#Rarity Rapidash

[saguaropokevariants]

Vekpa and Rarity for the crackship thing ahhaha?? 👀

Three babies! Really enjoyed making these, Cosmog is a fun Pokemon to work with. Rarity is honored to be considered by a legendary, as usual.

Rutherford is most like Vekpa, a bit loud too. He'll become a Solgaleo, too. Being mixed with a 'regular Pokemon' affected both him and Flurry, showing what they'll become when fully evolved. He definitely would follow Vekpa around, being a little mime and mimics everything he says!

Celest is most like Rarity, and can either show Solgaleo, or Lunala in her genes, impossible to tell what she'll get when she evolves into a Rapidash. She's a Preemie like Rarity was, but due to being partially Cosmog, she isn't as shaky. She gallops around, jumping as high as she can to try and float like her two siblings can. Shame she can't do that, but she sure tries her best! She likes to try and nom on their tails.

Flurry leans back into Cosmog, showing they'll be Lunala when they grow up. Due to some odd genetics with Legendaries, they show absolutely no gender. They're incredibly quiet and tends to distance themselves from everyone, including their own siblings. They barely speak above a soft whisper, and prefers to simply point, or nod/shake their head.

You're free to take any of these three if you so please! Enjoy some funky star babies!

[pokemon-variants-pokedex]

asking out of curiosity, but how common would each of these variants be?

(Link was being dumb, sorry…)

Hello!

The Purebred (Kantonian breed in this case) is the most common of this list and is found anywhere Rapidash and Ponyta is found (except for Galar where the Galarian breed is found instead).

The Vog is the least common, only being found in captivity. The only region where Wooloo and Dubwool are native alongside Ponyta and Rapidash is Galar. The Vog breed is born to a Kantonian mother, not a Galarian one.

Ion Storm isn't common, but it's not rare either. Neither of the parent pokemon are commonly found together in the wild but they are seen together occasionally.

Hanabi is a "spring" father exclusive and so the rarity changes depending on what region your in. In some regions, a sawsbuck/deerling's form changes depending on the time of year. In other regions, it depends on where it's found.

The Pahoehoe is common-ish? Mudsdales and Mudbrays are not typically found in the same environment in a region but have been known to mingle.

The Destrier breed is the second most common breed on this list. In some places, the Destrier breed may even be more common than the standard breed!

DRAGONS FOR BEGINNERS - Cyclizar

Type: Dragon/Normal Size: moderate (roughly 5 feet) Rarity: ★★☆☆☆ Danger: ★★☆☆☆ Energy: ★★★★☆

There's a reason Cyclizar is so popular in Paldea. However, for beginner dragons, Cyclizar can be a bit situational.

They're happiest when they can act as a transport Pokemon, carrying their trainer back and forth. If you need a ride Pokemon for your daily commute, or a Pokemon to send your kid to school on, these dragons are your best bet. They're a bit like if you mixed a Rapidash with the disposition of an Arcanine, but they aren't on fire.

Their main problem is that they are extremely energetic. If you work them as a ride Pokemon that's not usually an issue, but they don't do great as just pets. They will run wild and, if not trained, might run over smaller Pokemon or elderly grandparents.

As battle Pokemon they don't have the raw power as a lot of their other dragon cousins, but they've found some popularity. They have a lot of good support moves that can boost up a serious team. For casual trainers, they can handle most wild Pokemon or basic battles, provided they don't face usual weaknesses.

All in all: Great transport Pokemon, but maybe pass if you're looking for a couch potato.

[eldragon-x]

carild comes from the words chaos, care, and child. if I made shinies I wouldve replaced the purple body half with yellow so the pink-yellow would reference mabels key sweater from nwhs and made the head and stripes shades of blue to reference the zodiac wheel as it appears in the finale

impome was originally going to be named imperil before realizing thats an actual english word. it comes from imp, imposter, and home. it having homesickness stems from me reacting to seeing that the thing built a small space ship by being like "aww it wants to go home" because I love sympathizing with monsters even if they terrify me

homurhyme comes from homura (fire/flame) and thyme which sounds similar to "time" and the plant being associated with strenght, courage and sacrifice. the "ryhme" part is a small reference to the design being influenced by meloetta. the red horns represent madokas hair bows while also referencing demon homura. I tried to reference both homuras magical girl and demon outfit overall.

raridash comes from rarity and rapidash. its a mix of both kantonian and galarian rapidash. the lilac part references amaltheas dress. if i gave it a shiny, it would be dark blue to reference schmendricks cloak she temporarily wears

provistringe comes from providence, strange, and hinge. its main body is meant to look like a disco ball and its arm takes inspiration from eternatus while also appearing like a ring surrounding a planet. a carild supposedly being able to stop it references the zodiac wheel but also just me being a sucker for bill redemptions where he befriends mabel lol

who wants funfacts about the fakemon i posted recently

Probably been done a million times already, but I'm feeling nostalgic

[saguaropokevariants]

How about Rarity with my lil umbeon bean here?

Would it be possible for it to lean more cat-? My girl is catobsessed so it would seem pfft

So uh. Quick bit of info: The amount of babies I draw is randomly decided by rolling a d4. You are the ONLY one to get 4. [I also spin a wheel with the highest shiny odds of 1/1024 with each baby to see if they are shiny!]

So I had to actively EDIT the original image to fit all four in.

Now to get into each one!

Rainbow is the most passionate of the four, running around and following either one of her siblings, or her parents. She likes to try and have a reason to prove herself and show off her skills. She's not particularly fond of her horn size, but tries not to show that. Markings are Harlequin!

Armor is a Preemie like Rarity was, and thus is a very shaky little baby boy. Like Rarity, he's very clingy and, at least until he evolves, will have a lot of Psychic-type outbursts. He's also the only one of the four to get hooves. Markings are Tabby!

Novo is a bit of a prim-and-proper kind of girl, keeping herself clean and ensuring she looks her best. Sometimes, secretly, she'll enjoy splashing around in mud-but tries to frame it as if she accidentally stepped in it if she's caught. She's also INCREDIBLY talkative, loving to chat with anybody. Markings are Siamese!

Zesty is the luckiest of the four, always finding four-leaf clovers, managing to get lucky with all kinds of things. He hopes that because of his luck, Armor was able to survive being a preemie. He cares a lot about his siblings and gets worried if they're hurt in any way. Markings are Calico! [Yes, I know Calicos are USUALLY female but there ARE male Calico cats.]

You're free to take these four if you so please! Since they're all Eevees, they have access to any Eeveelution. I'd like to think they'd all lean towards Dark, Psychic, and Fairy for their options, since they'd be influenced by their parents.

{Headcanon}

     When it comes to her pokemon, Sarana is incredibly close with them. Similar to how the Diamond and Pearl clans describe relationship between them and their pokemon, she sees them more like family rather than tools, terrifying monsters, or creatures that need to be kept away from. In her Rapidash, Sophora’s, case, the two grew up alongside one another, having been inseparable from a very young age, and so the medium would not hesitate to refer to her as being like a sister. For the rest of her team-- barring the Spiritomb--, however, Sarana has raised them all from their earliest forms as though they were her own, more often than not having earnt their trust by shielding them form the weather, nursing them from an injury or sickness, or simply offering companionship in a place where such a thing can be a rarity, out in the wild.

     It is needless to say that, especially when no-one happens to be around, Sarana tends to be extremely affectionate with her pokemon. Be it brushing through fur, tending to manes, cradling their features in her hands when she speaks to them-- anything that the woman can do to make them feel loved and appreciated, she will do. Sarana would, and has, sacrificed her own wellbeing to provide for her pokemon, or help them sort out whatever issue or dilemma they might have been facing. And they would do the same for her in a heartbeat. Their closeness has been nurtured over time, but is also vital to survival. Braving Hisui-- especially the Floaro-Eterna area-- on one’s own or in a small group can be seen as a death sentence, and so, their reliance on one another, is necessary. They have to be able to trust one another in any given situation; they have to be able to recognise where they fall short, but another might excel in. Without her team, Sarana would not have survived for a fraction as long as she has.

     They all have something to offer everyone else, and pull their weight around equally-- Sarana included. While she provides the with companionship, a safe environment, and majority of the food and supplies, the rest of her pokemon help out in the following ways:

Sophora (Rapidash) → Transport, warmth, lighting fires

Jonquil (Spiritomb) → Protection, intervention of malevolent ghosts

Scilla (Mismagius) → Illusions to mask their presence, incantations to ward off misfortune and/or threats. A pillar of her team in battle.

Erykah (H!Zoroark) → Illusions for protection/to mask their presence, protection in general. Another pillar of her team in battle-- the biggest threat she has in terms of sheer power.

Primrose (A!Ninetales) → Navigation in blizzards and snowstorms, precognition. The third pillar of her team in battle.

Neem (Petilil) → Production of leaves used in cures, and teas for a variety of conditions, including fatigue.

[maybe-mew]

"Landscaper ay ?" Silvester looked around briefly before back at the mystic pokemon "The place looks boring so far- Is it just work in progress ? I think its missing a lil spunk-" he said with a chuckle at the mew "By the way, what kind of pokemon are you ?" he asked more confused now realizing he has never seen their kind of species before

Connie gives a snicker, shaking her head at the similarly strange pokemon. a hybrid maybe? Mostly Mightyena.. But, they don't pry, they simply get up from where they were on the ground to twirl in the air, giving a smile.

"It is indeed a work in progress~! I'm a leader in my Landscaping group, so I look over the land and do the starting touches, think out some initial plans and give them to my group to see what they come up with! But we don't only just shape the land, we have the powers to change pokemon too! Well... to a degree." Connie shrugs, hovering in the air. "Variants, yanno? Like the Ponyta and Rapidash over here! It's only when pokemon reside here and have offspring do they change. Can't change pokemon themselves. It'd be a violation of their individuality." Connie says, rubbing their temples as if it'd happened before, before realizing Silvester had another question.

"Oh-!! Wait sorry, I'm rambling. You wanted to know what kind of pokemon I am?" They ask, awaiting a nod from the Mightyena hybrid. They smile brightly! "Glad you asked! I'm a bit of a rarity of my kind~! I'm a Mew and Hoopa hybrid! A Mew-pa! Hehehe!" They announce, giving a little flip in the air for finesse.

Congratulations! Connie's Reference has been updated!

The Mane Six (From MLP) as a PMD team?

oh geez, i don’t know

fun fact! i named my galarian ponyta/rapidash “glimglam”, which is supposed to be a nickname of sorts for starlight glimmer cuz she’s my fave

twilight would be a psychic type, rarity an ice type, applejack either a ground or rock type, pinkie would be fairy type, fluttershy is grass or bug type, rainbow dash is obviously flying type

they could also be two types of course, but something along those lines

[orangeoctopi7]

I’m curious. How’s your team in Pokémon Sword and Shield looking? I’d imagine they’ve grown a bit since the introduction post you made.

Thanks for asking! I got really busy with Christmas and work after that first introduction post and I kinda forgot to ever follow it up. The roster has expanded quite a bit, because I can’t confine myself to a team of 6. It’s more like a team of 12 now.

Trix has grown into a lovely Cinderace and she kicks all the butt. She was invaluable against Rihan in the Championship. My beautiful girl is all grown up!

Metaknight was also a key player against Rihan, as well as Zacian. He’s a beast and I love him.

Badger has become such a tank! His Obstruct saved me from a lot of trouble against Leon’s team, and the lead-up to the fight with Chairman Rose.

Winston didn’t get a chance to be on my Championship team, unfortunately, but only because I have 3 electric types on my roster and I didn’t really need him. Strong Jaw + Thunder Fang = A very poweful pupper!

Applebloom DID get to be on my Championship team and was invaluable in so many battles. She’s such a powerhouse, I love her! She might be my favorite pokemon of this run! (don’t tell Trix)

Muddybuddy didn’t make it onto my Championship team either, due to the fact that I already had ground and water covered. He’s still a great buddy though, and Yawn makes him my go-to for catching.

Now for some new team mates!

Wirt had actually joined my team as a temporary member against Nessa. I wasn’t expecting to keep him on at first, but I’ve always loved Lanturn and I realized this was probably my first chance to raise one in-game. He was my ace in the hole against Leon’s Charizard, being water and electric against a fire/flying type. He did a great job!

Next is DougDimadome, owner of the Dimsdale Dimadome! Haha, I couldn’t NOT have a Galarian Weezing on my team. Weezing’s a great tank, and Neutralizing Gas is a great ability. He was a great help against Bede.

I was also lucky enough to catch a Gigantimax Butterfree named BigStink. I’ve always been a fan of Butterfree, so of course I HAD to get a Gigantimax one. She was a pain to catch, but she was so worth it. She was my go-to against Bea, and remained a fun team-member afterwards.

I didn’t want to raise the Toxel i got from the daycare at first. But when I got to Ballonlea, I realized I had nothing on my team to answer against fairy types, and quite a few weaknesses against it. So I dumped all my EXP candies into that little guy, and was pleasantly surprised by how good Toxtricity became once it evolved. He helped me take down Bede on several occasions.

I caught Jenny early on, but didn’t add her to the team until I lost my first try against Bea. I realized I needed more against fighting types than just Metaknight. Thus, I added Jenny and BigStink. Jenny’s a great support pokemon, with both Reflect and Lightscreen, plus U-Turn. I’ll usually send her out first to set up, and the U-Turn out to whoever I want.

The latest addition to my team is Rarity, a Galarian Rapidash I traded from my cousin. (Yes, I realize it’s male. I took what I got and I did what I wanted) While DougDimadome is a fairy type, he hasn’t really learned any fairy moves, so this is my first time raising a fairy type. They’ve been fun.

I also just started a Nuzlocke on another file, so I’ll be posting about that in the next week or so.
