pokemon Article: Gengar and Clefable

posted by usernameinvalid

Gengar and Clefable have, through trademarking and beta art, been proven to have been some of the earliest pokemon made. (Coincidentally, they are also some of the first pokemon when anda daftar the original 151 oleh index number, with Gengar appearing shortly after Clefable.) Also, Clefairy was originally going to be the mascot of pokemon (instead of Pikachu), so it was going to be a pretty important Pokémon. Gengar is known as the "Shadow Pokémon", but what exactly is it a shadow of? Take a look at a picture of Clefable, and then one of Gengar. Their body shapes are almost exactly alike, with the only major difference being that Clefable has a curl for its hair and tail, while Gengar has spikes. However, the shadow of an upright spiral like Clefable's tail would only be a line, atau a spike.

Now look at their typings. One of normal-type, and the other has ghost-type. Due to their immunities, neither of them could hit the other with STAB attacks, since they'd just be immune to each other.
Have anda ever tried to hit your shadow?

LostOblivion You may want to add that Gengar's name is likely based off the word Doppelganger, good article though.

Kallm3k9 Nice article. maybe your next one should be how cubone could possibly be a kangaskhan orphaned child if of course you've heard of it and believe.

LostOblivion ^I've heard Marowak was originally going to evolve into Kangaskhan but they removed it for some reason

Kallm3k9 Yeah and how caterpie was suppose evolve into venomoth and venonat into butterfree but it was changed at the last min too, and for the marowak thing, I saw this cool concept of how the baby kangaskhan would evolve into cubone if it held an item called cubone mask and if it didnt it would just evolve into a kangaskhan which would of been a cool idea but it didnt happen,they changed a lot of things at the last sec but o well it worked anyways even if what they decided at the end doesn't make so much sense.
