I love the rotund rodent so gave them a stick for being so precious #Pokemon #Fakemon #FanArt #TraditionalArt

My reasoning behind Bibenki's design update was quite simple, really: I could make him rounder, chonkier, more of an orb... we have the technology

My reasoning behind Bellily's design update was that the original art felt real stiff and unfinished IMO, so it needed another round in the oven- The only major change is that now Bellily has visible legs, which I think helps further differentiate it from Floette!

For funsies ill explain my reasonings behind each design update: I felt like Submersibug's initial design was too clunky and jumbled looking. Also, I didn't like how its bubble was just solid blue; I wanted more details of its interior to be seen, so I tweaked it!

Convergent Pokémon can be found in the Laken region as well! Shucklin resembles Applin, but is an entirely unrelated species! Its split evolutions are also quite different from Flapple and Appletun! Part of my Great Lakes fakemon pokedex project!

Which of these fishy friends will you evolve your Lurefry into in the Laken region! For some reason I see these guys being the symbols used for compasses lol #Pokemon #Fakemon #FanArt #TraditionalArt

There are four Great Lakes in the Laken region. Lurefry will evolve into a different form depending on which of these lakes it was caught in! 🎣 Part of my Great Lakes fakemon pokedex project!

To gain the item needed to evolve Antinder, I imagine there being an maze-like nest in the overworld you can explore- you gotta avoid getting spotted by Antinder or they’ll toss you back to the entrance! But, if you can reach the deepest depths you’ll find the Royal Kindling!

freaky muppet victreebel lol????

My biggest fear rn with my fakemon project is Gen 10 coming along next year, introducing new Pokémon that make a bunch of my fakemons redundant. ESPECIALLY if it's a starter. I'll be so sad if like they introduce a Water snake starter and ill have to scrap Hissyfit :(

In the Lihani region, you'll be facing a childhood friend throughout your journey, your rival Niko! A stubborn cookie with professor sized shoes to fill, he has a big smile and an even bigger love for Pokémon battles!

- blizzardkitty (Toyhouse) - @billspooks.bsky.social - danthezanyman (danthezaniestman on IG)

In the Lihani region, you will be entrusted with a Fakémon starter by Professor Narra! A former champion and researcher of the Harmora phenomenon, she'll need your help with her studies.

Lynn is the parent of either Ryver or Brooke, depending on which of the two protagonists you choose to play as!

Meet the Pokémon trainer protagonist/s of Lihani, Alejandro and Andrea! They've moved back to the region to take on the Emblem Challenge with a childhood friend. Depending on the version, they may start with either the Horizon or Sea Breeze outfit!
