[Hint] Pocket Monsters

The puzzle Pocket Monsters has been out for a week now. I knew it was a bit time-consuming, but it has proven difficult as well. Check out the hint below if you are stuck.

This week’s new puzzle is Skull and Crossbones. Not just any body will be able to solve this one.

If you color the pokémon by number of evolutionary stages, as is shown here (in this case, one stage is the lightest green, two stages is medium green, and three stages as dark green), you can read the number 1. This means that the answer is a pokémon which doesn’t evolve. Repeating a similar process for the type and generation of each pokémon will narrow your potential answers down to a single choice.
