protosynthesis

[hoofpeet]

Paradox Zoroark, hisuian and unovan, two heads, four arms and only two legs, like conjoined twins, but with a melded splotchy fur pattern of black and white.

Maybe Ghost/Dark and called something along the lines of Wretched Duality (playing off the whole dragon of truth and dragon of ideals thing,)I’d imagine it’d be pretty big, like Tyranitar sized at least, it’d be funny if it kept its ability ’Illusion’ instead of protosynthesis but that would be unlikely,

ouuwwwuua cerberus zoroark ....they got mismashed together by a portal or smthn and guard spear pillar now

[seizurecubes-fakemon]

Wandering Star - paradox pokemon Type: psychic/fighting Ability: Protosynthesis

A mysterious creature that shares certain traits with Jirachi. It keeps its third eye open at all times, allowing it to grant itself infinite wishes. Since its mind is primitive and unimaginitive, these wishes only ever consist of aiding its physical strength.

Glory Box - paradox pokemon Type: steel/dark Ability: Quark Drive

A futuristic weapon designed somewhat like Jirachi. Nobody has figured out how to open its head yet, but analysis of its attacks suggests its payload is a highly destructive wish that will cause untold misfortune once free.

I know I'm late to this but I don't care :)

[cloverpatches]

Shrieking Echo, Dragon/Fairy Paradox Lati

Ability: Protosynthesis

A four-legged and four-winged Paradox Pokemon that specializes in climbing, swooping, and crashing its body onto prey at high speeds to immobilize them.

[angelicalchaoticabyss]

Name: Melodious Voice. Type: Psychic/Fairy. Gender: N/A. Evolution: None. Ability: Protosynthesis.

Paradox Pokemon.

Dex entry: This pokemon resembles a being known as Melodious Voice in an old expedition journal, it's voice was written to be able to control the hearts and minds of any living being that heard it sing. It has an uncanny resemblance to the mythical Pokemon Meloetta, hinting that it may be an ancient ancestor or previous form of the Pokemon years ago.

The Dinosaur/Extinct/Ancient Thing each Scarlet Paradox Pokemon is based on imo

As a dinosaur and pokemon nerd, I am compelled by a greater force (autism) to explain away the inspirations to each scarlet pokemon even if they're just a stretch.

Great Tusk- It took me a minute to realize this, but Donphan's paradox counterpart is obviously an Ankylosaur. While not based on the Ankylosaurus itself, Great Tusk does share elements of the dinosaur family such with its back plates with spikes. And while the Ankylosaur family do not have fur/feathers, giant trunks, or tusks, it is still evident by those back plates, that they are an inspiration. It could be argued that the facial structure of Great Tusk is just an exagerated and heavily mishapened Ankylosaurus. Its dumb but still.

Scream Tail- While at first, you might think that Scream Tail isn't based on anything as it is just a wilder version of the Jigglypuff we all know and love, if we take its lore into consideration then we can see that there is something to see. Scream Tail is based on the single-celled organisms that existed in our world. Now this is seemingly a stretch until you consider that in the pokemon world, this might have been when Mew was first started to branch off and adapt. This can be evidenced by Scream Tail's psychic typing as why else would it have psychic powers unless if it is a very close descendent of Mew.

Brute Bonnet- Now this is a really big stretch so here me out. Brute Bonnet is based on Pachycephalosaurs, aka the dome-headed dinosaurs. I say this because A) the spikes on its head that remind me of the spikes that surround the skull. B) Its aggressive demonstrated within the game as well as its level-up moveset which is reminiscent of how Pachycephalosaurs are often portrayed as aggressive in media. and C) the shape of its mouth is similar, not the exactly the same, but similar to the mouth shape of a pachycephalosaurus. Yes it is a stretch, but it makes to me.

Flutter Mane- This is obvious as it is mentioned in its lore, but Flutter Mane is a pterosaur. Sure, it is just a Misdreavus with elements of a pterosaur. No obvious design elements are implanted into this pokemon to make it seem like a particular pterosaur, so I am not compelled to say either or. Its like with the others, its reminiscent of a type of dinosaur, but very vague on which one. And I think thats the point to this pokemon. Because I've seen that when refering to Pteranodon, people usually say Pteradactyl. They're not wrong, they just may not realize that they are saying frog. Yes, there is a pterodactylus, but it isn't what the common people think of when they say pterodactyl, they're thinking of pteranodon.

Slither Wing- No doubt about this one, this is definitely a Stegosaurus that would give people with insectophobia nightmares. From the way it doesn't use its wings like wings to how it swings its tail in certain attack animations, this pokemon is definitely reminiscent of Stegosaurs. Sure, it doesn't have the thagomizer aka the tail spikes Stegosaurus has, but it does have a very thick tail. Another good explanation as to why Slither Wing is based on a Stegosaur is because of the theories on what Stegosaurus' backplates can do. They weren't built for defense as they are very fragile, and I can imagine the same for Silther Wing's wings. Some believe that they were used to regulate body temperature or that they could move in flapping motions like as we see with Slither Wing. I mainly bring that up because of Slither Wing having the ability protosynthesis and how its the paradox form of Volcarona who is revered as a sun god by some. Sure, all of the Scarlet paradoxes have that ability, but its worth mentioning.

Sandy Shocks- This is the most vaguely dinosaur-inspired pokemon I have ever seen, mostly because its Magneton which is a magnet pokemon. I initially thought it would be some kind of magneton sauropod (the long-necked dinosaurs) but I'm not entirely sure. You could consider the the long magnets on its bottom side as two pairs of legs, but you can also consider the magnets on its top head as its own pair of arms and its a brute bonnet situation. Its very vague. I initially believed it to be a sauropod so I'm going to go with that.

Roaring Moon- When I first saw this pokemon, I wasn't sure what it was aside from Mega Salamence. I want to say its Quetzalcoatlus because it has feathers, it flies so pterosaur, and its the big boss of the regular scarlet paradox pokemon so obviously a famous "dinosaur" needs to be picked. And when I did some research on Quetzalcoatlus' namesake, the Quetzalcoatl, and I learned that is considered he was related to the sun. So maybe Roaring Moon is a reverse of that?

Winged King/Koraidon- One may look at Koraidon and think that it is just a basic dinosaur mixed with a dinosaur bike from the Flintstones cartoon and Toothless from HTTYD. However, my eyes sees differently. I see a combination of Iguanodon, Tyrannosaurus, and raptors as well as reptiles like the chameleon. I say this because The first drawings of Iguanodon appear similar to Koraidon. Its just a fatter and bulkier version of the same animal, but red, and with feathers. Iguanodon is also one of the first discovered dinosaurs, and its one of the first Paradox pokemon we meet. Its name, Winged King, is somewhat reminiscent of the Tyrannosaurus Rex's translated name "Tyrant Lizard King". Then theres raptors, specifically, Jurassic Park's Velociraptors. They are often depicted as incredibly smart and social, being able to form groups with each other and coordinate. There is also a distinct difference between the raptors of Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. In JP, they are more violent and predatory while in JW, they are considerably more domesticated as seen with Blue the Velociraptor. But they are still violent predators. I mention this because of the two Koraidon we see in Pokemon Scarlet. The one the player has is reminiscent of Blue the Velociraptor since its kinder while the other Koraidon is more equal to the Big One from Jurassic Park which is meaner. Also in Jurassic Park /// there are Velociraptors with sparce feathering which is akin to Koraidon's feathers which aren't as sparce but still.

Walking Wake- Visually, its a theropod version of suicune with a lion's mane. However, I think its a reference to both raptors and cryolophosaurus. Cryolophosaurus is a big meat-eating dinosaur with a crest on its head. There are also many other dinosaur species that have crests. Dilophosaurus and Monolophosaurus are just to name a few. But Cryolophosaurus is picked because of its name and origin. Its name means Ice-crested lizard and it was named that because its fossil was found around the antarctic. If we take a look at Walking Wake's crest, it is visually made of ice, or at least a hard rocky material thats blue. And Suicine has always been associated with the ice type being the associated with the Northwind and such, but it isn't actually ice type.

Gouging Fire- It is very obvious what type of dinosaur Gouging Fire is. It is a ceratopsian (The Triceratops family) like Styracosaurus and others similar to it. However, it isn't just a ceratopsian, in fact its arguable that it is part stegosaurus because of the plates on its backside. Thats right, Gouging Fire is kind of a hybrid dinosaur, referencing the Stegoceratops from Jurassic World's deleted content, Jurassic World the Game and Jurassic World: Evolution. Of course, this part is a stretch, but its notable to mention. Also, unrelated but I love how its smoke creates its tail. Very creative design choice.

Raging Bolt- Like before, it is very obvious that this pokemon is a sauropod, but unlike Gouging fire and Cryolophosaurus, it is mixed with elements of several sauropods. It was mainly a titanosaur, having the long front legs of brachiosaurus and looking like a giraffe which is in reference to Giraffetitan...and Raikou. I also feel like the choice to make raikou be the long-necked dinosaur was done because of Brontosaurus' history as a dinosaur. Brontosaurus has been accidentally mixed with Apatosaurus and I don't know if its still considered a valid species or not because I've heard it be said that Brontosaurus is a real dinosaur and then it isn't, its just apatosaurus, but then it is its own species. Its very confusing. And the reason why I say this is because its a paradox, its fitting, and because Bronto means thunder. Side note, I hate its tail, it does not balance its body unless that tail is really dense. New headcanon: Raging Bolt is a dwarf star.

RAGING BLAZE

Paradox Pokemon FIRE / FLYING {DRAGON} Ability: Protosynthesis

Its wings are too small to propel its large body alone. With the engine on its back, it flies at Mach speed.

A dubious paranormal magazine suggests that it's an ancient ancestor of Reshiram. No fossils have been found to support this claim.

hey, my name is valentino - but some people just call me val. i was born and raised in galar, having come from the isle of armour specifically. i attend naranja-uva academy. i’m also an exchange student at the blueberry academy and am part of the league club there.

i am a champion within the paldea region, as well as a black-belt dojo trainee back at home. i live with my three sisters, though i highly doubt they’ll join rotumblr. i’m just here to blog random shit tbh, so don’t expect much from me.

ME~

male (he/him)

pansexual & ambiamorous

born & raised in the isle of armour, galar; currently live at the outskirts of the south province (area four)

son of dojo master mustard & dojo matron honey; black-belt of the master dojo

taken <3 marcy & arven

THE TEAM~

fuilech the seviper - ♂- ✨

poison

tera fire

leftovers

infiltrator

adamant (+ attack / - special attack)

poison jab / coil / ice fang / fire fang

i found him fighting a zangoose in south province area one, and he ended up being injured (though he did win). i patched him up afterwards, and we ended up getting along beautifully - so, i took him in and added him to the team. he’s definitely a trickster, constantly causing mischief. he loves being up on my shoulders whenever he’s out, i think it makes him feel powerful haha.

aurelia the hydrapple - ♀- ✨

grass dragon

tera steel

loaded dice

supersweet syrup

serious (no effect)

bullet seed / fickle beam / recover / tera blast

i discovered her as an applin whilst training in tagtree thicket, and i thought she was so adorable so i added her onto the team. she wasn’t going to be a part of my battle team, but i found out about the hydrapple evo line whilst at kitakami and one thing led to another. she’s a very sleepy pokémon, whenever i set up a picnic she’s asleep 90% of the time. she is also incredibly affectionate, debatably more affectionate than an arcanine.

koray the ursaluna - ♂

normal ground

tera normal

wide glasses

mind’s eye

modest (+ special attack / - attack)

blood moon / earth power / protect / hyper voice

i discovered him on accident whilst in kitakami’s timeless woods - i accedentally pissed him off, and after crayola swiftly defeated him he ended up joining the team. most of the others see him as a father figure, whilst he’s mated to ilayda and highly idolises crayola. he’s extremely hyper-vigilant, and is always the first to notice when something is wrong.

ilayda the primarina - ♀- ✨

water fairy

tera psychic

throat spray

liquid voice

modest (+ special attack / - attack)

sparkling aria / moonblast / hyper voice / psychic

ilayda actually found us as a popplio, when the rest of the team was having a picnic and verena was dancing to my singing - ilayda joined in out of curiosity and excitement, and she hung out with us for our entire picnic before i ended up catching her and adding her to the team. she and koray are mated partners, and she’s seen as the mother figure to almost everyone else. she loves being given attention, and loves showing off.

verena the bombirdier - ♀- ✨

flying dark

tera rock

rocky helmet

rocky payload

jolly (+ speed / - special attack)

dual wingbeat / foul play / roost / rock slide

verena approached me whilst i was training in alfornada to take on gym leader tulip, drawn in by my appearance i’m assuming - she decided it was worth sticking around, and after helping me obliterate tulip’s team she officially joined as a team member. she loves to relax, unwinding by dancing to music - whether from the phone or from me singing. she is still easily enamoured by other people’s appearances, and loves to look at people; observing and taking in their physicality & fashion choices.

crayola the slither wing - o - ✨

bug fighting

tera bug

booster energy

protosynthesis

jolly (+ speed / - special attack)

first impression / body press / leech life / wild charge

i actually found crayola during a week-long vacation to paldea with my family before officially moving, being unaware of the rules around the great crater (trust me, arven’s already given me an earful). i found her injured, and the others were continuing to ostracise and attempt to harm them - so i caught them and patched them up before they officially became my partner pokémon. crayola is hard to budge, both personality-wise and in battle a - not a lot phase/ them. they have incredibly endurance, and love to battle.

HONORARY MEMBERS~

bunny the breloom - ♂

grass fighting

tera grass

i found them injured outside of medali, and they ended up being permanent - so it was more dangerous to let them back out into the wild. they don’t battle, simply hang around. the rest of the team and i love him though.

I wanted to try making my own Paradox Pokemon. This one is called Swift Talons and it’s a Past Paradox form of Hawlucha. It’s based on raptors and other bird-like feathered dinosaurs that are closely related to modern birds.

Swift Talons

Paradox Pokémon

Type: Fighting/Ground

Height: 4’11” Weight: 150 lbs

Ability: Protosynthesis

Although it is incapable of flight, Swift Talons is a highly effective hunter that runs at incredible speeds. It takes down its prey by jumping and kicking with its sharp leg talons. There is a theory that Swift Talons is an ancient form of Hawlucha from the age of the dinosaurs.
