Was just reading over the species types, nice art btw as I assume you drew the sketches, but I had an idea for the rockario, the aura used could be more nature energy based then spiritual energy, in addition the ground types are more in tune with nature then the rock and steel, due to having the ability to mood and shift dirt with their aura but not on a large scale, the rock type could have the ability to anchor rock and stone to there body using there aura like a form of stone manipulation thus having the ability to wield a shield of stone, while the steel kind... Are more like an aggron, a walking armored bulldozer, physically strong and resilient but slower and heavy.

I actually made the description for the Rockario on the fly. With such an appearance I thought that it would fit all three of those elements. Although that did run through my mind many of times. The ground types able to move earth. The rock able to manipulate stones. Then the metal able to pull metal ores out of the earth. Although I then gave it a second thought. If I did allow such then Metal would have disadvantages if no ore veins were in the area. The ground types would erode the areas around them. The rock ones would become too over powered considering the multitude of stones and thus making them no longer physical tanks but more resembling the tanks we use in our wars, machines of death. I could though allow small portions of the earthly materials be able to be merged with the aura but such a manipulation you speak of would be very destructive to the environment. Since The lucario act as guardians for other pokemon, they certainly wouldn't want an avalanche happening in their biome and crushing all to death.
It sounded better in my head, but yeah that was something I thought of, which is why, instead of the ground type being able to manipulate earth like... That blind girl from the last avatar, they are only able to manipulate small amounts with in 5ft of them selves but also required them to stand still as the process would be slow, but come to think of it the three types could have a sonar ability, so other then seeing through the use of aura they could see vibrations in the ground... Though that would allow them to also see through walls and floors... sweatdrop

The Aura vision shown in the movie does actually allow such Xray vision anyways. When you enter that mode, it's like everything turns into transparent crystals. Although for these guys I rather have them only be able to use small amounts of earth/rock/metal for the sake of protection XD. Also no role player is going to like having to be a brick wall that has to stand still in order to use special powers.
