Chao Nicknames
I think we need more nicknames for the different kinds of Chao. You know, like we already have Sonic Chao, Elf Chao, Satan Chao, NiGHTS Chao, Reala Chao, and such. For example, this:
I think this should be nicknamed "Dog Chao". I mean, those ears.

Re: Chao Nicknames
I think of the Hero/Fly/Fly Chao as "Plant" Chao, because the four purple things sticking out of their heads always remind me of fronds on ferns.

Re: Chao Nicknames
Not bad. But for some reason, I look at it and I think "Feather" Chao."Plant" Chao
Anyways, here's some more I thought could use some good nicknames.
Scorpion Chao
Volcano Chao
Bulky Chao
Fish Chao
Butterfly Chao
OR
Antennae Chao

Re: Chao Nicknames
I particularly like "Butterfly Chao" - That's a great nickname, given the wings on that Chao!
Halfway through exploring the Hero/Run Chao for more nicknames, all I could come up with was "Sock Chao" or something similar - they all look like they're wearing socks and gloves, and little antennae warmers! This little guy is a Hero/Run/Swim;

Re: Chao Nicknames
This site, a long ways back, used to have nicknames for all chao evolutions. I think it was scrapped because there was nothing official about the names and they were just too subjective.
Finding the old nicknames from this site has proven to be very difficult for me.
Anyway, some Hero/Run chao look more like they have fountains or palm trees on their heads. Or at least they do to me. I can see the sock idea though.
Also, what breed is that chao?

That makes sense. It's just a bit of fun coming up with names like these~Mamkute wrote: This site, a long ways back, used to have nicknames for all chao evolutions. I think it was scrapped because there was nothing official about the names and they were just too subjective.
(At least "Sumo Chao" seemed to stick! I'm glad for that.)
I can see that resemblance. Fountain Chao has a nice ring to it, anyway!Mamkute wrote: Anyway, some Hero/Run chao look more like they have fountains or palm trees on their heads. Or at least they do to me. I can see the sock idea though.

He's a Hero/Run/Swim Chao - at (what I presume is) full second-evolution.

Re: Chao Nicknames
The old nicknames! They're all here! ...So it seems. Actually, they do not cover the "mixed" secondary evolutions, such as the one I pointed out that could be called the "Dog Chao".

Re: Chao Nicknames
The idea that mixed second evolutions were just as much a thing as "pure" second evolutions was an idea that came around much later than these nicknames. The main site itself didn't get pictures of all the mixed second evolutions until just a few years ago.

Re: Chao Nicknames
Are you sure they got ALL of the mixed second evolutions? & if so do you think it's possible to create a new mod for SA2B so people can combine any 2 evolutions together to make more like for instance a Hero/Swim/Swim+Run Chao morphed with a Hero/Swim/Fly+Run Chao or even a Dark/Run/Fly+Run Chao morphed with a Neutral/Run/Swim+Power Chao??Mamkute wrote:The idea that mixed second evolutions were just as much a thing as "pure" second evolutions was an idea that came around much later than these nicknames.

Re: Chao Nicknames
I dont think it would be possible unless you completely reprogrammed the whole sliders for Swim, Fly, Power, and Run,which would take a whole lot of effort.
is the pikmin in my avatar on something or...
Re: Chao Nicknames
CanSteam is correct, in that pretty much the entire system of gradual evolutions would need to be reworked to get that.
And the main site does have all of the mixed second evolutions. Given the way gradual evolution works, there is no Swim+Fly or Run+Power possible, so there are not any hidden ones.
Although, chao in there second evolution portion of life could look different from what is shown, since the pictures on the main site are all "maxed" in the stat influence. Here is a poor diagram to show it:
The main site has the pictures for all of the black dots, but there are all sorts of other, less extreme ways a chao can look.

Re: Chao Nicknames
I see, so my best bet to change the Hero/Swim/Swim+Run's pointy ears to look more like the Hero/Swim/Fly+Run's rounded ears would be to give it more Fly Chaos Drives & Animals then vice versa; more Swim Chaos Drives & Animals for the Fly+Run. But for those Dark/Run/Fly+Run & Neutral/Run/Swim+Power Chao's to morph together would be impossible unless someone can rework the gradual evolutions? I'll probably mess with them anyway to see just how much I can change their appearance.
Re: Chao Nicknames
I think that chaoSwim/fly+run should be a link chao

That's nice, but what will you do with it in its next life?
