I was going to question why there are 4th stage evolutions. Then I read the name. Will this only be giving 3 stage lines a fourth, or will it be like The Complete Pokédex Project with giving all mons in the game a 4 stage line?Decided to make demonstrations (not actual submissions) for my upcoming Pet Mod, Fourth Frontier. This allows to show how to make a good submission and help prepare my further once Gen 8 Pet Mods become permitted. Custom Moves/Abilities aren't given for Electivire's Fourth Frontier Evo, Electiviral.
> Evolved by level up when holding Life Orb. The Life Orb isn't consumed upon Evolution.
Pre-Evolution: Electivire
Pokémon Name: Electiviral (Electric + Viral)
Type:
Abilities: Motor Drive (A1), Sheer Force (HA)
Stats: 80 (+5) / 133 (+10) / 77 (+10) / 85 (-10) / 90 (+5) / 105 (+10) | BST: 570
New Moves: Bulk Up, Swords Dance, Drain Punch, Iron Head, Zen Headbutt
Height and Weight: 2.1 m, 174.8 kg
Description: Electiviral's fur is a bit less prominent after evolving from Electivire, but the tuft of it head when it was an Electabuzz had sprouted back, with a bit more numerous spikes and the tallest one have a red tip. The wire-like tails are also larger and the tip sprouts two extra plug-shaped spikes as well.
Competitive Uses: With Sheer Force and access to Bulk Up or Swords Dance, Electiviral become a serious Electric-type wallbreaker, with a slightly higher than average Speed allowing to be a sweeper as well. Although most of its Physical moves aren't particularly powerful, Sheer Force can power-up the likes of Elemental Punches, Iron Head, Rock Slide and Zen Headbutt, thus giving their power to a more affordable level. This will put severe pressure on multiple Pokemon weak to Electric-type, especially the likes of Toxapex and Skarmory, and with Ice Punch and higher-than-average Speed, Zapdos and Landorus-T should not risk a switch-in.
Is It Overpowered?: The reason it wouldn't be is because its Physical bulk remains weak, which means Earthquake remains big trouble, as well as very unlikely to survive from neutral powerful physical attacks from boosted threats. 105 Speed alone isn't all that impressive and Choice Scarf users or naturally faster threats like Greninja, or especially Mega Swampert when the rain weather is active, can easily take it down once Electiviral is worn down. Burn, Intimidate (unless if setting up beforehand) and Toxic can give it hard time as well.
It also face competition with Tapu Koko, who can set up a free Electric Terrain thanks to Electric Surge and is much faster as well, although Electiviral do compensate with a naturally stronger Attack, bigger coverage, able to Set-Up and have Sheer Force.
And here's a demonstration with Custom Elements.
> Evolved after defeating three Pokemon with any Ghost-type moves.
Pre-Evolution: Dusknoir
Pokémon Name: Duskreap (Dusk + Creep + Reaper)
Type:
Abilities: Pressure (A1), Reaper (HA)
Stats: 65 (+20) / 115 (+15) / 135 / 55 (-10) / 135 / 50 (+5) | BST: 555
New Moves: Swords Dance, Knock Off, Slash, Shadow Claw, Sucker Punch, Shadow Scythe, Poison Jab
Custom Elements: Reaper (Ability, clone of Scrappy; enables Ghost-type moves to hit Normal-type Pokemon), Shadow Scythe (Ghost-type clone of Leech Life; Physical)
Height + Weight: 2.5 m, 154.6 kg
Description: Upon evolution, Duskreap develop two scythers, one of each arm, and the belly-mouth is perperually opened. The head is significantly changed into a red and blue eldritch eye, with the top of its head turns into a sharply toothy mouth. The tail is splitted into a long robe, like a reaper's traditional clothing. The other "eyes" of its body turns into the same colors of the main eldritch eye.
Competitive Uses: It can either play as a PP Stall, thanks to slightly improved HP allowing abuse of Pain Split, or a bulky attacker with Shadow Scyther that allows it to recover HP. Swords Dance can be used to wallbreak or, in a Trick Room team, to sweep, and this can stack well with Shadow Sneak and/or Sucker Punch for revenge killing. Improved Attack means that Duskreap can abuse the aforementioned attacks and Pursuit much better. Reaper can be used for offensive Duskreap to hit Normal-type with Shadow Sneak and Shadow Scythe. Having only one weakness means that it cannot be pressured very easily other than Fairy-type.
It also retained Dusknoir's access for Ice Punch, Fire Punch, Earthquake and Thunder Punch, making it difficult what coverage it will run.
Is It Overpowered?: Duskreap is still slower than many OU threats and speed ties with Chansey, meaning that it can be easily revenge killed outside of Trick Room, unless if the supposed revenge killer is easily damaged enough for Duskreap to finish it off with either Shadow Sneak or Sucker Punch, both of which can be stopped by Psychic Terrain. Its base Attack of 115 isn't all that powerful, and none of its Moves are particularly powerful, which means a few Physical Walls like Skarmory can wall it unless Duskreap had setted up like crazy with Swords Dance, although they cannot wall a defensive Duskreap with Rest.
Pokemon with Scrappy such as Mega Lopunny can also threaten Duskreap with Fighting-type moves. Tapu Koko and Tapu Lele can greatly threaten Duskreap with their Fairy-type STABs, but Tapu Lele should not switch into any of its Ghost-type moves except for Shadow Sneak, and neither wants to get hit by Poison Jab, especially if Duskreap have set-up beforehand. Mimikyu with Disguise active can outlast Duskreap by setting up Swords Dance and then use Play Rough, but can be hindered if Burned. Burn and Intimidate can also hamper an offensive Duskreap, but otherwise doesn't do much on a defensive Duskreap.
Its moreso giving an evolution for 3 stage lines that either have BST lower than 500, and also 3 stage lines where the final evo is unranked. The post earlier is only a demostration about how to submit in this Pet Mod idea. The link below will explain better about my Pet Mod idea in question.
Odd coincidence, I also have an idea of a generation involving Australian animals which I wait until Gen 8 is released, although I will not post the whole generation in Smogon.
Great minds think alike ;) I was gonna originally have it be based on nothing, just a random made up island or something, however the first guy who ever gave me a suggestion said it'd be cool if Austrailia was the base. And the rest is history
I suggest you take a look at this video for inspiration. Good luck!
Its doable, but types, stats, abilities and moves would have to be speculated (which is fine)

Yeah both of them are correct.
At least a third of all existing mods already have this kind of premise, so unfortunately I don't think this idea would get accepted. Try to lurk a little bit more on the subforum to learn about pre-existing mods, and maybe that will help you find a more unique idea! :D
Yeah, im not surprised. Lol It was worth a shot, though.
...oof. Well, if my experiences on CAP are any indication, I can't even breathe on this website without pissing someone off, and Woggins suggested on Discord that I need to earn my way back to CAP with "valuable contributions", so I've got nothing to lose at this point... here are my suggestions for a Pet Mod about tweaking existing moves and Abilities. This doesn't have to be a Pet Mod in and of itself — if any similar Pet Mods have been proposed, I'd be happy to add my ideas on to that.
In addition to the change to Triple Kick I mentioned earlier (boost each hit's base power by 10 so it isn't a worse Double Kick), I have a few other ideas for buffing moves and abilities in simple ways. Let's start with the abilities.
Why would I ever use Lucky Punch when I could use Stick?So one day, I discovered the Indigo Meta. It was a very compelling idea for sure: Actually competitively viable RBY? Sounds like a jam! Upon thinking about it further, I wondered if something similar could be done for the other broken generation...
