Sneasel and Weavile Biology
Range and Habitat
Sneasel and Weavile are native to subarctic, mountainous, and some temperate areas in the Northern Hemisphere south of the flat Arctic tundra, including the Johto, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Galar, Paldea, and Kitakami regions; with an introduced population in Alola. They mainly inhabit coniferous forests and rocky alpine zones, wherever they have sufficient cover for hunting.
Historically, a Fighting/Poison form of Sneasel which evolved into Sneasler was found in the Sinnoh region, which was then known as Hisui. This population is believed to have gone extinct sometime over the past two centuries, with Sinnoh’s current population of Sneasel and Weavile from the standard stock having been reintroduced.
Social Behavior
Sneasel and Weavile live together in large clans that contain many breeding pairs. In the Johto region, these clans only consist of Sneasel, as no wild Weavile have been found there. Clans in other regions are led by a single Weavile, which is usually male, but sometimes female. Weavile battle one another for the position of leader if a newcomer decides to challenge the current one, or when the previous leader dies. Weavile use a system of over 500 signs made by their claws on trees, rocks, and ice to communicate with one another. Four or five Weavile will go out hunting for large prey while other clan members stay behind to protect young Sneasel. Members of the evolutionary line mark their territories using urine, scent glands in their faces and paws, as well as claw marks. Occasionally, violent territorial battles between neighboring clans occur.
Hisuian Sneasel and Sneasler were solitary, unlike their standard counterparts from other regions.
Reproduction and Life History
While Sneasel can breed, they often do not until evolving into Weavile, except in the Johto region where Weavile have not been found in the wild. Both evolutionary stages mate for life, generally with another individual of the same stage. Breeding takes place year-round. Sneasel or Weavile pairs dig a den in which the mother gives birth to up to four kittens after a roughly three-month gestation, and remains with them until they are able to venture out. During this time, she hunts for herself near the den, or her mate and other clan members bring prey to her.
Newborn Sneasel kittens are fully furred, but lack teeth, are largely immobile, their eyes are closed, and they cannot regulate their own body temperature. While they are still in the den, their only food source is their mother’s milk. Their eyes open between the age of one to two weeks, but their eyesight is still not fully developed. Their mobility begins to develop a few days after their eyes open. Once they are able to walk and their first set of teeth begins erupting, they leave the den, join other young of a similar age, and are cared for by all clan members. At the age of two months, they begin to eat meat and Eggs, and are fully weaned by the age of six months. When they are 10 months old, they have their permanent teeth and are almost at full size. Sneasel kittens are dependent on their parents and other clan members for a full two years as they learn to hunt, so parents do not breed again until their newest offspring have achieved independence. Eventually, Sneasel disperse from their natal clan to join another or form a new one, sometimes accompanied by their younger siblings.
Because Hisuian Sneasel and Sneasler were solitary, it is thought that only the mothers cared for their young except in rare cases, and hunted close to the den site themselves.
Longevity
Sneasel and Weavile may live to be 40 years old in the wild. Common causes of death include old age, conflicts with conspecifics, and persecution by Pokémon Breeders for eating Eggs of other species.
Feeding Behavior
Sneasel and Weavile are primarily carnivorous, and hunt prey alone; in pairs; or in packs of up to five. They prefer to hunt at night, when their black fur allows them to blend in with their surroundings, and most prey cannot easily see them. Sneasel are only capable of catching small prey up to their own size, while Weavile frequently team up to bring down prey large enough to share with other clan members. In their native range, Sneasel and Weavile hunt a great variety of mammal and bird Pokémon. Prey species for Sneasel include Pidgey, Rattata, Spearow, Sentret, Natu, Mareep, Murkrow, Delibird, Taillow, Zigzagoon, Swablu, Starly, Bidoof, Buneary, Patrat, Pidove, Minccino, Cinccino, Deerling, Bunnelby, Fletchling, Skwovet, Rookidee, Nickit, Wooloo, Lechonk, and Flittle. Either alone or in pairs, Weavile hunt Pidgeotto, Pidgeot, Raticate, Galarian Ponyta (but avoid Galarian Rapidash due to its type advantage), Furret, Mareep, Flaaffy, Teddiursa, Zigzagoon, Altaria, Staravia, Bibarel, Watchog, Tranquill, Unfezant, Deerling, Diggersby, Skiddo, Greedent, Corvisquire, Nickit, Wooloo, Lechonk, and Bombirdier. Packs of Weavile work closely to hunt Tauros (except all three Paldean Tauros forms, due to their compound type advantage), Piloswine,  Stantler, Mamoswine, Sawsbuck, Bouffalant, Gogoat, Dubwool, Oinkologne, and Espathra. The introduced Alolan population of Sneasel and Weavile primarily hunts Alolan Vulpix and Alolan Sandshrew, but also Alolan Rattata/Raticate and Tauros. Sneasel and Weavile cache uneaten prey for the following days, especially in winter or on mountains that have snow year-round, as the freezing temperatures preserve it.
When hunting small to medium-sized prey, Sneasel and Weavile ambush it while running at full speed, grabbing it with their claws and then ripping open its throat or body. Packs of Weavile use their scribed signs to coordinate their attack when the group leader has spotted large prey. They remain out of the prey’s sight until they are all within striking distance, then run towards it at full speed and inflict deep slashing wounds. The lead Weavile will follow up with an attack to the throat if the initial onslaught doesn’t kill the prey within a minute. Weavile hunt Alolan Sandshrew in pairs, as one of them is needed to expose its soft underbelly. Hisuian Sneasel and Sneasler hunted alone, using the venom in their claws to subdue prey. The evolutionary line feeds by biting off small chunks of their prey, although Weavile break down prey into smaller portions using their claws while sharing with others.
In addition, Sneasel love to eat the Eggs of other Pokémon such as Pidgey whenever they are available. Pairs of Sneasel work together to distract the parents and steal the Eggs, but then fight over which one gets to eat them. Sneasel and Weavile also occasionally eat Berries.
Predators
A lone Sneasel, especially a young one, may occasionally become prey for larger predators such as Arcanine, Houndour, Houndoom, Mightyena, Luxray, Pyroar, Lycanroc, or Mabostiff. Weavile are apex predators and no other Pokémon are currently known to hunt them, but the greatest danger to them is Weavile from other clans.
Ecosystem Roles
Sneasel and Weavile are important for regulating prey populations, as their diet is made up of a great variety of mammals and birds. Other Pokémon often steal their caches, which is especially beneficial to those that are not as successful at catching their own prey.

Introduction
Riolu and Lucario are exceptionally rare Pokémon that are much sought after by Trainers. Riolu are pure Fighting type, while Lucario are Fighting/Steel type. 87.5% of Riolu and Lucario are male, similar to all starter Pokémon except for Pikachu.
Riolu are highly energetic Pokémon that are said to be able to cross mountains and canyons all night long, despite their small size. Thus, they needs very good amounts of exercise outdoors, and are best suited for Trainers who are able to keep up with them on a hike. They use auras to communicate, and to determine how others are feeling, but do not yet have the ability to use auras in battle like their evolved form. This species is considered a baby Pokémon, meaning that it cannot breed until it evolves.
Lucario are known for being extremely loyal to and forming close bonds with their Trainers, and for their useful moveset. They have a stoic and prideful personality, but also a strong sense of justice and are highly protective of their companions. With their ability to sense auras, they can detect the feelings of others from over half a mile away, and also utilize moves such as Aura Sphere. While they are somewhat easier to care for than many fully evolved Pokémon of similar strength, Lucario still need plenty of exercise just like their pre-evolution, making them a good fit for active Trainers. Lucario can Mega Evolve if they are holding a Lucarionite.
In Kalos, Lucario is believed to have been the first Mega Evolution discovered, and there is a large statue of Mega Lucario in the Tower of Mastery. Lucario is one of the most popular of all Pokémon, and is commonly featured on TV and in merchandise.
Pros and Cons of Lucario
Pros
Has very high Attack and Special Attack stats
Highly intelligent
Not clingy to people
Can Mega Evolve
Resistant against 8 types (Dark, Steel, Ice, Grass, Bug, Normal, Dragon, Rock), and immune to Poison
Great for Trainers who spend a lot of the day outdoors
Cons
Difficult to evolve from Riolu
Slow to level up
Needs lots of exercise and enrichment
Important Considerations for Owning Riolu and Lucario
Providing enough exercise and mental stimulation: Riolu and Lucario are incredibly intelligent and active Pokémon that need a good outlet for their energy daily, as well as behavioral enrichment.
Difficult evolution: Riolu only evolves into Lucario when leveled up with high friendship during the day.
Care
Riolu and Lucario are omnivores, but most of their natural diet is meat. For both of them, their regular food should be supplemented with some fruits and vegetables, and raw meat such as Tauros or Unfezant meat at least a few times a week. Riolu eats about 1.3 pounds of food per day, and Lucario eats about 3.6 pounds.
To meet Riolu and Lucario’s exercise needs, they should ideally be outdoors most of the time, and taken on daily hikes. For behavioral enrichment, punching bags or large cardboard boxes can be used as targets for these Pokémon to practice their moves on. Recall training is also an excellent form of enrichment for any Pokémon. Use a whistle or call the Pokémon’s name, and have treats or a toy ready so that the Pokémon is motivated to come to you. When using this for play, do it while hiding out of view of your Pokémon so that it has to find you, like hide-and-seek. Riolu and Lucario are naturally independent, so recall training with them takes patience, but can be done if there is enough motivation.
Pokédex Entries
Riolu
“The aura that emanates from its body intensifies to alert others if it is afraid or sad.”
“Its body is little yet powerful. It can crest three mountains and cross two canyons in one night.”
“It has the peculiar power of being able to see emotions such as joy and rage in the form of waves.”
“They communicate with one another using their auras. They are able to run all through the night.”
“It uses the shapes of auras, which change according to emotion, to communicate with others.”
“It can discern the physical and emotional states of people, Pokémon, and other natural things from the shape of their aura waves.”
“It's tough enough to run right through the night, and it's also a hard worker, but it's still just a youngster.”
“It knows how people and Pokémon feel by looking at their auras. It doesn't approach dangerous opponents.”
“It uses waves called auras to communicate with others of its kind. It doesn't make any noise during this time, so its enemies can't detect it.”
“It's exceedingly energetic, with enough stamina to keep running all through the night. Taking it for walks can be a challenging experience.”
“It can use waves called auras to gauge how others are feeling. These same waves can also tell this Pokémon about the state of the environment.”
"Though infantile in appearance, it has the mysterious ability to read the minds of humans. The pure of heart are met with Riolu's approval, while those of ill nature earn only its loathing."
Lucario
“It has the ability to sense the Auras of all things. It understands human speech.”
“By catching the Aura emanating from others, it can read their thoughts and movements.”
“A well-trained one can sense auras to identify and take in the feelings of creatures over half a mile away.”
“It's said that no foe can remain invisible to Lucario, since it can detect Auras. Even foes it could not otherwise see.”
“By reading the aura of all things, it can tell how others are feeling from over half a mile away.”
“Not only does it perceive auras, but it has also gained the power to control them. It employs them in battle.”
“They can detect the species of a living being—and its emotions—from over half a mile away. They control auras and hunt their prey in packs.”
“It concentrates its mental energy and fires off mysterious waves called auras, which can crush boulders of large size to dust.”
“Lucario reads its opponent's feelings with its aura waves. It finds out things it would rather not know, so it gets stressed out easily.”
“It controls waves known as auras, which are powerful enough to pulverize huge rocks. It uses these waves to take down its prey.”
“It can tell what people are thinking. Only Trainers who have justice in their hearts can earn this Pokémon's trust.”
"A most gallant-looking creature. It emits energy waves and controls them with precision, using them to sense even faraway beings. I have given the name “aura” to this power."
Mega Lucario
“Black streaks all over its body show where its auras and the energy of Mega Evolution intermingled and raced through it.”
“It readies itself to face its enemies by focusing its mental energies. Its fighting style can be summed up in a single word: heartless.”
“Its aura has expanded due to Mega Evolution. Governed only by its combative instincts, it strikes enemies without mercy.”
“Bathed in explosive energy, its combative instincts have awakened. For its enemies, it has no mercy whatsoever.”

RIP POKEPETS MOD 2023-2023
earlier this year, i was working on a functional pokemon mod! and i got pretty far, but then my health declined and then EA released babies and also now horses. so it's safe to say the tuning is screwed up now, but there's no reason to keep the actual pokemon i converted for the project hidden away
some are considerably more cursed than others. you've been warned
REQUIRES cats & dogs EP (duh)
mesh conversions from scarlet & violet, all have moving jaws and eyelids!
2 swatches for each mon (normal and shiny), disabled for random
mesh edits + retextures are cool but credit is appreciated! do not put these behind paywalls
DL : SFS (no ads, as always)
