#Infinite Fusion

[justahusk]

I wasn't planning on posting today, but the Pokémon Infinite Fusion owner/dev just decided to use generative AI. To some people this blatant disregard for the wishes of the artists working for PIF might seem surprising, so I felt like I should clear some stuff up: they've always been like this. Please read this.

Please share this. I'll respond to any questions to the best of my abilities. I also apologize for making this post out of 8 images, but for some other platforms I'm on I can get my message across better this way.

THROWBACK to April Fools last month where I let Dusk, my Aegislash, take over my Patreon Server and drew nothing but Aegilash fusions all stream long while playing the soundtrack to "Swords Art Online" 😎

The original pixel fusions are all from the Infinite Fusion Calculator! :D They have SO many awesome custom sprites for Aegislash!!! 👀 | Patreon |

🎃Pumpkaboo Fusions🎃

Gourgeist | Gengar | Trubbish | Paldean Wooper

Get ready to see a lot more Pumpkaboo fusion concepts! I'm working on these as part of a new streaming series with me (TrashBatChar) & AloxVT, where he plays through Pokemon Infinite Fusion & I draw Pokemon fusions as he makes them. The Pumpkboos are what I work on when there isn't a game fusion to draw.

I am open to requests for future Pumpkaboo fusions, but cannot guarantee I will get to them all .

So not a lot of people know this but we're actually one of the sprite artists for Pokemon Inifinite Fusion! Here are some of my favorite sprites I've done.

Edit: Please use the Pokedex to check out alternate sprites! Lots of artists put time and effort into extra shinys, joke sprites, and completely different sprites! A lot of people seem to not know about this feature! There is also a new art gallery in goldenrod city in the row of houses under the train station in the newest update (5.1.3.2)! A new artist sprite collection is featured every in game day with their discord username for credit! Artists names are also now displayed in the Pokedex where you can change the sprite!

Update: Pokémon Infinite Fusion will cease the use of AI-generated dex entries, as well as work on automating sprite removal (the message in the third image comes from PIF staff chats and has not been made public)!

Thank you all so much for making this possible. I never imagined the reaction that my previous post would end up getting. Again, thank you guys for supporting and standing with the artists in the community.

The popularity of this post also caused some misconceptions, so I want to correct those while I'm at it, but it's not a necessity to read it all.

Happy holidays to everyone that came together to help us out!
