  • Our "Weird and Wonderful" one-shot contest is now underway! Pokémon are strange and magical creatures, and for our writing contest this year, we want to see you higlight some of their oddest abilities and features! From stories about luxray thieves using X-ray vision to scope out targets to those about trainers bewitching opponents with their stantlers' mystic antlers, any sort of fic featuring a pokémon's unusual lore is welcome! Entries are due at 11:59 PM July 13th UTC.

They still have to reach 60 points to win, so let's continue the game.

Here's the next one:

The skin on its face is impervious to attack, but breathing difficulties made this Pokémon go extinct anyway.

Shieldon is incorrect--you are on the right track that it is a fossil Pokemon.
