#hyper shining force

Team Missile is the Gralenor Region's main criminal organization, while JetCo. is their leading tech company...and also secretly a front for Team Missile. They've managed to maintain the illusion using the Hyper Shining Force, a team of heroes (inspired in-universe by the Ultra Guardians and magical girl anime) put together by JetCo. to protect the region, particularly from Team Missile's operations.

They also use their own version of Mutant Pokemon created using Dr. Splicer's research (Team Missile started using them as soon as they managed to create successful specimens, while JetCo. waited until well after the research went public to avoid suspicion).

JetCo's "Genmo Pokemon" are created either for specific jobs, to be the Partners of the HSF, or to be domesticated, marketable versions of dangerous and "unpleasant" Pokemon. Meanwhile Team Missile's "Gruesome Pokemon" are intended to Very Visibly be Weapons, though there are a few that are failed attempts at Genmo Pokemon that still resulted in usable Pokemon.

I intend to make more, but here's the ones I've got so far:

Genmo Pokemon

Genmo Charmander The Lizard Pokemon Fire/Steel Ability: Caged Fire- The Pokemon’s Steel Type Moves have a chance to inflict burn, but the Pokemon’s Fire Type moves are less powerful

Genmo Charmeleon The Torch Pokemon Fire/Steel Ability: Caged Fire Evolves from Genmo Charmander at Level 16

Charguana The Torch Pokemon Fire/Steel Ability: Caged Fire Evolves from Genmo Charmeleon at Level 36

A Charmander made safer for those around it by encasing its tail flame in a steel lantern. It’s not as energetic as the original, and its new final stage is ground-bound and semi-quadrupedal.

Genmo Shuppet The Puppet Pokemon Fairy Ability: Healer/Insomnia/(Hidden)Magic Bounce

Budnette The Marionette Pokemon Fairy Ability: Healer/Prankster/(Hidden)Magic Bounce Evolves from Genmo Shuppet when leveled up with high Friendship

In order to create a friendlier, more approachable, more marketable alternative to Banette, Shuppets in GenCo’s care are given all the affection they crave…and cloth woven from Hatterene Hair.

Genmo Gligar The High Flyer Pokemon Flying Ability: Ability: Wind Rider/Weak Armor/(Hidden)Immunity

Genmo Gliscor The Dark Justice Pokemon Flying Dark Ability: Wind Rider/Defiant/(Hidden)Immunity Evolves from Genmo Gliscor when exposed to a Demon's Tooth at Night

Gligar have been given the ability to truly fly, at the cost of their Ground Type and physical stats. Gliscor regains that strength in a new way, as well as a strong sense of justice.

Genmo Tympole The Tadpole Pokemon Water/Normal Ability: Amplifier- All sound-based attacks increase in power when used repeatedly. Echoed Voice is not affected due to already having this property/Hydration/(Hidden)Liquid Voice

Lyritoad The Vibration Pokemon Water/Normal Ability: Amplifier/Hydration/(Hidden)Liquid Voice Evolves from Genmo Tympole at Level 25

Amplitoad The Vibration Pokemon Water/Electric Ability: Amplifier/Radio Wave- The Pokemon’s Sound-Based Moves become Electric-Type/(Hidden)Liquid Voice

Designed to lean further into the line's musical aspect... and replace Palpitoad and Seismitoad since they look Like That.

Genmo Inkay The Confounding Pokemon Normal Ability: Match Mantle- When the Pokemon is sent out, it copies the Types of whatever Pokemon is in front of it. This only occurs once per battle.

Inkfiltrator The Changeling Pokemon Normal Ability: Match Mantle Evolves from Genmo Inkay if leveled up with high Friendship while in a town or city

In trying to remove the malicious, hypnotic potential of Malamar, JetCo. removed almost everything that makes Inkay Inkay. As a result, it emulates whoever or whatever is nearby. It will focus this emulation on its Trainer if it's treated well, eventually evolving into a human-like form in the hopes of fitting into their society. People who haven't trained Inkfiltrator themselves often find them unsettling.

Genmo Dwebble The Delivery Pokemon Bug/Steel Ability: Sturdy/Shell Armor/(Hidden)Steadfast

Genmo Crustle The Heavy Load Pokemon Bug/Steel Ability: Sturdy/Shell Armor/(Hidden)Steadfast Evolves from Genmo Dwebble at Level 34

JetCo. Breed Dwebble to be much larger than normal, and deliver various cargo all over the region using special artificial shells. Dwebble usually handle written mail and small packages, while Crustle can handle about as big a load as a semi trailer.

This is the one species of Genmo Pokemon that was created before Dr. Splicer's research was released, and in fact well before Team Missile got the research at all, since it's just plain old selective breeding.

Genmo Nidoran The Pin Bun Pokemon Ground Ability: Run Away/Rivalry/(Hidden)Sand Veil

Nidorine The Pin Bun Pokemon Ground Ability: Poison Heal/Rivalry/(Hidden)Sand Veil Evolves from Genmo Nidoran at Level 16

Nidosage The Mastery Pokemon Ground/Fighting Ability: Poison Heal/Justified/(Hidden)Sand Veil Evolves from Nidorine when exposed to a Moon Stone

Less aggressive, no longer venomous, still very pointy.

Genmo Toppit The Tiara Pokemon Ghost/Fairy Ability: Trace/Dazzling/(Hidden)Mind over Matter- Double's the Pokemon's Special Attack

A Toppit inhabiting a magic tiara instead of a beat-up top hat. Instead of possessing the wearer, it grants them Fairy-Type powers.

Mewni The Mockery Pokemon Psychic/Dark Ability: Adaptability/(Hidden)Play My Way- The Pokemon’s Moves ignore all Type Immunities

Mewtwo restyled as a Magical Girl Mascot. A secretly evil Magical Girl Mascot.

Gruesome Pokemon

Gruesome Charmander The Lizard Pokemon Fire/Dark Ability: Hellfire- The Pokemon’s Normal Type Moves become either Fire or Dark Type, depending on what will be more effective

Gruesome Charmeleon The Lizard Pokemon Fire/Dark Ability: Hellfire Evolves from Gruesome Charmander at Level 16

Charcifer The Hellfire Pokemon Fire/Dark Ability: Hellfire Evolves from Gruesome Charmeleon at Level 36

Bigger, tougher, more aggressive versions of Charmander and Charmeleon that become a massive flaming tyrannosaurus rex. Despite the change in demeanor, they're still almost as easy to train as their other variants if you can get your hands on them. In fact, one of Hyper Shining Force's members has a Charcifer as her partner.

(Charcifer's design is heavily based on Devil Dinosaur from Marvel, and the HSF member who has one will probably be based on Lunella/Moon Girl. Because I like them.)

Gruesome Paras The Seabug Pokemon Bug/Water Ability: Vampire- Doubles the power of HP Stealing moves, and the percentage of HP they heal/Dry Skin/(Hidden)Damp

Paracymo The Merbug Pokemon Bug/Water Ability: Vampire/Dry Skin/(Hidden)Damp Evolves from Gruesome Paras if leveled up in a battle against a fish Pokemon

Attempting to free Paras from their mushrooms resulted in a Variant that’s a parasite itself; a Tongue-Eating Louse, specifically.

Gruesome Rattata The Mouse Pokemon Poison Ability: Contagious- Contact with the Pokemon will either Poison the opponent, replace their ability with Contagious, or both/Hustle/(Hidden)Strong Jaw

Gruesome Raticate The Mouse Pokemon Poison Ability: Contagious/Hustle/(Hidden)Strong Jaw Evolves from Gruesome Rattata at Level 20

Verminate The Epidemic Pokemon Poison/Dark Ability: Contagious/Toxic Debris/(Hidden)Strong Jaw Evolves from Gruesome Raticate when leveled up while knowing Toxic

Team Missile straight-up genetically engineered plague rats.

Gruesome Nidoran The Poison Pin Pokemon Poison/Dragon Ability: Poison Point/Anger Point/(Hidden)Moxie

Nidorini The Riot Pokemon Poison/Dragon Ability: Poison Point/Anger Point/(Hidden)Moxie Evolves from Gruesome Nidoran at Level 16

Nidoleon The Anarchy Pokemon Poison/Dragon Ability: Poison Point/Huge Power/(Hidden)Moxie Evolves from Nidorini when exposed to a Moon Stone

While making the Nidoran line Dragon Type does make them stronger and more aggressive, it apparently also stunts their growth. (Yes I gave them a Napoleon Complex)

Gruesome Riolu The Haunted Pokemon Ghost Ability: Cursed Body/Inner Focus/(Hidden)Rattled

Gruesome Lucario The Spectral Pokemon Ghost/Steel Ability: Cursed Body/Inner Focus/(Hidden)Martial Prowess Evolves from Gruesome Riolu when leveled up at Night while knowing Curse

They put ghosts in the puppy and it's straight-up not having a good time.

Amewlgam The Abomination Pokemon Ghost/Electric Ability: Pressure/(Hidden)Manifest- The Pokemon’s Ghost-Type Moves can affect Normal-Type Pokemon

You can see a lot of parallels between Mewtwo and the original book version of Frankenstein's Monster. This one's instead based on the old-school movie monster version.

It also turns out that Team Missile is a splinter group from Team Rocket. And while Giovanni is alright with people quitting (as evidenced by that one guy in Sinnoh, Butch and Cassidy in Journeys, and Jessie, James and Meowth multiple times), what he does not tolerate is traitors, or fools who try to actually straight-up conquer and-or destroy the world (after all, either of those would negatively affect Team Rocket's profit margins), and he's seen evidence that Team Missile may attempt the former in the near future. As such, he's assigned the Trio to lead a team to take down Team Missile's operations... and is putting them through intense training so they'll be competent enough to actually properly lead said team.
