ant line 3.png
Keleri Eevee ant! All of the species classifications for this line are based on chess pieces from the standard game and from fairy chess. These pokemon are part of a branching evolution line where the middle forms differ in their types, moves, stat spread, etc. but can evolve again into a common final form. However, the stats of the final form will differ depending on the previous evolution. The middle forms are intended to be useable as they are although the final form is more powerful.

Not all of the evolutions are based strongly on ants or other hymenopterans, and incorporate other insects’ features. (Part 3 of 4)

    Oberant remains my favorite of the line (but let's be honest, they're all awesome!). Get Pucked and Stab no Jutsu are by far the best names for Pokemon moves to ever exist! XD I really want to know what the stats on those are because they just sound so fun.
