lol sounds like castle defense pokemon style

Pikachu

can cause electrical shocks to everyone nearby and chains of lightning as well

can also generate enough electricity to create a thunder storm

 

[spirits]

primary UNIT

first it is a white unit with low everything then it can evolve into red blue or yellow green
red - goes with bonus attack
yellow bonus speed
blue average of both
green bonus defense

then if green and red move together they can turn into (im not sure what colour green and red make but they make one!) and get bonus attack and defense

yellow and red get red yellow !! and get bonus speed and attack

etcetc you get it right

Thanks for the ideas, now i have time, so i can explain better.

Like i said, im making a castle defense with only units, but i have the first units, like the basic, the easy things to do, you know, the powerful with long cooldown, the fast one, the supportive, the overall one, high hp low attack.

Now what i want is to make the superior or powerful units, for the high rounds, like with unique, creative abilities or a good new idea, because i have already done what you said.

Please share some ideas with me, remember that the units can evolve, like in bug evolution, because they are buldings.

Here are my ideas:

The Wolf Clan is Here!! Get ready to die!! (just kiddin)

Wolf Mauler - The primary infantry. He's still a human. Has moderate damage and move speed/atk. speed. Moderate armor. Has Bash and Pebble Toss (like storm bolt). Evolves into Berserker.

Berserker - Half human and half wolf. High damage and very fast attack speed. Moderate movement speed. Has Skin Armor (based on Mountain Giant's Hardened Skin) and Critical Strike with 35% chance and 1.5x more damage. Has Claw Missiles (like storm bolt but stronger) Evolves into Werewolf.

Werewolf - a powerful wolf with incredibly high damage (not too imba) and very fast attack speed. Fast movement speed. High armor. Has the Claws of Death ability w/c slices an enemy unit and damages/infects it. When the unit dies, it turns into a Timber Wolf. Evolves into a Lycantrophe.

Lycantrophe - A human fighter that can transform into a Lycantrophe Werewolf. Has very high armor in general. Has a special ranged attack against air units in both forms.

• In Human Form: Very high damage and moderate attack speed. Fast movement speed. Has Impale and Blink Strike (Omnislash, can be downloaded here). Also has Raging Fist (Bash with Crit. strike damage) and Ground Stomp (like War Stomp)
• In Lycantrophe Werewolf Form: Has the highest attack damage. Very fast movement speed and attack speed. Has Claws of Death just like what the werewolf does. Has Teleport and Energy Wave abilities. Can also do Windwalk and Flock of Daggers (like Warden's Fan of Knives ability)
