  4. Next Fakemon spam: the Gym Leaders

    Like Prisma, they’re based on colours. Rather than being based on a prism/the rainbow, they’re based on a combination of the RGB and CYMK systems. The K stands for Key, which is black, whereas combining the three primary colours in RGB causes white. They use Pokémon of many colours, as their colour is reflected by their type and their ace. Their names, the rest of their team, and the team of their gym trainers are related to their type instead.

    The way the region is ordered, you must defeat Katherine first and Raven (tentative name) last. Gyms 2-4 can be challenged in any order, and after you defeat all three Gyms, you can challenge Gyms 5-7 in any order, before battling with Nick

    White – Normal – Katherine (name relates to purity)
    Red – Fire – Aiden (means little fiery one)
    Green – Grass – Levi (sounds like leaves)
    Blue – Water – Marissa (relates to the sea)
    Cyan – Flying – Claude (sounds like cloud)
    Magenta – Psychic – Delphine (Oracle of Delphi)
    Yellow – Electric – Electra (lame name but it’s Greek and the region is based on Greece, but rn it’s also tentative)
    Black – Dark – Nick (from the Greek Goddess of night, Nyx)

    Sorry for spam but I’m bored and waiting for a good on topic comment to reply to

  9. Last bit of Fakémon spam for tonight.

    A new Pokémon developed by Prisma! Metem!

    It’s a Normal-type feline/canine hybrid, and has nine evolved forms!

    Prisma would like to remind you that any similarities to existing Pokémon species is strictly due to designing the creature with the basis of mirroring one of nature’s most scientifically potent organisms and not due to any insidious procedures, and also that they will assist in uncovering the sudden disappearance of domestic and wild Eevee!
