More refined eel snake
kinda giving me Elektross vibes
Malaconda?That too ig
Cute! Is it basically like Minccino? I'd use it as a starting point for the cleaning theme. Since it looks like a maid, maybe make its tail look more similar to a feather duster?Sketch of Lumberjaxe, a Fighting-type based off of, well, lumberjacks. Abilities are Hyper Cutter and Sharpness.I don't do much fakemon these days, but I do have one I'd like to show:
Iron projector, a future paradox Zoroark. It uses the eye like orbs and blue patches across it's body to project hologram disguises or doubles. Feel free to give any criticisms you may have, I won't get better if I don't think I need too
The pose and lore is super cool, though regarding the stats, future paradoxes always have even numbers, while past paradoxes have odd numbers. (except the cover legends)
Huh, I didn't realize that, that's cool. I'll redo the stats with that in mind, thank you!
really really love the concept here! The body shape reminds me of EMMI's from metroid, it's a really neat balance of creepy and cool-looking. That being said, the hair shape seems a bit hard to make out, and there's plenty of room to get creative with it to elevate the design. Anyway, I'm a sucker for paradox fakemon, and holograms are such a cool way of making a future zoroark <3
The hair was definitely the hardest part, and personally, I'm not super happy with it myself. I'm glad you liked however :pSo, turns out making paradox mons is really fun! I came here with another one:
A past para Sableye based on another creature that likes shiny things-crows. I'd always thought the things on sable's head looked like wings- so now they are! If you see one without a large crystal, it's likely been in a fight with another Selfish Talon and had its gem stolen.
Edit- After posting this, I decided to make a future variant to go with it, so here that is:
A robot that's been exposed to, absorbed by, and was corrupted by the crystals you see on its body. They interfere with its built in coding, preventing logical calculations, and leaving only the inherent greed in it.Last edited:So, I've been working on this idea for a Fakemon that played on the similarities between the Tapus and the Treasures of Ruin by making a Pokemon that was a fifth member of both groups at once; a Tapu brought over to Paldea as a treasure that ended up bonding with a helmet or crown in the process. I'm not an artist, but I tried to draw what was kind of in my head because the AI picture I shared elsewhere is both not accurate and also, y'know, AI. I gave it a statblock, a unique ability, and a level-up movepool but I don't know how good or bad I made it so I would really appreciate feedback on that front.
Crown of Ruin: Turns the ground into Malevolent Terrain when the Pokemon enters the battle and lowers the Speed stats of all Pokemon except itself
Malevolent Terrain: Spread moves become single-target moves. The power of Dark moves is boosted.
I tried to think what sort of field effect a Dark-type would make and I thought that inhibiting everyone's sightlines made sense, and Speed was the only stat none of the Treasures cut already. I gave it what I understood to be a mediocre speed stat, but I wonder if it's a tad high because if it's 90 and everyone else on the field is cut by 25%, then it's outspeeding anything with less than 120, which seems like a lot. It's movepool is a blend of what both groups have, and I also worry I made it too annoying because... that's a LOT of stat manipulation between the two groups.
Here's my starter trio, themed after Japanese media (Insect fighting, Tokusatsu productions, and kappa/Sumo).
Beetwig -> Treetle -> Cannopytle
Type: Grass/Bug
HA: Compound Eyes -> Heavy Armor (Reduces super-effective damage by 50%)
Base stats: 90/120/115/60/85/60 (Cannonpytle)
Signature move: Napalm Seed (Grass - Physical - BP: 110 - PP: 10 - Acc: 100% - The user fires a seed at the target that will explode upon impact. This will leave the target with a burn.)

Flarrapin -> Ignishell -> Eruptoise
Type: Fire -> Fire -> Fire/Ground

Base stats: 79/83/119/116/65/68
Signature move: Krakatoa Beam (Fire - Special - BP: 140 - PP: 5 - Acc: 95% - The user opens up its plastron to launch a very powerful beam of geothermal energy at the target. This also damages the user.)

Macaqua -> Sumonkey -> Yokozunami
Type: Water -> Water/Fighting -> Water/Fighting
HA: Guts -> Sturdy

Neither side can be taken off the field.) & Sidestep Slam (Fighting - Physical - BP: 80 - PP: 10 - Acc: 90% - The user dodges the target's attack and slaps them down. The move fails if the target if the target is not readying an attack.)

The artwork is very clean and the concepts are creative.Krakentoa is a really good name.
Leafage trailblaze spikey shield and stuffDex entries:
Bramberry: The berries on this Pokémon's body can be used for great-tasting jam. The berries grow back quickly so it doesn't mind.
Pricklash: With its prickly arms, it can whip its opponents into submission. It gives out a mean-looking gaze when doing so.
How do they sound?Flippiflappi - An ecologically similar Pokémon to Wishiwashi, it is based off of starlings and WWII bomber planes. Because it's similar to Wishiwashi, it has a reskin of Schooling called Flocking. Compared to Wishiwashi School Form, Flippiflappi Flock Form is less durable, but a lot faster as well as reliable recovery in the form of Roost.

Last edited:Here's my Water starter, Maripup. Based off of earless seals, it will gain a maritime (sailors and ship captains) upon evolving.
Do you think Popplio and its evolved forms would pose a problem for Maripup?
