Description

I had the sudden urge to make my own Pokemon. I mulled over what to base it off of, and what came to mind was one of Planet Earth's mightiest predators: Carcharodon megalodon(AKA:Mega Shark, Mega Jaws, Megalodon, and Meg, among other things)

The name was thought up by ReaperNeku at Serebii.net
Megaleapth (Pronounced "Mega-lee-pth") is a combination of the words Megalodon and Depth Charge


I based this guy off of Sharpedo(the Gills and Coloration) Garchomp(The eyes), Gible(The mouth), and Gabite(The Dorsal Fin) Also based off the Real animal as well.

Decided to make it a Sharpedo Evo because of its way too similar resemblance to Sharpedo.
I think that, just as with Sharpedo, the Dark type suits this beast as its secondary type.

The stats(Length(based off of Height) and Weight) are toned down a bit form Wailord's (Megalodon was a monster, after all, just not as big as some Baleen whales, like the ones Wailord's based off of)

Pokedex number is random.
Trainer silhouette included for size comparison
It's a silhouette version of this [link]

"Ancient Trench" is just a random location I made up, referring to the Mariana Trench, where some people think Megalodon may still live today (but it's likely a bunch of bologna)




Type indicators came from [link]

Pokeball Brush came from [link]

everything else was done in GIMP 2.6

AWESOME, simply awesome.

This makes so much sense and it's a shame that Sharpedo didn't end up getting this and just got some Mega Evolution that doesn't look nearly as epic
