Munchlax and Snorlax

Munchlax
The Big Eater Pokémon
Type: Normal
Official Registration #: 446
Entry: A cub pokémon known for its insatiable appetite. It is highly inadvisable to pick a munchlax up unless one is prepared, as despite the fact that its average height is only about two feet, its average weight is over 230 pounds. To be fair, most of this weight is not actually the munchlax itself but rather the vast quantities of food it stores within its shaggy fur throughout the hot and humid months. …Then again, considering the fact that these pokémon often forget about these stores of food for months on end, it may be more advisable to avoid coming into physical contact with a munchlax altogether.

Snorlax
The Sleeping Pokémon
Type: Normal
Official Registration #: 143
Entry: The evolved form of munchlax, via happiness. Snorlax is notoriously a difficult pokémon to train. This is a fact not so much because of its sheer strength or because of its unparalleled laziness but instead because of the fact that it eats over 880 pounds of food per day and begins sleeping immediately after each meal. Many snorlax follow a strict schedule when it comes to these meals, as the species also requires at least twelve to eighteen hours of sleep per day. Yet despite the fact that it is almost impossible to train due to the fact that most of its day is spent either sleeping or eating, its bulky body give it impressive defenses—which, combined with its arsenal of devastating attacks—make it a natural battler. In other words, despite spending most of its time doing anything productive, it excels without needing practice or training, much like that roommate everyone has at least once in college.

Rotom

Rotom
The Plasma Pokémon
Type: Electric/Ghost
Official Registration #: 479
Entry: While its natural form is a foot-tall ball of pure plasma, the intangibility of its body as well as its natural affinity to electricity make it a volatile research subject. It has been known to enter and control elec̜țr̢ọṇḭc͜ d̶e̴v̶i̴c̴e̶s̴,̸ ̷r̷̼͑ẻ̷͔s̶̙̋u̸̧͝ḷ̸͆t̵̞̓i̶̲̚n̶̬̔g̷̬̊ ̷̞̀ȉ̶̪ǹ̷̟ ̶͇̐ê̶͎r̸̗̍r̶̢̓o̵̤͒r̵̫͛s̶͎̅ ̵̥̚o̴͉͒f̷̯̈ ̷͚͒á̶̢n̵͕̓ ̵̟̀u̷͉̕n̷̫͌u̵̪͘s̶͙̅û̷̦a̵͙͠ḻ̷̓ ̴̯̒n̸͙̂ä̶̜́�̷̱̍�̸̦͌�̴͍͗�̷̹͗�̴̘̔�̴̼͠ *:･ﾟ✧(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ

Hey Bill, can we get your very important scientific perspective on TOGEPIMET- that is, on the Togepi line?

Ah, yes, the togepi line. Quite a fascinating one, actually!

Togepi
The Spike Ball Pokémon
Type: Fairy
Official Registration #: 175
Entry: A foot-tall, egg-like pokémon that possesses very little in the way of offensive, defensive, or—for that matter—any battling abilities. In fact, it is said that shell of this egg-like pokémon stores joy and happiness and that this egg-like pokémon’s main ability is spreading peace and love wherever it goes. You are, in short, battling the most baby-like of all pokémon, and it would be most advisable to rethink your life decisions if you find yourself in this situation. You monster.

Togetic
The Happiness Pokémon
Type: Fairy/Flying
Official Registration #: 176
Entry: The evolved form of togepi, as a result of a heightened sense of happiness. True to its defined species, togetic is a small, bird-like creature best known for its ability to spread happiness and luck to kind-hearted people. Conversely, it grows depressed and lethargic when exposed to the arrogant, selfish, and immature for long periods of time. Thus, while togetic is traditionally considered to be a symbol of fortune and prosperity to the people of its native Johto, in more modern times, it has also become the symbol of people with questionable taste in men. Such as this writer’s older sister.

Togekiss
The Jubilee Pokémon
Type: Fairy/Flying
Official Registration #: 468
Entry: The evolved form of togetic, by exposure to shiny stone. A large, bird-like creature that flies from region to region on a pair of great, pure-white wings. It prefers to migrate to peaceful regions, to shower the people living there with blessings of prosperity and peace as a reward for their efforts to love and respect one another. However, if it crosses a war-torn country, it is known for spreading peace, happiness, and justice by delivering unto any authority figure it finds the most violent uses of Sweet Kiss and Fairy Wind observed in the pokémon kingdom. In short, this writer wholeheartedly approves of togekiss’s political platform and is more than ready to vote for togekiss in the next general election.

Bill, what do you have to say about the Mr. Mime family?

Ah, the mime family.

Mime Jr.
The Mime Pokémon
Type: Psychic/Fairy
Official Registration #: 439
Entry: As a defensive maneuver, mime jr. mimics the expressions and motions of its predators. The enemy pokémon is thus so taken aback by this display that it can’t help but to hesitate long enough for the mime jr. to get away. The effectiveness of this maneuver may be difficult for some people to understand, so for a better idea of how and why this works, one should spend any amount of time in the general vicinity of a person and their younger siblings.

Mr. Mime
The Barrier Pokémon
Type: Psychic/Fairy
Official Registration #: 122
Entry: The evolved form of mime jr., by battle experience if the specimen knows Mimic. Despite its name, the mr. mime species is actually capable of being both male and female. Although it is difficult for this writer to admit, the name came from a notoriously sexist period of pokémonology and is based entirely on the misconception that only male organisms were capable of being terrible enough to manipulate impressionable humans into believing an object exists when it doesn’t until it does. As it turns out, both sexes of mr. mime do this, and the pokémonology community spent the ensuing sixty years pretending that the name came from an unfortunate translation error.

The Starly Line

Starly
The Starling Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Official Registration #: 396
Entry: Starly, one of the most common pokémon in the Sinnoh region, are known for traveling in giant flocks and generating storm-grade gusts of wind. Thus, despite being less than a foot tall, new trainers should be warned that it is a very wise idea to exercise extreme caution when seeing one starly on its own. That starly is by no means alone, and a trainer that mistakes it for being so stands a very good chance of being enveloped in a hurricane of extremely angry relatives.

Staravia
The Starling Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Official Registration #: 397
Entry: The evolved form of starly, by battle experience. Upon evolution, staravia are known to form flocks of their own that are considerably smaller than starly flocks yet also sizable in their own right and consisting of extremely loyal flock members. When separated, staravia are known to cry loudly to gain the attention of its flock mates, so should you spot a staravia on its own and should that staravia spot you and begin crying loudly, it would be best to run very, very quickly in the opposite direction.

Staraptor
The Predator Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Official Registration #: 398
Entry: The evolved form of staravia, by battle experience. Curiously, evolution spurs staraptor to leave their flocks and live completely on their own. Vicious and tenacious hunters, staraptor thrive by picking off and carrying small pokémon to their nests in the craggy Mt. Coronet, where they can consume said pokémon without interference from other staraptor. Also curiously, staraptor are not particularly fastidious when it comes to choosing prey, and this, perhaps, explains why starly and staravia travel in large and extremely loyal flocks.

Riolu and Lucario

Riolu
The Emanation Pokémon
Type: Fighting
Official Registration #: 447
Entry: Riolu have the ability to read the emotions of others as well as communicate its own emotions via aura. Yet it is a fighting-type, the single most likely type to engage in physical combat and thus the most likely type to endure great physical injury. For this reason, the riolu’s empathic abilities may be among the most counterproductive powers among the pokémon kingdom. However, at the very least, it should be a comfort for riolu trainers to know that the state will typically pay for any service a Nurse Joy provides, including mental counseling as a result of being in close proximity to a fighting-type that translates its pain into horrific light patterns.

Lucario
The Aura Pokémon
Type: Fighting/Steel
Official Registration #: 448
Entry: The evolved form of riolu, in response to both levels of sunlight and closeness with its trainer. Well-trained lucario have the abilities to sense the aura of all living things, understand human speech, read the thoughts and emotions of those whose auras they sense, channel aura into projectiles and weapons, execute extraordinary feats of physical prowess, and roll over and play dead for biscuits. This is why lucario are the second most popular pokémon on any given video sharing website, next to the members of the skitty line.

Pikachu?

Plusle
The Cheering Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 311
Entry: Contrary to popular belief, not a long-eared pikachu. Its abilities are best used in tandem with minun; otherwise, you have a very cheerful rabbit with the electrical strength of a battery.

Minun
The Cheering Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 312
Entry: Contrary to popular belief, also not a long-eared pikachu. Its abilities are best used in tandem with plusle; otherwise, you have a very cheerful rabbit with the electrical strength of a battery.

Pachirisu
The EleSquirrel Pokémon
Type: Electric
Official Registration #: 417
Entry: Contrary to popular belief, not a long-tailed pikachu. Not to be underestimated. Although its electrical strength by no means rivals the aforementioned pikachu, its tenacity and energy render it intensely difficult to defeat in the hands of the right trainer. Which has made at least one tournament against a certain dragon trainer hilarious to watch. (On the negative side, this also makes pachirisu infestations difficult to control, which is, to be fair, not entirely an issue except for that one time when one noteworthy specimen was responsible for a major blackout in Castelia City.)

Emolga
The Sky Squirrel Pokémon
Type: Electric/Flying
Official Registration #: 587
Entry: Contrary to popular belief, not a flying pikachu. However, just as potentially destructive as one. Fortunately, as buildings provide inadequate surfaces from which to jump off and land, emolga generally prefer sticking to forested areas, as trees are far easier to glide between. Unfortunately, this is of no comfort to anyone who happens to be traveling through the wooded areas of Unova—which is to say, everyone.

Dedenne
The Antenna Pokémon
Type: Electric/Fairy
Official Registration #: 702
Entry: Actually, this one probably is a close relative to pikachu. We’re still doing research into that.
