unovan midwest winters are hard on her, but by arceus we make sure she's the coziest little beast this close to the great lakes. also featuring a little freak i found rattling around in my clay cupboard. it didn't attack me and i just kinda closed the door again and let it be. i have no idea where it came from or if it burst out of the clay. world's first air-dry baltoy.

I’ll be bringing this up in my coming review of Spidops but some of the official artwork looks directly traced (or even auto-generated, with a few touch-ups) from the in-game models and it damn near hurts my soul. The artwork is the “real face” of a Pokemon and typically has more personality than the 3d graphics, because the drawings and the models exist for different purposes. The models are made to function in a 3d animated game. The drawings are made to look good and represent the character. THIS DOES NOT LOOK GOOD, and it’s glaringly cheap for something that over a hundred artists on my dash every day could have done better. As I’ll also be repeating in the Spidops review, its tcg card shows how much personality its design is capable of conveying:

today on "how can I combine my interests": variations of volcarona based on stellar classification!

actual stars are classified based on their spectral characteristics and temperature/color from hottest (bluest) to coldest (reddest) with a strangely ordered letter system: O, B, A, F, G, K, M... why not do the same for this stellar moth?

some other info:

  • o-type volcarona are incredibly rare and are considered "shiny" pokemon
  • m-type volcarona can come in the largest variety of sizes from large enough to easily carry a person to about the size of a cat
  • k-type volcarona are the most common, with the higher temperature ones becoming increasingly more rare (and m is about as rare as g)
  • while there could be b- and a-type volcarona between o and f, the latter two are so rare that there's no reason to split the categories up further
  • alder's volcarona is the g-type one shown here, and the m-type one belongs to cyrus in my au
  • the pupa/cocoon stage is too short relative to the other two stanges to be considered its own separate evolutionary stage like other similar bug type pokemon

a few years back, lockstin on youtube made a video coming up with ideas for a physical counterpart to eevee, making a lizard thing. i decided to do my take on it!!! THIS TOOK A REALLY LONG TIME!!!!!!!! dex entires under the cut!!!

Lately, I’ve been hard at work building my own fakedex and feel bad having nothing to show for it. Here’s a 4-way split evolution family, each evo is based on a card suit and an insect order that have larvae! Visually inspired by particular families as well :]

I've been working on my personal fakemon region on and off and wanted to show off this line that I just finished! Gnourly and Trollicious are based off of gnomes, trolls, icing, and various kinds of cake. Gnourly evolves into Trollicious depending on its icing color. These guys were super fun to design and I'm very happy with their concept!
