I actually came up with these guys a while ago, watching a Kurtzgesagt video on weaver ant colonies. The basic premise was a mindless worker bug 'mon that eveolves into a representation of a colony. Midway through the design process I had a cool idea to make the evolution a radio tower and the pre evolution a radio controlled toy. It also draws inspiration from alien hiveminds. Bugs, radio control and aliens are the main themes in this evolution family. (BTW, it was a tough decision between Psychic and Electric as the secondary types, but due to radio-waves being electromagnetic waves and Orbeetle being part Psychic ith a similar aesthetic, I chose to go with Electric).

I also wanted to mention that I am playing around with the format of these arsheets. I need to strike a balance where the sheet still informs personality and is pleasant to look at while not taking so long thatI get burnt out of the piece. I think this is a good step in that direction. Be sure to tell me how you feel about the format! I am open to criticism.

??? | Secboid | Bug/Electric

The Mindless Fakemon

Simple/ Swarm / Lightning Rod

BST (Tentative) HP ?? Att ?? Def ?? SpA ?? SpD ?? Spe ?? = Total ???

Design Inspiration Secboid is based on colonial insects, specifically workers, and remote control toys. Its body is meant to look like an LED, and its tail resembles a parabolic dish for reception of radio signals. They also derive inspiration from the concept of "boid-behaviour" from animal behaviourial psychology and simulation.

Etymology Insectoid + Boid (Bird-oid object)

Dex Entry Secboid don't seem to have minds of their won - they are controlled by a central Hivemound. Armies of them will do the bidding of a single Hivemound leader.

??? | Hivemound | Bug/Electric

The Controlling Fakemon
Simple/ Swarm / Lightning Rod

BST (Tentative) HP ?? Att ?? Def ?? SpA ?? SpD ?? Spe ?? = Total ???

Design Inspiration Hivemound is based on colony structures, radio towers and mind control. It's body resembles a UFO saucer with its tendrils being based off of casts of the underground part of ant mound structures.

Etymology Hivemind + Mound

Dex Entry Hivemound are considered successful by peers if they contol higher numbers of Secboid. These Secboid bend to the Hivemound's will, making sure the Hivemound can live comfortably.

Secboid evolves into Hivemound when leveled up above level 29 while knowing the move Hypnosis.
