I really like this! One thing though, Mantivern only has 3 dragon-type moves in all of its level up. Maybe add some more?

[Cyberknight98]

Mmmm... I really, really like this pokemon... the only problem is... We already have someone working on a mantis pokemon...

[Kim BC]

Yeah I know, I had this sitting in my showcase for months but just now posted it so it doesn't get passed up :x

[Devoxys]

Praygon sound too close to Porygon imo.

Praygon Base EXP yield should be 65.
Mantivern Base EXP yield should be 176. 410 is insane anyway


Hatch steps should be a range.

The level-up move levels are a bit random, you should take a look at them.

Other than that, pretty good! 

[rexthegamer]

What about mantagon? For the beginning name?

[Cyberknight98]

Mantagon is too similar to "Antagon", an already approved pokemon. What about Mantithe?

Too similar to Mantyke. I think Prayodea eorks

[pokemonvortex]

Lmao I just looked up the order for Praying Mantises and it was Mantodea. It was Praygon already so I slapped that onto the front.

[Cyberknight98]

Eughh... we have Mantine too... this may be harder than we anticipated... What about Mantorn?

[Salient]

Not so sure about Grass Whistle, as only grass-type Pokemong get it. Add 2 more moves after Supersonic and Tackle, that way it doesn't get Guillotine at start.

[Salient]

This looks good. You fixed anything I had issues with, and nothing else is prominent to me.

Approved 1/3

Approved 2/3

Tagging kizzo212 for QC

[kizzo212]

Few minor things. Either change or justify them and can't really see a reason not to approve.
- Not too sure about leaf blade as a level up move. The only non-grass types that get the move are gallade and farfetch'd, the former by move relearn and the latter through breeding. So I'd suggest either taking it out completely or changing it to a breeding move, or just a relearn move for Mantivern.
- Destiny Bond seems kinda out of place. I guess vespiquen gets it, but I'm not too sure on the reasoning behind it so maybe you could explain.
- Maybe Mantivern's name should be changed. Noivern exists, and we already have Charyvern (although not particularly convinced by that name either, kinda seems like charizard + noivern fusion or something), so feel like it would be a bit too much.
- Would also be nice to see a bit of an explanation to how exactly Mantivern would be a dragon type, with certain design features etc.
- For Mantivern the level up moves should really look as follows:
Start- Guillotine
Start- Dragon Claw
Start- Supersonic
Start- Tackle
Start- Leech Life
Start- Dragon Rage
03- Leech Life
06- Dragon Rage
Isn't really a big deal, but it's how all the other Pokemon are done, such that an egg of the Pokemon wouldn't end up with its relearn moves.

[Kim BC]

-Moved Leaf Blade to a relearning move
-Destiny Bond was because it's the praying pokemon so some sacrificial move like memento/healing wish/destiny bond was what i wanted to add. I had healing wish but someone suggested that destiny bond fitted more
-Changed Mantivern's name to Draydea
-It's supposed to look edgy and could possibly have scales as a subsitute for it's skin and it has wing spans like mega pinsir but wouldn't fly but it would be similar to vibrava's. Look up devil praying mantis and mash that with this encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQj0vi_jeN0Pbcq_xPLWK3kwNlhW3yhhyfYMOTOP1H4WguQlebg
-About the level up moves, not all pokemon follow that. Some pokemon get relearn moves by having 4 or less starting moves so i didn't see a reason in having more than four. It's not like a draydea egg is even possible. See Talonflame and Pyroar

[kizzo212]

In regards to the relearning I guess they realised that there wasn't really any point in gen6 since no evo eggs. But yeah doesn't really matter either way, more just keeping everything consistent. The design stuff sounds good, and the moves make sense I guess. So yeah, unique typing, cool design.

Approved 3/3

[rexthegamer]

Mega evolution: Design: Give it a few extra heads and a bulkier body with sharper claws and a extra wing set.
