#103: Evaysprit- Between being able to disappear at will, living only in the darkest and least accessible ponds in the world, and its speed, Evaysprit is exceedingly hard to study and catch. This Pokémon is very curious, however, and comes up to any human that enters its territory to sniff them with its long nose. Evaysprit doesn’t have scales and takes in no breaths; top scientists say that it isn’t even alive and many agree that it may be the reincarnated spirit of Lapras. When Evaysprit swims near the surface of its ponds, the fin on its back peeks out of the water. This has sparked many conspiracies about mythical lake monsters, dubbed “Mock Less Monsters”, named due to their existence being a mockery to science. (Name from “evasive” and “spirit”)
#104: Eelokness- Evolves from Evaysprit with a dusk stone. This Pokémon’s rarity makes Evaysprit look like your everyday Rattata. While any trainer can evolve Evaysprit with a dusk stone, no wild Eelokness have ever been documented. The only tangible evidence we have that wild variants of this Pokémon existed is a passage from a wildlife handbook written in 1856. The author states he saw a Pokémon “at least four paces tall, covered nose to fluke in the thickest algae, a black kind of metal melded upon its sloped spine.” Researchers would have believed Pokémon may have gone extinct many years ago if not for a small but persistent group of locals who insist that once every full moon, a huge beast covered in deep black metal emerges from the lake. Mere minutes after appearing, they say, the Pokémon fades away and a deep fog rolls in. (Name from “eel”, “Loch Ness”, and “elusive”)
