Well let's use a more uncommon way of exploding? How about the inside of the cannon is coated with a lining of potassium and carablast excretes nitric acid on it? I just don't like predictability.

Nitroglycerin?! I you sure that is such a good thing to stick into a pokemon? It's a very unstable chemical that explodes on the slightest amount of shock, and it is only safe in extremely low temperatures. So let's think about this. Carablast is in a battle with another pokemon, a simple rattata. What prevents the volatile nitroglycrin from exploding when the rattata just simply tackles it? That shock alone could have catastrophic results, especially when you consider how much this pokemon could have stored within itself.

I suggest some other substance should be contained, or better not have it at all. There are many similar pokemon already why do you need Carablast to do that?

Good point. Maybe we should take Carablast's concept somewhere else. Feel free to suggest something, we'll need two lines of dex info anyways.

Perhaps something involving mixing a type of acid and a kind of base? I read somewhere that the two combined caused an explosion.

Only super-strong acids and bases react explosively. So maybe caustic soda against nitric acid would cause such effects, also providing a useful explanation for Carablast surviving in desert conditions, as the by-products of a base and acid neutralising each other are: salt and water. Then again, we could also keep with my nitric acid vs potassium idea as, apart fro being an explosive reaction, the by-products would be salt and hydrogen, which is of course an extremely flammabe gas. Reacting an acid in any other way would be against metal carbonates, which are also bases. That means explosive reaction, ordinary by-products and carbon dioxide. The only problem is that carbon dioxide would of course douse the explosion and all other fiery effects. I'll leave this up to y'all.

Maybe that's a bit TOO scientific...how about just saying "It mixes two chemicals....", It'll be much simpler.

OK as Carablast is based on the Bombardier beetle, I'l present the information and y'all can fiddle around with it:
Carablast uses voltaile chemicals to produce explosions. The by-products of this reaction are salt and water, which it uses to survive in it's desert home.

All right, that sounds very good! Transferring that to the (probably) fitting dex info for D/P:

It mixes the two highly volatile chemicals in its tail to produce explosive fires all around.

The by-products of its mixed chemicals are salt and water, which it uses to survive in the desert.

A worm isn't exactly an insect, actually I have each one of their appearances finalized. But I have an unstoppable force preventing me from scanning; laziness. (Three cheers for Slaking!)

This occurs to me as resembling a...well frankly, it doesn't look like anything. But its tail seem similar enough to Koffing, so maybe it can release poisonous gases and use it as a club...More poison can come from its arms...The idea of releasing poison is reminscent of some species of stick-insect, Phasmids. So let's say we call him, Phasmitox(Phasmid+Toxic)?
Classification: Maybe...Haze Release.

Pokeaddict, on which creature did you base this evo? We might be able to use it for its name ^-^

In which case, Phasmitox is as good a name as any.
But, I'm not the boss, or the creator, so everbody else is free to suggest names.
