For a very critical reason, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all future :+fav:ers and :+devwatch:ers of my works. :D :D :D

What? My cute Dark/Flying Scampie is evolving? Dun dun dun dun... Dudun! Amazing! For a regional bird, Scampie's evo, Flundrepie [again, not '-peee' but -pie as in the edible 'pie'], sure looks like it packs a powerful Sucker Punch! :P

Flundrepie here is based on kletoparasitic birds, generally seabirds [frigatebirds, skuas, and jaegers], on magpies, and on black-and-white prison outfit. I gave it a stealthy and criminal personality, hence the tie up with thievery, much like its pre-evo, Scampie. This is shown in its moves, which it inherits from the Dark/Flying Tiny Bird Fakemon. However, Flundrepie also has a tendency to ward off threats to its stealing antics. Kudos to both :iconsnappy-k: and :iconfawkestheskarmory: for guessing my Post-Halloween 2010 Fakemon Silhouette #2! :D

According to the Dex entry I made for it, Flundrepie is "famous for throwing anything... often seen carrying something on one of its feet to fling to the opponents when threatened." This justifies the added moves it gets after evolution: Pay Day [interestingly Meowth's and Persian's signature move] scatters coins towards the foe as a form of damage; and Fling, a fitting Dark-typed move which damages the opponent based on the item held and subsequently thrown by Flundrepie. Also, Sucker Punch is there as testament for Flundrepie's Dark tendencies. The rest of its moves are from Scampie, though, so you might as well check my Tiny Bird's page.

Stat-wise, Flundrepie still follows Fearow's and Noctowl's stat total, 12 points more than Swellow's and Pelipper's. Again, like Scampie is to Spearow, Flundrepie's stats are reflections of Fearow's. Flundrepie's 105 Attack and 95 Speed grew 30 points from Scampie's, same as Fearow's 90 Attack and 100 Speed to Spearow's. Flundrepie is noticably more offensive than Fearow, while the latter is faster than my Thief Pokémon. Defense-wise, Flundrepie's 64 and Fearow's 65 each grew 35 points from their basic stages. Basically, that's it with the point-growth comparisons, as Flundrepie's 75 HP, 39 Special Attack, and 64 Special Defense no longer increased the same way Fearow's 65 HP, 61 Special Attack, and 61 Special Defense did. Also, looking at those stats, Flundrepie has more HP and Special Defense, but has significantly lower Special Attack than Fearow.

On a side note, it is also interesting to mention that while unintentional, Scampie and Spearow shares the same first letter, similar to Flundrepie and Fearow. Just a small useless trivia I noticed. Lol. :D

Flundrepie is a very useful Fakemon in both in battles and overworld in general. While it has good stats and moves [I'd definitely go for Drill Peck, Sucker Punch, Roost, and a gimmick move of either Fling, Snatch, or the funny Pay Day] plus its Frisk Ability as a battling Fakemon, it is also a good choice to keep Pickup on. Only a few final evolutions can have Pickup as their Ability [Linoone and Ambipom], and I personally think the ability fits Flundrepie perfectly. Note also that the higher the level, the rarer and more useful the items for Pickup are, so Flundrepie really makes a good Pickup candidate. :D

Flundrepie is mine!

cool fakemon, it's amazing that this one loves to steal from others without showing remorse for it.
