This is my second submission, the first being for Poison/Dragon which actually lost out to Poison/Ground in the end. With this concept i based my sketches on a Gila Monster as i felt it to be quite the adequate concept for a Poison/Ground due to the fact that it's normally found in deserts and is actually poisonous lol.

I was thinking the poisonous looking jewels on this things head could have some sort of "mystic properties which would allow it to use moves you wouldn't think a Poison/Ground concept would normally get.

I'll edit in more of a description a bit later but for now you can leave your comments and tell me what you think.
 
How could I miss the most obvious Poison/Ground design possible!?

Of course. It can easily Rapid Spin. And... um...
 
I love yours Maniac . Grasps the concept perfectly. 5 Stars *****!!!
@Lorak: Hamburger=Win I mean it can spin and make flying types Fat(Gravity:P).

Precisely.

And for those of you who haven't gotten the typing yet...
Poison = tomato; salmonella outbreak recently.
Ground = beef. Yes, ground beef.

LOL, I got the Ground pun, but I thought the Poison was referring to McDonald's...
 
Been looking for some trends in Poison and Ground types:

Poison:
Of the sole Poison and Poison/other-type (not other-type/Poison), many have fangs, with most of the minority others with teeth or mandibles.
Most Poison types (and dual Poison/other and other/Poison) are terrestrial, keeping in contact with the ground even when it seems illogical (see Beedrill, Dustox). A few counter-examples are the Ghost/Poison Gastly line, and the only Flying line with a Poison primary type, the Zubat line.
Poison Pokemon have diversity in unusual body structures, compared to the average humanshape or quadruped. These include the snake-like Seviper and Ekans line, Grimer line, Gulpin line, Skorupi line, Tentacool line, Bellsprout line, Spinarak line, Qwilfish, and Budew line.

Ground
The greatest percent of Ground Pokemon are quadrupeds, followed closely by bipeds. The fewest percent are of non-biped or non-quadruped status.
Dual-type grounds often take on the coloration of their other type, such as the Gligar line (note the in-game color for Flying, although one could argue it equally represents its Poison attacks), Nidoran M line, Wooper line, Mudkip line (Marshstomp and Swampert), Camerupt, Wishcash (blue highlights), Torterra, Gastrodon (blue version), and the Gabite line.

Feel free to add onto this list with replies.
 
LOL, I got the Ground one, but I thought the Poison was referring to McDonald's...

Burger used Gravity
All Flyers/Levitators got grossly fat.
Burger: Bet you're loving this now?

And for those of you who haven't gotten the typing yet...
Poison = tomato; salmonella outbreak recently.
Ground = beef. Yes, ground beef.

I knew the ground beef reference was going to be used, but I never thought about the tomato outbreak. I first assumed it had to do with it being so greasy and improper prepared.
 
LOL, I got the Ground oun, but I thought the Poison was referring to McDonald's...
Equally valid, about the fast-food industry.

Burger used LDL! It's super effective!

EDIT: Just don't ask the Mexican food about using Tailwind...

Holy crap Maniaclyrasist! That rocks! The only thing(s) I question about it is, will have Rapid Spin, and if so, how will it be believable?
 
For anyone that's not interested in the 'Spider Queen,' I threw together this interpretation of the komodo idea. It definitely looks more bulky, still could be pretty fast, and could probably have a higher attack. And yes, I know the legs aren't level. It bothers me too. lol

Color scheme changed a bit. Traded the acid green for a sandy color.

*Kimodo dragon-esque picture*


A spiky tail would be about the only thing I suggest to make this even better. This one rocks!
 
Out of all the art ideas, I was very impressed with Maniacly's Gila Monster the most. The komodo dragon was also cool, looked like croconaw's angry cousin LOL

anyways, I thought I'd put my 2 cents in.

Here is my idea for a poison/ground pokemon.
Has anyone heard of Camel Spiders also known as wind scorpions?

I wanted to post both a video and a picture of why this spider is a suitable contestant.


First: The video... it is eating a freakin lizard!!

Second: The picture

It is really scary to look at, and they come in various shapes and sizes.

That is my idea of a poison/ground, something like a camel spidel... althought not poisonous, they live in all terrains and hunt down their prey fiercely. It is not venomous though... but that didnt stop a skunk from getting a poison typing, why can't a beast of a spider like this one?

This is my idea of a poison/ground
 
Not a artist or anything but how about a poisonous zombie/earth bound spirit/mud Monster? Like radioactive mud monster/zombie thing.

Hey people while i was away i was busy creating this little nasty, which to me is much better than my hedgehog. When i was reading eariler comments people had said a zombie poke wouldnt work beacause it would be slow, and as you can see mines is not. I gave it reactor like ears (i guess) which have acid toxians steaming out, those toxicains are also coming out of its arms, and from under it head. It's body also has acids surrounding it, and its body it made of hard(light) ground material(since zombies rise from the earth). the black strpes arent there for display. The stripes on it's arms and legs allow it to spin the different parts. It took me some time to make this so i hope you guys really like it.
