It's time to playWho did it better?
>>55746884>Waifuing Pixie is canonObviously her
>>55746884palworld
>>55746884for me its between blizzaria and dark magician girlhonestly
>>55746922Yes
>>55746884Dark Magician girl or Pixie
>>55746884BMG is peak
Here's a template, if you want to make your own
>>55746884>not a single bad choiceI'm between Angewomon and Dark Magician Girl. I might say Angewomon because she still is an absolute beast in terms of power
>>55746884Dark magician girl wants it, Pixie is incredibly loyal, and Blizzaria is well she's Blizzaria which is still more than Angewomon's nothing. Gonna have to go with youkai watch on this one.
>>55747428Is this modded?
This is the waifu for Dragon Quest.
>>55747474and here's a template that includes Medabots!
>>55748999cowards still dont add palworld
>>55749012There's too many things going against Palworld for these things1. It's too new. Every other franchise listed has at least a decade under its belt and thus all at least a few hundred monsters to work with. Palworld has only been around a single year and barely has more than a hundred. 2. Lack of variety. Even for its small pool of monsters, Palworld's monsters feel too samey. Over 20% of the pals in the paldeck are cats and foxes. That's ridiculous.3. Lack of identity. Palworld is very clear on being a parody of Pokemon. That is fine, but it means it is absolutely lacking in identity compared to the other franchises here that have their own unique takes on monster design.4. Lack of official art. The character models are decent enough, but would still look pretty bad placed among the 2D art of the other franchises. Every other franchise here has official 3D art for MOST of their monsters, though there are exceptions such as newer Yokai Watch designs are older Megami Tensei designs like in >>55749012 (This is also what is unfortunately keeping Monster Rancher off these)
>>55749010Digimon=YokaiWatch>Medabots>Everything else.
>>55749225I have to give it to Pyro Jack here
One day, I want to make a thread with this template but just for favorite monsters each series kind of thing.
>>55749188This. I enjoyed Palworld, but their roaster is animals, foxes, cats, deers, waifus, and one than another lots of "not copies" I mean, that flying Aggron with dark wings totally belongs on Neopets, and I feel there's others that belong in Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest.They need more monsters, kaijus, and even mechas If I can craft weaponry, why can't I craft a robot Palmon, and maybe more mythology Anubis is just a softer fusion of Lucario from Pokémon and literally Anubis from SMT. If you are bringing mythos, give me a werewolf, a dracula, or give me Izanami.
>>55749188There is a better example for Yu-Gi-Oh! though.
>>55749188What's the name for the Yokai Watch one? She look cute
>>55749632What's that YGO monster?
>>55749704Majo Fuumin, though it's really just a mobile-exclusive variant of Insomni>>55749714Alien Overlord
>>55746884I'm going to go with Gardevoir -- I'm still not convinced that the others aren't just human women in costumes.
>>55749689Cute! I like this one a lot, but it's a little too similar in concept to Pyro Jack, same but more so with Ghostrick Lantern. It's the Ghosts Wearing Witch Hats That Are Usually Purple or Blue and Bent.png not Pumpkin-Headed Ghosts Wearing Witch Hats That Are Usually Purple or Blue and Bent.png
I find it funny that a small amount of time after I made this Lilith got another SMT design
>>55748560No. Pals are just naturally superior.
>>55746884DMG and it's not close
>>55749777Decided to make a second version with Vengance Lilith and Despian Luluwalilith
>>55749372niggas that reflect physical
>>55749372what are these based off of?
>>55749821Dogū, mysterious clay figures from ancient Japan
if i were ever to create a monster collection game, what architypes are required?
someone make a chart but with the worst designs of each series
>>55749777>>55749814Lilithmon, my beloved
>>55749936Assuming you don't have a specific theme, generally you need a cute mascot, at least two tough looking guys, a couple cool guys, a girly one, a recolored animal, and a couple strange ones that fill an ecological niche like detritivore, and one that has a silly face to be used for reaction images.
>>55749936Slimes. You always got to have that slime.
>>55750003thanks good to know>>55750050ill be sure to squeeze one in
>>55749873I still don't know why way too many DQ's monsters wear boots, gloves, hats...while they are clearly wild monsters. Like this seahorse, why does he wear boots but not hat or shirt? Did they stole the boots from fallen adventures? Did his species evolution to walk in land so they need boots?
>>55750181Wild isn't exactly correct. Also it makes them easier to understand.
>>55749936you have your basic animals then there are creature from folklores and myths.>>55749225Pyro Jack and Pumpmon win this one easily
>>55746884Pixie>DMG>Angel woman>gard>DQ>literally just a girl in a kimono
>>55749936Some kind of mimic/chest monster is always a cool inclusion. Doesn't have to be a literal chest, but anything that baits the player into thinking they might get an item or something is good.
>>55751216Wolfman and Warwolf getting cut was such a blunder
Why doesn't Pokemon have its own amabie yet?
was going to put Egor, but people bitched that Steven wasn't the go to.
>>55749936One thing that’s extremely important for any monster franchise is that you need a good variety of different creatures to suit different tastes. You need a good balance of cute, cool, and weird.
>>55751237Never heard of this thing before, but it's getting added to SMTV Vengeance, and it looks super cute.https://youtu.be/7rGW15eMWlc?si=PBvUekjW7xN5nwUg
>>55751852It was an anti covid mascot of sorts. YGO also had one.
>>55751237>>55751852Digimon doesn't have an amabie either
im not doing all of these>>55749010yu gi oh did it bestbut pokemon is 2nd>>55749188yokai watch , shin magami tensei then pokemonin that order from best to worst dont care about the rest>>55749201dragon quest did it best followed by digimon>>55749372ok pokemon just did the worst herestraight up>>55749632pokemon did the 2nd worstfollowed by dragon quest , everything else is so much cooler>>55749657im split between pokemon digimon and yugioh on this one>>55749674pokemon did the worst here nuff said>>55751800ill be honest i like all of thesewho did it best... dragon quest the simplicity of the big slime becoming a flan is amazing
I love making these. Any requests or ideas?
Do the other franchises have two flavors of burning phoenix?
>>55746884
>>55752551Sea slugs?
>>55752551do mothsmoths>buttergays
>>55752561Monster Rancher have a Phoenix and a blue version, also I know those are fire birds but I don't think they are the Phoenix of their franchises.what about fairies?
>>55752616>what about fairies?that was for >>55752551I think Shadramon (Digimon) is more like a moth, I think Hudiemon is better pick
>>55752580Some franchises are pretty lacking in aquatic gastropods, so I had to take what I could get
>>55752612Unfortunately Yokai Watch has no moths
>>55752551>Buraimon>Hisuian DecidueyeStraw hat/Ronin birds
>Have an idea for one of these things.>Look up the demon that would be relevant for SMT.>They haven't had an appearance since the original MT duology or Devil Children, and either have no official art or are too different from "standard" SMT to be a good representative of the series.goddamn when are they going to get around to giving all the Ars Goetia dudes designs and shit
>>55752696I hate when that happend, just yesterday I was looking to make a meme with some rookie digimons but the classic artstyle make some of them look bad in comparation to how they portrayed elsewhere.
>>55749372pokemon and medabots do it best, the rest are literally just copy-pastes of eachother because they don't change ANYTHING
>>55752561There are plenty in YGOSacred Phoenix of Nephyts - Cerulian Sacred Phoenix of Nephyts - Dark Nephtis - Nephtys Sacred Flame - Chaos Nephyts - Metaphys NephytsAnd Salamagreat Pyro Phoenix - Salamangreat Raging Phoenix>>55752658Yugioh also has more options for sea slugs if you also count mermaids of sea animals Like Mermail Abyssdine
>>55752616>>55752625
>>55751252If you play Persona, you could put Philemon, since he is the guy who awokens the personas in the first games.
i'm accepting suggestions for DQ and YW
>>55752551Let's see THEM RATS
>>55753318
>>55753045Only in china, but Gatchadokuro was replaced by a weird automaton
>>55752551You have them octopus? Also monsters that is fusion. Not chimera but more like mecha gattai.
>>55753463
>>55749188Nobody cares about palworld, nothing has an identity beyond haha its pokemon with guns.
>>55749873I like DQ's the best for this one; it's not particularly cool or "badass" but everything about the design fits together perfectly
>>55754054Agreed, it’s a very fun design, though I am also very partial to SMT’s Zhen.
>>55753375Pokemon, SMT and Digimon are the worst ones here, I like the rest way too much... also the Medabots one is something else.>>55753421China forbid skeletons>>55751246Digimon win this one by alot, I'll give DQ second place
>>55748999I kneel
>>55751246For smt you should use daemon instead of incubus
>>55752551Keep digimon and pokemon in >>55753263 and add chimera monsters from other franchise.
>>55755647
>>55752551could you do steampunk?
>>55752658why not shellmon for digimon?
>>55752561Medabots also has a phoenixbot but I dunno if 2
It sucks that Konami never once credited the artists they're working with because some of these monsters design were among the best out there.
>>55753045Sister Ciel is way cooler than Noir because of her Ghost Game appearanceThe adrenaline junkie was kino
>>55756103Don't forget Mugendramon, the mechanical chimera alternative to fleshy Chimairamon
>>55752551Mimics if possible
>>55756103to provide more context on what >>55757271said:
>>55755637Daemon doesn't match even harder.
>>55757322
>>55757630Awesome!
>>55752551Is there enough for a chess theme? want to make a chess-based creature designBisharp is chess im sure we can all agree
>>55758365There's the Chessmons, the Puppet cards in YGO and the bad guys in DQVDunno about Monster Rancher or YKW
>>55758365I know Digimon do have a like 4 or 6 chess based Digimon
>>55757271I just remembered there's an ocean Digimon one, too, now
>>55758365Well there is a small but subtle one in SMT, Jack Frost has a King Frost and an Ace Frost variant (Queen Frost is only in Devil Children)
>>55746884You could start by telling me what those are, I don't speak in Ching Chong.
>>55758480from left to right, top to bottom>Pokemon>Shin Megami Tensei>Digimon>Dragon Quest>Yo-Kai Watcg> Yu-Gi-Ohyou may as well some Medabots like in>>55749674>>55749372
>>55757145Yu-Gi-Oh win this one easily. Digimon would be decent if remove the hooded dude
>>55759114There is a hoodedman-less variant
>>55752683muito real...
>>55759199Now this looks better, still don't like the gun, but it's digimon, can't be help.
>>55749010Jesus I forgot for a while Medabots used to be the #3 after Pokemon and Digimon in the partner creature thing genre.
>>55749201Genies are so fucking garbage
>>55752936SEXOExcept Digimon and especially DQ
>>55759875man i can't believe we don't have a castle pokemon yet. palossand and stakataka just don't scratch that itch
>>55759875Really? No king? I would've put Empoleon. I know, Emperor Penguin, but an Emperor is just a bigger king.
>>55759896Wait, no, it was queen. I'm retarded.Maybe a Kingambit's female version? I miss gender differences.
>>55759896>>55759901I'm specifically going for fully chess themed mons, even though I know the Pawniard line is really more based around Shogi
>>55746884YKW>>55749010Pokemon or Digimon>>55749188Digimon>>55749201Digimon SMT YKW tie>>55749225YGO>>55749372Pokemon>>55749632YGO>>55749657Digimon>>55749674SMT but it's a bit edgy so DQ>>55749777Pokemon>>55749814Pokemon>>55749873YGO>>55750050Pokemon>>55750454Pokemon Digimon tie>>55751216Pokemon but these all kinda suck>>55751246Digimon>>55751248Ludicolo Digimon YGO tie, they're all great for different reasons>>55751252No comment>>55751254Pokemon DQ tie (yes I like Thundurus)>>55751800Digimon's cute little guy and DQ tie but I like all of them>>55752551Pokemon MOGS>>55752561Pokemon>>55752658Tie except for YKW and SMT which are lame>>55752683SMT>>55752936SMT YGO Medabots tie>>55753045SMT MOGS, they're hilarious>>55753263SMT Digimon tie>>55753375YKW>>55753421I like China's more ngl>>55753868Pokemon Digimon YKW tie>>55755274SMT Digimon tie and MOGS>>55755427Digimon MOGS that thing is awesome but Pokemon is close>>55756103SMT>>55757145YKW Digimon tie>>55757271He's so cool...>>55758044Digimon MOGS>>55758379He's also super cool>>55759875Pawniard and Bisharp are cooler than their counterparts but Digimon otherwiseMy taste is impeccable.
>>55758475Hours later I realize you said chess not cards, that is what I get for posting while half asleep
>>55746884Dark Magician Girl is the GOATI never cared about PixieI wanted to fuck Witch, but prefer Morag nowGardevoir is coolLadyDevimon>AngelwomonI don't know anything about Yokai Watch, but I liked the cyclops girl more.
>>55749873what's the smt one called
>>55759968Zhen. It's supposed to be some Chinese mythical poisonous bird, but Kaneko ingeniously drew it as as some sort of bird/sea horse fusion.
>>55758480stop acting white and midwestern
>>55759875uh, panward/bisharp/kingambit aren't chess pieces in japanese, that's just white localization.
>>557600914 of the 6 have English text on the logos and you should know what a Pokémon is already if you are on this board.
>>55760302Pokemon and YKW for me.
>>55757271>>55757630I always forget Mugendramon is a chimera, probably because of how well the parts fit together
>>55760302Honestly insane that there's still no centipede Digimon (although the franchise is lacking a lot of bugs in general so I guess it's not that surprising)
>>55760111Not to mention all six have such iconic art styles, if you are just remotely familiar with any of these franchises, you should be able to figure them out from that alone.
>>55760302i honestly think all of these are pretty good i would say either pokemon or yokai watch for this one
>>55749777Isn't there a new Lilith design coming up for SMT VV?
>>55760841He just looks like a cool robot dragon until you look closer and recognize the parts from the prototype cyborgs because there's no color clash to show the pieces came from a bunch of other Digimon like on the other two chimeras
>>55746884>Womanlike monsters>Goddesses, Demons, Witches and Sluts>Women in cosplay>Toriyama women and womanlike monsters>Sexbeast succgoblin Chatalie>Women in cosplay, Monster girls and oh who cares, fucking Chatalie my dudesI'd correct the fuck outta that OL yokai
>>55750050Dragon QuestThere is no competition.
>>55759875Kingambit has to be the ugliest fucking POKeMON ever released of all time in history
>>55751237Literally mermaid jynx, good idea for a convergent
>>55752551Add Moster Rancher, I want Pixies, PIXIES!!
>>55762487That is literally what I was talking about in my post
>>55757145What's the Medabot?
greed
>>55759875Is Bisharp supposed to be a retainer?
>>55763148Her name is Time Faller
these threads make me wonder if i even like pokemon's art style
>>55763336Yeah. These really show how Pokémon plays it safe. It works for creating mass appeal, but once they’re compared to other franchises they come off as underwhelming.
>>55763336the stock art sucks, the card illustrations are much better. One thing pokemon lacks is ANATOMY, the designs are too simple.
>>55746884as usual, Pokémon being talent-less plagiarist
>>55764073Did you really think Dragon Quest lacks wolves or are you just lazy?
>>55764156I requested the pic
>>55764073Why is the Digiwolf dressed like a slut?
>>55764073we can do better than that. Also i think fangmon is a coyote, not a wolf.
>>55763189>Not the Jew Digimon
>>55764536Fangmon was born from fairy tale dataHe's the Big Bad Wolf
>>55764536If someone wants to improve the pic there's Pascal from SMT and Nihonookaminyan from Yokai Watch
>>55764565
>>55746884where is Monster Rancher Faggot?
Lucifer/Fallen Angel themes. I know that SMT (duh) and Digimon have them and I think you could probably argue that Necrozma (ultra) counts for Pokemon.
>>55762634>>55764602I would have added Monster Rancher to these ages ago if most of the monsters had decent official art. Unfortunately most of its mons only have low poly models.
>>55764073>>55764536>>55764565Why Cerberus and Pascal when those are dogs? Wouldn't Fenrir make more sense?
>>55764616>I think you could probably argue that Necrozma (ultra) counts for PokemonGiratina
>>55764616which Lucemon would you use tho?
>>55746884Pixie isn’t even close to the best SMT waifuBut if were going with only the ones in the pic then DMG
>>55764964Mine is SMT 1, followed by Cherub. Considering the Divine evolution, is like if your waifu could turn into a Pokémon, like a reverse Zoroark.
>>55760302I think Centiskorch would fit better
>>55762625I’m starting to wonder if Jynx was based on one of these in the first place.
>>55767087Belphemon's so cute when he's eepynot a fan of his awake form with the paw shoulders tho
this is the best thread on the catalogno coomersno waifu shitno weird samurott hateI wish all of /vp/ was this civil
>>55763209>>Womanlike monsters>>Goddesses, Demons, Witches and Sluts>>Women in cosplay>>Toriyama women and womanlike monsters>>Sexbeast succgoblin Chatalie>>Women in cosplay, Monster girls and oh who cares, fucking Chatalie my dudes>look at SMTI hate to be that guy but....is that a Jojo refenece?
>>55767264for some reason I quoted far too many thing and I didn't realisedhere is the correct comment:>>55763209>look at SMTI hate to be that guy but....is that a Jojo refenece?
>>55767006Ariados probably would count. The design is at least partially based on a joro spider and named after a greek woman whose name starts with Ar, so it sits in general vicinity.
>>55767087what is the theme here?
>>55767459Filename is nightmares.
>>55767459Nightmares
>>55767459>>55767483Yup. They are all monsters that are either based around or have the ability to trap their opponent in a nightmare.
>>55762881Weird how the closest thing SMT has to a chameleon is this fucking guy.
>>55764964For me, it's Pixie's hot Asian friend.
>>55767585I wouldn't call it weird. SMT is mythology focused and as far as I'm aware, there aren't exactly that many chameleons in mythology outside of a few African tribes.
hey what about adding the Dream Eaters from Kingdom Hearts, in that game you don't have party meme but instead you recruit these creatures to fight along side you:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1etYHAKYa0
Is there one for bees?
>>55767922Not yet, as far as I’m aware
There's Rotom equivalents on the other franchises? Like poltergeist or possessed home appliances
>>55768220Well, I haven't played DQ, so I don't know there.In Yugioh everything can be a monster. Hell, a burger is a monster in there where you need a rite card (or whatever it was called) to summon it.Pokémon has Rotom. SMT has the Robot dolls from the first game. I don't remember many Digimons, been a long time I saw the anime and played World DS, but I remember Medabots having a Teddy Bear Medabot, I don't know if that counts.
>>55767922
>>55769786why not the better -beemon?
>>55769807I was going for a purely honeybee thing, but CannonBeemon probably works just as good, if not better for that.
>>55770456whats the theme here? fast cool hero? Ninja?
>>55770456toku hero.Here is ninja
>>55770465now do samurai
>>55770474Dammit....I have samurai, but I am already in bed.
>>55770474>>55770483Deilvered
>>55755274>>55771021Hydramon is a fantastic designYou could put the thing against most monsters in most franchises and it would sweep
>>55771088Digimon's been absolutely killing it with most of the new designs over the last few years, it's nice to see a long-running mons franchise actually regain its spark instead of stagnating
>>55771144Is... Is that a bloody W40K Ork?!
>>55771144it kinda helps that the base line of what a Digimon can be is far mode wide>>55771358Rebellimon, I was not much fan of him till his episode in the reboothttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnZt6YNPk0cjust like many Pokemon, many of my favorite Digimon were sold to me by the anime
>>55771358It's this guy after he got his ass kicked
>>55763655Yugioh just got their fire monkey!
>>55771789Snimon is so coolI wish he had a proper evo line
>>55771813I feel like that's a problem with a lot of Digimon. They're just random guys made for a vpet or card filler and don't really fit anywhere.
>>55771848yeah but sometimes they create dudes like >>55771144 to fill in some evo lines
>>55771858I feel like that's a pretty recent trend for Digimon, a lot of "orphans" that didn't really have any thematic pre-evolutions or evolutions started getting them
This whole thread is reminding me how much I fucking love monster collection series. Pokemon, Digimon, Yokai, etc they're all so fucking good man, seeing all the different unique takes on the same concepts together is really making me appreciate their approaches more.
>>55771813Scorpiomon seems like a fitting evo and Dokunemon works almost perfectly as a prevo. Just really needs a proper Mega/Ultimate
>>55746884So much different shit.A monster-woman in a dress, a fairy,a mecha bayonetta-type twitch, an evil ghostly witch like Mismagius, a loli ghost, a magical anime girl with a wand. U stupid?If the theme is "the most feminine human-resembling character in that series", then whatever the last thing is.
>>55771813https://wikimon.net/Digital_Monster_Ver._WonderSwanIt gets weirder when you look at its history. It and Dokugamon were designed to replace two insect digimon for a different Vpet but out of the four only Snimon got left out of an mantis-themed evo>Kabutermon -> AlturKabuterimon>Kwuagamon -> Okuwamon>Dokugamon -> Archnemon
>>55771974>mecha bayonetta-type twitchHow do you get mecha or witch out of Angewomon? She's just an angel wearing a helmet that covers her eyes and a skimpy outfit
>>55771078couldve also used samurott for samurai as kingambit is already in the chess pic
>>55765243God Lopunny is so fucking ugly. It only looks good in fanart
>>55771078TILL THE DAWN, THEY HOLD ONONLY 40 LEFT IN THE ENDNONE ALIVE, NONE SURVIVEDSHIROYAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
>>55772714the DQ one is surprisingly graphic
>>55752561I have to say, regional are way better than recolors. Unlike other RPGs when they do the whole recolor skin and call it another monster, Pokemon really went out and beyond with their version. Regional actually say they ARE the same creatures but adapt to the environment and instead of looking the same, they added some parts to look like a new creature (well some of them do). Alolan Sandslash with it's ice pick claws and crystal back which prevent it from rolling into a ball.
>>55772714This definitely wasn't an archetype I was expecting all of these franchises to have covered
>>55772747>Unlike other RPGs when they do the whole recolor skin and call it another monsterthat's because it was a way to save space, rather than having a whole different sprite/model it was more efficient to have recolors.why waste time with creatures that are just meant to be killed and forgotten?
>>55772301whats this theme?
>>55771078>>55770483I was going to go for the heavy samurai more so than standard.Golisopod is implied heavy samurai;"Gusokumusha" means fully armored warriors./
>>55772781Human/Monster fusions
>>55771746shit, that's really recent
>>55772301>>55772877I'm honestly surprised that's the best one YGO has to offer
>>55771021Yugioh win this one. Combine with spinosaurus is a clever way of refresh the archetype.
>>55774284Yokai watch really want to push that cat to dragon quest's slime level. But they are not creative at all.

>>55776438I hope next gen we get Minotaurs. Gf missed a huge chance with Paldean Tauros.
>>55776552Every time I post this, somebody insists that Miltank is a Minotaur, which to be fair isn't as much of a stretch as Yokai Watch's
Rare case where both Pokemon and Digimon are the only franchises lacking
>>55776819Also a rare case where Yokai Watch absolutely mogs
>>55776839Here is her other form
>>55746884DMG is more iconic than shittivoir will ever be
>>55776819Tangela beta name
>>55776675why is the YKW one sexy looking? Is it supposed to be Hathor?
>>55776819I always thought that the Megas were a way to complement the lack of some mythological monsters.M Mawile - GorgonM Absol - SphynxM Houndoom - Cerberus
>>55776911That's not just a localized name, but a localized name that was never actually used. What does Tangela even share with Medusa other than having wiggly things on its head?>>55777286Now this I can at least kind of see.
>>55777828Yo-Kai Watch, plain and simply
>>55775511>>55775783Yugioh is the only one that's not a pair?
>>55778266Nah, the Megami Tensei, Dragon Quest, and Yokai Watch ones are also unrelated to each other.
>>55749372Yugioh has a few more based on this.
>>55749307>>55778313I originally thought this was an indian statue because of the name Maharaghi.
>>55778266The thing is there is a pair for the moon one in YGO he just didn't use itAlso the SMT one could have two counterparts if he went with Amaterasu for the sun one but I don't think she has a sun directly in her design even if she is the goddess of the sun
>>55778322Yeah, I went for just what felt the most sun or moon to me, though I love how much Inti and Tsukuyomi look like counterparts despite them meant to being gods from different sides of the globe. I chose Helios over Yugioh's Inti because I though she looked like she would be a good wife for SMT's Inti.
>>55778343I think it's weird that the Helios card being demale despite Helios being a male God. The sex of the sun and moon God varries among cultures. In roman and greek mythology the sun God is male and the moon God female while in slavic and germanic mythogy the sun God is female and the moon God is male. Japan also has the sun Goddess Amaterasu and the moon God Tsukuyomi.In most cultures the sky God is male and the earth God female but in ancient egyptian mythology the sky God is female and the earth God male.Yugioh also has a Tsukuyomi card that could have been used. I thought for some time that Tsukuyomi was female because the artwork makes him look very effeminate.
>>55772714The Yugioh dog looks like it comes from a Tim Burton movie.
>>55778804I would've picked Roserade, but is nice to see Roselia too.
>>55777286nah, that's the futa-kuchi onna, well mitsu-kuchi onna now
>>55778505>>55778175wtf why are you picking the stock art from 99'?Also there are better options in both categories>t-rexdinorexmonrusttyrannomon>CertopiansBastilliodonBabycerasaurusDark Driceratopsultimate brachiomonany of gamamon's evolutions, I mean holyshit manthat's so bad I might even fix it myself.
>>55779088>wtf why are you picking the stock art from 99'?You mean the classic Digimon art? Why would I not? It's a fantastic art style that helps Digimon stand out among the other franchises.>Also there are better options in both categoriesI like to choose based on what best represents the franchise, what best fits into the theme, and partially based on personal preference. (usually in that order)Let me go over why I chose each one over the ones your brought up.>dinorexmonDespite its name, it doesn't really scream T-Rex over any other theropod to me, especially raptors. Also Tyranomon was in the original V-pet and was originally intended as a mascot over Greymon, so I think Tyranomon's spot doesn't need second guessing.>rusttyrannomonIt's a robot T-Rex, so it would feel out of place among fleshy ones, especially with actual flesh and blood T-Rexes to choose. Also it's highly detailed, even for a Digimon so it would look bad shrunk down to fit the image. >BastilliodonAggron simply outranks it in age, better representing Pokemon as a franchise, and personal preference.>Babycerasaurus>Dark DriceratopsI generally go with more classic Yugioh cards because I feel like they had a more unified art style back then. Nowadays their cards feel like they could have come from just about any franchise, which is fine, but when given the choice, I'm going with the classics the just scream Yugioh to me. >ultimate brachiomonWas not even considered because that's clearly a fucking sauropod.>any of gamamon's evolutions, I mean holyshit manYou have no idea how close I was to choosing WezenGammamon. Ultimately I chose Triceramon, because I think it's a really cool and underrated Digimon, but I think you are absolutely right here. WezenGammamon absolutely fits in better, both as a representation of ceratopsians and of Digimon as a franchise. That said, If you want to make your own, please do. These threads can always use more content.
>>55776675SMTIV had a lot of shitty guest designs, but that Minotaur is peak. It's a damn shame we haven't gotten him in any of the later games.
>>55779237I mean, putting 4 aside, the minotaur only appeared in the Mega CD version of SMT 1.There's also another game, but for that you have to go to Micon City, on the 8th floor of the Daedalus Tower, and the first thing you must do is reach the bottom to find him.
>>55779223>>55779223>Aggron simply outranks it in age, better representing Pokemon as a franchise, and personal preference.I mean it has the shield face more so than anything. Aggron doesn't even look like certopian in the slightest>. Nowadays their cards feel like they could have come from just about any franchise,Well they are going for more themes nowadays then back in the 00's; but still just better than a plain cercoptian >Was not even considered because that's clearly a fucking sauropod.And Triceramon is a Theropod with Ceratopsian skull.For my mine here me out...>RhyhornAnd no it doesn't look fuck all like a rhino it looks more like a ceratopsian than anything.>shinmegami/devil childrenjust a better pic of behemoth>digimonwas going to pick ultimate brachiomon, but there was going to be bitching. Triceramon is a Sauropod/kaiju with a ceratopsian face, canoweismon is a dragon with one.>dragon questsame one just with better art, also is a turtle/ceratopian>yugiohis a parrot/ceratopsian was going to pick the wrestler, but that was a tad too generic
>>55779583Ooh, pretty cool picks.I like Rhyhorn’s inclusion. I didn’t consider that, but it works. It really is more of a ceratopsian in design and probably was originally designed as such.
>>55779264Minotaur was the first boss of the original Megami Tensei game, with Medusa as the second. SMTIV was the most overt reference to them, but the older games used to call back to them all the time.
>>55780833wow, look at that!! I really like what Dragon Quest did here.
>>55780833Nozuchi isn't a mammoth, in fact, it's actually the same thing as Slimamander here>>55755274
>>55780883I know. Back when I made it I was weirdly insistent on having everything represented. I figured since it was brown, fuzzy, and had an elephant trunk it was close enough.
>>55780934Ah, fair enough
>>55748410>absolute beast in terms of powerwhat is the digimon power scaling like because i imagine it's as bullshit over the top as the evolutions>t. never played digimon
>>55780939>what is the digimon power scaling likeLet's not go that way, lest we attract "that" autist
>>55780934I really like all of them, but Pokemon is leaving a sour spot there, I meant I get it but still.... is there a train theme one? >>55780939I don't know how to respont without ruining this thread.>i imagine it's as bullshit over the top as the evolutionslet's say yes and call it a day.
>>55778804Pic related as DQ rep would have been more fitting
>>55781326>is there a train theme one? I tried.
>>55781743No carkol for pokemon?
>>55780833>>55780654We got way better elephants/mammoths in yugioh my guy, that looks like something I would have drawn in sixth grade.>>55780934Same with tanks, wtf is this ?>>55778175fixed, yeah I know it's a beast wars promotion and it's just Megatron, but still
>>55781751fuck no, they pulled a bitch move and made it a coal kaiju instead of a train. It could have been leagues better
>>55781779Medabots is actually Beast Wars' Megatron?
>>55781848yes! They have both optimous prime and primal too
>>55781779Yeah, I honestly am not sure what I was thinking with that Yugioh elephant. I think it was something to do with that card being OP or something.
>>55781850I knew thay had a Digimon collab but Transformers too?man, Pokemon will never get any good collab that is not outside nintendo stuff.on that note, I still can not believe this is a real image of a digimon collab
>>55781891Closest good collab is Smash Bros.
>>55781891Digimon gets pimped out to a lot of Asian-market games that people in the west will never know. Presumably is in a good spot between nostalgia and license cheapness.
>>55782243Imagine if Digimon crossovers with Palworld. The guns would be MANDATORY.
>>55781891Yeah, Medabots has a fuckton of collabs right now. Gundam, Megaman, Zoids, Eva, etc
>bump limit reachedmight as well as spam these while the thread's still up
>>55782423I don't think Pokémon gets destroyed harder in any other category by all of the other franchises than this one
>>55782398>Dominatrixyou for kids
>>55782481Filename should be renamed to "ticks_and_mites"
someone post a new one
>>55782988Can't. Image limit has been reached.
>>55782996no i mean a new thread :D
