If you like ninjas, you should all read Dr. McNinja. It is a webcomic about a ninja who is also a doctor, and it's great. this is free advertising, Mr. Hastings, you should be paying me.


So, here's the deal - trade a Karrablast for a Shelmet, and they both evolve, but not like you'd expect. Karrablast apparently steals Shelmet's armor, and uses it to evolve into Escavalier. and Shelmet, after having its pride and joy ripped from its hands like a cruel tennis player taking Twizzlers from a fat kid, goes berserk.

but after that, it calms down, and trains. It trains like a Bruce Wayne, and develops the ability Sticky Hold, so that it will never have to know the pain of something being taken from it again. It becomes a ninja. It becomes the night. It becomes revenge.

It also becomes one of the fastest mo-fos around, and generally looks like a badass. That pose, I have to say, is one of my all-time favorites. Leaning back with arms crossed, I mean. The ninja scarves and helmet are bonus points.

really, the only NOT amazing thing going on here is that it's only pure Bug, which somewhat limits its ability to do things, but it certainly looks cool doing what it does. and also if we're being honest here it looks nothing like a Pokemon. but that happens when you become a friggin NINJA.


Overall: 9/10
