Disclaimer: I do not recommend searching for anything on DeviantArt, especially while at work; because the last thing you need is to be fired from your job for accidentally viewing art of a car with beasts loving a horse. I goggled "Fanemon" and the first link was a hash tag search on deviantart. Here are some of the cooler drawings and/or concepts I found while scrolling around. Alternate evolution!   Neat ways to get type combos to work conceptually!    Just great design space usage!     Dono about you gently caress-o's but I'd let Wanana and Globber onto my team anyday.

Koalas preserve their ecological niche p. much by being the only animal that can live off the stuff. Of course it's not a diet that allows for much activity, which is why they're such lazy little shits. Stupid entitled drop bears. They go like loving greased lightning on the ground though.

Lord Koth posted:Eh, plenty of people have a bad tendency to hoard their master ball indefinitely anyways - "But what if I need it later?" syndrome - so them forgoing the free one isn't really that bad on its own. Besides, real players want their team to match and catch everything they want to use in premium balls (or dusk). I try to have different balls for each, they look cooler  Also Backhoedragon is now our main pokeman. We must use him now and forever because he is a loving backhoedragon.

freshlybaked posted:Is that 'official'? I don't like it but it's only a bit more grim that some other Ghost Pokemon dex entries. Then again, the design is so tied (chained?) to the concept that you can't really distance them. Yes. It's on their Wiki. It also evolves when traded into a literal angry spirit of vengeance that wants to rage out against the person who let it die and looks like black goop flooding out of the orifices of the substitute doll.

TooMuchAbstraction posted:If I recall correctly it was more like "these are ordinary valueless doors, with an enchantment on them that causes them to behave exactly like adamantium unless they're removed from the dungeon." Which always struck me as kind of a cop-out, but I guess you need that kind of thing to keep the players from just disassembling the entire dungeon using high-yield mining magic or something. The whole thing was a dick move against people who just wanted to roll dice to check for traps, declare traps found, avoid traps, find boss, roll dice to kill boss, get loot. You had to REALLY think outside the box to get through it all. The final "boss" of the classic ToH was a skull that could only be hurt by +5 Weapons (really loving powerful weapons), literal gemstones being used as weapons (1pt of damage per 10k value!), Wizards casting spells from the Astral Plane (which was chock full of demons in the area) or Clerics smiting evil (of which they had limited uses per day) It also didn't fight back at all but if you tried to touch it it would insta-gib you and eat your soul. If 8 people got eaten it would teleport the remaining party members loving miles away from the tomb with a curse making every attack made against them ALWAYS hit. Also if you were smart enough to ignore the skull and just go straight for the loot you would encounter a phantasm that wouldn't actually STOP you from taking the stuff but would threaten you enough that if the players preemptively hit it; then it would power up to a level-draining monster and ruin your face.

LAY-ZX posted:This is a cute idea, but it also annoys me, because doesn't this mean they changed the rules of how evolution works? In the official games, if a Pokemon hits a level to evolve but then faints and isn't revived by the end of the battle, doesn't it just not evolve? Removing that limitation for the sake of a single Pokemon seems bizarre. Or am I just misremembering and complaining at this silly dead mushroom for no reason? No pokemon evolve even if they are fainted post battle. IIRC you can eve evolve fainted pokemon with stones if they are able.

Bloody Pom posted:I had a read through of the Pokemon Sage pokedex, and I can't find a single one that would feel out of place in a real Pokemon game. Sure, there is some overlap, but for a project to create a new dex from the ground up there's bound to be some rehashed concepts. I was thinking just that. Nothing feels TOO outlandish and the design concepts that are a bit off the beaten track are still ones you could reasonably see. Sorry DRAGONTRACTOR but you're just a bit too Digimon for my Pokemon game.

Aw man they don't explain Errwinn properly. And Not Bindee every well either. For those not in the know Errwinn is a reference to Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin. A famous Zoologist known for his very thick accent, can do attitude and lax OH&S around animals. Steve got famous internationally, and nationally, for his television series "The Crocodile Hunter" where he and his wife Terri went around Australian (and later the rest of the world) trapping crocs. The show made is cry of "Crikey!" very popular. Steve also owned and operated one of the the most popular Zoo's in Australia "Australia Zoo." Other a famous actions of Steve included: Advertising internationally for awareness of Australian quarantine laws (Quarantine matters. DON'T MUCK WITH IT! *agressive finger pointing*), running a conservation group and very, very infamously dangling his infant daughter over a crocodile pen. (The daughter being Bindi, as referenced in Bindiee the previous entry NOT named after a particularly annoying weed that's seeds are covered in spikes and stick into you but rather, according to Steve, a Native Australian word meaning "young girl".) Steve sadly died in 2006 whilst filming some reef wildlife off the East coast to stick into his young daughters TV show. He swam over a stingray in shallow water, which as a defensive mechanism started lashing out with its spiked tail. It got him through the heart causing him the bleed to death in his boat on the way to the hospital. This is why the Pokemon pictured here has Steve's sun-bleached blonde hair, big happy smile and is a fuckin' stingray piercing its own chest with a halo.

Cause apparently that guy didn't finish explaining all of them I shall but just in text no fancy picture version and frankly full of less trivia facts: Boomer: A boomerang. A carved stick used by native Australians as a weapon for hunting and war. The war ones DON'T come back. Actually very very advanced technologically. (YOU carve wood in such a way it returns after being thrown, CONSISTENTLY) Ranga: Second half to Boomer (Boomer-Ranga). Also Aussie slang for a red-headed person. Kaboomerang: I honestly don't get this one myself beyond the aforementioned boomerang. Theraynsarere: The Rains Are Here. Not 100% on this either but large weather events are both a blessing and curse in Australia. Often times there is drought where a spot of rain is most welcomed by farmers but typically when it happens it ends up being a LOT of rain and floods everything out. On the coast it's typically in the form of a cyclone (monsoon) that destroys fuckin' everything. Fucnoath: Fuckin' Oath. Australian curse/praise. 'Mon is made of cool surfie hand sign. Bludioath: Bloody Oath. See above. Thumbs up 'Mon. Getfctcnt: Get hosed oval office. Australian greeting/way to get punched in the face. 'Mon is made of middle fingers. Harbor: It's the Sydney Harbor Bridge. Westgate: It's the West Gate Bridge. Caramell: Caramello Koala, an individually wraped chocolate treat in the shape of an anthropomorphised koala. Filled with caramel. Fredo: Freddo Frog, an individually wraped chocolate treat in the shape of an anthropomorphised frog. Berty: Berti Beetle, an individually wraped chocolate treat in the shape of an anthropomorphised beetle. Has pieces of honeycomb in it. Crookaburra: The kookaburra is native bird with a large beak and distinctive call, which sounds like laughter. A crook is a criminal. Corrobberbee: It's a bee. A corroboree is a native Australian social gathering. Rob being a strong syllable implies theft connecting it to the previous entry. Corrale: Coral. Duh. Scooba: Scuba diving is a popular way of viewing coral reef's. Reeef: It's literally Reef. Speedo: Underpants like swimming wear. Also called togs or budgie smugglers. See Tony Abbot. Stubbs: Short shorts for men, called Stubbies. Trackees: Trackie's are track pants. Lilbute: It's a small ute, called pick-up trucks by Americans despite being a kind of car and not a truck. Ute's are very big in Australiana where they are seen as a sign of Australia's rural, working class roots. Yoobute: You beaut' is a contraction of You Beauty, a term used when referring to something in a happy, positive manner. Elekidna: It's an Echidna. A native Australian animal that is a spiny anteater of the Monotreme family, that is mammals that lay eggs which are only found in Australia and some surrounding islands (and PNG). Elekidyeah: Same as above but he's giving you the thumbs up bro. Yeah! Vegemite: Vegemite is the super great breakfast of champions. It's a yeast-extract savory spread for bread or toast and often takes foreigners by surprise at its very salty taste as they attempt to lather it on like jam. Looks nothing like a wood louse covered in vegetables but you get the pun. Gridlocked fucked around with this message at 01:41 on May 31, 2017 |

MarquiseMindfang posted:Woolworths still exists in Aus? I'm not sure if they are related honestly, but Aussie Wollies is still going strong despite their bungled attempt at the hardware industry.  Billy: Dual reference to the Billycan, a metal tin used for cooking in the bush, and the start of a Ned Kelly reference. Dedkellee: Ned Kelly, famous Australian Bush Ranger (outlaw) who has worked his way into becoming somewhat of a mythical Robin Hood like figure despite never really giving money to the poor and being an actual criminal who, along with his brothers, murdered 3 police men. Wore homemade amour made from bashed and riveted boiler plates. Shot, captured and hung at the neck till dead for his crimes (murder, robbery and taking hostages in an attempt to avoid police capture) Ranger: See above. Ranger has a an appearance close to Ned Kelly's armour (breast plate and pot-like helmet) Loonaparc: A reference to Luna Park, an amusement park in Sydney. The entrance has a giant face where you enter through the mouth. Spitthedummy: Spitting the dummy is slang for having a vocal cry about something, similar to that of a baby crying. Chuckawobbly: Same as spitting the dummy, having a vocal cry loudly about something. Fongg: A thong, also called flip-flops. Popular, some may say NATIONAL, footwear of Australia. Sandell: A sandal, a kind of shoe. Blunstonn: Bluestone is a local brand of work boot. Typically steel capped for added safety. Chillby: It's an ice Bilbie, a native marsupial that looks like the half way point between a rabbit and a mouse. Billbyte: A bigger Bilbie, not sure of the exact reference though beyond that. Billblizzard: Same as above. Goonfish: It's a Goon Bag. A plastic bag full of cheep cask wine, typically associate with alcoholism and bogans. Caskfish: A box that your goon comes in. Dinglow: A dingo, native wild dog. Dinghost: Same as above. Djinngo: Same as above but a pun on Djinni, a powerful spirit from Arabic mythology. Drawn with the tell-tale tail curl popular among modern renditions of the creature. Combat: It's a wombat. A large ground dwelling marsupial with a big nose, heavy as gently caress body and claws for digging. Very cute. Wombash: See above.
