Hihidaruma has an alternate forme. It's Fire/Psychic. There's a fanart on Pokexperto's Twitter. It's blue... And weird. Haha

Darumaka is number 554 and Hihidaruma is 555

Why would they give an alternate form to such an obscure Pokémon?

Why so much alternate forms? Me dont likez.
And I guess Fighting type legend is cool, since we had no legend of that type, but now four. o.o
I hope Water/Fighting is a lie.
It would be a lot better if there was some split evos. Much more interesting.

I dunno but it does explain the change in appearance #648 makes when it alternates formes. It's Psychic Forme looks feminine while it's Fighting-Forme takes uo a more masculine appearance. I like the Alternate Formes but Hihidaruma is... a twist 0_0.

According to the same source, Mamepato's final evolution and Basurao apparently have alternate forms as well. The latter is as obscure a confirmed pokemon as we get.

I was going to say that myself. There seem to be many alternate forms this time. I also fully agree on the split evos.

And Hihidaruma's alternate form is, well ... odd, to say the least.

I predict that one day the trend of 100+ new Pokemon each generation will stop, and instead switch to new formes or old Pokemon with a new twist. I'd say this will happen once the Pokedex reaches 1000.

Pure flying type? How does that work?
Wouldn't Roost and Gravity make them ??? type? Weird.
EDIT: Could become normal type. That would make some sort of sense.

At least we might finally get some fighting type legendaries.

Gravity doesn't remove the Flying type, just the immunity to Ground. And there's no reason it would have to learn Roost at all.

THEN the Digimon-haters/criticizers will cross the line.

Yeah, I'm not sure I'm liking all these alternate forms... Pokémon like Unown, Wormadam, and Shikijika are supposed to be unique Pokémon, now it's just becoming a pointless gimmick they're slapping on Pokémon that don't need it. And I don't get Hihi's alternate form. Why is it blue, why is it part Psychic, and why does it look more like Darumakka than Hihidaruma. Maybe it was a typo and they BOTH have alternate forms? I just don't see how that's supposed to be a Hihidaruma.

I don't know about that. The point of a new generation are new Pokémon. But I do think future generations likely won't have as many Pokémon as this one does.

Why is there so many alternate forms after all?
Maybe they are not real after all.
So far we have these alternate forms:
Castform
Cherrim
Rotom
Giratina
Shaymin
And now there's like
assdaf
Shikijika + evo
Mamepato final evo
New legend
Hihidaruma
Basurao

seriously, wtf

That's the point of a new generation NOW, but eventually the number of Pokemon will be too overwhelming.

Ghost/Fire is easy

Haunted Candle
Haunted Lantern
A "Poe" holding a lantern
A Will-o-wisp Pokemon
Or a jack-o-lantern. Please Gamefreak? Also, double you tee eff, Hihidaruma is getting an alternate form? Just say NO kids.

What's the big deal with Hihidaruma having an alternate forme? It's not that bad.. It creates more type combinations without wasting spaces.. :/
