Entry: 587 and 702
Continuing like before, and hopefully finishing up, we continue on to Emolga, or Emonga, of Univa. Shortly after the Protochu reached the Univa region, they attained their electric typing. In fact, they became electric types faster than any other Protochu form, as the early humans in Univa were experimenting with electricity from a very early time and, consequently, leaving a lot of stray static in the air.
Naturally they developed the electricity pouches on their cheeks that all Protochu forms have, and then began forming a new fur color, the white and black we see today, to let them blend into the growing town and expanding building of the time.
This let them spend more and more time in the cities, which led to them getting more and more exposure to the electricity, and gaining more and more control over their abilities.
Unfortunately, with the taller the buildings got, the higher the Protochu had to climb to form their dens, as it was a habit of them to respect whomever had the highest den on a building. They almost went extinct because of this, many falling to their deaths each day.
And then, finally, they evolved something that saved the species: the wing-like membrane that let them glade over the city when they fell. Gradually, they learned to channel static through their wings to glide with even more control, becoming what we recognize today as Emolga.
And last but not least in Dedenne of Kalos. These Protochu were brought about by the aftermath of the great war that had taken place in the region. Before then, the Protochu had looked much the same as all the others. But now, the region was in ruin, the population was slim, and they were all weak.
So they evolved something that let them survive in spite of all this: stealth. They became smaller, letting them scurry around in the grass and trees without being noticed. Their tails became longer as they began developing the ability to channel electricity through it, as it was much safer to attack with the tail and risk it getting cut than to attack with anything else and get it cut off.
With the longer, more adaptable tails, the Protochu learned to send electricity through their tails in the form of radio waves. Now they were able to communicate without even needing to speak verbally, which increased their stealth in the wilderness even further, as only other electric types would be able to pick up on the waves, and even then were unlikely to know what it was. They had become the modern day Dedenne.
And that just about covers it all really. There aren't (currently) any other forms of the Protochu. If ever there was, I'll be sure to make another journal entry on it as well. Until then, I hope you've gained a further appreciation of the Protochu forms.
