the strongest scouting options in the game. In Doubles metas, this Pokemon is even stronger at its role, being able to identify potential lures on a team. However, its lacking movepool and tiny offenses lead it to be overshadowed by more useful Psychic-types as a specially defensive wall. Make sure to utilize its ability well - this isn't something you can just stick on a team and call it a day.

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Hoothoot-Eternal
New Type (optional): Normal/Psychic
New Stat distribution: 90 (+30) / 30 / 50 (+30) / 104 (+68) / 76 (+20) / 101 (+51) = 451 BST
Signature Move: Mind Game | Psychic | 80 BP | 100% Acc | 10 PP | Special | Non-Contact | Effect: This Pokemon tricks the opponent into thinking that it will protect itself, causing them to run in, before quickly attacking with a Psychic blast. This takes the opponent by surprise so much that their Special Defense is lowered by 1 stage 100% of the time (Z-Move: 160 BP Shattered Psyche)
Design/Flavor (optional): This Hoothoot was born long ago with an interesting "disability." Instead of being able to fly, this Hoothoot has exceptional brain power. This brain power has allowed it to survive for many, many, many years where other flightless Hoothoot's wouldn't, almost as if the extra brain power allows it to live forever at this point.
Design-wise, it's a Hoothoot that a darker Gold than the shiny and has a slightly bigger head with slightly smaller wings
Competitive Analysis (optional): Hoothoot-Eternal is what happens when you take Tinted Lens Yanmega, remove the crippling weakness, give it a better speed tier, and make it a bit weaker. This makes Hoothoot-Eternal a big threat, breaking through most things with it's good Normal/Psychic/Fairy or Fire coverage backed up by Tinted Lens. Not to mention, Mind Game helps it break down walls with constant SpD drops, making sweeping a bit easier.


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Pidgeotto-Eternal
New Type:


New Stat distribution:

HP: 80 (+17)
Atk:
130 (+70)
Def:
60 (+5)
Sp. Atk:
38 (-12)
Sp. Def:
60 (+10)
Spe:
110 (+39)


Signature Move: Doldrum |
|
| 5 PP | - | The users summons Deltra Stream in first turn, the next turn will increase attack by one level, and defense and special defense by two levels
Z-Move:
Reset user's lowered stats

Design/Flavor: -

Competitive Analysis: Unortodox tank with no weakness under Delta Stream, who can recover, remove status (Refresh as an Pokemon XD Move), and boosts its stats to huge levels... Except it'll have to rely to Wing Attack because it's not compatible with Refresh, can be phazed with mons like Skarmory or Toxapex, Doldrum has few PP and has a low initial bulk.



Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Spearow-Eternal
New Type:


New Stat distribution:

HP: 66 (+26)
Atk:
130 (+70)
Def:
65 (+35)
Sp. Atk:
20 (-11)
Sp. Def:
65 (+34)
Spe:
95 (+25)


Signature Move: Sylph Strike |
|
| 80 BP | 10 PP | 100 Acc | The user sets Tailwind if it doesn't KO target after using this move. If it gets a KO, its critical hit ratio will increase
Z-Move:
Twinkle Tackle |
| 160 BP

Design/Flavor: -

Competitive Analysis: Flying, Fairy and Ground (Drill Run) gives it a pretty competent coverage, but those moves have low Base Power... We can use Sniper to solve that, but you need to land a critical hit and this is why Sylph Strike comes in play to increase this chance. Get a KO and increase a lot your offensive presence or hit an enemy Pokemon you have forced a switch with Sylph Strike and support your team with Tailwind (It can use U-turn so it can be used as a Tailwind offensive setter)




Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Hoothoot-Eternal
New Type:


New Stat distribution:

HP: 71 (+11)
Atk:
25 (-5)
Def:
60 (+30)
Sp. Atk:
120 (+84)
Sp. Def:
60 (+4)
Spe:
115 (+65)


Signature Move: Chakra Storm |
|
| 100 BP | 10 PP | 100 Acc | The user releases a powerful energy wave. 20% of chance to paralyze the target.
Z-Move:
All-Out Pummeling |
| 180 BP

Design/Flavor: -

Competitive Analysis: Tinted Lens is one of the most poorly distributed offensive skills in a Pokemon, but now Hoothoot-Eternal has a powerful STAB combination in tandem with a good special moveppol to take advantage of. It can even use Z-Hypnosis to increase its already great speed to another level. It's actually frail and its special attack it's not that impressive, but Tinted Lens is a scary ability to not understimate
no jiggs but i can deal

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Pidgeotto-Eternal
New Type (optional): Normal/Flying
New Stat distribution: 68(+5)/85(+15)/60(+5)/115(+65)/60(+10)/100(+29)
Signature Move: Sky Shredder - Flying, Special, 110 BP, 10 PP, 100 Acc, no additional effect
Design/Flavor (optional): A wild Pidgeotto bore witness to a trainer's Mega Pidgeot, and wanted to be like it. Years of attempting to replicate the No Guard Hurricane it saw boosted its Special power and its Speed, and allowed it to develop Sky Shredder. Its appearance reflects this, looking like Mega Pidgeot as applied to a Pidgeotto.
Competitive Analysis (optional): A substitute for Mega Pidgeot on teams that already have a Mega. While it's almost as strong and can hold an actual item, it's significantly easier to outspeed and rather frail.

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Spearow-Eternal
New Type (optional): Dark/Flying
New Stat distribution: 40/254(+194)/30/31/31/55(-15)
Signature Move: Death Drill - Dark, Physical, 255 BP, 5 PP, 100 Acc. User faints after use, always crits.
Competitive Analysis (optional): Death Drill is basically guaranteed to KO whatever it hits... but it's a one-trick pony since anything remotely fast (and even with Scarf and a Speed-positive nature anything that can hit 344) or with priority can easily revenge kill it, and Death Drill KOs it after use anyway. Probably broken in Doubles given Trick Room and all. (this is honestly a joke sub carried way too far so if you want i can change)

no idea for hoothoot yet but i'll get one eventually

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: (e.g. Floette-Eternal)
New Type (optional): (e.g. Fairy)
New Stat distribution: (e.g. 74 (+20) / 65 (+20) / 67 (+20) / 125 (+50) / 128 (+30) / 92 (+40))
Signature Move: (e.g. Light of Ruin - Fairy, Special, 140 BP, 5 PP, 90 Acc, User takes 50% recoil)
Design/Flavor (optional): (e.g. Holds a Red and Black flower and the green turns into blue on Floette's body. It is AZ's Pokémon and Floette helped him during the Kalos war.)
Competitive Analysis (optional): (e.g. Specs Light of Ruin = GG)

Name: Pidgeotto-Eternal

New Stat distribution:
HP:
72 (+9)
Atk: 75 (+15)
Def: 75 (+20)
SpA: 60 (+10)
SpD: 75 (+25)
Spe: 121 (+50)
BST: 478 (+129)
Signature Move: Wind Wake |
|
| 10 PP | Sets up Tailwind, and switches out, if the teammate switching in is a Flying-type it also gains +1 to its Attack and Special Attack stats | Z Move - Fully heals the teammate teammate switching in
Design/Flavor: Has a more aerodynamic feel to it and the red 'hair' grows a lot longer as well as its wings.
Competitive Analysis: Can help hyper offense as an alternative to Sticky Web, with a bigger Speed boost in exchange to a limited amount of turns.

Name: Spearow-Eternal

New Stat distribution:
HP:
50 (+10)
Atk: 130 (+70)
Def: 50 (+20)
SpA: 31
SpD: 51 (+20)
Spe: 129 (+59)
BST: 424 (+179)
Signature Move: Fearful Strike |
|
| 75 BP | 10 PP | 100% Acc | If Spearow doesn't KO its foe after attacking it switches out, if it does it gain +3 to its Attack stat | Z Move - 175 BP Black Hole Eclipse
Design/Flavor: Spearow now has black feathers and a much bigger beak.
Competitive Analysis: Cool offensive pivot with a really busted signature move, though, it can't really take any hits.

Name: Hoothoot-Eternal

New Stat distribution:
HP:
129 (+69)
Atk: 30
Def: 50 (+20)
SpA: 136 (+100)
SpD: 76 (+20)
Spe: 30 (-20)
BST: 424 (+189)
Signature Move: Mindful Strike |
|
| 75 BP | 10 PP | 100% Acc | If Hoothoot doesn't KO its foe after attacking it switches out, if it does it gain +3 to its Special Attack stat | Z Move - 175 BP Shattered Psyche
Design/Flavor: Hoothoot has two spirals on its eyes and they change colors from red, to pink to purlpe.
Competitive Analysis: Very bulky and powerful wallbreaker that can tank hits very well and dish out loads of damage.

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Pidgeotto-Eternal
New Type: Fire/Flying
New Stat distribution: 73 (+10) / 100 (+40) / 65 (+10) / 95 (+25) / 70 (+20) / 75 (+4)
Signature Move: Feather Friction - Fire, Physical, 50 BP, 10 PP, 100% Acc | Raises the user's Attack, Special Attack, and Speed by 1 stage. | Z-Move: 100 BP Inferno Overdrive
Design/Flavor: Straight out of Mt. Ember, this Pidgeotto with yellow body feathers and red outer feathers has a higher-than-average body temperature and a fiery spirit.
Competitive Analysis: Might not seem all that menacing at a glance, but when left unhindered, it can snowball and wreak havoc.


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Spearow-Eternal
New Type: Electric/Flying
New Stat distribution: 60 (+20) / 63 (+3) / 70 (+40) / 101 (+70) / 71 (+40) / 76 (+6)
Signature Move: Thunder Beak - Electric, Special, 60 BP, 20 PP, 100% Acc | High critical hit ratio; once per switch-in, increases the user's critical hit ratio à la Focus Energy | Z-Move: 120 BP Gigavolt Havoc
Design/Flavor: Having wandered off to the Kanto Power Plant, this yellow-and-black-feathered Spearow is capable of attracting lightning bolts with its beak. It uses the sharp and stinging nature of lightning to add a little edge to its attacks.
Competitive Analysis: Crit abuser. Doesn't have much for coverage, but after a Thunder Beak, it will always land critical hits with its dual STAB (regardless of item), making them effectively base 135 power. Can keep itself healthy with Roost and its decent defensive typing (granted 60/70/71 bulk isn't much). Needs Agility or Tailwind to offset its meager Speed, though.


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Hoothoot-Eternal
New Type: Ice/Flying
New Stat distribution: 63 (+3) / 130 (+100) / 50 (+20) / 43 (+7) / 66 (+10) / 99 (+49)
Signature Move: Arctic Beak - Ice, Physical, 100 BP, 10 PP, 95% Acc | Deals Ice- and Flying-type damage (efficacy details below) | Z-Move: 170 BP Subzero Slammer
Design/Flavor: From the depths of Seafoam Islands comes an oddly nomadic Hoothoot with fluffy white feathers, a blue beak, and a low body temperature. Using its beak, it can dole out strong attacks backed with arctic force.
Competitive Analysis: Arctic Beak is powerful STAB, especially off base 130 Attack, and—thanks to Tinted Lens—gets near-perfect coverage in tandem with Zen Headbutt (only resisted by Dark/Steel and Psychic/Steel). This Hoothoot-Eternal may be frail with poor defensive typing and an average Speed tier, but it can wreak havoc with Choice Scarf or Agility if given the opportunity. Supersonic Skystrike from Sky Attack is also a strong option.

Hoothoot: CoolMan6001(again, a self-vote, but Fighting/Flying doesn't have alot of resists ok? And that ice bird was wierd... No offense k)

Design/Flavor: Legends say there is a thieving mastermind in a flock of Spearow. It is unknown whenever it will strike, but if it does, it is after something valuable... Aesthetically, this Pokemon's feathers turn dark, alike the colour on its back.
Competitive Analysis: An extremely strong Dark-type attacker, with the equivalent of a base 135 BP Dark move. However, beyond a low power Flying stab, that's all Spearow has for itself. Despite access to U-turn to somewhat circumvent its very small movepool, its very middling bulk and lacking coverage definitely show out.

(This submission needed some serious balancing, the concept of 135 BP Dark-type STAB is already stupendously good.)

New Type: Fairy / Flying
New Stat distribution:
100 (+40) / 30 / 80 (+50) / 86 (+50) / 105 (+49) / 50
Signature Move: Mythical Power (Status | Fairy | 10 PP | Resets the user's lowered stats and then boosts Special Attack by two stages)
Design/Flavor: This long lost Hoothoot has Mythical powers capable of keeping one alive for all eternity. It has been only rumored, as nobody actually saw it at all, infact, there's people still looking for it.
Competitive Analysis: This guy is actually a bully offensive threat. Thanks to the amazing ability called Tinted Lenses, and this new and jucy move to raise Special Attack along with decently powered dual STABs and recovery, Hoothoot can become a strong threat, but keep in mind the various ways to stop it.

Early-Route Birds - part II
Taillow - Wingull - Staravia

Taillow will have a BST of 454, Wingull a BST of 439 and Staravia a BST of 484. Have fun :]​
 

Name of the Eternal Pokemon: Taillow-Eternal
New Type: Steel/Flying
New Stat Distribution: 80/56/79/105/79/55 (+40 HP, +1 Atk, +49 Def, +75 SpA, +49 SpD, -30 Spe) BST: 454
Signature Move: Refine- Steel, Status, 40 PP (64 Max), - BP, - Acc, Raises Special Attack and Speed by one stage. Changes all normal type moves in it's movepool into Steel Type moves until it switches out. Z-Move: +1 SpA
Design/Flavor: During wars in ancient times, Taillow were used as cannons, where instead of cannon balls, they used their metallic sound waves to decimate opponents.
Competitive Analysis: A neat setup sweeper with a pseudo steel -ate. With it, it can spam steel type Boomburst to it's hearts content. It can also use heat wave to decimate Ferrothorn and other steels. Unfortunately while it has a good defensive typing and stats, it is still not enough to tank multiple SE attacks.
Sample Sets:
Taillow @ Life Orb
Ability: Scrappy
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
- Refine
- Boomburst
- Heat Wave
- U-turn/Defog



Name of the Eternal Pokemon:
Taillow-Eternal
New Type: Water/Electric
New Stat Distribution: 40/30/55/95/55/164 (+25 Def, +25 SpD, +40 SpA,+79 Spe) BST: 439
Signature Move: Thunderstorm- Electric, Special, 10 PP (16 Max), 110 BP, 95% Accuracy, Deals Electric and Water type damage combined (like Flying Press), can't miss in Rain.
2x- Fire, Rock, Flying
Neutral- Normal, Fighting, Poison, Bug, Ghost, Steel, Fairy, Dark, Ice, Psychic,
1/2x- Water, Electric
1/4x- Dragon, Grass
Immune- Ground

Design/Flavor: Zooms around the world with it's bag of lightning, granted to him by Zekrom. He disguised it as a bag of money, so people would not attack him.
Competitive Analysis: The fastest pokemon in the entire Eternal Pokemon metagame. It can use it's strong Thunderstorm to hit Fire, Rock, and Flying super effectively, something that no other move can do. In rain, it is even better, as it doesn't have to worry about missing Thunderstorm and can use Hydration and Rain Dish to heal itself. Unfortunately, this pokemon almost always has to use a Choice Specs, because the other options wouldn't be strong enough. It also hates priority.
Sample Sets:
Wingull @ Choice Specs
Ability: Hydration/Rain Dish
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Thunderstorm
- Scald
- Ice Beam
- U-turn

Sp. Atk:
110 (+80)
Sp. Def:

Spe:
120 (+30)

Signature Move: Plasma Vortex |
|
| 10 PP | 100 BP | 90 Acc | Charges at start of the turn, during this moment it's inmune to priority attacks.
Z-Move:
Gigavolt Havoc |
| 180 BP

Design/Flavor: -

Competitive Analysis: Taillow-Eternal loses STAB Boomburst to give both, Sun and Rain teams a good wallbreaker and revenge killer. In Sun teams, it's able to bypass the danger Greninja-Ash shows by being able to avoid Water Shurikens. In rain gives a way to check some threats like Scarf Keldeo and Ash-Greninja again if used as a Scarf user.

Signature Move: Winter Call |
|
| 20 PP | - | - | Sacrifices 50% of it mash HP to set Hail and then Aurora Veil, then in returns to the trainer.
Z-Move:
Fully restores switched-in ally's HP

Design/Flavor: -

Competitive Analysis: Aurora Veil is a broken move, and Wingull can set it without the need to have Snow Warning or set Hail and spending two turns in this work, and has the ability to bring a partner safely under the protection of the veil. This move has a cost and is hard to being able to use this move multiple times due to its frailness and weakness x2 to Stealth Rock. It also can be used as a Cleaner thanks to its high speed and access to Ice Beam, Hydro Pump, Scald and Hurricane.

Signature Move: Miasma Well |
|
| 10 PP | - | - | Sets a well in the opossing team field, which does damage to the opponent when it switches in. The Miasma Wall also deletes opponent's boosts at the end of each turn, excepting for Steel, Poison, Ghost and Flying Pokemon
Z-Move:
+1 Defense

Design/Flavor: -

Competitive Analysis: 105/90 physical bulk with Intimidate and an actual decent defensive typing as Poison/Flying is actually good to check physical attackers. It can set also Miasma Well to help stall teams to avoid their weakness against set up sweepers. Aurora Veil teams WILL suffer against Miasma Well and in general any Hyper Offense teams lack a good way to remove hazards.

A) Guys, keep in mind the main aspect of Eternal Pokémon is to make the NFE take on a different approach, just making it a buffed version of its evolution is not really the goal here
B) These two are actually a little broken too, aren't they? Anything not named Chansey is either straight up OHKO'd by Specs Boomburst or coverage or is either left with a huuuge dent. And base 120 / 125 doesn't really help to balance it either. So please nerf and please try to make it a little different from buffed Swellow.
C) Those april fools sprites looking cleannn, btw!
I was actually changing it, I feel it uninspired, so wait a minute o3o
 
Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Taillow-Eternal
New Stat distribution:
HP: 54 (+14)
Atk: 110 (+55)
Def: 40 (+10)
SpA: 80 (+50)
SpD: 35 (+5)
Spe: 135 (+50)
Signature Move: Streamlined Strike: Flying type, Special 90 BP, 100% Accuracy, 5 PP | The user swoops down, causing a current of air to form, hitting the opponent. Changes its Attack type depending if the user's Attack or Special Attack is higher | Z-move: Supersonic Skystrike, 170 BP
Design/Flavor: This Taillow is a world-traveller - it has gone across various regions, adapting to each islands Pokemon and their fighting styles. As such, it has developed a single move interchangable for any situation. Due to its incredibly high speeds achieved going across these distances, Taillow-Eternal has its hair shaped like Staraptor's visor.
Competitive Analysis: Mixed attacker here we go! Capable of both Boombursting and hitting its targets hard with a Guts boosted Streamline Strike, Taillow-E is capable of taking down more offensive teams, whatever the situation. Whilst it fails miserably vs Steel-types due to its lower Special Attack and want of holding a Flame Orb, Taillow-E can adapt to most other situations very well. Not only that, but it can forgo the Flame Orb entirely to absorb Will-o-wisps from Pokemon such as Mew, with a bit of prediction.

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Wingull-Eternal
New Stat distribution:
HP: 50 (+10)
Atk: 60 (+30)
Def: 60 (+30)
SpA: 100 (+45)
SpD: 50 (+20)
Spe: 109 (+24)
Signature Move: Stormbringer: Water type, Special, 100 BP, 85% Accuracy, 5 PP | The user calls forth a storm of water from its body, which rains down on the opponent. Summons rain for 5 turns. | Z-move: Hydro Vortex, 180 BP
Design/Flavor: This Wingull has a much longer body, capable of storing gallons of water at a time. It is said that this adaptation has caused mysterious rain storms on the islands of Alola.
Competitive Analysis: A very nice Substitute attacker which can abuse Rain Dish + Leftovers with its signature move and stall more offensively inclined teams with its two STAB moves, Stormbringer and Hurricane. It can also run Protect on the Substitute set to essentially become unkillable due to its high Speed tier, however, priority does break this from slower attackers. Another flaw that Wingull-E has is its paper thin defenses and lacking PP, which means its tactic often doesn't last for long. However, the offensive support that Wingull-E brings is no understatement, and can make a decent substitute for Pelipper.

Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Staravia-Eternal
New type: Fighting/Flying
New Stat distribution:
HP: 100 (+50)
Atk: 140 (+65)
Def: 60 (+10)
SpA: 35 (-5)
SpD: 45 (+5)
Spe: 79 (-1)
Signature Move: Barbaric Brawl: Fighting type, Physical, 120 BP, 100% Accuracy, 5 PP | The user fights recklessly, at full force. 33% recoil. | Z-move: All Out Pummeling, 190 BP
Design/Flavor: This Staravia became fond of the surrounding Staraptors using Close Combat, and as such, Staravia became resilient, hoping that one day it might be able to pull off a Close Combat of its own. It trains in the heights of Mt. Coronet, smashing whatever it can with its claws.
Competitive Analysis: A bit more of a Honchkrow like spread allows Staravia-E to have greater longetivity with its recoil based playstyle. Not only that, but it takes less damage from Stealth Rock as a result of its type change, and has much better coverage than Normal/Flying. Whilst its speed tier may be underwhelming at times, you can't underestimate how blisteringly strong its Fighting-type move is - on the Mew scale, it registers a 1.18 with a Choice Band and an Adamant nature, which is almost as powerful as Medicham-Mega's High Jump Kick. As such, it has the potential to open up many defensive cores for the opposing team, usually at the cost of its life.

(old submission, marvel at an overused idea)

SpA: 40 (+0)
SpD: 80 (+40)
Spe: 69 (-11)
Signature Move: Barbaric Brawl: Fighting type, Physical, 40 BP, 100% Accuracy, 10 PP | The user slams its claws upon the ground, striking the opponent with shards of stones. Sets up Stealth Rock. | Z-move: All Out Pummeling, 120 BP
Design/Flavor: This Staravia became fond of the surrounding Staraptors using Close Combat, and as such, Staravia became resilient, hoping that one day it might be able to pull off a Close Combat of its own. It trains in the heights of Mt. Coronet, smashing the ground to scavenge for food. Whilst it may never be as fast or as frantic as its evolved brethren, its sheer bulk easily makes up for it, and as such, it is often seen to be far more puffed up than other Staraptor.
Competitive Analysis: A very defensively orientated Pokemon, able to set up Stealth Rocks, slow U-turn out of matchups, and Intimidate opposing Pokemon, being able to wall them easily due to its high Defense and HP stats. However, there are two things holding it back, mainly its mediocre Special Defense and its mediocre typing - whilst it does wall other EdgeQuake users such as Tyranitar and non-Flynium Z sets of Landorus-Therian, it provides little utility against more offensive teams, and as such, it is easily pressured. However, vs balance, it can quite happily get off Stealth Rocks, U-turn out, and bring in another mon to deal with the defogger.

E: Changed Taillow-E's description to more fit what I initially intended it to be

| 20 PP | 100% Acc | Raises Attack, Special Attack and Speed by one stage each | Z Move - Fully heals the user
Design/Flavor: Taillow has langer wings and feathers orbitting it.
Competitive Analysis: A cool mixed, physical or special sweeper, it can spam Guts boosted Brave Birds or Facade, Specs Boomburst or a mixed set wih both.

Signature Move: Stormbring |
|
| 70 BP | 20 PP | 100% Acc | Sets up rain after attacking and switches out to a teammate | Z Move - 140 BP Hydro Vortex
Design/Flavor: Wingull gets even slimmer and has storm clouds under its wings.
Competitive Analysis: A stronger approach to Pelipper, it is very powerful with Specs Hurricane and Scald, and is actually a decently reliable rain setter because of its great speed tier and pivoting move. However, setting up rain automatically switches it out meaning it will have to switch back in to abuse its own rain, which isn't the most desirable option, and the fast Stormbring isn't ideal when compared to Pelipper's slow U-turn. Still, Wingull is a huge threat specially if it manages to get rain up for itself.

BST: 484 (+144)
Signature Move: Gorgeous Strike |
|
| 120 BP | 10 PP | 100% Acc | User takes 1/9 recoil | Z Move - 195 BP Twinkle Tackle
Design/Flavor: The black and white on its body swap colors.
Competitive Analysis: Eternal Staravia is extremely powerful with Reckless Gourgeous Strikes and Brave Birds, but it has two weaknesses holding it back, the lack of Speed mandates some sort of Speed support, such as Sticky Web, and its complete lack of bulk doesn't help it take hits either making it fairly easy to kill. It also needs a Magnet Pull partner or some of sort of lure to Steel-types since its dual STAB gets walled easily, but if it manages to get all the support it needs, you can be sure it is a hell of a threat.

Working on Normal/Fighting Taillow, Water/Flying Wingull, and Steel/Flying Staravia


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Taillow
New Type: Normal / Fighting
New Stat distribution
: 39 (-1) / 125 (+70) / 30 / 100 (+70) / 30 / 130 (+45)
Signature Move: Fighting Combat (Physical | Fighting | 95 BP | 10 PP | 100% Accuracy | Becomes physical or special depending on the user's highest raw attacking stat)
Design/Flavor: A Taillow that specializes in... Combat over flying!? So uhh it's wings are somehow fists now and it somehow learns Brave Bird and Fly now without an ability to fly... Ah well, screw logic because other Pokémon do it too.
Competitive Analysis: OOH GOSH SCRAPPY FIGHTING/NORMAL COVERAGE HYPE!!! He can even run physical or special, thanks to the amazing sig move. If you choose to go physical, you have STAB return along with Quick Attack and U-Turn. If you go special, you get Heat Wave and the raw power from Boomburst.


Name of the Eternal Pokémon: Wingull
New Type: Water / Flying
New Stat distribution
: 54 (+14) / 30 / 55 (+25) / 105 (+50) / 60 (+30) / 135 (+50)
Signature Move: Rain Bringer (Status | Water | 10 PP | Sets up Rain and raises the user's Special Attack by two stages | Z-effect: Boosts speed by one stage)
Design/Flavor: While Pelipper auto-sets rain, this little guy whished to learn from them. He never got the chance to auto set it, but did get an amazing move from it's many attempts, which makes it more powerful than before.
Competitive Analysis: Meant to be a setup sweeper. I took an approach to rain cause Keen Eye is all this gets for non rain-activated abilities. But Hurricane will hurt and Scald also fires at decent power. It even has Ice Beam if you think your dragon is safe. But it's hard to set this up, and changing the weather can shut this down for good. Did I mention it's Stealth Rock weak too? Though if successful, the results are devistating.
