Teddiursa: A Deep Dive into Pokemon’s Most Important Bear | HackerNoon

Pokemon Gold & Silver

version exclusives suffered from being as underutilized and underpowered as the bear Pokemon Teddiursa — just look at Gligar, Delibird, Mantine, and Phanpy/Donphan. All of these Pokemon have poor stats, and like most version exclusives, none have third evolutions . Gligar did receive a slight boost with its gen IV evolution, Gliscor, but even considering that, the Pokemon just doesn’t live up to other comparable ground and/or flying types., even though other bear Pokemon are.

With how rodentlike Honoguma’s beta sprite is, the link between it and the true Gen II starter reveals itself. Instead of the bear Pokemon, we received Cyndaquil, known as the “Fire mouse Pokemon” throughout the franchise. Notably, Cyndaquil’s mousiness derives from different features than Honoguma’s . Cyndaquil has a long snout, closed eyes, and two small nostrils — almost the exact opposite of Honoguma.

If the Pokemon Company was worried a bear Pokemon would compete too much with its mouse Pokemon, the decision seems clear. Instead of compromising with Honoguma to create a hybrid mouse-bear, the team could scrap the bear sprite altogether and showcase the Fire mouse Pokemon, leaving the remnants for what would later become Teddiursa.

The Teddiursa we have today is a potential Pokemon icon stripped of its elemental charm. Even today it has maintained its normal typing, and though it boasts a large moveset , it doesn’t have that elemental advantage other Pokemon have. With its weaker stats and uninspiring evolution, Teddiursa just doesn’t live up to the competition, even if it’s cute.right around the corner, new Pokemon rumors are everywhere.
