anything fakemon
here's something I made,. I'm not done yet, is it any good?
Looks like one of those old Chinese arrow dragon rockets.
>>26844987
Dragon/Fire 3 stage non-pseudo Chinese Rocket Dragon when?
I'm sorry OP, I'm sure there's some creative idea here but it looks really stupid
>>26847156
That's awesome linework, but what the fuck is that?>>26844741
It looks... Static.
Pic related is a creation of mine to an ice-themed challenge, i'm still a beginner, so tips, critics and everything is welcome!
Pure Poison legendary based on Chernobyl's Elephant Foot.
PokeDex Entries:
"Legends say those who see this Pokemon disappear soon after."
"Hundreds of years ago it roamed through Kanto, causing the majority of it's plant life to become poisonous."

Dark/Ice Krampus Pokemon. Counterpart to Delibird.
>>26850462
On it!
>>26850462
As a quick note before I start, I'm gonna assume you want them to be evolutions of Pawniard, akin to how pawns can be upgraded to other chess pieces.
>>26847156
>Tfw i will never do a lineart this cool
y liv
First evolution of a grass starter
>>26850486
Yes, exactly
>>26850462
Did a quick Google search, suprisingly no one has done that yet.
1
>>26850644
>>26850538
Second evolution
>>26850651
and 3
Honey badger
>>26850654
Final evolution
>>26850462
>>26850552
Here's the Queen. Unlike Bisharp, she has very high speed. She also has Bisharp's high attack, but her defense isn't as high.
Evolves from Female Pawniard at Level 60 while holding a Queen's Rock.
>>26850733
I assume the speed is because the queen is the most mobile piece in the game?
>>26850733
Why are you so good??? Do you have a page where you put all your art?
>>26850733
Wonderful!
>>26850462
Here's the King! Low speed and defenses, but high Attack and Special attack to make up for it. I feel like it's HP should be low too?
It could have an ability that increases it's stats if it's in a Double or Triple battle, or it's stats are increased the more Pokemon alive in the party.
>>26850768
Yep. Meant to also give the Queen sweeping capabilities, alluding to her status as the most powerful piece.
>>26850805
No, I don't. I could make a deviantArt or Tumblr page, but... those sites...
>>26850808
Thank you!
>>26851054
Tumblr isnt so bad if you just ignore all the crazies, and making pokemon is probably not something they'll target you for.
Deviantart is probably where the biggest Fakemon community is though.
>>26850462
Here's the Rook. Bulky tank. High Def/SpDef/HP but low speed. Still faster than the king. Has a lot of priority moves too, referencing how the rook "charges" in a straight line.
>>26851070
I'll probably get around to making a DeviantArt someday.
>>26850462
And finally, the knight! It would have high Attack and Defense, average speed, and low Special stats and HP.
>>26850644
>>26850651
>>26850663
But... what are they?
>>26850668
Nice
>>26850538
Cute!
>>26850654
Alright. Could use more of the yellow/pink.
>>26850671
I would have it on on all fours. Add some more color.
>>26850801
Nice!
>>26850443
Very nice!
>>26850417
Buzzy Beetle?
>>26844741
Very stiff. Give it some life.
>>26847156
Cute!
>>26847168
Great names and concepts.
>>26848399
Dem hips.
>>26849206
Very nice.
Still taking requests. It's almost 2 a.m., so I might be headed to bed soon.
>>26851381
Well, it's supposed to be a snapping turtle combined with a stahlhelm.
>>26850801
Very good
>>26850644
>>26850651
>>26850663
Why do these even keep getting posted?
>>26851490
I get that, I was in that thread. It could use some spiffing up, that's all. It's very plain and boring right now. Make the helmet more shell-like, make the face more simplified and cartoonish, more Pokemon like.
I could sketch a design for it in the morning if you'd like.
>>26851526
I will admit, the design could be alter to look more Pokemon-like. I just though I would give it a try.
Rowlet evolutions
fakedex
>>26851617
if they keep up with the circus act this might actually be what it looks like
>>26847168
It's a cool concept, but... It's a bucket. i can't get too much love to it.
>>26848399
THICC
>>26849206
The first one bugs me a bit, but the evo, Oh My.
>>26850362
Nice concept, should be brought into the pokemon style
>>26850396
Okay, this is not a pokemon, but i loike it.
>>26850409
Cute!!!
But maybe change the brown color to a bright color? i think it'd look better. Post it to us if you do!
>>26850417
I don't really get what's this.
>>26850425
>>26850438
>>26850447
has potential, but how does the second one move?
>>26850443
Well, i like it.
>>26850474
Awesome, you could work a bit on it's body though.
>>26850644
>>26850651
>>26850663
It's not bad, but what is it?
>>26850668
10/10 would catch
>>26850733
This is awesome. waitiong for the others.
>>26850801
i really like those, but you could work on the first one's "mane" and the second one's red part of the face kind of bugs me.
>>26851054
>>26851359
Great too, but the queen is still better
>>26851220
Would use. Queen Tier. I just dont like the spikes in th shoulders.
>>26851387
that's pacman.
>>26851617
woudn't mind if rowlet became this. But this is an OC thread, i believe.
>>26851625
there are some fine, some god tier, and some okay pokemon in there.
God= Jubifant, Lycarna

>Pawniard and Bisharp have nothing to do with chess besides their English names
every time
>>26851538
It's still a good attempt! Way better than a helmet with eyes.
>>26853024
Creator of the ones with the colored circle backgrounds here.
For the ones that you said could be improved, how can I improve them?
For the elephant, is it not in the Pokemon style? How? I tried making it Gen 1 styled.
For the middle eel evo, it would move like Diglett. It pops out of different rocks,
Also Pac-Man being just a stylized Pac-Man is the point, is a homage. I thought the idea was clever; it's ghost type, referencing how Pac-Man eats the ghosts but can also get killed by them. (Ghost is super effective to itself)
>>26851381
>>26853024
The Disquaste line are based on broken glass and medical waste.
>>26851513
I browse this board.
>>26850733
>>26850462
Quick fix on the Queen to make her match the others.
Taking requests.
>>26853793
Cute, reminds me of a line I did years ago.
>>26853793
>>26853793
Mocchi?
>>26853788
Oh shoot, there was a error with her hand. Fixed.
>>26853241
>Sableye's mega evolution has nothing to do with Hopkinsville Goblins
These are old.
I submitted Dragoyle for PokeAus and it was accepted but the design was changed so much I still claim it as my own. People got up in arms over it not being Rock-type. I just want it to be Normal-type because it feels like it should be Normal type.
The idea of it was it pretends to be a statue, sitting still so it can people-watch. Statues are traditionally erected of this Pokemon and placed at important entrances to remind visitors that they were being monitored.
No backstory for the other two dudes.
Here's a line I'm working on while waiting for requests. Based off cooked shrimp. Cocktail, Coconut, and Tempura.
Water -> Water/Grass -> Water/Fire ?
>>26853958
Nice!
>>26851625
not bad.
>three type box legend
this is a stupid idea but i don't really have any real issues with it
>>26853958
I did some digging and here's the PokeAus version of Dragoyle. I was mistaken, it was cut.So was every other Pokemon in there
>>26853996
Thanks.Those look cute. Are they all the same size?
>>26853860
Says who? It still has the ears and big eyes
Bisharp's Japanese name is Kirikizan, from kirikizamu (to mince) and zan (to cut or slay) and it's clearly based on samurais and sentai villains, not bishops
>>26854153
No, they aren't. I fit all my Fakes in a 1000x1000 canvas. Makes it easier when it comes time to make a dex.
Here's a really quick and rough sketch on how their sizes are compared to each other.
>>26854244
Yeah, but instead of expanding upon that idea, it literally just gets a bigger gem. It could've became a Mothman or Flatwoods Monster, but instead they made a lazy and unoriginal design.
>>26854567
1. it's not an actual evolution so that's why it's not drastically different
2. it still makes sense because goblins in fantasy are known for stealing and hoarding comically large amounts of treasure
>>26853996
Finished! Thoughts?
Still taking requests.
>>26854825
Nice
>>26854749
Uh, what? Hopkinsville goblin has nothing to do with goblins.
>>26854865
Thanks!
I'm going to dump some mons while I wait for requests.
Rock-type Calico Cat.
>>26854897
That one was a Ghost/Flying Kookaburra. Has lots of status inducing moves, meant to be a nuisance in forests.
>>26850409

Oh great, it's this crybaby again.

Grass/Dark Flatwoods Monster.
I should really get around to finishing the ones that don't have the circled backgrounds...
>>26855091
Thanks!

Cute.
>>26854969
Nice, but the Fighting type doesn't really get across.
>>26854976
>>26854986
Very nice, and very clever! I would use this one.
>>26854993
I like the concept and the first stage, but the second stage is off to me. Probably because it looks like it's wearing clothes.
>>26855021
Believable.
>>26855053
Very nice, I would use all of them.
>>26855066
>>26855073
Like I said, nice concept, but over designed. Tone it down on the details.
>>26855070
I love this line, but the final one should have a more "popped" appearance.
>>26855077
Would use in a heartbeat.
>>26855091
Very nice.
>>26855102
I like it.
>>26855142

>>26855229
Both very nice.

Funnily enough, I made my own Mega Chimecho, but this one is better than mine.
>>26855290

Yeah I wouldn't want it as a genuine pokemon, just liked the design.
>>26855073
For name, what about Seallar? (seal + dollar)
>>26855337

Grass type Pinocchio mon.
>>26844741
Nice linework and good design. It'd look awkward moving around, though.
>>26847156
Kind of uninspired, terrible palette. Vomit and purple don't go together, not to mention the red eye.
>>26847168
Fortrough is good. Buckit looks and sounds to much like a normal bucket. Make it more stylized.
>>26848399
Thicc/10
>>26849206
The first one is great both design and color wise. The patterns on the second one could be removed for something better looking.
>>26850362
Looks really good. Using it as a lore explanation for early-series awkward typing is stupid though.
>>26850396
Doesn't look even remotely like a pokemon. The way the eyes protrude beyond the body is strange, the color palette is all over the place, and having a bunch of bugs present completely detached from the anthill wouldn't work. I'll give you that it's a very good concept.
>>26850409
Very good, I like how actual fruit patterns are incorporated into the design. Barely any flaws at all.
>>26850417
I don't know where to start. First, make sure the level of detail and complexity of the design is consistent throughout. You have a shell with no features that takes up most of the design, and a small detailed eyes and mouth below. Look at the existing pokemon designs.
>>26850425
Doesn't look like it'd be a pokemon. The big, glistening eyes is not something they do a lot.
>>26850438
Pretty solid. It'd look awkward in 3D, though; I don't know if it's supposed to be round or flat and if the chunk of rock is part of the pokemon there's no way it'd move.
>>26850447
The spiky chunks of rock are unnecessary. Otherwise solid.
>>26850474
Good design, the tail being that long is unnecessary though. Maybe have the white fur going down it's chest continue and go around the legs to become a tail. And delibird shouldn't have a counterpart.
>>26850538
Maybe a little too much detail for a first stage starter, try reducing the spikes going down it's head to three and the tail spikes to two. Other than that it's good and cute. The little template it goes with is an eyesore, though, and sets up the expectation for deviantart-tier shit.
>>26850644
Maybe overly simple, but cute.
>>26850651
Clashing colors and ugly design. I can't even tell what it is. Look at the object 'mons and the way they anthropomorphize inanimate objects effectively (mostly), and take away some design principles from them. Then redo the entire stage's design.
>>26850654
Kind of bland, and the beak came out of nowhere. There should've been some sign that there was going to be a beak on Cactoad.
>>26850663
Gross and weird, not reminiscent of something you'd see in a pokemon game. Unless you want to do an edgy spinoff fangame or some shit tone down the creepiness factor.
>>26850668
I get the concept, it just feels kind of bland. A lot of it is just empty space covered in honey, and the design doesn't feel "full" so to speak. Also, try taking the approach of making it cute instead of aggressive. It reminds me of mongoose too much as it is.
>>26850671
Not terrible, but Cactoad had potential to be something more unique than a generic edgy dragon. And a lot of it is just monocolor or monocolor + white spikes.
>>26850801
I really like it. It's a unique design that manages to start out cute and end absurd (in a good way) while having a natural transition through the two. The only thing that gets lost is the style of eyes, which in general should remain consistent throughout an evolutionary line.
>>26850733
>>26851054
>>26851220
>>26851359
Very well executed as far as variations on one design go. Reminds me of the deoxys forms.
>>26851387
I get it, it's pacman, but that would never be a pokemon.
>>26856129
>>26856235
Thanks for all the criticism!
I'll fix the eyes on the baby eel. For the second evo, the rocks aren't a part of the pokemon. It sticks up out of the ground like Diglett.
I'll scrap the Anthill. Maybe come back to it some other day. The general consensus on it is that its too un-Pokemon.
>>26851617
Tone down the counterparts to real-life clothing. Generally GF tries to steer clear of that and so should you. And I can't really see it doing anything. A lot of the rowlet speculative evolution designs had a, say, archer motif, and it made sense. Barnumowl just has a design for the sake of having a design.
>>26851625
I couldn't critique them all, but some stand out as being especially inspired. I like the concept of the Santome line. I'm a sucker for esoteric-looking artificial pokemon, so the Chronotol and Mausolith lines are a favorite. For me, the Mortree, Itzodaro, and Fountank lines also stand out. Overall very solid. Armobiel's trial types is a no-no though.
>>26853747
Too many to talk about individually. The only ones I don't like are the ones shitting up the curtain and holding the framed portrait. A cat that sleeps in a fishbowl stands out as unique and cute.
>>26853793
Cute and just simple enough, although the perspective seems a tad inconsistent going from the head to the tail. Maybe that's just me though.
>>26853810
I'm sure if rendered in the right artstyle it'd look fine, but with limit drawing skills the second one looks kind of awkward. Also, I'm not sure what the little rectangles on it's knees are supposed to be. The whole line is also kind of a case of "it just gets bigger". Overall, though, the first one is cute and the second isn't unbearably bad, so I'd say it's decent.
>>26853822
The heart at the end of it's tail may be a bit much, but overall this is extremely good. Looks definitely like an actual pokemon.
>>26853958
The bug/fairy is bland, but it has such a solid design that it can get away with being bland. It doesn't need some special concept to survive, although when an actual bug/fair pokemon comes along I'd like to see it have a special concept. The ??? is nice, not outstandingly so but nice. Dragoyle is just a dragon. Like something straight out of How To Train Your Dragon. I like Dragyke better, and I think it has the potential to evolve into something that more effectively covers the gargoyle/dragon concept.
>>26853996
I think the first evo should have a little bit of decoration on it to seem less simple and the gap between the first and second evo less large. Otherwise it's good.
>>26854153
I think they did good, I like this version of Dragoyle more. It feels less like a generic small dragon and more like the concept Dragoyle was meant to be, and it lives up to the potential Dragyke had.
>>26854825
The problem lies in the first stage. Having it be half blue and completely removing that for the subsequent stages it weird. The others are very good and live up to what I'd imagine a tempura 'mon would be.
>>26854897
Without the patterns, the actual body shape is pretty bland. Try removing some of the patterns in favor of feathers or something sticking out. I like the face and eyes, though, and with a little touch up it could be extremely solid.
>>26854908
I like the idea a lot. The execution could be done better. Try starting out by having fewer spots of dirt or removing the small ones, and then go from there to make the design feel more ultimately connected.
>>26854948
Cute. Not much to say because I'm not being given much.
>>26854955
The first one is too simple to evolve into the second one. Maybe try adding a single steam emitting thing or a single tuft of fire fur onto it, to make those developments in the second stage seem more connected.
>>26854957
Cute and motherly. Make the eggs bigger, as the the thing it's holding should be a more prominent and central feature in it's design. Drop or reduce the floral pattern to one or two flowers.

Doesn't really scream 'fighting type' to me, but I can't see how an eeveelution would so for what it does it does decent. Look at the other eeveelutions, though, and note how obviously the types they're representing are represented. It could be in a more aggressive stance or something. Maybe make its design less curved and more angled, complete with some small fangs or something, to make it feel more aggressive.
>>26854975
First one is lacking. Give it actual claws instead of stumps that can't pick up anything, and make it 's actual body more recognizable. A good way to measure the effectiveness of a design is to silhouette it (hence Who's That Pokemon), and silhouetted I'd think it was a Kirby enemy before I considered it being a pokemon. The second one, on the other hand, is very solid, save maybe the lack of anything interesting going down on his feet.
These two are probably my favorite fakemon line I've ever seen.

There's at least 12 fully evolved steel types that prove you wrong.

I mean, Big Boss and his sons are fighting types so it would make sense. It would probably have a neat rail-gun related move with steel typing too, like a steel Shadow force, because it canlaunch nukes halfway around the world completely undetected

Probably a retard based on grammar, but I pretty much agree with everything he said, save the first two "lame"s (to the seaweed bulb/garden eel and the one-eyed thing I just don't have enough info about to judge). A lot of those deigns were uninspired, over-elaborated, or too contrived from the base concept for said concept to be reasonably deduced, even after hearing an explanation from the artist.. Good art and conceptual work, but both could also be a lot better all around. That being said, to offer a bit of advice to everyone ITT, having multiple distinct design inspirations instead of "pokemon-affying" concepts, or maybe just writing up an ecology for a pokemon in your head (beyond copy-pasting the base concept's stereotypical behavior) before you draw it, works wonders

Not him, but the spongebab post contained way to much "I LIEK IT" to justify a post that long, and posting with unreserved flattery without reason invites circlejerking, which is never welcome. >>26853615 is okay, but as a side note, praise without reason serves no purpose than to make people feel better about themselves, and if that was what they were looking for they wouldn't/shouldn't go on 4chan. And hell, if they were looking for relentless critisism and couldn't find it here, they're pretty much fucked. That being said,
>>26850417 is unjustified as a design, unless I'm missing something. Unless you're a fire/grass/water-type starter (which this clearly isn't), then pokemon's concepts are supposed to run deeper than animals with totally unrelated secondary traits.
Also, while I get you're probably aiming for a gen-1 aesthetic, you overdid the whole "generic-mean-monster" thing by a good distance to the point where it's starting to look more like a gen-1 era pokemon ripoff that's trying to resemble pokemon enough to sell but be generic enough that they can't get sued, like the shit on the outside of an action replay. It's not atrocious as a design (although it's not good, either), it just doesn't look like a pokemon. Next time think of ways you can integrate the two halves of the design more fluidly while having each part of the design emphasize the others, and think of the way your pokemon would navigate it's surroundings, etc, to avoid them looking awkward, as it's hard to believe this thing has a great field-of-vision by any measure. Good effort, shit results. Try again.

Are there any drawfags left in here?
If so, I would like to request a redraw of this Fakemon I did years ago. It was called Tomber (tomb + somber) and it was a Rock/Ghost type.
My drawing skills haven't improved much, so it would be nice if someone else could make it better.
>>26866257
Don't know why is it sideways. My bad.
>>26851625
Nicely done. Would play a game with these. However, it triggers me how some of the Pokémon seem to completely change types when they evolve. >>26866257
Not that bad itself, but definitely needs a redraw.

Thoughts on these legendaries?
White - Ployrism
Typings: Psychic/Fairy
Based off,
Origami, Canvas, prism, birds of colour, primary colours
Black - Monodow
Typings: Psychic/Dark
Based off,
Charcoal, Shadows, smog, grayscale
Their main role is to control the colours of the whole universe. And I'm planning to have a third legendary that is based off a artist and controls both of these legendaries.
>>26869874
Although Ployrism is borderline perfect, Monodow is mediocre in some respects, and doesn't look related to Ployrism enough; I think its current design could do with a heavy makeover, to be honest (I like the general posture and gradients, though). Also I don't get the Psychic typing on either.
Also, why would such an abstract struggle be relevant to the game's central plot? If your themes are going to be so abstract, they should either tie into real-world legendary counterparts, or represent truly universally-relevant forces, like Dialgia and Palkia's Time and Space. The later could actually work extremely well, if you had Polyrism be based on light in general and have incredibly high speed but be remarkably fragile for a legend, whereas Monodow could be based off of literal darkness and perfect black bodies (https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kdeedu/kstars/ai-blackbody.html) and be all about absorbing attacks as effectively as possible (tying into the perfect blackbody theme) and pure bulk, making the legends checks for each-other. This could lead to a scenario where Ployrism's goal is to flood the world in light whereas Monodow's is to drown it in darkness, both of which would render the world blind, making the legends globally relevant. And if I could be allowed to sperg out a little more, the villainous team could be a technological conglomerate which puts up a good front and offers for a portion of society to take refuge in deep underground bunkers (for the "light" game) or Upper-atmospheric space-stations (for the "dark" version), but secretly plots to use the emergence of either legend to enforce population control (maybe for environmentalist reasons in one game, but for Eugenics-related reasons in the other? Team Returner and Team Advance?) (cont.)
>>26869874
make give the black one some light blue into it and change the type to dark/dragon
>>26855659
This is the first fake starter I've seen where the final form is as different from the base form as real starters are. 10/10 design and concept, although the base form should look a bit more amphibious.
>>26870092
You could also expand upon the ideas of Polyrism "giving heat" in the form of light and Monodow's "absorbing heat" in the form of the energy-scattering darkness to introduce the box legend for the third version, which could be based off of Entropy (maybe a ghost/normal-type?), but to make this work you might want to make Ployrism Fairy/Fire and Monodow Dark/Ice, or at least give them secondary formes with these typings (although I think that'd be less preferable). This could also tie well into the themes with Teams Returner/Advance, showing that despite their idealistic views that would work in theory, both forget that what's truly important about nature is it's nurturing of evolution, and what's important about evolution is it's sustenance of nature: the only real future for mankind lies in the complex and convoluted grey areas in between ideals, the "Gray" between light and darkness: and that through pursuing extremely controlled advancements as a socierty, the only thing we really ascertain is the gradual loss of our human nature, the "errosion of our soul's DNA", through slight imperfections with each generational permutation, and the gradual decent into the limbo that is the Heat Death of Mankind.
Sorry for sperging out for so long, but hey, you inspired me.
>>26870092
>>26870161
Thanks for the feeback! I'll answer them. And also, thanks for the ideas! Also part 1
>Monodow is mediocre in some respects, and doesn't look related to Ployrism enough
I wanted to Monodow to be a direct contrast to Ployrism, to give the contrast between the colours and grayscale. This is also why I made the contrast to be the main theme of the legendaries. Hence why Ployrism is sharp and polygonal compared to Monodow's.
But since that you mentioned about light and black bodies. Would spheres incorporated into the design will make them more related (Similar to DP Legends)?
> I think its current design could do with a heavy makeover, to be honest
I wasn't too sure how I could work with it's design since that I was inspired by this design,
http://gyaba.deviantart.com/art/Void-Pokemon-598417457
and I didn't really want to just rip off the whole general idea of it. And I couldn't make the design that's feels and represents shadowy and overshadowing aspect of it, since that it was pretty difficult making it
>Also I don't get the Psychic typing on either.
Since that there wasn't any other type that can actually represent the light wavelength, so I thought that Psychic typing would make sense since that Light is Electromagnetic spectrum and Dark is universal physics. But since that it's electric related, I could make them both Electric/Fairy and Electric/Dark.
>Also, why would such an abstract struggle be relevant to the game's central plot?
It was more of based off the idea of the balance between the colours and grayscale.
Bird is cool.
>>26870434
Part 2
>if you had Polyrism be based on light in general and have incredibly high speed but be remarkably fragile for a legend, whereas Monodow could be based off of literal darkness and perfect black bodies and be all about absorbing attacks as effectively as possible (tying into the perfect blackbody theme) and pure bulk, making the legends checks for each-other.
You know what? I really like these ideas and actually works pretty well as ideas for these legends. And actually does serve a better idea for Monodow, for me to work on it's new design.
>This could lead to a scenario where Ployrism's goal is to flood the world in light whereas Monodow's is to drown it in darkness, both of which would render the world blind, making the legends globally relevant.
Very interesting, also a excellent idea. Makes sense to have the third legendary into it.
>The villainous team could be a technological conglomerate which puts up a good front and offers for a portion of society to take refuge in deep underground bunkers (for the "light" game) or Upper-atmospheric space-stations (for the "dark" version), but secretly plots to use the emergence of either legend to enforce population control (maybe for environmentalist reasons in one game, but for Eugenics-related reasons in the other? Team Returner and Team Advance?)
Pretty interesting, but I'm not too sure about it now since that I'm only making a dex only.
>You could also expand upon the ideas of Polyrism "giving heat" in the form of light and Monodow's "absorbing heat" in the form of the energy-scattering darkness to introduce the box legend for the third version, which could be based off of Entropy (maybe a ghost/normal-type?), but to make this work you might want to make Ployrism Fairy/Fire and Monodow Dark/Ice, or at least give them secondary formes with these typings (although I think that'd be less preferable).
Again, this is also a good ideas for the legendaries. Really like them.
Again, thanks for the feedback!

Well let's see,
I think what I meant by their not looking similar enough was just that. I think it should have a more angular look than it does, . Although I get you might've gone for the for rounded lines as a form of contrast with Ployrism, the problem is that most pokemon have that rounded look by default, so it just ends up standing out less. One obvious way to add angularity would be to stick carapace or armor-like pieces that were the same color as the skin, to keep and maybe even emphasis the monotonous fluidity. I think another cool way to integrate it, though, might be to integrate elements of angular mineral like bismuth while largely recreating the same design, which would likely yield a more unique look than the armor method, especially given that it already gives off a strange vibe despite it's relative lack of detail.
(Cont.)
>>26871118
My advice for it as a stand-alone design though would be to mix up the face somehow; it's just too bland as it is. This doesn't necessarily mean to add huge horns or anything (which would likely make it worse, if done for no reason but to occupy space), but just some quirk that'll make it look more unique while still having resemble Ployrism to some extent; it could use some more bold design choices to make it clear that it's legendary. I also think the "flames" could be better incorporated than just sticking onto the back (even something simple like the flames poring out of indents instead of being "on" the back could make a world of difference)
And I'd steer clear of gems/spheres/etc; I think they'd largely just muck up what you have going for you. I think just making sure they resemble each other in some basic but obvious ways (like Dialga and Palkia's faces, Groudon and Kyogre's eyes, Reisheram and Zekrom's tailshapes) should be more than enough, unless you deside you want to got the extra mile for whatever reason.
Oh and as far as the plot-related stuff goes, that just wandered off the trail of advice and into random aimless textwall territory, so you don't need to pay any any mind. I also want to note that I somehow missed the bit about the third legend being an artist until after I had I posted said aimless textwall, so I didn't mean to suggest it was a bad idea by suggesting another legend in spite of it.
Happy drawing!
>>26871118
>>26871132
Oh, and I also didn't mean to say making Monodow more fluid by comparison was a bad idea; I just thought that a few extra edges could add some unity to their duality.
By the way, when I wrote what I did before, I just sort of presumed these'd be the box legends. Would they be?
