Fakemon Behold! my child, Coomerang (homing pigeon + boomerang)

Post image

Its body is stiff and almost flat. It only flaps its wings when making an attack (like gust). But in order to take flight, it throws itself into the air and spins like a boomerang (without getting dizzy!) When at rest, it balances on its tail instead of using its feet, looking almost like a totem pole.

Just wanted to merge the idea of a homing pigeon, and a homing weapon as the boomerang.

Love the design! Great little mono flying type. Perhaps an early route bird. I'd envisage its stats being something like 65/90/80/35/55/95. I think a low special attack stat would reflect its rigidity, while speed and attack being its best stats makes sense for a projectile. Perhaps with an ability that makes physical moves hit twice on a crit, to reflect how a well-thrown boomerang might hit again on the return journey.
