Meltan is a curious Mythical Pokémon that seems to show an interest in all things. It has a soft body made from liquid metal – gallium – that gives it a very fluid shape. Its tail looks like a power cord or a plastic-coated copper wire with an exposed end.

#899 Wyrdeer

In Generation II, Stantler didn’t evolve. It was one of those rare one-shot Pokémon (that isn’t Legendary, at least) that most players tend to overlook or forget about. And it stayed that way for a very, very long time. But then, 20 years and hundreds of Pokémon later, Stantler finally (and unexpectedly) received a long overdue evolution in the form of Wyrdeer.

#234 Stantler

Stantler’s most distinctive features are its strange antlers. The shape of the antlers, and the black orbs within them, make them look like eyes. Stantler can distort reality and create illusions with these antlers by subtly changing the flow of air around them.
