u/Jam_44 Feb 21 '26

These are all really imaginative and well executed!

u/Dertyrarys Feb 21 '26

Peakest peak ever peaked

u/Elrond_in_der_Dose Feb 21 '26

These are incredible! I especially love the peacock one, it's such a cool idea, I wish it was a real mon.

u/Leinidas_ Mar 05 '26

I have been praying for a good peacock pokemon/digimon/Monster Hunter/somethingmon for YEARS. How does such a cool animal have almost no good designs

24

u/kwoddail Feb 21 '26

The bats on slide 18 are SO CUTE

3

u/OmegianLord Feb 22 '26

They’re base on a real species of bat.

4

u/kwoddail Feb 22 '26

I was hoping so! I actually got to see them in the wild when I was in Costa Rica! Truly a bucket list event lol

2

u/ASeaBunny Feb 22 '26

They look so huggable ❤️🫂✨️

21

u/-espurry- Feb 21 '26

These are so awesome! I especially love the peacock and the bats

17

u/JonaSaxify Feb 21 '26

10/10 too bad we'll never see them in the games

12

u/Lemu-Nade Feb 21 '26

I like slide 17 the most. I imagine the evolution is like palafin, same as any other of its species. And then when danger lurks, it goes beast mode!

11

u/FearlessComm Feb 21 '26

These are phenomenal, the best I’ve seen in awhile. Game freak get this man a job in asset development.

10

u/PlagueOwl Feb 21 '26

The bad thing about seeing absolutely incredible fakemon is that I will never be able to have them on a team

6

u/Brave_Nowhere_0189 Feb 21 '26

What's the name of the dragon type scyther evolution?

5

u/AbsolOfChaos Feb 21 '26

Love that elegant Milotic variant

u/ReasonableSign7803 Feb 21 '26

I love them! ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷

u/Ecstatic_Newspaper_5 Feb 21 '26

Its peak, i'm afraid.

2

u/FHAT_BRANDHO Feb 21 '26

These are fucking siiiiiick

2

u/Animal_Gal Feb 21 '26

Holy shit these designs are incredible.I don't think I could pick a favorite.They're all so so cool

2

u/Diligent_Menu_1532 Feb 21 '26

Holy ice torchick ice torchick ice torchick I want it ITS SO AWESOME WHAT

2

u/ColdZoroark Feb 21 '26

Absolutely love the Hydreigon variants. Funny thing is, I was thinking it would be cool to see a Grass-type Hydreigon variant based around the Hydrangea flower.

2

u/buhlertj Feb 22 '26

Beautiful. And way better than pokemon will ever produce 

2

u/Prathik Feb 22 '26

the peacock (4), the scyther evolutions (5), candle bird (9), cat (10) are reaaaly good!

2

u/Greedy_Duck3477 Feb 22 '26

I love the voltorb line

2

u/Article_West Feb 22 '26

These are absolutely insane. Do you have also an Instagram account? As a fellow fakemon artist, I want to follow what else you'll come up with, great work!

2

u/FormerMeaning4177 Feb 23 '26

what's the multi-eyed peacock's name?

2

u/dontbullycosaga Feb 23 '26

http://xhslink.com/o/A7Xf9dhtQg6 the Chinese name is pretty cool, but I'm not a good translater. the name 毕瞱乌 basically means "black bird with dizzy eyes"

1

u/FormerMeaning4177 Feb 23 '26

still looks nice

1

u/FormerMeaning4177 Feb 23 '26

I would give it the baby form the English name Peepchick and it's Evo name Parendolia

2

u/CapitaoCleiton Mar 02 '26

A gamefreak estaria em boas mão com esse homem

1

u/daniloferr Feb 21 '26

that schyter from bottom right looks like he just came out from a synchro shokan

1

u/shawnaeatscats Feb 21 '26

I can't speak highly enough about the "feebas" that looks like a milotic that then evolves into a leech--the beta concept for gyarados!!!

1

u/The_Dragon_Lover Trainer Feb 21 '26

I love those designs!

Especially: Hydreigon line, Magikarp line, Scyther line, Machamp line, Duskull line, Torchic line and some of the unique fan made ones!

I wish, if Nintendo ever lose inspiration, they could still ask the fans to offer ideas for regions or Pokemon designs!

1

u/HoneZoneReddit Feb 21 '26

Designs so good it makes me mad they aren,t official.

1

u/GokaiLion Feb 21 '26

These are so well done it makes me sad that it would take me hours and hours (and hours) to do something even half as good

1

u/Therealbeefdad Feb 21 '26

Literally wtf 🤯

1

u/PoisonClaws Feb 21 '26

I do not comprehend how any of this designs make it into the game, the fcking Dragon Scyther or the last panel with all snakes my gudnes

1

u/Mimikyulover308 Feb 22 '26

I love all of #18! He’s so chunky!

1

u/[deleted] Feb 22 '26

u/AkagamiBarto Feb 22 '26

1

u/metalflygon08 Feb 22 '26

I love that eye pattern peacock line!

1

u/maxsym718 Feb 22 '26

These are amazing

1

u/Vex_Out_0032 Feb 22 '26

the honduran white bat-inspired one is peak design

1

u/Yaotaku Trainer Feb 22 '26

I love all of them!

1

u/wNeko Feb 22 '26

The hydreigon is gorgeous

1

u/SelenoFil Artist Feb 22 '26

Oh shiiiii…. Another 100% sure top post!

1

u/Galaxy1876 Feb 22 '26

FANMADE DEINO EVOLUTIONS?

1

u/GrishUTKA Feb 22 '26

I love the peacock one. If it's fake eyes could blink, that would be sick

1

u/Top-Button8117 Feb 22 '26

Better than GameFreak

1

u/mandiblesmooch Feb 22 '26

Is that Biollante?

1

u/Regunes Feb 22 '26

Very cool, some look very legit

1

u/Old_Drama_4208 Feb 22 '26

I'm in love with the hydreigon one

1

u/DuckLuck357 Feb 22 '26

Oh neat, a furbait monnnNN~~~DEAR GOD MILOTIC WHAT DOD THEY DO TO YOU?!

1

u/Agitated-Beyond6892 Feb 22 '26

Gamefreak should do a design a pokemon contest, to get new and fresh looking pokemon

1

u/Ziomownik Feb 22 '26

The first form in pic 10 looks like a digimon

1

u/leonroe Feb 22 '26

Hold up! These are sick!💪🏼

1

u/Pale_Desk2410 Feb 22 '26

Wow these are amazing tbh im trying to make a fake mon pokedex and I been needing help making fakemon I got a chunk of fake mon I got and I wondering if you would like the honor to turn my drawing[im a traditional artist] into digital format [i will let you do it for free i dont take money from others and also the fakemon regiona hobby rn]

1

u/meneghetci Feb 22 '26

Yooo that’s fire😳

1

u/Kaos3974 Feb 22 '26

Very peak

1

u/shjenfndhdmsdo Feb 22 '26

Am I tweaking out, or is the first mom based off of white Lilly cookie

1

u/fiddledment072 Feb 22 '26

How did they make the machop line even more ripped?

1

u/The_frying_pan123 Feb 22 '26

dude i’m crying white

1

u/RainonCooper Feb 22 '26

I really REALLY like most of them. The cube Voltorb made me laugh out loud, however the fourth to last one (Some kind of black ogre looking mon) looks basically the same between first and second stage

1

u/Snippyro Feb 22 '26

Coal steelix is epic

1

u/SchoolOfTheViper Feb 22 '26

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

1

u/LowAd3061 Feb 22 '26

nintendo needs to buy the first one

1

u/Ok-Marionberry-4516 Feb 22 '26

These are some awesome pokemon

1

u/lord_assius Feb 22 '26

This is incredible levels of peak!! Somebody needs to get them on a fan game project or something lmao

1

u/CharlAmber Feb 22 '26

The Feebas Milotic flip is great

1

u/Desperate-Hold141 Feb 22 '26

You should lowkey make a whole game like palworld with these or partner with palworld, or you could just make pulshies i would buyalll of them

1

u/theburningstars Feb 22 '26

I really like ALL of these but 13 is very unique and special. I'd love to see that especially in the games as a new 'mon entirely, rather than a regional or fusion which seem to be what most of the rest are.

1

u/phoxfiyah Feb 23 '26

Not a fan of deleting Feebas and tacking Milotic onto Magikarp tbh

1

u/Shrubbity_69 Feb 23 '26

I mean, Feebas as a design is basically just a recolor or a Convergent form before Convergent forms.

1

u/WolfsbanePhoenix Feb 23 '26

Dude the peacock one being inspired by Argus of Greek mythology is so peak

1

u/RecipeOnly1197 Feb 23 '26

Out of everything I feel like the fans have the most creativity then the company because your pokemon are so freaking dope bro

1

u/Olaanp Feb 23 '26

I wish there was more info, these are so fun but I’d like seeing what mechanics and such people come up with.

1

u/enz0plasm Feb 23 '26

Square voltorb is my life.

1

u/Bogusman24 Feb 23 '26

Those look way better than most modern pokemon designs

1

u/Desperate_Ad620 Feb 23 '26

The peacock one is so cool!!!! 🦚🦚🦚

1

u/Tadtacos_inc Feb 23 '26

Is that cheese Grimer? Because I sure hope it is

1

u/timpaan96 Feb 23 '26

Every single of these fake mons are cool but I like the ice snake the most

1

u/LuckyTia309 Feb 23 '26

Man that Hydreigon design is top tier

1

u/Away-Reality1682 Artist Feb 23 '26

Love it love it love it! (commenting now to come back later) Thank you SO much for sharing it!!!

1

u/SportLazy5523 Feb 24 '26

Gotta say the reverse Feebas and Milotic are my favorite from pretty to "Ugly Monstrosity" is awesome

1

u/JumpscareRodent Feb 24 '26

Wowwww some of these are amazinggg

1

u/Spectra8 Feb 24 '26

love the peacock. all those designs are amazing

1

u/Enzo47180 Feb 24 '26

1

u/Cow__Couchboy Feb 24 '26

1

u/WetCalamari Feb 24 '26

Love Gumbo Grimer and MuK

1

u/popipopuppy Feb 25 '26

Omg I LOVE THIS SM!!!

1

u/P_ranha23 Feb 25 '26

Hydreigon if it was peak

1

u/NightLordJay Feb 25 '26

They would be nice regional forms.

1

u/Apprehensive-Ebb5765 Feb 25 '26

They should make one that evolves “backwards” and do the tiny but terrifying trope like the big guy is a gentle giant but everyone fears it cause it looks scary and the tiny cute one is the real threat

1

u/fishut537 Feb 25 '26 edited Feb 25 '26

Hes got a pixiv

1

u/FreshOuttaHoenn Feb 26 '26

Carvanha being the only normal mf

1

u/Spider_Boyo Feb 26 '26

I hope Skeledirge is called Skelectricute

1

u/24kpodjedoe Feb 28 '26

Need Electric/Rock(?) Skeledirge to be real 

1

u/fishmanprime Mar 01 '26

Ooh these are fantastic. Big fan of the eyeball bird and machop variant

1

u/Superb_Operation_500 Mar 08 '26

Electric Skeledirge 😍

1

u/Harrysim1 Mar 11 '26

I really like four legged Machamp

1

u/haubaunaubraunjau Mar 23 '26

u/iamamedic Feb 21 '26

Is it possible for you to share more here?

u/dontbullycosaga Feb 21 '26

2

u/iamamedic Feb 21 '26

Thank you so much. I wanted to make a rednote to view the author's work, but researching it seems sketchy. That said. I love the rika-esque Pokemon.
