could ALL of these be Centenary Forms?
they all show different signs of age, longevity, or are just canonically really old
• covered in moss 🐻💤
• practically a ghost 🐭⚡️
• a "guru", an elder 🐶🎨
• white "hair" 🌱💿

y'know.. we make a lotta fan designs where a Pokémon's biology has been influenced by what species its parents are.. but that's kinda already been a thing?
Piloswine evolves into Mamoswine when it knows Ancient Power, but can't know that move naturally unless Swinub hatched from an Egg bred by Dunsparce, Dudunsparce, or Kecleon, who can learn it naturally
interestingly tho, Swinub and Piloswine CAN learn Ancient Power naturally in Legends Arceus, and while this is most likely explained out-of-universe as breeding not being in the game, it could also be that Mamoswine is technically a "lost" ancient evolution like Wyrdeer
this eventually resulted in a video on Bird Keeper Toby's channel:
y'all ready for #PokémonLegendsArceus to turn 3 years old soon?
at one point i worked with some folks at the Fuji's Lab server to decipher the "hieroglyphs" seen all over Hisui, and these were my conclusions:
Kai Cyreus
Chris Jones (Lord Chris)
