Description
-Karope-Species: Lucky Pokemon
Height: 2'0''
Weight: 18 lb.
Type: Psychic
Description: Shy and elusive by nature, it is said that Pokemon will appear only to people with good luck.
The first Legendary Pokemon to be added to the O-Dex! This one is the "small & cute, but powerful" event Legendary, equivalent to Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, and Manaphy. What's unique about this one is how it would work:
No attendance at an event would be neccessary. Instead, one would need to assemble a team of any 6 of the following:
-Mewtwo
-Lugia
-Ho-Oh
-Latios
-Latias
-Groudon
-Kyogre
-Rayquaza
-Heatran
-Regigigas
-Dialga
-Palkia
-Cresselia
-Ekuvile (yet to be seen)
-Achiro (yet to be seen)
-Graitral (yet to be seen)
...And bring them to a special location only visitable after beating the Elite Four. There, the player would encounter Karope. Stats-wise, Karope would be like the others. However, upon reaching level 50, Karope would evolve. Completely at random, it would evolve into one of ANY of the Legendaries. Or a level 1 Magikarp.
Yes. That last one is completely honest. I figure the "Luck Pokemon" may as well be able to grant the worst luck imaginable, eh? Oh, and Arceus and Mew would also be much less frequent than the others (due to Mew's "learn anything" deal and Arceus being untoppable). The Pokemon that Karope would evolve into would be determined at the beginning of each player's game, so that turning the power off and trying again and again until you get what you want wouldn't work.

It's a cool concept, but I doubt that a Pokemon would be able to affect the game's save file (the turning your game off to get what you want thing). No Pokemon is that powerful. "I am the amazing Game-hacking pokemon! bwahahahaha!"
XDDD
(that was completely in good fun, and not meant to be insulting in any way)

its cool, but if its a event you shouldent be able to catch it by using a whole team of legends, in afct, i dont like the idea of having to use legendarys to catch it, because alot of people, including myself dont like using ubers/legendarys, and im also not keen on the random evolution, i know it was a joke, but why would it get to lv 50, then evolve and turn into a lv 1 magikarp, i dont think it should evolve, and it evolving into unobtainable pokemon isnt good either, or evolving into legendarys, but i do like him as normal, just a cool little event jackalope, he has potensial, but as i said before, you shouldent be forced to use legendarys to catach him, and he shouldent evolve.

That destroys the point.

Getting rid of those things would make it just a Celebi/Jirachi with a different sprite.

it woud hace different stats/movesets/abilitys, and evolving into legendarys is pointless, especially event legendarys

How is it pointless? It's the POINT.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its pointless because your most likely to already have the legendarys, so it evolving into them is pointless, and it evolving into event ones takes the point out of going to events, so anyone could get a arceus

But you'd have to be lucky to get Arceus. Hence the "Lucky Pokemon".

yeh, but then people could save before they evolved it, then keep turning on and off till they got, but it should evolve, just not into pre-existing legendarys

You clearly missed this part:
"The Pokemon that Karope would evolve into would be determined at the beginning of each player's game, so that turning the power off and trying again and again until you get what you want wouldn't work."

oh sorry, but what i think would be a good idea, is that its ability/signiture move should let it turn into a random legendary pokemon for 1 battle, then if you return then send out again itl be back to normal, till you use its move again, however its HP stat stays the same

ZOMG!!! KAWAII!!! *huggles it and puts it in my room with other Kawaii Fakemon* X3

Its cute. If it evolved into some pre-existing Pokemon though...I'd just give it an everstone. I'd much rather have that cute bunny-ish thingy.

I dunno about that level 50 evolve into an event pokemon. I mean, it's your thing.. but why would you make a completely new pokemon evolve into something that already exists, and in mewtwo' case , a pokemon that was created unaturally rather than naturally o-o. Plus.. wouldn't you think the whole level 1 magikarp thing is a little.. cruel and unusual? Furthermore the culminated work that the person did to put together six of those pokemon and their final reward is a magikarp... I think that would make someone want to cheat even more honestly..
I mean your art is fine, Karope could use a little more defining but still really good.
I dunno I might be full of it. o-o

The Magikarp thing isn't really serious (even though I say it is). And it's primarily to make all the Pokemon available, just more rare.

My buddy gave me the idea when he complained about the fact that you can't get event Legendaries normally, and how the concept motivates people to use cheating devices.

It does... I'm not gonna pay hundreds of dollars to go cross-country and spend hours or days in a building cram-full of crazy fans just so I can get a Pokemon... I'm gonna grab a code off the internet and stick the Pokemon in the game myself. Getting event Pokemon is the ONLY way I ever cheat though.

I still think having envent Pokemon is a stupid idea. It'd make more sense if they were catchable in a latter version.
For instance: Mew can't be caught in R/B/Y versions but can be in G/S/C, Celebi can't be caught in G/S/C but both it and Mew could be caught in R/S/E, Jirachi and Deoxys can't be caught in R/S/E but can be caught in D/P and Darkrai, Shaymin, and Arceus can't be caught in D/P but will be catchable in the next version of Pokemon assuming it and D/P have some way of exchaning Pokemon between each other.
...well, I'm done ranting for the day...

That's 'cause it's a jackalope.

its just the floating ball in the antler, which looks like a stantler antler.

It's the colors, I guess.

The neck thingy looks like buizels, and the size reminded me of jirachi, but its still cool.

You figured out the reference!
The "luck" concept was an afterthought that I realized fit in with both the random evolution and the "rabbit's foot" thing.
Oh, and you should feel proud. I got the idea of a non-event way of getting the event Pokemon from you.
Ad I think I'll go ahead with that edit.

It sounds pretty powerful. Nice job on the design. Good work.

Kinda interesting though I think it's too powerful...

I think you might be right. I'm strongly considering making that edit...
