A Parasect evolution! :iconpristichampsus: suggested I come up with one, so here is my idea. Question: Is the hidden ability too good?

Also, :iconsorenosiris: and I want to continue doing fake Pokémon in tandem, based on the same concept. He did a Parasect evo, too! [link]

Parasectid
Bug/Grass
The Second Host Pokémon
Evolves from Parasect after defeating a Caterpie in a battle during which the move Infect* was used.
*Infect is a new signature move for the Paras line. It causes the target's moves to be replaced with the user's moves, minus Infect (meaning the target will only have three moves).
Ability: Effect Spore/Dry Skin
Hidden Ability: Climber (During Intense Sunlight, can only be hit by status and fire moves)

Pokédex 1: Once the bug it inhabits begins to deteriorate, PARASECT takes over the body of CATERPIE and becomes PARASECTID.
Pokédex 2: For some reason, once the mushroom is transfered from the old body to CATERPIE, it gains incredible speed.

Ht. 1'03" Wt. 7.2 lbs

I love the idea and art, but you do realize that a 130 Spd Pokemon with Spore is absolutely bonkers?

The fastest Spore user is Smeargle, with a base speed of 75.

Yeah, this is kind of a joke ^_^
I appreciate your eye for detail, though!

... I've been playing Pokémon Red for the first time, and a fast Spore user would definitely be like a Wonder Guard Sableye in those games, but it would still be possible to beat one of these things nowadays. Not fun, though.

True, Sleep Cause is enforced even by Nintendo, and Insomnia and whatnot are around as well.

Superfast Caterpie! I was reading about Cordyceps on Wikipedia and found out that some Chinese athletes once took Caterpillar Cordyceps to increase their speed in a race. So I made this guy super fast!

DD: Aw hell naw. I... I wonder if it's possible for the fungus to like, sprout from humans like it does bugs? Oh God, why did I google image cordycep-infected bugs? Just wait, I'll have fungus-filled nightmares within the week.

Videos are especially creepy. You know the mushroom actually takes over the mind of an insect, and makes it crawl zombie-like towards the best place for the fungus to spread it spores from?

YES! God, I was such a biology nerd in high school. Srsly, I picked up two old Biology textbooks at garage sales for my own personal readings. But there's so much I FORGOT... A couple years out of high school and bam, you forget all this stuff. Actually, I may have blocked it out... I saw an infected grasshopper once fall into the pool, and then some gross worm thing came out of it. It was SCARRING.
