(sorry I know I usually get my ideas commissioned, but I wanted to hand draw this idea first, then maybe someday in the future I'll get a commissioned)
these are the early route plant pokemon for my region. They're based on potatoes, the fact that potatoes can produce energy for some reason, electric wires, and the story of Frankenstein's monster. They're both electric/ground Type, and they both have a new signature ability (I don't know what to call it, but their attack and speed attack stats are slightly increased).
the First stage is called "Zapotato". They live in the farms across the erifin region, and can also be found near electric power plants. They constantly grow mysterious red and blue sprout, Which are incredibly electro conductive. it can use these sprouts to shoot off electric attacks in battle. Even though they're born with a large amount of power, they go through it fast, so to make sure they don't run out of electricity they stab a piece of metal into their body (usually a screw) and wait for a lightning storm. When a lightning storm does occur, they will quickly make their way to the highest available area, Essentially making them Living lightning rods. It is because of this process, Along with several other injuries, That they've developed The ability to stitch their miner wounds. However, some parts of their body Will permanently be disconnected, Causing them To rot and turn green.
they evolve into "Spudtrosity" when you have A full team of six Zapotato Who are at low health. when extremely injured, Zapotato Will gather together and fuse into a larger and stronger form, which is how they evolve. this process is very uncomfortable, and they Scare most Pokémon, and people away by their creepy appearance, leaving them depressed most of the time. They will often Follow a random Pokémon or human around for days on end, Observing them and learning about them, They will then try to insert themselves into their Pokémon or humans life, Often leading to disastrous results. If The human or Pokémon is in danger, It will fly in and attack their sailing, no matter what.
