Mega Scovillain [WIP]

Mega Scovillain [WIP]

Quick idea I had for a Mega Scovillain! I was thinking about how most mega/evo concepts add a third head and was wondering if I could come up with a different route. So instead, the 2 heads fuse together into 1!

Fidough & Croquempooch [WIP]

Fidough & Croquempooch [WIP]

This one started as a regional form but I couldn't come up with a type or unique design for Fidough, so I just decided to have this be an alternate evolution instead. Introducing Croquempooch! Based on croquembouche, a French dessert. Only reason I landed on this direction is because the croissant idea has been done before... and the baguette bo...

Kalosian Milcery & Macaremie

Kalosian Milcery & Macaremie

Finished! Barely just in time for ZA's release date lol

Ended up removing the drizzle on the top of the hat/shell because it felt too cluttered and reduced the recognizability of the macaron parts in my eyes. Theoretically it would have multiple other flavor colors with all possible combinations of sweets, but I don't have time for all tha...

Kalosian Milcery & Macaremie [Final Sketch]

Updated take on the previous sketch of this design! I think I'm happy enough with it to call it final, so rendering comes next. Plus various different flavor forms just like the original Alcremie!

(Recap from previous post)

Will be doing a little mini-series inspired by ZA this month. All signs are pointing to no Kalosian regional fo...

Kalosian Milcery & Macaremie [WIP]

We are so back 🫡

Will be doing a little mini-series inspired by ZA this month. All signs are pointing to no Kalosian regional forms so it's my job now!! Starting out with an egg-based Milcery and a regional evolution named Macaremie, based on macarons! (which are meringue-based, hence the egg theming of Milcery). Probably Fairy/Rock wit...

Yorica Starters, but Crunchy

Yorica Starters, but Crunchy

Happy October!! Finally back and I'm definitely feeling a little more refreshed. Here's something a bit different from the usual that I was working on, sprites! Fun fact, my first ever art program was MS Paint and I actually started out doing dinky little Gen 5-style Fakemon sprites when I was like, 10. Always fun to go back and try pixel art ev...

Billing Pause For Sept 2 - Oct 2

Hi everyone! Just writing a status update, I'll be taking a break from updating my page this month to rest and recharge! A few months back I got a job working on creature designs for a game project (which I'm not allowed to share unfortunately), so I've been a bit stretched thin lately and figured it was time for a break. I've paused bil...

Elemental Regis

Elemental Regis

Another set of old commissions I did in ~2021 but never posted - Grass, Fire, and Water type Regis! No clue why I did so many different concept sketches for them lol, but they are neat to look back at. Now if I remember right... Water was designed after a water molecule with hurricane-shaped hands, Grass was designed after ancient plants like fe...

Mega Victreebel

Finally, another new Mega to draw!! Might try to make a series out of this for all the future Megas, maybe. Anyway I felt pretty indifferent to Mega Victreebel when I first saw it, but it really started to grow on me after I saw it hop around in the gameplay trailer lol. What a freak!!

(Also threw in the WIP Mega Dragonite I started a whil...

Regional Hattrem Line

Regional Hattrem Line

Another one of the commissions I did back in the day but never posted - a Hattrem regional form/evolution based on the tree octopus hoax!! Final stage was designed to look like a tree on top of being octopus-like lol. Not sure what actually came of these guys or if they were ever used in a region project or anything, but at least you can see em ...

Regional Impidimp Line

I was looking through some old files and stumbled upon these fellas, a gargoyle-themed regional variant/evolution for Impidimp that I designed as a commission back in 2022. I never did share them publicly but I figured here would be a great place for them! I do have a couple more commission designs from this time period I never posted either, so...

Yorica: Gym Leader Moira

Yorica: Gym Leader Moira

Another trainer design I cooked up a while back, this time a Ghost-type leader for the region! Since its a California region, having a Hollywood (aka Pokestar Studios) section of a Los Angeles-inspired city is a must, and we figured it would make for fun theming for a gym leader. Moira here is a famous horror movie director and her gym would hav...

Time for the final evolutions!

These have been in the works for SO long so I'm happy to finally say they're done!! And now that you've seen their final forms, I'm wondering if your starter choice has changed at all! Were they what you expected or did they surprise you?

Surprise! We're planning a region map too!! I originally wasn't even going to do one, but I got convinced lmao.

Mega Dragonite [WIP]

A little WIP piece of fanart this time to celebrate the momentous occasion!!! I actually quite like Mega Dragonite... I was a little lukewarm on it at first because I thought it seemed a little bland, plus I really dislike the official render of it. But seeing it again in-game and in fanart helped it grow on me. Curious to know what you guys thi...

Yorica: Capyterra [WIP]

An older design I forgot to share! One of my personal favorites and a pretty simple little guy - Capyterra! A little Ground type capybara made of soil! We had this dumb idea where it becomes a stack of capybaras as it evolves lmao

Since the starter sketches have been super scattered around, heres's a quick recap of the starters, now finalized! Only thing that's really new are the Grass and Water middle stages. We kept going through a billion different designs for them but I'm happy to say we finally settled! Now it's just time for the final renders, 4/9 done so far. 🫡<...

Just wondering... which starter are you choosing? (Poll)

Now that these guys are 100% fully and completely done, for real this time, I'm curious to know which of the three you'd choose in a hypothetical game. And explain why down below if you'd like, I'd love to hear your reasoning! 👀

Yorica: Cookreep & Lifetover [WIP]

A really dumb idea I had - haunted fortune cookie and Chinese takeout box, complete with receipt! The idea came from learning that fortune cookies were invented in California, which led to a general theme of American Chinese food tropes. Which brings us to Cookreep and Lifetover, pure Ghost types! I don't do obect-based designs nearly as often a...

Staryu Line Ultra Variant? [WIP]

Some more rough sketches today, it's a bit of an out-there idea but hear me out!!

Ultra variants of the Staryu line based on sci-fi starships and comets? I'm thinking of a spacey overall vibe for each of them - a falling star Staryu, spiral galaxy Starmie, and a sleek starship as a new evolution. Tentatively I have it jotted down for Ultra...
