  3. Spooky Regional Form!
    Slavian Dusknoir
    Ghost/Steel
    A trainer from a far away regiom released left two Dusclops alone on a scrapyard in the Slavy region. Out of vengance, they absorbed many machine parts and Evolved into half-robot Dusknoirs that looked for its cruel trainer so they can devour him, but he escaped. Today when a Dusclops in Slavy evolves, it’s half-robot too and looking for that one cruel trainer.

    (Evolves from Dusclops when given Machine Parts (an item))

    Reply
    • I’ve got a few issues with it

      – If it’s the Dusclops that did the actual adaption, it doesn’t make sense they stay the same.

      – idk, I know AkoRaichu is design over reason but something about this just doesn’t rub me the right way. Ghosts can pretty much go wherever they want, so why would they stay in the scrapyard when normal Dusknoir is resourceful enough to hunt someone down? Especially when their existing form isn’t hindered by corporeal machine parts. At least AloChu has fan theories and has the excuse of being the mascot’s evo

      – I don’t think it’s either subversive, referential, or expected enough to be justified. Like, Maro/Exegg/Rai are all references to something involving the Pokémon, whilst Ninetales and Persian reflect real life changes, whilst Sandslash is so subversive that it works. Idk, most of this is just my opinion

      Reply
      • -Dusclops managed to evolve using Machine parts instead of Reaper Cloth
        -They needed to become more powerful to chase the trainer down, they needed to evolve and there wasn’t any Reaper Cloth near by
        -It’s kinda based on Haunted Animatronics/Robots and it seems fitting for me, as Dusclops is known for being hollow and devouring objects

        Reply
        • But it was only these two Dusclops that managed to evolve by using the machine parts so I don’t find sensible how every other Dusclops now learns how to do it just because 😡

          And it doesn’t really fit with Dusclops’ lore or the Pkm at all just like Seraphu said

          Reply
          • They weren’t any other Duskull/clops/noir in the Slavy region. They are all descendants of these two half-robot Dusknoir

          • Dusclops have simple thoughts and can devour anything. They felt the need for vengence, so they absorbed Machine parts to get stronger and managed to evolve with them instead of a Reaper Cloth because there weren’t any Reaper Clothes near by.

    • *shivering violently* d-dude…. that’s not… how dusknoir works… it drags people into the spirit world… ITS LITERALLY THE LAST FUCKING GHOST THAT WOULD EVER BECOME PART STEEL!! WHY WOULD SOMETHING THAT ESSENTIALLY CONNECTS ANOTHER REALITY GROUND ITSELF MORE IN A PHYSICAL FORM?!

      Reply
    • To be honest, I think the idea might work better of it starts from Duskull. Imagine like a cool rusty mask instead of its skull mask

  4. Fakemon concept that’s gonna be torn to shreds because I hate myself

    Illian Solosis line

    Electric/Steel-type, based on an individual metal atom, then a metallic lattice. It’s physically inclined rather than specially. Solosis is a grey metallic orb with some red and green details, in the middle of a glowing yellow aura, surrounded by small blue orbs. Duosion is a larger steel orb with a much smaller orb attached above it and another attached under it. Reuniclus follows this design theme, having arms made of these metallic orbs and an electrical aura. Has the abilities Plus and Minus, and the Hidden Ability Repulsion, which immediately inflicts Magnet Rise on all Steel and Electric-types upon switching in.

    They fled underground to avoid Diurnal Arabolas, their greatest predator in Illiux. They began absorbing metallic minerals through their membrane, and eventually emerged as magnetic creatures themselves. It has noticeably taken over the absent Magnemite’s role in Illiux.

    Diurnal Arabolas is a large, cowboy themed bolas spider, Bug/Dark. It uses its thread as a lasso.

  5. Pokedex Number: 187
    Pinchirellla
    Classification: The Floating Crab Pokemon
    Height: 1’03
    Weight: 1.3 Lbs
    Typing: Water/Flying
    Ability: Opportunistic
    Stats:
    HP: 41
    Attack: 110
    Defense: 37
    Special Attack: 33
    Special Defense: 53
    Speed: 61
    Base Stat Total: 335
    Pokedex Entry: Despite their fearsome appearance, Pinnchirella are extraordinarily timid. They will rarely enter combat unless their life is at stake. Escape and attack methods consist of creating a draft to blow themselves skyward to gain an aerial advantage. If they choose to attack, they will search for a weak spot on the target to pierce. When it evolves, this attacking trait is unchanged as the Pokemon grows much deadlier…

    Pokedex Number: 188
    Guilosol (Guillotine-parasol)
    Classification: Pokemon
    Height: 3’06
    Weight: 11.4 Lbs
    Typing: Water/Flying
    Ability: Opportunistic
    Stats:
    HP: 53
    Attack: 150
    Defense: 52
    Special Attack: 69
    Special Defense: 81
    Speed: 90
    Base Stat Total: 495
    Pokedex Entry: Guliosol are known to reside within sand dunes along the beach. They prefer bigger sizes because it lessens the amount of energy needed to make a wind draft, pushing them skyward. The draft they create allows them to reach and glide at high altitudes . When they see prey, they will stop creating the draft and brutally fall onto the foe in a corkscrew fashion with their claw. It is said a single hit could crack the shell of a Blastoise in one blow

    Opportunistic: All two turn attacks by the user will result in critical hits on their turns of impact.

    In a battle of weirdness, nobody outdoes me ;3

  6. Decided to ditch my previous concept for Regional Rhyperior for a Rock/Fairy one based on extremalnie endared Rhinos hunted for their horns used for Healing purposes

  7. Pokedex Entry: 147
    Candief
    Classification: The Candy Lover Pokemon
    Height: 1’04
    Weight:
    Type: Ghost/Fairy
    Ability: Candy Crook/Kleptomaniac
    Stats:
    HP: 20
    Attack: 50
    Defense: 20
    Special Attack: 20
    Special Defense: 30
    Speed: 100
    Base Stat Total: 240
    Pokedex Entry: This ghostly pokemon has an unhealthy obsession for sweet tasting goods and prioritizes them over almost anything else. This childlike pokemon is good at using its cuteness to win over its target in order to take what it desires. For, rather obvious reasons, it tends to get along extraordinarily well with children. It is rather cowardly in personality.

    Evolves Level 27 when a rare candy is used on it. (Note: This Candy can be used to get it to level 27)

    Pokedex Entry: 147
    Sugurglar
    Classification: The Sweet Snatcher Pokemon
    Height: 2’01
    Weight: 36.2
    Type: Ghost/Fairy
    Ability: Candy Crook or Kleptomaniac (Deciding between these two names
    Stats:
    HP: 60
    Attack: 100
    Defense: 50
    Special Attack: 60
    Special Defense: 75
    Speed: 120
    Base Stat Total: 465
    Pokedex Entry: Although its personality has not changed, its desire for sweets has only increased. It has changed from using charm to take its desired things to flat out stealing; an art it is extremely proficient in. Unlike its pre-evolution, Candief, this Pokemon is rather brave and will fight if it is necessary. It uses its blinding speed to circle around its opponent before striking whenever it sees an opening.

    Candy Crook/Kleptomaniac: If this Pokemon is on the field with any other pokemon that has a berry or candy item, it steals it and takes the effect.

    Wow I meant to post that in my last comment
    Anyways happy Halloween!

    Defense: 107
    Sp. Attack: 40
    Sp. Defense: 100
    Speed: 40
    BST: 438

    Description: a tumbleweed with thorns weaved info it, so it looks like a spiked ball. Through the tumbleweed you can see the small, light brown earth Elemental inside. It resembles a small humanoid figure with green eyes. It’s almost gnome like, but not totally. It’s grinning in a cocky way.

    Infrared: Although it’s normally very slow, the slightest hint of wind or a descent will send it charging in all directions.

    Ultraviolet: Ancient peoples considered it a fickle desert spirit. It drops fruit from its tumbleweed, yet sometimes charges after the now vulnerable receiver.

    Ability: Rough ‘n’ Tumble
    Doubles attack power in a Tailwind or mysterious air current

    Ability: Drifter
    Gains an immunity to Flying-type moves, and speed is raised every time it’s hit by one.

  10. Another Regional form
    Slavian Rhyperior
    Steel/Ground
    People say that in a war long time ago people gave a mechanical Protector to Rhydon to make its evolution more weaponized. From that time all Rhydon in Slavy are given Mechanical Parts instead of regural Protectors. They produce Big metal bullets in their arms, so they can shoot from their hands without finding boulders.

    Ability: Living Tank/Cannon Fire
    Living Tank
    Its Defence, Sp Defence and Attack stats can’t be lowered
    Cannon Fire
    All bullet/missle/shooting moves are stronger and are more likely to hit.

  11. Seeing as it is Halloween, I am dressed up, and I haven’t posted my picture here before I am posting myself right now. I am dressed as a Team Rocket Grunt if that is not obvious. Let me know what you all think. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/dc702d2df440d994d9d22a86396f3ad92edee3addc6551e88292a4121865bd14.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/dc5abc88256dc732051777e7d0a9b80ad9dab37a81c8940ebfe8acf8f81200f6.jpg
    Haven’t shaved recently so I will do that soon. Contrary to my username I think I look a bit dark rather than sunny.

  12. Background on Candief and Sugurglar

    Candief is the spirit of a child who perished on Halloween. It’s desire to be alive again and its refusal to ditch the only part of its personality it retains (its childishness) lead it to seek candy, a constant reminder of its past. It will frequently play mischievous tricks to get candy but never acts out of malice. Once it evolves, it’s obsession with candy increases and FORCES it to have a constant supply or it is drowsy and unable to function. This leads to it peformimg any deed, no matter how vile, to get candy. It is possible to ween it off candy but it still needs constant sweetness regardless

      • That was a fun one to design
        Think about a white featureless creature kinda like a chao from sonic, two nub like arms and legs and a small reptile tail and big eyes and antenna but it’s tail is stabbed into the ground and from the tip is a crude 2d shadow with angry eyes constantly following it, the shadow feels the pain of its host so it doesn’t allow it to be harmed, slinking from the shadows to strike anywhere

        The body barely acknowledges its shadow’s efforts (it’s a very…oblivious Pokemon) when night falls the shadow grows its strongest but is still like linked to the body so it can’t roam around

        Reply
    • Mine are:
      Vimpere-Fire/Ghost a Vampire Viper Final starter evo
      Decapitis-Bug/Ghost a male Mantis with its head bitten off after mating
      Firit-Ghost/Fire an Autumn Flame Ghost with two forms (Soul form and Nightmare form)
      Hauntdrawn -> Artialize-Ghost to Ghost/Normal a Ghost that used its Art to make itself a physical body
