Here is the Pika Clone (aka, Electric Rodent) for my Western Fakemon Region!

This fakemon line is inspired by rabbits, jackalope folklore, fearsome critter legends & tall tales, and the eerie look of trail camera photography.

Although Pika Clones are traditionally based on rodents, I already have an early-route rodent based on Pack Rats and am considering a regional variant of the Rattata line. Because of that, I wanted my region's electric type mascot to stand apart while still capturing that familiar "electric critter" feel. I felt that Jackalopes ended up being a perfect fit.

Please let me know what you guys think of this evolution line! I would love to hear what you guys think, and I hope you all enjoy them as much as I do! ^^

Biribi - The Rabbit Pokémon: (Electric / Fairy Type)

Etymology: (Biri-Biri [Japanese onomatopoeia for electric shock] + Chibi [Japanese word for ‘small’, ‘tiny’, ‘short’])

Biribi had only recently been discovered; its existence had been widely debated for generations, with most sightings dismissed as nothing more than local legends. It stores static electricity within its cheek pouches before channeling it through its tiny horn buds, though the shocks it produces are still relatively weak. When discovered, it remains perfectly motionless, staring back with an eerie, blank expression. If its observer makes even the slightest sudden movement, it releases a burst of electricity before zigzagging through the forest at incredible speeds, leaving behind scorched leaves and bark as the only proof it was ever there.

Abilities:

1. Static
2. Lightning Rod

Hidden Ability:

1. Run Away

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Birisagi - The Jackalope Pokémon: (Electric / Fairy Type)

Etymology: (Biri-Biri [Japanese onomatopoeia for electric shock] + Usagi [Japanese word for 'rabbit'] OR Nousagi [Japanese word for 'hare' or 'wild rabbit'])

Birisagi are very rarely seen in the wild, making their homes deep within the region's forests. Their fully developed antlers channel the electricity stored in their cheek pouches, allowing them to deliver devastating electric blows by ramming into their opponents. Their existence had been widely debated for generations until a trainer's trail camera captured the silhouette of one silently watching from atop a tree, prompting an expedition that finally confirmed the species. Much faster than Biribi, they vanish in blinding flashes and race through the forest in erratic bursts of speed, gathering static electricity within their bushy tails as they run. 

Abilities:

1. Static
2. Lightning Rod

Hidden Ability:

1. Speed Boost

New Move for my Region:

Bolt Dash

[Electric | Physical | 40 power | 100% Accuracy | 30 pp]

The user cloaks itself in electricity and charges at the target with incredible speed. This move always goes first.

New Move for my Region (Maybe the Signature Move for Biribi & Birisagi?):

Antler Charge

[Electric | Physical | 80 power | 100% Accuracy | 15 pp]

The user channels electricity through its forked antlers and rams the target. This move deals 1.5× more damage to a paralyzed target.

Fiverr artist I paid is Hikoku.

Also tell me what next three types you want me to do.

Was this just an excuse to draw some Gardevoir? You can't prove it.

Desquilex (Dementor + mosquito + Culex pipiens)

I've always wanted to created a pokémon based on the London underground mosquito. For context, there was a myth that it evolved in the tunnels of London's underground railway system. The myth that it evolved there has been debunked, but it's still cool to think about it.

I wanted it to be a cave-dwelling pokémon, looking mysterious and wispy, and it has this glowing eyes. Then my sketch reminded me of a Dementor. So I removed the eyes and gave it this whole Dementor vibe, which make sense coz Dementors also suck the happiness out of people.

A group of them would be haunting tunnels, waiting for trains filled with people and pokemon to feed upon. I'm thinking of giving it an ability or a signature move that drops a pokemon's happiness to zero.

Discreetle and Blendinsect are my idea for an early game Normal/Bug type line set in a big city region. Descriptions below:

Discreetle

It has adapted to camouflaging itself in an urban environment. It tries its best to hide from predators like Gumshoos, but hiding only makes it more enticing to chase.

Blendinsect

It has perfected its disguise and now it can walk through a crowded street with ease, though it still prefers to lurk in back alleys. If a human confronts it it becomes very flustered and scatters.

Mewblade - Letum Falcifer "Death Carrying A Scythe." Decider of Fate, goddess of entropy.

Mewblade is a Genetic Reaper Legendary Fakemon, a Mewthree. She is based after the Pokémon, Mewtwo, the Genetic Pokémon. She was created in the year 2000, one of six in a set. The statue was designed in tribute to a character that I not only cherish but who continues to inspire my pursuit to understand an entropic universe.

The statue is a 9' tall 525 lbs bronze statue, 3D print, cast, and patina by the Firebird Bronze foundry located in Troutdale, OR. Art and design is (C) to Vanessa L Krauss. It took roughly 18 months to make this one-of-a-kind creation.

___________

As an aside, I did eventually over-complicate the Mewtwo design over the course of decades by going hard on anatomy, hence the muscles, which doesn't make her look very Mewtwo-ish in the long run. But, it makes me happy, and I am glad I could make the ultimate tribute to her by casting her in bronze.

a redo of the flying type entry hazard because people didn't like the last one putting the opponent to sleep, hopefully this seems more balanced!

It mostly moves by rolling sideways. If it rolls foward it will get stuck and someone has to pick it up.

Deuterostome Pokémon is the largest group of Pokémon currently known, comprising all Vertebrate Pokémon and more. The evolution of this group is still a point of contention for researchers, the most recent hypothesis sees the particularly enigmatic Shuckle (Shucklae moldium) as not only part of this group but the least derived member. This suggests that a possible common ancestor to the entire group might have looked similar to Shuckle.

This hypothesis seems to find some value after the recent discovery of a new species of extinct Pokémon morphologically very similar to Shuckle: Yanshell (Yanjinium shukii). This Pokémon’s body was surrounded by a rocky shell used as protection from predators. Researchers describe the first evolution stage Yanjini as an ambush predator using their tail to dig inside rocks and hide waiting for any prey to wander nearby. It is possible that the final evolution stage had a similar hunting strategy, but its more developed forelimbs seem to indicate a more mobile creature.

For now I just have the side profile that I was using to design but I may make key art for them in the future

I’m not quite set on some of these designs, especially the Shamelops line, but I wanted to get the starters out of the way so I can design some other pokemon. Feel free to give suggestions for their designs or ask about their inspirations

Gremluck - The Scarecrow Pokemon

Which one would you choose?

(Also apologies for the hieroglyphic handwriting, I do not have the steadiest of hands)

The first few images are of the pseudo legendary Pokemon for my region “skorav” which is based off of Russia. And the last two are my concepts for the evolution of a regional tandemaus with the first being the old design.

​

Glaciost & Saberrime

When enough kids wish something existed bad enough, and that thing wishes it existed too, you get the egregore called Glaciost. It's the manifestation of the will to survive. Originally descended from the same line of large felinid-like pokemon that eventually branched into the species that became Raikou, this pokemon went extinct long before any substantial changes were made to it's fellow members of it's lineage. When kids read about prehistoric pokemon, such as Shieldon, Arhceops, or Aerodactyl, they often find themselves fond of Glaciost and Saberrime. Glaciost is not one to be left out. It manifested itself back into existence and now occupies the snowy mountains and icy caves of the world.

- Intended to be a ghostly wall that can chip away at the enemy while the user figures out what to do. Though by the time Saberrime is fully grown, it could definitely find it's way into an E4 lineup if paired with the right mons.

If you happen to be a fangame dev and wanna use it, the link for the sprites, pbs file, and design doc is on this page

Mega Empoleon makes it debut as part of my Mega Evolution fanart project which is Mega Evolutions for Pokemon that don't have one at the moment, so Mega Empoleon is the 39th entry of the project. Empoleon was introduced in Generation 4 who's Water/Steel which makes it the only starter with a unique type combination.

I thought about making Mega Empoleon more regal as it based on an emperor penguin and design taking inspiration of Poseidon due to trident shaped aesthetics as shown on the crown-like beak. I've had to add a cape based on the patterns from the underbelly and added shoulder pads to make it feel like an emperor.

Empoleon's type combo will be carried over in its Mega Evolution still being Water/Steel however I'll make it an special attacking tank with stats being focused on mixed defenses and Special firepower at the cost of low speed unless it's need for Trick Room builds. Next Mega Empoleon gets access to Lighting Rod which turns one of its weaknesses into an immunity leaving it only two weaknesses Fighting and Ground. As Ferrothorn and Toxapex, defensive Pokemon work best if they have a type with as much resistances, access to Defensive abilities like with Regenerator or Iron Barbs or Intimidate and access to recovery moves. Empoleon sadly lacks recovery moves so giving it Life Dew is better than nothing because it least it's helpful more in doubles.

Mega Empoleon Stats:

HP: 84

Attack: 86

Defense: 148 (Goes nicely with Steel)

Special Attack: 146 (Gives Lighting Rod a purpose)

Special Defense: 136

Speed: 30 (Worth it if you're defensive)

Pokedex Entry:

"Mega Empoleon have wings that become shields that not only conduct electricity to protecting its allies as it takes the role of the Emperor not also guides its allies in victory, though time-pacing and concentrated calculations.
