I must definitely be giving water energy! I loved the quiz and thought the questions did a good job of not hinting at what type they're connected to. Thank you for doing all this research Professor! :)
Also, I'm super interested in the stats as well! How are those generated? I'm trying to find a pokemon with a similar loadout but haven't had any luck yet.
Ahh thank you so much! That's all so nice of you to say, and also thank you for referring to me by my completely legitimate title :)
And great question about the stats! So originally, these were a somewhat-silly side thing that I included as a little extra inspiration for people who wanted to make a pokemon out of themselves, but there's still thought put into them. They're largely fueled by the attribute scores (like "helpful", "good vibes" etc) but with a few extra bonuses derived from the certain answers to specific questions. They're not actually calculated as a number, but rather as a percentage, so that everyone who takes this test gets a stat total of 450, give or take 10 pts from rounding shenanigans. I picked that number because it's the stat total of Piloswine, which could either be considered a final evolution or a middle evolution, depending on what game it's in. Potential room for growth, or potential final form, depending on how you want to look at it, but definitely not a baby!
As for the reasoning behind specifc stats, there are some attributes that are obvious (e.g. a high "defensive" score would add more defense, obvs) but there's some that are more associational. So for instance, your "helpful" and "good vibes" attributes are shared by high-HP pokemon (think Chansey, Wailord, Alomomola, Lapras, etc) and that surely contributed to your crazy high HP stat.
I hope that answers your question and was also not too boring :)
