Typhlosion Attitude
Mostly-finished original starter Pokémon designs.
The basic idea was to find a rock-paper-scissors trio similar to Fire-Water-Grass, and I managed to come up with Dark-Psychic-Fighting. I also wanted them to evoke old Gen I-II designs.
The Dark starter is inspired by the crested rat, and opossums. It becomes Dark/Fire when it evolves. The Fighting starter is based on hedgehogs and porcupines. It becomes Fighting/Electric when it evolves. The Psychic starter is basically a dragon- I haven’t really been inspired by the idea so far... I need to come up with something new to make the line more interesting.
They don’t have names yet, but I’m really happy with how they look so far. I’d add color, but I want that Ken Sugimori watercolor look, and I don’t think I could pull that off without an art tablet (I’ve never been able to afford one). SOMEBODY BUY ME A FRIGGIN TABLET ALREADY GAH
