I am biased but the dandelion balloon one ;_;
oh that one! that one is still near and dear to my heart despite the fact its no longer up on the internet. i rly like its vibes and mood!
#fun fact: i had a second fanart idea off that one#making a fakemon design based on this#it was a whimsicott/eldegoss/kinda like that ish type of little guy#but with an attack/defense/speed forme in the pattern of deoxys based on elgara/sula/yavanna#the speed forme was obviously the dandelion yavanna#the defense forme was the sula just by exclusion. it had the long flowery hair as a cage of branches encasing it. like tangela but better#(the pokedex entry says it lets smaller pokemon hide there)#the attack forme went elgara and i abandoned bc i was unsatisfied w it#but the good part of the idea was that the solar ring symbol went Around is head. as petals and also referencing solar grass type moves#like solar beam#it was supposed to have hefty tree trunk arms#but then i was unsatisfied w how that little body with the tree trunk arms was balancing#and then two of the three were no more and the wip was left to die in an old sketchbook#linden leaf rustling

Unsurprisingly assigned fairy type so heres me as a pokemon/fakemon lol
#I honestly should have seen it coming LMAO#my whimsy and fruity behaviour has captivated you ooooohoohoohoo#(not complaining btw I see myself as fairy type as well hahfhgb)#I also saw a lot of grass and normal type which was surprising but I think it makes sense!!!#thank u for assigning me a type it satisfies my curiosity#I used clowns/werewolves as my base as well as my sona for this.. and I wanted a switch form type kind of like Morpeko and finizen#puppierrot is puppy + Pierrot and Houndrel is hound + scoundrel#this was fun to make!!!! I was also thinking dark/psychic and fairy/psychic could work but eh#and yea I know dark and normal are type opposites. but volcanion exists so im going to ignore the inconsistencies#myart#puppysona#fakemon#pokemon#character design#sona#edit:went back and changed the typing to fairy/dark and fairy/normal

Made a fakemon based on the Cat-Sith because if there's three thing you can't stop me from putting in my character-designs its pokemon, black cats, and messed up fantasy creatures.
#cat-sith#pokemon#fakemon#my art#not mentioned in the dex entry cause I didn't want to make it TO wordy but they also go after ghost pokemon too#yes i did watch a final fantasy video right before deciding to design this. no i have not played a sing final fantasy game.#more based on the historical myth but the color choice is partially inspired by Vivi

This is so frustrating for me because I just want to play a fun open world monster tamer with cutsey visuals online, it is wild that the genre has so many immoral companies/games.
Pokemon has let me down tremendously (last mainline i bought was moon, i tried ultra moon day 1 and returned ultra moon the next day bc it was way too similar), I have tried pokemon sword (yarhar) and pokemon Scarlet (friend let me play it) and the quality is not where it should be, too much is rushed, buggy, laggy, and the cut content is so obvious.
SV dropped the ball with the story plot in later DLCs which stinks bc the initial eldritch horror Area Zero set up they had in the base game was amazing. I also really loved what the devs were able to get done with the character development bc it felt like World Ends Club character depth... but with the unethical deadlines the Pokemon game devs face, I can't see myself purchasing new pokemon games. It feels gross. I also haven't liked most mon designs these past gens, they lack the sharp angles with curves artstyle i adored in earlier gens. Think Scizor, Charmeleon, Luxray, Deoxys, Jiratchi, etc. Pokemon have become more rounded/obviously plushie-fiable and overdesigned. And the art was the main draw to pokemon for me, not the battles.
And then there was Ni no kuni mobile (I had not played the main games but I did watch playthrus, I saw the mobile game launch announcement, and was excited to try-- only for Ni no Kuni mobile to announce it was going to add a blockchain play to earn model. I instantly uninstalled it.)
And now Palworld (Pocketpair without permission lifting from a Mega Delphox fan design, company previously published an unethical ai generator party game, and the Pocketpair social medias flirted with NFTs.)
At this point I might just give up trying to financially support games. Watching youtube playthrus is free and if it's really that interesting I can try demos or yarhar.
Free to play games are probably the only games I'll be playing, but there's a whole unethical monetization practice that is common with that model too. :( i am autistic and have OCD so i take offense to games that encourages unlimited micro transactions, as it's often ppl with ocd and autism that are preyed on by these predatory monetization systems. Whales should never be normalized, Whales are gambling addicts and need help. I am really hoping Overwatch 2's monetization changes due to the recent buyout but I don't have my hopes up.
Like, I am so jaded i might just make a pokemon fangame or hobby into making my own monster tamer at this point fr lol. I have ideas for both a pokemon fangame and an original ip, I would just need to set a schedule to making it.
Pokemon fangame would be easiest I imagine, 2d game pixel sprite work is much easier than 3d modeling and I can use pre-made assets.
Original monster taming IP would be harder, probably a 2d game, bc 3d is much harder to make due to how long it takes to model and rig and animate everything.
Idk tho. Might just remain a world building hobby tbh.
#negative#:( im really sad rn#Maybe ill just make PMD au art or something to get my mind of it#or maybe some fakemon designs#I have some regional varient pokemon ideas based on where the pokemon originate from#ik Delphox doesn't have a Delphi Oracle ref in the Japanese name but it inspired a Greek Pokemon regional variant#and that led to an Empoleon and Serperior Greek regional variant too#text#long text

once again posting an age old wip so I might actually feel compelled to finish it. This time: Timburr line redesigns!
all my life I thought their inspiration was construction worker and beaver- but as far as I can tell it’s just carnies and construction workers?? my brain always saw timburr’s weird little ponytail thing as a tail- and beavers build their dams so they tie in perfectly fine with construction?? anyway it confused me enough I just started redesigning them with ten times more beaver <3
conkeldurr changes the most cause I rlly just want them to be shaped. like a retired kindly construction grandpa
the only thing I have no idea what to do with is those veins- cause on one hand I don’t rlly like them but I also think that they’re just one of those design elements I don’t think I can remove? if I do I have to replace them with something else but I don’t think I just want some random markings- but I also don’t want to keep those swimmer wings looking vein fucks-
#pokemon redesign#pokemon#fakemon#timburr#gurdurr#conkeldurr#how the hell do you tag Pokémon??#also I’m basing gurdurr off of strong men so you still have that carnie connection-#I like the way it makes the designs flow personally#crow.art

Fairy-grass
Fairy: You kind of scare me… In a friend way. (Affectionate)
Grass: You deserve just. So much more attention. You’re so good.
:D!! This is so sweet!! Thank you! I promise I’m not scary or at least I don’t try to be ;w;
#answered asks#ask games#thank you thank you! these Pokémon ask games always make me want to design fakemons based of the assigned typings lol#fairy grass is a really fun one :0#rambles#winged-Kara

I think if I were to take a crack at rescue team's plot, I'd connect the Kecleon Brothers and the Eon Duo a lot more explicitly? Like the purple kecleon can't hold it against Latios for stealing his merchandise not just cause he had a sympathetic reason for it, but because purple could see himself doing the same for his brother? Maybe purple feels really protective of green cause he's the older brother and the reason they don't set up shop in dungeons like the rest of their family is cause they've had some kind of bad experience, so purple hears about Pitfall Valley and just feels immense dread. Maybe even instead of joining Nuri's team, Latios and Latias set up shop or just hang out in Pokemon Square and the siblings all end up getting really close.
Maybe the Kecleon Bros even try to tag along at Northern Range? I dunno about that though.
#tbh. i probably wouldnt but id love to do a comic or something like milos from home or on borrowed time#where its based on the story from the games but theyve got their own spin on them and its like a totally different interpretation#its kinda why i asked for canon pmd characters to make my own designs for cause id love to do that if i had the energy for it#idk. id love the opportunity to just do my own thing with rescue team slkdfjsldfdsfd. i think comics based on these games are fun!#there's another explorers based one which i cant recall the name of but hero is actually this large fakemon and its soooooo cool#like you can tell its self indulgent and the author is having fun and doing their own thing and like. i like that! its fun!#echoed voice#pmd posting

As following the vote, Snatcher was the winner. I'll be honest, you have no idea how hard it is to make a fakemon based on someone that could legit be one in their original design lmao

Some older fakemon designs that have held up pretty well.
The first was an older starter concept that ended up being a combination rainbow mantis shrimp/ghost shrimp. I’d want to imrpove the form and shape of the pincers
The second was me following along with the truegreen7 four artists videos. The “Pretty, Protector, Protagonist” prompt. It was gonna have a second stage that furthered those concepts but I mostly just wanted to make a golden snub-nosed monkey pokemon
The last was for a small fan pokemon design contest, based on deers/deer ticks (and to a lesser extent, CWD, but research that with caution, its a disturbing disease that effects deer, elk, etc). Thats what the green orbs are supposed to represent, but it’s bit vague without animation to help. But i loved the palette, shape and context, and I had an evo planned for it as well. The sketches below

LICKITISPLIT (Poison/Dark)
I saw a post on Twitter by the fakemon creatorn Pen Paladin doing their own version of bonded pokemon once PECHARUNT was officialy released and I wanted to make one too. This one was a case where the name came to me before the designt itself, but in the end it just made sense.
The bonded pokemon iself was a LICKITUNG who became a retainer in order to gain power over others. Its design has elements of both LICKITUNG and LICKILICKY
For its shiny colors at first I wanted to use the original Lickitung/Lickilicky shiny color (yellow) but since the only color that changes on this shinies is the black, it didn't contrast enough with the pinks and beiges, so I went with electric blue.
Its overall design is based on Banchō delinquents from japan, with its hair turned into a pompadour and its dark skin resembling the uniforms and black atires they wear,

Been playing a lot of Pokémon recently, and decided to do some past/future paradox fakemon designs based on tartar! The name of them are DEAD RINGER and IRON CORDS, respectively. Credit to Snazzy who helped came up with some lore, their names and their type!
Under the cut is some concept/ideas during the process of creating these designs.
Dead ringer is a steel/grass type. I take inspiration from the actual wall mounted phone from late 19th century that are made of wood, put onto a wooden shelf on wall with wooden drawer attached. The body resembles an antique wooden table with foil gold legs. He has a grassy tie on the drawer handle and a tattered clothing resembling table cloth. The phone cord is very thick indicating a lot of strength, with the phone pole resembling a tail. The anatomy kinda works like kangaroo with the tail being a strong support of the body. Dead ringer only developed primary communication function, and he cries in Morse code. He find hollow objects to tie to his cord to amplify his sound to act intimidating too.
Iron Cords is a steel/electric type. I take inspiration on how black holes are illustrated/visualized in text books/medias as a black colored funnel with white wireframe showing its shape, and translate the shape to his ‘speaker’. This Pokémon already lost its function as a phone, as it is build more for storing information and such. It walks in plantigrade posture and is more android looking. Because of how it follows its program without failing, it started make human feel distant as it seems emotionless and soulless. The wireframe are also inspired by 3D modeling. I can say also iron valiant’s lore and design inspired this design too.

Yeah, I don't know what to post about the Pokemon Teraleak yet. There's just so much, I haven't sorted it out in my mind yet.
And to tell the truth, some of the big revelations about Gen 3 and 4 are just confirming things the Pokemon theorists already thought. Theorists already mapped the three trios in Gen 1-4 to the Arceus circle - it's just really neat to confirm that GameFreak intended it this way. And that there are Pokemon in the circle that we didn't know about, some that haven't been translated yet. And apparently the circle confirms the idea of psuedo-legendaries though, which is cool.
I think one thing it proves is that GameFreak developers can be a lot more hardcore and weird than the easily predictable, pattern-based company we've browbeaten each other into accepting for decades. The...um...furry fics...? Canalave "extended lore"?...proves that. And then there are the more monstrous Gen 3 concepts that I wouldn't even connect to Pokemon if not for the Unown rock monster (the first Regi?) and the Cacturne. I kinda hope this is the origin or Cacturne and Metagross, and they were just refined down to versions that fit the other art style.
That's what I'd like to think of each generation being: a collection of very different designs from different perspectives that they came together to brainstorm before refining them into one coherent artstyle.
I'd also like to think of the Unown rock monster as the first inspiration for the Regis, with the Unown evolving into the Braille used with the Regis in the final build.
I'm seeing a kind of synchronicity phenomenon here, where the vibe of the beta Pokemon is still communicated in the final build somehow. Not only do the betas reflect the style of their era, but because the fans are inspired by the games, their fakemon somehow synchronize with the vibes of the betas through the final build. I'm not sure how to explain it better than that? The fakemon that my friends and I worked on during Gen 3 and 4 resemble some of these Gen 3 betas. I think there was a style of the time, and I think that a lot of GameFreak's intentions for the design elements of the game are successfully implied through the experience, so fans tend to reconstitute that as their own headcanons. Does that make sense?
It's a miracle I got to sleep last night, after fiendishly tracking every leak I could from the afternoon to the early hours of the morning. I think I might be finally be ready to take a break from the leaks (besides sleeping). I mean, I thought I'd be one of those people to immediately post the leaks and my opinions about them as they came out, but for whatever reason I didn't feel like it, maybe because they haven't stopped coming out. So I'll get to sharing my opinions at some point.
Have fun with the leaks!
