the rolycoly line

[slateport-welders-union]

Alright lets get outta the way i got shit to do

my name is Brazer, designation WLD-06 of the sole only produced Element bot of my line. i work with and for the Slateport Welder union, basically we take jobs like ship repairs, ship building, repairs and inspections of structures, and all that dumb as hell jazz. now here's my trainer team card n' shit

Forge the steelix: Adamant nature and my partner, has a mega form variant hailing from a far away region, prefers to laze about while i work. but does help with crushing stuff or chewing on metal too big for scrapper and lug certain parts. stone was found at a market place and was giving me a keystone... not sure on why it works given me being a machine and all....

Blowtorch the magmortar: Jolly nature, likes to help out with melting things or braze weld with me, most active of the team, and keeps scrapper and foundry from fighting too much

Furnace the rolycoly: quiet nature, just along for the ride, often plays with scrapper and blowtorch when bored

Scrapper the aron: shiny, rash nature, lil bastard i adore, eats left over scrap or metal from me cutting metal or ship building. is the second most active of the group

Kelm the numel: calm nature, least active of the team, prefers to just laze with Forge, will eat your berries or food if not careful.

and there thats it. well aside from what i look like:

now get going you fleshsacks i have shit to do!

//ooc below

yoo its me again mod wiral and owner of the blogs @wyrdo01, @flowroma-town-apiary ,@snowbell-glass-bar, @veil05thegrasselementbot, and @amperage-speedway here with another element bot that resides in hoenn!

this character is alot more rude than others outright so do be noteful of this since shes a lot more absorbed into her work, interacting with her will be a bit infuriating with certain people. so this might not be for everyone here. also theres mentions of injuries and things catching on fire so you have been forewarned.

Oh!!! my beautiful blue coal baby!!!

Just got a shiny while hunting Tornadus!! I love the Rolycoly line ;v;

[dreamsmp-au-ideas]

(Okay so I wrote this all down once now I gotta do it again rip me)

(For the myster dungeon AU) Okay so purely jokingly Wilbur is a Heatmor, my reasoning: “Man wouldn’t it such if Wilbur was an anteater? He hates those!” “...” *remembers this AU* “...Heatmor’s an anteater”

More seriously I think he’s one of the two Toxicity’s, low-key is kinda the one I vibe with better but both work.

And another kinda jokey one: Skeppy is any of the shiny Rolycoly line, cuz those bois do be looking like diamonds

-Green

I can’t believe Wilbur is an anteater in this au.

But yeah Toxicity is probably something that can work. Low-Key defintely. Or we can make him a Chatot or a Kriketune. Why? I don’t know. I just like the vibes for some reason.

Skeppy as a Rolycoly is great but if we going for a more serious one, then maybe an Amaura? You know, those ice rock dinosaurs.

It's also common for people to call the shiny Rolycoly line "Diamond Minecart".

That’s actually very funny

Okay, a list of pokemon I Really Like for gen 8

New Pokemon

Sobble- not it’s evolutions, but damnit the first stage starter itself is easily my favorite, so cute, much four legs, very tiny

Greedent- I just think it’s cute, I don’t know why, it tickles that same part of my brain as Bibarel, ‘it’s friendly and fat and will love you forever’, I feel like people use them as nanny pokemon

Rookidee, Corvisquire, Corviknight- I wish the line had a more cohesive color scheme (the shiny versions do) but really it’s a solid bird line that does the transition from chickadee to raven fairly well, plus Rookidee is incredibly cute and the other two are badass in their own ways, haven’t had a middle bird evo I’ve found so good since Pidgeotto

Wooloo, Dubwool- holy crap Wooloo is cute, and Dubwool is just, such a good sheep, they are wonderful and I am happy to have them alongside the Mareep line

Drednaw- another turtle, a big turtle, bitey turtle, I love him and will protect him

Rolycoly- I don’t even know why I love this little guy, is it the one eye? is it the wheel? who knows, whatever it is the evos lose it

Applin, Flapple, Appletun- They’re apples, and dragons, and one is a pie, how am I not supposed to be in love?

Centiskorch- I’ve wanted a fire-type centipede, so this is sorta a dream come true, kinda, plus the gigantomax form is just... holy shit

Runerigus- that’s just, such a cool look for a ghost type, haunted ancient artwork

Falinks- it’s a conga line!

Pincurchin- it’s an electric type, it’s a sea urchin, it has Wurmple’s butt-mouth, what’s not to love?

Snom, Frosmoth- 1) I love jewel caterpillars, 2) I love moths, 3) just look at these damn soft, pretty things, 4) it’s name is Snom, come on!

Copperajah- I just love the color scheme on it, I’d love that color scheme on a fucking hotdog

Dreepy, Drakloak, Dragapult- they’re ghost dragons that either long to be yeeted, long to be parents, or long to use their smalls as missiles

Eternatus- it’s a fucking skeleton alien dragon, it’s right up there with the Ultra Beasts in ‘is this thing even a pokemon’ designwise, and it’s just so fucking badass

Galarian Forms

Ponyta, Rapidash- listen, I’ve been into My Little Pony for about 24 years, let me live

Stunfisk- nothing can make me not love Stunfisk, not even removing it’s electric typing, I mean come on it’s a fucking beartrap now

[multiscales]

I found for myself that this time around I am just not liking the look of the Pokemon and most of the new trainers so far. Allister is the only one I've really liked and he's game-locked, and out of the new Pokemon, I've really only liked are Sobble, Zacian and Corviknight. With SM, I liked nearly every single pre-release Pokemon. Add in that I find Dynamax very meh, I have a feeling this is gonna end up on the lower end of the series game tier for me. Hopefully I'm wrong.

@vengerturtle

Same.

It’s hard to admit to not being impressed by certain Pokemon designs because Pokemon fans are super against that and if you even say you dislike one they think you’re a genwunner then cherry pick a gen one Pokemon that also fits your criticisms. That being said looking at this new batch of Pokemon, I’m not too enthralled by thus far. Eldegoss-line looks pretty exotic as a Grass-type, interested to see where Rolycoly goes, Corviknight’s pre-evolutions might make me a fan of bird Pokemon again. Everything else seems kind of easy to digest? 

It’s hard to explain, the new Pokemon don’t look bad...they just all look kind of generic for the most part, I want more Pokemon that look like well...monsters? Sobble/Scorbunny/Grookey all have the same cutesy body and big head, Wooloo and Yamper are cute and that’s all I find appealing about them, Drednaw is okay? Very smooth and shiny? Alcremie’s motif was already done better by Slurpuff and Duraloon’s design coming from mecha Godzilla is cool but it’s sprite looks so unnatural, it’s hard to picture this thing existing as a creature in the Pokemon world let alone Tyranitar’s rival. Galarian Linoone-line is good, wish the evolution was less humanoid tho.

The new Pokemon aren’t bad, just very okay.

Don’t worry, honestly it seems like a lot of people have some not great predictions or mixed feelings on SnS, I hope it’s good but at the same time the dex culling seems to have really shaken people. It’s naturally easy for people to be apprehensive or critical of other aspects of it thus far. Even if I like Corviknight doesn’t it matter when it gets stuck in HOME next generation even when I’m attached to it? The characters and story, oh my god please not another clone of Team Skull with them being silly idiots and then an Aether’s Foundation-type betrayal, it’s so obvious. Just tired of the one new super battle gimmick a generation loop we’re stuck in.

the coalossal line

[krikidilly]

ooo ok, what would u want the shinies for the rolycoly line to look like?

Ooo buddie! I'll probably draw it a little later but!!! I hope theyll sorta have a shiny/polished minecart vibe? Like the dirty dark grey is a softer more whiteish grey and all their rocks have a more blueish tint (like diamonds) or maybe a gentle ruby red!

[thatguysamaniac-blog]

If you're one of the three bots that occasionally crawls past this website, you'll know that Team TGAM are huge Pokémon fans and this half of Team TGAM is a self styled rock type connoisseur. Now the dust has settled, well barely, following Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield's (SW/SH) launch it's a good time to look at what this game has done for rock type pokémon. Sir Not Appearing In This Game Well, making no bones about it, the decision to not include all of the known pokémon species from previous games in SW/SH has been pretty rough for the rocky bastards. Of the 62 rock type pokémon available in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon, as measly 22 made it through the Thanos snap. That means, at the time of writing, there's no Geodude line, none of the 'true' fossils, Magcargo, Nosepass line, Aggron line, Relicanth, Regirock, Carbink, Diancie, Rockruff line, Minior or the two ultra beasts. Soooo not a great start. Teaser/trailer stuff for the expansion has shown that at least Aurorus, Regirock and some of the Rockruff lines will be returning which is interesting. Is it reasonable to assume that Aurorus' inclusion means that all the fossils will be back (including Omastar!!) or will they be roaming in the field (making shiny hunting that little bit easier). Only time will tell. Hopefully all the forms of Lycanroc will be back and undoubtedly one or two others will hopefully be reappeared in the expansions. For the time being though, two thirds of the old rock types are MIA. Golden Oldies Of the 20-odd that made the cut, it's not clear what the decision making process was. There's some love for genwun classics Onix and the Rhyhorn line, then the Generation 2 dross mon Shuckle, Corsola and Sudowoodo. Tyranitar's back to top tier in current competitive formats like it's 1999 again. Then there's geodude's exotic cousins the Roggenrola line, nobody's favourite Crustle and the abomination that is Barbaracle. Terrakion got added back too and who doesn't love a gruff emo rock dog? Weird choices throughout I think. Very much the rock type B sides.  New Stone Faces If the cut wasn't bad enough, there's only a stingy five new rock types, in line with Generation 7's contribution. In terms of type combinations, nothing new is added to the mix (rock/ghost and rock/normal are the two dual typings still not seen in games so far). Let's have a look at them in turn.  Drednaw Taking a leaf stone out of Magcargo's book, Drednaw only gains a rock typing in it's first stage evolution. Itttt's yet another water and rock type like Corsola, Relicanth, and the Carracosta line and reversy-percy rock and water types, Omastar, Kabutops and the Barbaracle lines. This typing combination brings a debilitating weakness to grass types. Seriously, opening a window on a high pollen count day runs the risk of OHKOing these rawter types. Flavour wise, it's yet another hero in a half shell pokémon, seemingly taking inspiration from snapping turtles. That's not all though, it comes with a Gigantamax form turning into a bigger spikier turtle and gains access to the unique move G-Max Stonesurge, a blast of water that lays stone traps. Absolutely useless for raiding and yet to see any use on the eSports stage. Stats-wise, there's some physical bulk there and decent HP but less than stellar special defense and speed LIKE ALMOST EVERY OTHER ROCK TYPE. I went through the game with one on my team and I liked the diverse movepool and the boost to bitey moves in the ability strong jaw. It also has access to so-so ability shell armour and weather-boosted swift swim. Thanks to the dynamax mechanic, it's extremely hard to control the weather with any consistency so even this ability can't be relied on to get Drednaw's skates on.  Rolycoly, Carkol and Coalossal I've got a lot of time for rock and fire type Coalossal, design wise. The first two stages are a lump of coal and a minecart full of coal and the last stage is a rocky burning furnace. Alongside Galar Weezing and Cursola it's part of stable of industrial revolution and climate change themed pokémon, paying homage to how the UK totally fucked it's environment back in the 19th Century and then spread those tools across the world. I also use a flame body Carkol to hatch eggs quicker and really like the idea of bombing around with a stack of eggs precariously bobbling around in this pram from hell. It also has some ace flavour moves in the move tar shot which makes target pokémon weak to fire moves and one use only burn up which makes Coalossal lose it's fire typing making it a little less frail to water moves. The idea of these moves is nice but it's a generous opponent who gives you time to set either of these up. It's a bulky pokémon for sure, but slow. Also comes with a full-on Mordor inspired gigantamax form and the G-Max move Volcalith which leaves burning hunks of rock on the field that deals damage in between turns. I LIKE IT and the movepool gives it options. It just remains to be seen whether it'll find a place in a very fast and offensive meta game that's dominating at the moment. Stonjourner Obviously inspired by stone (and other) henge(s), Stonjourner is a pure rock type Shuckle from a couple of Universes over. Where Shuckle has ridiculous defenses and laughable everything else, Stonjourner is physically ridiculous but with base special attack and base special defense of 20. 20! Unfortunately with stats this infamously awful, your best bet with a competitive Stonjourner is to hope that your opponent didn't see it on your roster and if they did, assume you wouldn't pick it and hope for a late game victory once anyone who took even an introductory class in special attacking has been KO'd. I've not played around at all with Stonjourner's capabilities as it's a Sword exclusive. It has a cool new gym bros ability in power spot which boosts allies attack by 30%. It has an incredibly rocky movepool which I like (and hilariously ancient power as an egg move for that surprise SpAtk Stonjourner) but on initial glance it's good at punching very hard at a medium pace but that special defense Achilles' heel makes for an obvious and easy target.   SW/SH has given a few nice flavourful rock types and it may be that there's some slow burning strategy to these. I've not seen any of these get much play at the major tournaments of the SW/SH Series so far over old faithful rock types Tyranitar and Rhyperior and with a wide range of water, grass, fighting, ground and steel threats out there it's easy to see why. June's expansion to SW/SH brings a few old favourites back into the mix, and here's hoping for a few old and new surprises from the upcoming content.
