Hi, welcome to the sixteenth Pokémonday voting post!
Last week's prompt was:
Ideas for a new baby Pokémon!
Same thing as I've said many times before now: lots of great ideas, shame I could only pick four. Keep those unpicked ideas as backup for when I repeat this prompt in the future! Vote in the poll below.
And now it's time to reveal last week's winner!
Prompt: Ideas for the Route 1 Normal type
Winning idea: a (lab) guinea pig that evolves into a mad scientist
Runner-ups:
2: an opossum that evolves into an undead possum (by Jolyon Griffith & Penguin64)
3: a rabbit that evolves into a jackalope (by DoubleAC)
4: a wolverine line (by the Negotiator)


So as you can see, I took some creative liberty and made the "guinea pig" look more like a classic lab rat because as I was researching I was fascinated by the Wikipedia article about lab rats. Apparently there are many different breeds of them and they're all used for different kinds of test. Borobrattle is a pun on the Brattleboro species of lab rat, which has a grey/brown hood. Also, I think it would be cool if they had randomly colored ear tags, just like Flabébé's flower:

Thank you all for your creative ideas and good luck to the ideas in this poll! May the best idea win!

2023-04-03 14:14:34 +0000 UTCYou did such a good job getting creative with that prompt and your research! I hope the person who came up with the lab Guinea pig idea likes it because I absolutely love it! I so wish this was in a real game cause I love the design and the different colored tags are wonderful and totally something GameFreak would do!
