Description
It´s a water/ice type pokemon with features of both a husky and a polar fox. It's the third stage of a starter pokemon. I'm not really sure what the first stage would look like, but I am sure that it would be called Flufsky.
Gracolar is a graceful and majestic pokemon, but it can be tricky and deceiving if it needs to. It's streamlined body and thick tail makes it a fast diver and swimmer, although it has some problems speeding up in the water if it doesn't accelerate on land first. It's fur keeps it warm in the cold environment it lives in.
The main problem I have with my own design is that it doesn't really strike as a water and ice type, which is partially because of my lack of drawing skills. I'm not really sure what I can add to the design to make it stand out more, so some feedback is appreciated.
movepool
The movepool is a very important factor for me to like a pokemon. Gracolar is specifically designed to not suck, so I came up with a movepool and stat distribution that lends it many options. It has a signature move called quench, which works exactly like scald, but instead of possibly burning the target, it freezes it solid. Here is a list of the most notable moves that Gracolar learns.
Main stab moves: quench, surf, hyrdro pump - blizzard, ice beam, freeze-dry, frost breath
Main coverage moves: Moonblast - aura sphere - shadow ball
Boosting moves: calm mind, agility - howl, work up - nasty plot
Main utility moves: baton pass, encore, wish - taunt - aurora veil, hail - aqua ring - trick
Gracolar can run sweeper sets with it's powerful stabs and coverage, along with a boosting move. It can also run different kinds of incredibly annoying serene grace + quench sets to make passing boosts or wishes really easy.
