>>55783024Old thread is max image, so let's get started again.This time we've got swarm
>>55784186Oh common peeps, I gotta pull all the weight?
>>55785106Maybe I'll post some but it's shit everyone's seen before
>>55784186
>>55784186dolphin
>>55785475Were you too ashamed to use Hero Palafin for this? Not that I blame you.
leviathan
>>55784186Dragon Quest > Pokemon > DigimonI've never been fan of Starmons, also I glad you didn't use Exeggcute, I am even less fan of that
>>55784186Would a template that includes Monster Hunter Stories (or just Monster Hunter in general) work?
>>55786165probably for animals but not a lot of themeshonestly yeah would be cool to see
>>55786186They've been doing a lot more "themed" designs recently, Rise and Sunbreak especially introduced pretty much exclusively youkai and mythology influenced designs
>>55786246truepersonally i dislike that direction, feel like they made better pokemonwould still be cool to include themwhat themes are represented?vampiressamuraikappawerewolf
>>55786246>>55786325wait would seltas fit in with mechas?
>>55784186Yo-Kai Watch DOES have a design that's multiple entities together (kinda)
>>55784186>>55786458There's also these guys too. And a third off the top of my head names Nosirs, but I don't want to spam.
template
>>55784186King of the Skull Servants is mechanically more like Houndstone or Basculegion with Last Respects
>>55786330Ahtal Neset would be a better fit
Wolves
>>55786659add monster hunter tho this!
>>55786559The Digimon ones always reminds me of Burger time 2.
>>55786540Here's a template with MonHun if anybody wants to give it a whirl
>>55786659The Garurumon with the Gabumon horn looks cool
>>55786965this is the first time I see that Digimon, I like it a lot. also what is up with Medabots?
I like pokemon the most most because the creatures look closer to being animals, and Shin Megami too because it pulls off the monsters being supernatural monsters than the others in my opinion.
>>55787057Technically it's not a Digimon, but an enemy from Digimon World RE: Digitize, which is a shame because it has an excellent design and even a pretty cool evolution. The Medabot is only in a single game, which like most Medabots games, has only been released in Japan and most of its bots don't have official art.
>>55787098damn it! that looks awesome as well, a freaking Cyber Godzilla!
>>55787152and this is its final form
>>55787183and its a waifu on top of that! it have it all!pet, monster, waifu, what else can a man ask for?
>>55786659fixed that.>>55786458>>55786463NOT MULTIPLE, SWARM..... Starmons is a swarm, Falinks is many, so is king of skull serverant, for dragon quest I couldn't fine one of the slime horde.>>55786559you need to update your yugioh lexicon my guy, there have been a ton of monsters released that better fit the theme of each one.>>55786618>Venasaur >toadThere are many toad elements and gen 1 pokemon are often an amagolation of animals/kaiju etc.; but no toad is going to have claws,ears or rough skin like that guy.
>>55787522>body like a toad>warts like a toad>poisonous like a toad>moves like a toad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRUA4Blw_ecVenusaur is a goddamn toad. I would even go as far as calling it the toadiest of all Pokemon. You're not going to say Blastoise isn't a tortoise because it has mammalian ears and cannons, right?
>>55787522>fixed that.Thanks
Burger Pokemon when?
>>55785570>>55786659You fuckers know nothing about Yokai Watch and it shows.
>>55787661that one is closer to a shisha than a wolf my guy
>>55787661ok, that leviathan is awesome
>body like a toadShow me a toad with rhino/esque feet or clawed feet.>warts like a toadThose are warts?Seems more scaled>poisonous like a toadAlways assumed that was the plant, almost every gen1 grass type was poisonous with the exception of Parasect, ExeggutorandTangela>moves like a toadThat's recent Nu-slop,stop acting like a fat white girl in a pink diaper.>Blastoise isn't a tortoise because it has mammalian earsMany gen 1 pokemon were more amalgmations than and general kaiju that one specific animal>rhydonCeratopsian, rhino?>NidokingKaiju Bargon, but looked like an amalgmiation of a rabbit, rhino, and with reptilian features>SlowbroSazae Oni, combined with salamander, otter, and a bunch of other things.>AlakazamMamon, combined with a reptile and foxThey aren't just one thing, my guy.
>>55787680>Show me a toad with rhino/esque feet or clawed feet.By body I mean torso and legs. Outside of its feet and ears, everything about Venusaurs body is toad-like.>Those are warts? Seems more scaledLooks like warts to me.>That's recent Nu-slop,It is still official Pokemon media>Many gen 1 pokemon were more amalgmations than and general kaiju that one specific animalGood then we can agree Venusaur is an amalgamation of a toad and some other stuffAlso>According to Ken Sugimori in a Japanese interview that was discussing the Pokémon franchise in general, Venusaur was inspired by frogs. When asked to describe the basis of the design behind the Bulbasaur evolutionary line, Sugimori had stated that it was "a creature that is something like a frog." In another interview, Sugimori described the origin and the basic themes of the original starter Pokémon: "The experience of keeping small animals such as frogs (Bulbasaur), lizards (Charmander), and baby turtles (Squirtle) as pets gives the game a sense of reality and makes it easier to get into the game. I realized it might be difficult to make an emotional connection if the first partner Pokémon is a tough-looking character."
>>55787719>Outside of its feet and ears,Eyes aren't on the top of it's head and has fangs>Looks like warts to me.nah>It is still official Pokemon mediathey fucked up many things recently Sugamori doesn't even get a say anymore.>>According to Ken Sugimori I want to see that in japanese or I am calling bullshit.back on topic, gatai mech
>>55787680>Those are warts?>Seems more scaledBulbasaur and its evolutions are amphibians those are warts
>>55787750>I want to see that in japanese or I am calling bullshit.https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/creator-profile-the-creators-of-pikachuNot in Japanese, but is the official Pokemon website good enough for you?
>>55787771>https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/creator-profile-the-creators-of-pikachuThat could be white wash for all we know, there is alot they tried to cover up or are not knowledgeable of .
>>55787750I don't even care for Shoutmon X4 or any of the Shoutmon forms but Digimon completely mogs the others here. Kinda makes me appreciate Shoutmon in a way.
>>55787680designs that are 1 to 1 with an animal suck assso I would say that yes he is a toad even though there are some creative liberties
>>55787787> don't even care for ShoutmonLiterally the best partner of any monster series except for maybe Whispered; is it because of the shitty dub?
>>55787804Never watched the dubbed, just subbed while it was airing. Didn't like the toyetic designs (but it's still better than the toyetic designs in other Mon shows at least). Also didn't like most of the characters.. Shoutmon's okay personality-wise but not my favorite type of personality. I have an autistic attachment to Digimon so I watch every season fully even if I don't end up liking the season.
>>55787912>Didn't like the toyetic designsthey are robots who combine, whuddya want?>Also didn't like most of the characters..they were way better than adventure, that's for sure. Each digimon had backstory and character development as opposed to being supplement to some kid. Also the OST was banging
>>55786559
Don't know enough about the other three to know if there's anything fitting in them
>>55787922why do yw and ygo have the same pic
Might have gone a bit overboard.
>>55788028>>55788030was a card in yugioh, and was in yokai watch.
>>55788346common now, we can do better than that for digimon!hookmon/olegmon
>>55788346I know Hookmon's kinda silly but I love him. Monmon's my favorite rookie after all.
>>55788415Nah. I like Hookmon more. He has a cannon arm, a hidden face with only his single eye visible, and a cool pirate hat with an Agumon skull. Olegmon just can't compete with that, besides he's more of a viking than a pirate anyways.
>>55788415>>55788436it's not that, gotta put the best foot forward and set everything on an even level. I mean someone where is picking super old yugioh cards that are going to look really shitty up against the other stuff.
>>55787922>>55788041That lucifer is a collab with another game, use Yugioh's actual lucifer next time
>Frontier>ReburstAnything like these for any of the others?I guess the Big Five in that one filler arc of YGO, but can't think of anything for the others
>>55789359>I guess the Big Five in that one filler arc of YGOthat one duel between Joey and Vallon fits more 2bhI know there's a season of YW they become the yokais. For SMT maybe Digital Devil saga?
Quick! Someone make a punk rock one
>>55789371Right, DDS, don't know how I forgot that oneAnd yeah, you're right about Joey vs Valon
>>55788672Nah. Just go with the mons you like best.Newer =/= better.
>>55789398>And yeah, you're right about Joey vs ValonCapsule Monsters filler arc could fit too
>>55789375oh man, I was really hoping Beelstarmon to have some sort of protagonism.on other news I hope we learn this little fellow name soon
>>55790112GAPPO GAPPO VIVA OLEGNA
How about classic folktales? Wukong, Kaguya-hime, Momotaro, just to name a few examples
Do skellies if you haven't already, Yokai Watch has that kino Gashadokuro boss
>>55785365Morrie is the best Dragon Quest character in general, this isn't fair to the others
>>55790891wukong
Fishfreaks
>>55790891Kaguya (and bamboo for franchises that lack Kaguyas)
>>55791061wtf is the smt one supposed to be?
>>55791087Persona's Kaguya and Devil Children's KaguyaMainline SMT doesn't have a Kaguya so I figured two spin-off would do.
Going to post what monsters from monster hunter can fit heremouse is broken so someone else add plz>>55784186Velociprey?>>55785570Ceadeus >>55786618Tetsucabra >>55786659either Zinogre or the Orugarons>>55787413Lagiacrus >>55787750Athal Ka or Seltas>>55787912Nakarkos >>55790958Rajang>>55790988Maybe Zamtrios?>>55791061Inagami thats all I can think of

>>55790634Lightenna or just Hornetaur >>55790112Ceadeus
>>55792450Iron Valiant?
>>55792467Shit, I didn't think of that.
>>55792299Kulu Ya Ku>>55792450>>55792494Velkhana
>>55792889would Beotodus fit here?
>>55793173No
>>55793173Lagombi would be a better fit
there are a ton of medarot that fit this, but I don't feel like editing
>>55793989
>>55793989Why is yugioh exa-stag when everything else is a rhinoceros beetle?
>>55792889Hee-Ho wins, easy
Well, if anyone ever wants to make a Cernunnos one, half of the spots are filled
>>55786901>>55791132I got to be honest, I don’t think Monster Hunter is a great fit for these. Mostly because, as far as I’m aware, it lacks official 2D art for most of its monsters. Its the same thing holding Monster Rancher back.
>>55795050The digimon one....One day they will actually draw the CD Drama mons.... One day.
Could not, for the life of me, find any SMT/Persona/Demikids demon that even resembles a pufferfishCrazy that theyve never had a fish/aquatic family in any game, feels like a no brainer
>>55795811They all have official renders, which I'd argue is better than 2D art would be for comparison to other monster-based franchises because it properly represents the aesthetic of the series and demonstrates what makes it stand out
>>55794631>Hydramonquick, someone make a genitaliamon one
>>55795908Well are there any myths that involve a pufferfish you can think about?
>>55795908>>55796384Ebisu is associated with pufferfish and has a demikids appearance, but it is a stretch
SMT was hard again, not that many fishes it seems
>>55797581Yeah, SMT's mythology focus makes kinda sucky when it comes to things like fish and bugs.
>>55797581>>55797815Maybe Demikids? I remember finding a fish demon when I checked a drawer, and a question appeared. One internet search later, I got that fish.
>>55797580I'll never forgive Game Freak for dropping the ball so hard with the British Isles region and not introducing a ton of folklore-inspired mons
>>55797580Blacephalon?
>>55796214
>>55787750where tf is shoutmon's left arm
>>55799279Shit, that works.
>>55800203Xingtianmon might work better since Skullknightmon still has his head on
Dang, I knew I was forgetting something
>>55789375Jeez, didn’t impmon just get a new evolution line a year ago?
>>55802114nah he got an ultimate (perfect stage) in baalmon and an alternate beelzamon in 2010, and a female variant evolving from ladydevimon in which also had an x-evolution
>>55803219He also got Lianpumon and his evolutions
>>55786659Why are all the wolves blue themed?
>>55787222 a burger.
>>55803250thankfully we have plenty to choose from>>55787640
>>55803264That hamburger episode from Digimon Frontiers gave me some sort of food kink with burgers. Whenever i make one, i must make it to the utmost perfection so that i can one day make one as good as what i saw.
>>55803518>Theres no Tanuki digimonThats kinda crazy
>>55803698Closest is Coordemon I guess
Figured I'd give the Monster Hunter template a shot
>>55790844what is stonetoss doing in yokai watch??
>>55805152>>55805364fatcats >INB4 BarbamonHe is greed as a whole, not a money maker.
>>55804541omg monster hunter :D
>>55784186What about this?
>>55806532Now this comparison would be interesting
>>55806532give me a sec, ill do one with spectrobes
>>55806532>>55808207There ya go
>>55808298>ShoeMy sides are bloody gone.
>>55806479wtf? >1Why not rillaboom?>2Optimus Primal has a metabot adaptation>3yugioh has way better gorillas>4Including monster hunter is sort of unfair, it's hyperreal and there is no official art. this is so bad I might fix it myself.
>>558087061. I like Slaking more2. The point of these is to compare how different franchise handle similar concepts. Using crossover characters defeats the entire point.3. That's just like your opinion, man4. Really not a big deal.
bikes
>>55808725
>>55808926Why did you remove the SMT one? Also hes right, whats the point of including a crossover one in a comparison pic?
>>55808706>Including monster hunter is sort of unfair, it's hyperreal So?>and there is no official artHow is that not official art?
>>55809107I prefer the other Moai Yugioh cards.
>>55809107>>55810014I remember this one because it was in a Structure Deck.
>>55803243Wolves are associated with ice
There's one for carnivorous plants?
>>55811508I have one for venus fly traps
>>55811508>>55811518and one for pitcher plants
>>55809940>So?It's on another level of detail my guy, it's not a match >How is that not official art?not a 3D model, offical 3D art my guy.>>55809928>Why did you remove the SMT one?Not a gorilla, a it's yeti. If you want to compare yetis, we can do that.> Also hes right, whats the point of including a crossover one in a comparison pic?Unfair, the gorilla placed for metabots was just an initial sprite made for gba in 19987, doesn't look good my guy. Also>yugioh has references to other gamesi.e. superbaseball baeball kid, tactical espinoge expert, and spyral quik-fik>yokai watch has special guests>digimon does too and many were recycled kaiju virtual pets during that periodcut the crap
>>55812007You are being very autistic about this
>>55812007>Unfair, the gorilla placed for metabots was just an initial sprite made for gba in 19987Uh, no. I used art from an app game released in 2020 (the same one Primal was in) for a bot from a PS1 game released in 1999. >Yugioh, Yokai Watch, and Digimon have guest characters tooYes, and they would be dumb to use for these too.
>>55812575forgot the pic.Still that's not great, giving the other series the clear edge.
>>55812626>Still that's not great, giving the other series the clear edge.I like him. He has chainsaw arms and is designed to look like he's always riding a unicycle. Personally, I like him more than any of Pokemon's gorillas. And even if I didn't like him, I would still use him or a different gorilla that actually originated from Medabots because the entire point of of these things is to show how different franchises handle the same concept. If anything using a guest mon for a franchise just makes the franchise look worse for having to resort to using another franchise's designs instead of letting the franchise stand on its own.
>>55812798>Medabots because the entire point of of these things is to show how different franchises handle the same conceptand to see who had the best execution.
>>55813932But can you even it call it an execution in the first place if it is not their own design?
>>55813982well it's not 1:1 to the initial optomus primal, just like their wargreymon and omnimon are a tad different.
>>55817383I love how in Digimon the Queen is big and powerful and the King rather short and weak looking, the same way in chess, there is even an animation from a mobila theme showing the Queen proctecting the King.
>>55818030based coomermon
>>55818629who?
>>55818669CyclomonHis right arm is 3 times the size of his left one
>>55817383newsflash, those are shitty dub names.>Komatanasmall piece katana>Kirikizanto slice up>Dodogezankneeling slash.So stop acting white
>>55815840also not palm tresshttps://hyakumonogatari.com/2012/06/03/jinmenju-the-human-face-tree/also stop acting white.
>>55819008Yeah, I know. It's kinda like insisting Venusaur isn't a toad but some kind of reptile because it has saur in its name. Somebody would insist I included them in the first place if I didn't. They are loosely themed after shogi pieces so you could just say it's about board games.>>55819018Are you talking about Exeggutor or SMT's Zaccoum?Because if you are talking about Exeggutor you are right in saying it's based on Jinmemju, but absolutely wrong in saying it's not a palm tree. Pokemon can be based on multiple things. How can you look at Exeggutor, especially its Alolan form and say it's not a palm tree???If you are talking about Zaccoum, you are wrong in calling it jinmenju. It's based on a tree that is supposed to grow in Islam's version of Hell. You would be probably right in saying it's not a palm tree, though. It's definitely a stretch. I just really like its design and thought it was palmy enough.
>>55819054>shogi pieces so you could just say it's about board games.but not chess. That's white cope.>Are you talking about Exeggutor or SMT's Zaccoum?Zaccoum, sure is fuck not a palm tree. Of Exeggutor course it's a palm tree, and so is the dq one but both are jinmenju. Toropiamon sure as fuck isn't either though.
>>55816272Should include Vaal Hazak in here
>>55787522>you need to update your yugioh lexicon my guy, there have been a ton of monsters released that better fit the theme of each one.King of Skull Servants isn't a particularly great example of a swarm
>TonosamaGekomon>SesimitoadCan someone do the rest or are these the only sound-themed frog mons?
>>55817383Wrong for Yugioh, it has a complete chess set in the Archfiend archetype.
>>55818994any reason for using Thetismon over Jellymon and TeslaJellymon?
>>55821052Neat!>>55821084No particular reason.
>>55821850We can do better than that
>>55824079What's your problem this time?
>>55824094I guess it is not his favorite sheep.
>>55824094I would have edited it myself but the way lay it out makes it difficult....>dragon questif you are using goats too, I would have used that one boss Bjørn or the goat verison of the saytr>DigimonI would have used Pajiramon>medarot not black ram?>yugiohscapegoats or crossheep
I'm shocked at the number of Medabots designs. Was the franchise much bigger in Japan than it was in America? I just remember a short anime and a couple of GBA games, with nowhere near this many niche designs.
>>55824334yeah, it continued for quite awhile, nothing got ported over though
>>55784186Digimon
>>55824250Those are some neat choices, but I think I am going to stick with what I have already chosen.As for Blackram, I already have a baphomet one.
