Basic Information:

Pokémon Name: Echomata [Echo + Fermata]

Species Description:

Species History: It is said that in the beginning, Dialga let out a great roar and that this Roar of Time started the linear flow of events we now know as time. These powerful energies echoed throughout the world throwing everything into motion, but in particularly deep, echoing caverns the original waves never ceased, echoing on and on for centuries. Eventually these echoes coalesced into an odd pokemon the embodiment of an endless echo; a sound held forever; the first Echomatas.

Oddly, Echomata is incapable of making a sound of it's own only being able to echo the sounds of others and using it's sail to glide around on sound waves is it's best form of motion. Depending on how it's treated, when the time is right it may learn to make it's own sounds; or turn away from the idea of sound completely.

I'm looking this over and at first I didn't get it. I'm not big in the music and sound department. However, making all those moves, again, putting too much into this. Clear it up a bit. The moveset shouldn't be compiled with all new attacks. Stick to... Tackle, Leer, Take Down, and maybe Metal Sound. Obviously add more if you're up to it. Then... changing gender on evolution sounds slightly, maybe not slightly, weird to me. How does something that is genderless turn into a male or female (if that was what you're going for).

The moves it has in this form are all non-attacks. It isn't physical and it's special power isn't much yet. Also, it can't even make it's own sounds.

Ancient Roar - Reference to the fact that the pokemon IS an echo of the Roar of Time. Effectively it's a special, soundbased Dragon Claw; which using the "Dragon Claw" directly would make no sense.

Echo - Somewhere between Mimic and Sketch; limited to soundbased moves.

Hold - Area of Effect Encore; only effects soundbased moves.

These are NOT intended to be at all powerful. Of your suggestion, only leer is remotely possible and not really relevant to put on there because, well, it's probably not ever going to have a physical attack.


There will be another three or so custom moves with this chain (all 6 remaining members); those will actually be relatively strong.

Custom Abilities are also associated with evos:

Audiophile - All attacks from this pokemon are soundbased; regardless of if they normally are or not. [Made specifically to keep me from needing to make a lot of custom moves]
In Space - No one can hear you scream. All soundbased attacks fail, regardless of user and target.


It can evolve into an all genderless species; an all male species or an all female species as of right now. I might change that, but that's what is planned at the moment. There being a male of what looks like a Sirens (breasts and all) would be just plain wrong; made it's opposite all male and the center form, just stays genderless. Each chain would line up as:

Male:
:psychic :ghost -> :psychic :dark -> :psychic :dark
Female:
:psychic :ghost -> :psychic :water -> :psychic :water
Genderless:
:psychic :ghost -> :psychic :ghost -> :psychic :poison


I'm going to finish at least info on the others before I say anything else.
