Query about Mr. Mime's evolution chain correctness

Open ChrisMash opened this issue 10 months ago • 4 comments

I wanted to enquire about whether anyone agreed with me that Mr. Mime's evolution chain should be modified.

This might just be something that suits my project, so feel free to say "nah it's how it's intended"!

Currently it's Mime Jr. -> Mr. Mime -> Mr. Rime (https://github.com/PokeAPI/api-data/blob/8ff36d31b496facb2c43b65031d6e74212f6a15f/data/api/v2/evolution-chain/57/index.json#L75)

AFAIK the actual reality is: Mime Jr. -> Mr. Mime and Galarian Mr. Mime -> Mr. Rime

So would it be best to split the evolution chain in two, otherwise the only assumption you can really make from the data is that Mime Jr. can evolve all the way to Mr. Rime, which I don't believe is the case?

I could be wrong, I've not played most of the games, but what I've said is true in Pokemon Go at least!

I'd be happy to raise a PR with the change if it's agreed upon, just wanted to see what people thought before I went to the effort of figuring it out!
