is there actually a good fakemon that could pass as real in a pokemon game. Every single one I've seen looks like crap.
>>59164643
>>59164761you clearly haven't seen many fakemon then. Go look at some of the previous threads.
>>59164761when i first saw this turtle fakemon, i was out of the loop for pokemon for a few gens and it looked real to me. it looks more like a pokemon than drednaw
>>59164880Weird. I like this one, but I dislike the nearest counterpart among the official Pokémon. Maybe it would look worse as a 3d model.
>>59164880>mega feraligator, but better execution
>>59164880Mega FlygonType: Ground/DragonAbility: Arena TrapHP: 80ATK: 160 (+60)DEF: 110 (+30)SpATK: 110 (+30)SpDEF: 110 (+30)SPD: 50 (-50 like Mega Scolipede)
>>59165006With a few tweaks, it could work as a Drednaw evo
>>59165615Not Jumpruff?
Here's one of the regional bird lines for Plum/Bamboo's dex. It's a version exclusive to Bamboo. You see, each version takes place in a specific season, winter in the case of Bamboo's. As such, Plum will take place in the summer. So, what would sound like a good basis for pic related's Plum-exclusive counterpart?

>>59165787ovenbird -> firehawk -> harpy's eaglecould throw in some south american facepaint motifs to mirror the winterwear look of this fella. Could also have this line carry a tool.
>>59165853Sounds good...But I was thinking of something that fits the setting which is Kitakami.
>>59165787I like when exclusive counterparts are known to be direct rivals, like Zangoose/Seviper, even if the typings don't clash. Maybe some sort of bug type or maybe even a beachy themed water type could be cool. I really like the designs for your bird
>>59165949Thanks. Also, there will be 2 regional bug lines that are also version exclusives.Plum: CicadaBamboo: Woolly aphids (referred to as “snow bugs” in Japan)
>>59165890mons of a region don't need to fit it perfectly. kangaroo in kanto etc etcyou could look at the ainu for inspo maybe if you want to then
>>59165926sex with #62 FUTOR
>>59166120I was thinking of either of the followingCuckoo (Hototogisu)Nightjar (Yotaka)Bush Warbler (Uguisu)Japanese Paradise Flycatcher (Sankouchou - pic related)
>>59164761Too close to Scizor and other UBs and doesn't follow the UB design formula the best
>>59165894Too close to Samurott
>>59166892You can do what you want man. what type would you make em? and is the snow bird ice/flying?
>>59164643The Bug/Dragon ... someday it will be real ... our time will come bugbros ...
>>59165926What am I looking at here?
>>59166976>Pokemon USA>a bunch of new designs made in a similar style to gen 1 sprites and/or artworkNot much to misunderstand, I would think. It's "what if pokemon but american".
He did what he had to do.
>>59166946Cuckoo - Normal/FlyingNightjar - Dark/FlyingParadise flycatcher - Psychic/FlyingAnd yes, the snow bird is Ice/Flying (the evolutions at least)
>>59167001After some thinking, I'm going cross out the nightjar, since Hoothoot is going to be in the dex.
>>59165006>pokemonThat shit looks like a monster hunter monster that someone slapped sugimori eyes on
>>59165777Jesus this shits on both Baxcaliburs
>>59165926>only firenant evolves twice>presto and glubbo barely change compared to their first stage, but the same is true between firenack and firenoutAt that point why not just have all 3 starters be two-stage lines? You can remove firenack, make firenant evolve directly into firenout, and then use that empty slot to give spyder a proper evo. Also>spyder is literally just spinarakBut I love that color scheme, reminds me of how halloween decorations look under ultraviolet light.Parstic, creace and skulder are fucking kino. Flychomp is genuinely better than carnivine.
Fairy type Shuppet & Banette based off of superheroes.
>>59164761Most official Pokemon do as well, until they “grow on you”.
>>59166900Wdym, it looks nothing like Samurott? Is it because it has whiskers?
Sometimes I don't like coming to these threads as I'll see a cool fakemon that immediately invalidates something I was going to work on. Like I wanted a zebra muscle fakemon. So I was thinking of a regional Shellder with a black and white shell. Evolves into a clump of Shellder in the vague shape of a knight, big shell for a shield and a tongue as a sword. But then I see something like this in one of the threads that does the idea, but better! I can't pretend I haven't seen this, and any attempt to go back to the drawing board and redesign my idea just looks like it. Same with the regional Spearow that evolves into a crane. Love the idea, wish I had come up with it independently.
Dokurashi, the Prickly Pin Pokémon.The quills that cover this Pokémon are tipped with a deadly neurotoxin. As such, even Ursaring steer clear from it.
>>59167201multiple designs based on the same concept is a good thing, not a bad thing. Just go for it. Two cakes.
>>59167196The silhouette is very very close in multiple places
>>59167000Literally just Darkrai for the final form
>>59167377>very very closeIt has whiskers, a pointy snout and is quadrupedal, that’s kind of where the similarities start and end. The actual silhouette is completely different.
This should have been the Mega Evolution to Blastoise. Water/Steel
>>59167144>>presto and glubbo barely change compared to their first stage, but the same is true between firenack and firenoutSo just like Gen 1, huh?
>>59165894
>>59168179
>>59167555Blastoise in general should be water steel considering it has water jets mounted on it.
>>59165787I'll rebel against two 3 stage bird lines and suggest the Ryukyu Flying Fox, giant bat from Japan, but actually lean into the Fox aspect of the design, make it sly and mischievous while the snow owl is intelligent and serious
>>59168328Clever
>>59165926Looks like something I'd see in a Beckett Pokemon magazine in the mid to late 2000s
>>59165926I like how Dragonite is the only OG deemed fit for the USA audience
>>59167708No excuse to have fire-starter favoritism (and no the irony is not lost on me)
>>59167387>Same body curve>Whiskers >Horn(s)Same look in the face as well
>>59167113...so a good pokemon?
>>59168858
>>59165926Where is the pikachu thats a big titty tiger?
>>59168183I like this one
I love Lockstin's starter trio

>>59170559
>>59170565
>>59165894I liked this much better when I thought it was a standalone mon and not part of a nueevee
>>59165787Doesn’t The Teal Mask’s story take place in the summer, hence the festival?
These are two of my Mightyena cross-gen evo concepts.The first one by BastionPhoenix was originally Dark/Ground, but I felt it was way too close to Krookodile functionally.The second one by an_artist_astray was originally pure Dark, but I wanted to give it a secondary typing.So I made some edits to the designs to give them different secondary typings.Which redesign do you all like best, and which typing do you think is more fitting?>Dark/RockThis one is actually unedited. Rock just worked as an easy substitution for Ground.Dark/Rock is only used by Tyranitar. The combo sucks on paper, but would it be good on a ~100 Speed attacker?>Dark/SteelTurned the bones into steel plating. I really like the jaw with this one since hyenas have insane bite strength.It also works thematically since hyenas are highly resistant to diseases, and Steel is immune to Poison.>Dark/FairyClosest to the original, just changed the tint on the red fur and made it glow a bit. Would actually glow in-game when attacking, too.Hyenas are nocturnal hunters, Fairy is associated with the moon, and the inspiration is the folklore/fairy tale of the Beast of Gévaudan.>Dark/PoisonHyenas are also scavengers that eat carrion. What if eating enough tainted mean allowed it to harness that "tainted" part as a typing?Would also play well into how hyenas are resistant to diseases, and Poison resists Poison, plus it would absorb Toxic Spikes.All four concepts would swap the Quick Feet ability for Strong Jaw, since hyenas have crazy bite strength and Mightyena knows plenty of biting moves.And to pair with the new ability, all would get a signature biting move that matches its secondary typing for a new STAB option. Open to suggestions there.Open to discussion on which concept you all think is best, or if you have other suggestions.
