Ah, the ever-present name dilemma. Allow me to dig up some ideas while I dig onto my breakfast.

Words related to electricity we could use:
Conductor. Insulator. Circuit. Battery. Magnet. Volt. Watt. Wire. Motor. Charge. Static. Shock. Grid. Generator. Electrode(okay, maybe not, for obvious reasons *grin*). Coil.

Names related to the shocking stuff: William Gilbert, Otto Von Guericke, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison, Michael Faraday, Samuel Morse, Count Alessandro Volta, Benjamin Franklin.

Terms for a group of foxes: skulk, troop, earth.

Terms related to general vulpine awesomeness:
Fox, kit, reynard, vixen, canidae, vulpini, fennec.

So, I guess we want to decide just what kind of fox(other than dangerously electric) we are dealing with here - just saying "generic fox" veers dangerously close to Electrike/Manectric if you ask me. See this for reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fox

When we have that, I think some mismash of appropriate words gets us a good, proper, makes-sense-but-does-not-make-sense, good ol' Pokémon name(s).

---

Other than the whole deal with the name, I think I like the idea. (Me, like foxes? Whatever gave you that idea?)

I could draw a reference-arty thing when we have an idea just what species of fox we want to base this on. (Personally, fennecs and gray foxes are cool.) And whether or not we are dealing with an evolving creature here.

When life gives you lemons, you steal the sugar and put it on salt shakers.

Right?

I was thinking a Silver fox, and thank you so much for your offer.

And Bgreymon, you're right about the Stage 1 thing, just had a cloudy mind from being sick.

Okay so, I'll be finished up the final touches on this for now, and start adding in the Evolution line.
It'll be just Kitark --> Shocyonite, if anyone thinks there should be a stage 2, let me know.

Thank you all for your valued input so far!

I'm not sure about the third stage. While I love training and evolving three-stagers, it's not fit for anymon.

If anything, I'd go for something like them Nidoroyals: the first evolution happens relatively early, the first form would be "intentionally" weak, and the Moon Stone(I can hope, can I not?) evolution would be kind of a "choice." Meaning that the second form learns a lot of interesting and new moves in later levels, but if you use the stone early, you gain a very powerful pokemon with powerful moves early on (Nidoking/queen at level 20-something tossing Trashes, Superpowers and Earthquakes is a scary thing). Although, since this critter is a dual-type already, the evolution would also have to bring something other new to the board.

Although, two forms is certainly good as well. I don't even have to go out of the vulpine family to know that. (Vulpix <3)

Right?

A Fennec fox would be a first.

Maybe we could make those huge ears a part of its electricity production, like what they did with Emolga and its electrified membranes.

EDIT:
Inolike the name Shocyonite. Names made up of too many words tend to be hard on the tongue, and you usually can't get what the name is referring to. IMO usually two words are the best; bonus points if it coincidentally invokes a third, related term.

Hmm... Well, a Fennec cub could be it's basic (Basically, Kitark.)

But, I've been working on a new evolution chain, take a look.

Kitark

With Dusk Stone With Dawn Stone

Shocyonite Urolyte

Urolyte was something I was thinking about when I had the original idea for Shox (Kitark), it was supposed to be it's original evolution. But what I was thinking, since it became a dark type, was that when it were exposed to the rising sun (Ergo, dawn.) at the time of it's evolution, it'd take on a new form, making it an Electric/Light type.

But then I saw the Stone comments, so I thought: 'Instead of the time of day, I'll just make it a Stone. Flawless. |3'

Whaddya think?

Dawn Stones are exclusively accompanied by a certain gender- and they don't have a "counterpart". It's either Moon and Sun Stones or Dusk and Dawn Stones. Since I don't think either of the evos are related to the sun or moon, you should choose Dusk and Dawn.

Sounds good - I'll make that change now.
Which reminds me, if I'm recommending Kitark's Evolutions, do I have to make that direct topic, or can I link it to this?

I personally think that this suggestion should stay basic. Everything is getting alt evos, split lines, and light-dark counterparts. We should stick to the classics and keep it simple.

I agree with Therislash in this matter. A simple two or three stage chain should suffice.

Ahaha, I love this idea. We see Fire foxes all the time, but electric is great.
I also think that it would work well as a simple 2-stage. I agree with Cacapulse that Shocyonic is way too rough, but Kitark is great. Other than that, why not just something with vulpine and volt? Volpine is obscure enough, I think. It also sounds like Kitark, at least in tone.
Welcome to PF, and good job.

While I was searching through the PF moves, I noticed a specific electric move titled Taser Claw that says "A slash with an electroshock claw", perfect for this evolution family.
EDIT: I take no offense to the bad name as I have mentioned in my Cybevertix post, I was bad at names, but do occasionally get a good name, so forget about the Shocyonite idea. However, Cyonite (uroCYON + NITE, a play on night) could work, or even Fennark (FENNec + spARK/ dARK), if it was going to stay as a fennec fox.

Zoroark and Ninetales have a different origin to Fennark. Zoroark and Ninetales are based on the kitsune (an intelligent fox with magical powers), while Fennark is based on a Fennec fox.

Wow, I never thought about how loosely based it's off Zoroark. If only I owned one for reference. :s

Of course I was just talking about the name and species similarity besides the fact no one had mentioned it

(Original Topic Deleted.)

Alright so, if that's everything, I believe I've finished with this Pokemon - It's not going to go anywhere else.
May I ask for an admin to lock this all up?
