Charniplex, the Fractal Pokémon!

Type: Dark/Ground

Instead of growing by branching off new segments or growing bilaterally, Charniplexes would actually expand fractally; starting from the base, it would grow a lobe off one side of its central axis, then the other side, then the other. This process is called glide reflection, and it creates Charniplex’s distinctive asymmetric pattern.

Glidetile, the Symmetric? Pokemon!

Type: Normal

After a set of massive ice ages at the end of the Proterozoic, multicellular life finally began to kick off, giving us some of the first large Pokemon. Being too primitive to exhibit true bilateral symmetry, Glidetile and other species like it would instead grow sections one side at a time, starting from a center node.

I'm sorry this is kind of off-topic but after reading the End-Ediacaran extinction post I had a dream that you and your friends were discussing Awesomebro Vendobionta and now I can't stop thinking about how someone could possibly turn these things awesomebro.

the weirdest part of this message is that yes me and my friends would have this exact conversation 

And probably by saying they could actually eat each other and their mouths were actually buried under the sediment (even though we know they didn’t burrow much) or something
