I may sound crazy that I want a Fan-Made Pokémon in the new games that you are currently developing, but hear me out and you may agree with me.

First of all, it will be the first time a Pokémon that has been created by the fans and would help build a stronger relationship between the Pokémon company and its fans, especially if it is the 20th anniversary coming up, so wouldn't it be a good idea to make a fan's interpretation of a Pokémon into the game?

Second up it will strengthen the bond between The Pokémon Company and Smogon University (the people who run the singles metagame), I honestly am not someone who works with Smogon or helps around with their online Pokémon Battle Simulator: Pokémon Showdown (by which time you might have heard about and may be dodgy about this because I bring them up), I am just a single fan of the Pokémon community who just fell in love with this Pokémon’s design. Smogon runs this project (that isn't Showdown) called CAP (short for Create a Pokémon), where they create Pokémon based on simple competitive concepts. Crucibelle was a one out of the (so far) 21 Pokémon that came out of this products and is so far the only one to come out with a Mega Evolution (of which should be its actual form with its regular form being its pre-evolution). Based on its stats and type: Rock/Poison, Hp:106/Attack: 105/Defence: 65/Special Attack:75/Special Defence: 85/Speed: 104, it is obviously meant to be a frail sweeper with tricks up it's sleeve. I know that when deciding on a Pokémon's stats you often see what's popular on tournaments and when it comes to fan made Pokémon you are cautious about having the stats too OP, Crucibelle is 4X weak to Ground and doesn't hit as hard compared to Weavile. So I don't see why there is a reason why you should not include this fan made Pokémon due to fearing how OP it could become and that it was created from a company that is completely opposite to your company and I think you can easily help balance the Pokémon Metagame with the help of Smogon if you manage to befriend them as a small sister company that runs Pokémon in the E-Sports side of things for Single Battles.

Third up, it has a cool design. Popular Pokémon that are fan-favourite within the community often have something going for them, and most of the time it is because it has a design that many people like, hence why Garboder was panned. With Crucibelle, though falling into the reason why Garboder was panned with it being based on an inanimate object (also why it's mega should be its standard form), something just resonates with it that makes it looks appealing and can make the community accept it as one, IF IT IS A PRE-EVOLUTION, if I haven't made this clear already, it's regular form looks too pre-evolution like, the only thing I would change about it is making it Mega it's actual form and use its current non-mega form its pre-evolution and call it whatever you want. Honestly I would make it evolve at Level 41 but that is just me. Sorry if I'm fangirling over the Mega, but it is just the better design.

And finally, it would be your first piece of fan submitted content that made it into the games Since 2007 in Pokémon Diamond and Perl, and that was the name for the move Draco Meteor. I do know that a Fan made Pokémon did make its way into official Pokémon content, and that was a small manga that only ran in Japan and via technicality was only official for a day. The ambition here is to make Crucibelle an official Pokémon with a trademark under the Pokémon Company and one that fans will love. Also, 20 years, lighten up will you this is the community's biggest moment: The big 2-0! This is the perfect time to have a fan-made Pokémon into the games! Just please! If this doesn't make you add Crucibelle, then Arceus knows what would!
