Basic Pokemon Ecology

A brief outline of what each pokemon species you might like to start with is like. Details are entirely due to my own decisions, and the few ecological facts on Pokemon I could find. If they are not to your opinion, then I suggest you play another type!

For definitions of Ecological terms, click here.

If the species you want to play is not here, then chances are you cannot play it. Talk to a moderator if you have any questions.

Disclaimer: All the artwork and ideas on these pages are the property of their creators, and the Lake Eerie RPing system, whilst fairly basic, is the property of the Moderating Committee, please do not use the specifics without our express permission. Also, anybody who steals artwork, character concepts or original Pokemon from this site, and the Lake Eerie egroup, will have to face the wrath of Ootachi-sami, and he'll eat anything. You have been warned!
