Designing and RE-Designing
Crater allows trainers to keep the "CANON" pokemon designs IF they keep the canon typing.
In Crater "Canon" Is referred to as "Ancestor Typing" because of the Lore in Crater, the Ancestor Typing has fizzled out and been replaced by "Type Changes"
This RARE typing can however be obtained via
Caught in the Wild
Item "Ancestor DNA" Obtained via a Research Task
Events, Boxes etc.
the CHOICE of keeping it for your imports.
When a trainer KEEPS the canon typing they may KEEP the canon DESIGN
OR design the pokemon to look more like the typing.
Example: Pipa is a Ancestor Nidoran when it comes to type and design.
HOWEVER The trainer can CHOOSE to redesign Pipa in this way. Notice how her design fit's the typing more with a purple color scheme, dripping ear tips, bigger spikes and small barbs on the back of legs.
Heres some helpful info when designing your pokemon to fit it's typing.
