What are your thoughts on a Pokemon based off the Glaucus Atlanticus Sea Slug? Sure we have an over abundance of water types, but not enough slugs (Only the Slugma and Shellos family :I) but I think it would be a very interesting species to base a Pokemon on.

I sort of feel that it would be stepping on Shellos and Gastrodon’s toes a little bit, since they already did the ‘sea slug’ thing.  They didn’t really emphasise the sheer variety or the otherworldly beauty that sea slugs and nudibranchs can have, this is true… but if that’s all we’d have in mind, I actually think it would make more sense just to create additional forms for Shellos and Gastrodon.  It’s established that there’s regional variation in their shapes and colours, but so far we only know what they look like in Eastern and Western Sinnoh; there’s plenty of scope for more.

Basically, what I’m saying is that I’m only happy with it if there’s more to the design than “it’s pretty.”  I suppose maybe if you focused on that weird ability it has to absorb and concentrate poison…
