Pharotep & Cofagrigus would have a symbiotic relationship: Pharotep sleeps within Cofagrigus to hide itself and stay safe until it wakes up. In return, Pharotep stands guard and protects Cofagrigus when it sleeps.
@PenguiNova-mq2lw THIS IS HALLOWEEN, EVERYBODY MAKE A SCENE TRICK OR TREAT ''TILL THE NEIGHBORS DIE OF FRIGHT'' ITS OUR TOWN EVERYBODY SCREAM IN THIS TOWN OF HALLOWEEN!!!
I like the idea of when a Pharotep is old, or horribly sick, or whatever- when they’re ready to die, or pass on, they give themselves up to Cofagregis. Why they do this or what benefit it has for Cofagregis aside from providing food is completely unknown to scientists. But Cofagregis seems to have a lot of genuine respect for Pharotep’s sacrifices.
Could just be ancient kings and queens doing that, as Cofagrigus turn people into mummies if I remember correctly, which could result in Oteps that wander around and I dunno, maybe hide inside tombs and curse people that enter them, inspired by the curse of King Tut's tomb. Pharoteps could serve as singular organizers and leaders of the ghost types within these hidden tombs, regaining their regal status and power in death after evolution. Maybe they alter the tomb to be larger on the inside than the outside by connecting it to the spirit realm, and it could command its underlings to collect things outside for it to enjoy at its leisure, like how Egyptian kings were buried with their treasures to use in the Field of Reeds. Maybe they worship an Osiris-inspired Legendary, I dunno, I'm just spitballing.
Wild idea for Lupup; It itself doesn't evolve, rather, if you have Lupup bite a humanoid non-third stage pokemon (so like Machoke would be a great example here), then you catch said mon & leveled it up at night, that pokemon evolves into Lycanight. Or if you want something way easier to work with, have Lupup get hit by Blood Moon once then revive it during the night.
New Ability for Lupup, Moonlight curse. So only about half of Lupups have this and if it is night time, the Pokémon against it gets poisoned, AND falls asleep. If a Lupup has this ability, use a use a moonstone on the full moon to evolve it into Lycanight. I believe the werewolf Pokémon should be poison type, but maybe it can be a split evo.
Lupup evolves, when holding a moon stone at night, and it must be out of its pokeball, if it's inside, it does not evolve, it may even evolve mid battle
I think it would be very interesting if we could evolve Lupup through double battles, with two evolution possibilities, fighting against/alongside a Lunatone or a fellow Pokemon using Moonblast or Moonlight, as if imitating the effect of the moon on our little one werewolf
i imagine if voltegrim was animated that you'd see the faces of the connector bits pop out on occasion as for pharotep and cofagrigus i'd think they have either a neutral or beneficial relationship, pharotep is a lot more limber and can worm their way into many a space that cofagrigus simply cant without pokeball transportation, while cofagrigus is pretty good security detail to have lurking around. Really i just think that their niche roles in a world setting are different enough that the main conflict i could see the 2 lines having is from any mishaps with otep and yamask (played too rough and now someone 3 miles away knows there's yamask in the region).
The mummy Mon should have the "commander" abilty, but with coffagrigas. It could be called "coffin puppeteer" and their lore could be that "these Pokemon came to be from the mummification process that coffagrigas use. Despite this, they do share a symbiotic relationship, as the coffagrigas provides a shelter while the pharotep provides upkeep."
I'm pretty sure Pharotep and our lovely little coffin would probably be a tag team to hunt intruders of all kinds to their territories. Maybe we get lycanite by getting to level 25, knowing the move bite, and then fighting a human-like pokemon like Mr. Mime? since he's kinda a reverse werewolf (going from wolf to man-wolf)
12:38 Um, if you're referring to Lycanroc midnight form or dusk form, neither of them is part dark type. All three forms are pure rock type like Rockruff.
Ok, so this one popped into my head pretty immediately because I know a strangely large amount of folklore for no good reason XD Lycanight The frightful pokemon Ability - (can't think of a name for it heck) The higher the friendship with the trainer, the higher it's and specials, but lower physicals. Low friendship gives higher physical buffs and lower specials. -The idea being that if it's happy it has a clearer head but it loses some of it's reflexes, and if it's angry at life it's more wild but doesn't think clearly Entry 1, wholesome - These pokemon find it far easier to control themselves with loving trainers. They seem far more able to comprehend their actions when they have someone who cares for them. This makes them excellent companions but has also lead to some trainers taking this a bit to far and perhaps pampering them to much. Elderly couples enjoy their company, presumably because this pokemon enjoys tea time just as much as it enjoys fishing. It would appear that, as long as they are cared for, they're quite content with almost anything. Some people swear they can understand what this pokemon is saying - - -Note: this entry is based off various folklore that claims that if the mother of the afflicted calls their name it can sooth them and help them gain control. As well as some older movies that use a loved one to do the same thing. Using beauty to tame the beast, as it were. The mention of fishing is based off the mainstream interpretation of the Shetland Wulver, a kind and generous werewolf that gives poor families fish Entry 2, concerning - Ravenous, bloodthirsty, and generally hated, this pokemon roams the night in packs, searching for any meat it comes across. It doesn't seem able to tell friend from foe, it's to worried about where it's next meal will come from. They often attack small towns and villages, destroying any food reserves they may have. They seem to always be hungry. Large enough packs can easily become problems in cities. Their howls are haunting, causing even other canine pokemon to shudder. - - -Note: this is more the classic werewolf idea. The last line being an indication of the other dog-like pokemon knowing that, whatever this is, it isn't what it seems
I think it would be cool to see a Dex entry that talks about how pharotep were once people who were laid to rest in cofagrigus and were rose from the dead because of the ghostly energy inside of Cofogrigus. Or even an entry that talks about how cofogrigus love Pharotep but pharotep fear cofogrigus.
Really dig the concept of Lycanight having this shaggy wolf skin! Feels very much in spirit with tales of shapeshifting Berserkers from Norse mythology, warriors who would wear bear/wolf skins and become bloodthirsty warriors. *EDIT AFTER WATCHING* Oh and you absolutely should do more videos based on old school movie monsters! This was a really fun video and I loved your more indirect take on Frankenstein's monster!
I think I like the Pharotep line the most so far! They'd probably have Mummy and Cursed Body as abilities for obvious reasons. As for future monsters, I'd love to see your take on the Invisible Man, since that one may be one closer to mind than others.
hello there, your video came across my youtube recommended and boy am I glad it did! your ideas for the Universal monsters are SO good!! I don't know which one is my favorite. I have a few little pieces of info about some of the monsters I think you might like! I'm kind of with everybody on the symbiotic/friendly relationship between Pharotep and Cofagrigus (one of my all time favorites btw). (Egyptian) Mummies are put in a sarcophagus, and both are associated with death. I think Yamask (prevo to Cofagrigus) might not like Otep/Pharotep because Yamasks actively avoid Cofagrigus. I loved the idea of Lupup/Lycanight wearing the "skin" or "pelt" of something. there's a version of becoming a werewolf where if you put on the pelt of a wolf (usually provided by the devil or a dead werewolf) you will become one yourself! I don't know if you knew this or if it was a coincidence but I thought that was super cool. While I was expecting a Frankenstein's monster as a pokemon type thing, I still really liked what you did instead. The idea of bringing Dr. Frankenstein's lab to life (literally) is actually really refreshing. The jagged lines you put on Voltegrim's chest also reminded me of the iconic "mad scientist" lab coat!
0:48 Cue the making of invisible man Pokémon, only it’s invisible so you narrate over a completely blank speed drawing of nothing, followed by the stats of empty space.
for Lupup Evolution line the Bloodied State Mechanic; certain moves induce it (things like scratch, you get the drift) and you have to Bloody (think old school Poison but stronger) and you have to give the Effect to 5 Pokemon and make it howl at the moon while holding a Moonstone. (the reply relies on Game Designer Willingness to make something a little more locked than Wurmple's Cascoon-Silcoon situation).
or you could make a split evolution (not Lycanight) for Lupup that focuses on the Fear Status Mechanic. it works by making Sound Based Moves and things like Bite inflict this special status (like the Bloodied State, or Burn, Poisoned... etc) on it's own it just lowers all stats by one for one-turn but if the opponent is unlucky they start howling they enter a state similar to Sleep or Freeze. same thing as the Bloodied State Mechanic otherwise.
22:55 I figured you'd included it because it looks like a lightning bolt, which is famously part of what animated ol' Frank's creation. 24:00 You really did a good job on the scratch marks and weathering. I didn't really notice them until you pointed them out, but I guess that's proof that they're doing their job - they blend in and just feel like part of the design instead of being obtrusive. 25:00 Real lightning can actually be purple, just not necessarily that bright and saturated.
Loved this! (Fun fact, I am watching this video with my Draculus and Frankentron transformers by my side) I feel like the most obvious ability for Pharotep would be Mummy HOWEVER another way to symbolize the curse so often associated with mummies and pyramids I feel like an ability that, once Pharotep is defeated, affects the opposing pokemon with a random condition would be much funny and much more unpredictable. Hope this series contiues, I would be really curious to see if we'll get a bride for Voltegrim: would it be just a case of sexual dimorphism? Would it be a Nidoking/Nidoqueen situation? Would it be a Grimmsnarl/Hatterene situation? So many possibilities!
Idk if this will be seen, but this gave me the idea of classic Slasher movie villains as pokemon. You know, Jason Vorhees, Freddy Krueger, Micheal Myers, Chucky, the whole gang. I would draw them myself, but I don’t think I’m really good at designing pokemon, or monsters in general. But anyways, this video was great and I love the designs.
These are fantastic! They really capture the essence of the Universal movie monsters. As soon as you started on the Wolfman ones all I could picture is Abbott and Castello as a dual trainers/gym leaders with these pokemon as their team!
For pharotep I think it be fun to be sort of like a toxapex: HP-40 Atk-53 Def-142 Spa-63 Spdf-152 Spd-45 Abilities: mummy, sand rush (HA: sand veil) Sig move- Pharaohs Curse: pharotep starts up an ominous sandstorm. All other pokemon on the field become poisoned. The idea is it’s not actually gonna do much damage but can take hits and keep coming. It can set up status and g-drain. Like the mummy’s curses it might not do a lot up front but will have a lingering effect in the battle like curse, infestation status. For Voltegrim let’s switch Attack and Spdf and Spak and Def. It has a signature ability called enraged which basically is the weakness policy as an ability. And maybe levitate as an ability. No it pulls more from the story how Frankensteins monster wasn’t necessarily bad but was enraged by things like fire. Have it be a gentle giant but when you provoke it with a super effective move it can fight back. You can give it a weakness policy to double the boost you get, or assault vest/ focus sash to guarantee you get the boost
voltegrim's shiny reminds me of doctor vicktor from ben 10, especially the purple lightning being associated with the whole ghostfreak arc in general i really love voltegrim's design, i'm a huge fan of frankenmonsters and it's such a unique take on the concept
I would give Voltegrim Levitate for its ability, the first reason is because it’s floating in the air, so it will make sense. The second reason is for a competitive reason and it does kind of go with the first reason, but levitate prevent you from being hit by ground type moves, so it gets rid of major weakness, considering that electric types and steel types are weak to ground types
Otep and Pharotep - Sand veil, Cursed Body / Mummy Lupup - Intimidate, Ball Fetch / Moxie Lycanight - Intimidate, Strong Jaw/ Moxie Boltewatt - Motor drive, Clear Body / Volt absorb Motor drive, Iron Fist / Volt absorb
Ever heard of a Grisgol? In tabletop, it's a golem made out of discarded/forgotten magical items, with a lich phylactery as a powersource. Basically it's a Garbador made out of loot and with a ghost typing.
I definitely feel like Pharotep and Cofagrigus would be enemies. My idea is that Pharotep is constantly looking for tombs and coffins to rest away in, and often hunts down Cofagrigus’ to release the spirit and take their coffin. Definitely like a Zangoose and Seviper rivalry. They HATE each other
For Lupup's evo method maybe it has to use a biting move at night on another type of pokemon I really want to see an Igor pokemon in the style of Indeedee, a servant pokemon at the spooky region pokemon center that helps patch up your injured mons. Also I NEED to see the invisible man, a mon with an invisible body that makes itself 'clothes' so it can be seen but can shed them to hide completely invisibly like a Kecleon sounds like a really cool design, you get to try and form a body shape around the actual body.
Great series. :D Honestly, these guys would so work for a Halloween themed gym leader. XD I can totally see them opening using these guys to hand out candy or scares now. XD
My idea for Lupup evolution into Lycanight is that there conditions must be met. 1) Holds item know as a Wild Pelt. 2) Must be night. 3) Level up to level 30 or higher.
I love Pharotep! I would assume it would hate cofagrigus. Lol its like how Cofagrigus feels more solid while Pharotep feels more liquid so they would make the triangle with Gengar being like a gas based ghost. Lycanight has this Mr.Hyde feel to it and i love it! I would give it maybe a reverse lycanthropy evolution where if it is hit by a bite move, (bite, crunch, hyper fag, etc) then it would evolved at the end of battle.
In my honest opinion, I feel like Lupup could evolve by having the evolution method be related to its "Pelt" (Second layer of fur?) Perhaps have an evolutionary held-item that only works at night: the transformation isn't related to the pokémon, its the item. Perhaps a strange cursed rune that ACTIVATES under the moonlight, allowing it to be used on Lupup (and other moon related Pokémon like Clefairy?)
Very cool concept designs for our classic horror monsters,for pharotep it's move could be called sand tomb, for lycanight it can have the move called crescent claw,and for voltegrim it can have the move volt up which increases electric moves (also I would definitely want to add lycanight to my team)
I once had an idea of a Pokemon region and my idea for Box Art Legendaries was actually based on classic Universal Monsters instead of the usual mythical figure oe deep folklore like many Legendaries tend to be. The two version Legendary Pokemon were based on Frankenstein and Dracula respectively, while the third Legendary Pokemon was basically the Mummy or powerful pharaoh Pokemon in a DLC story.
Pharotep and cofagregis could have a sick legendary you can only obtain when both are in your party based on either anubis or osiris gods of the underworld
The thing I'm seeing here is the main crew from Hotel Transylvania. It would just be funny if for part 2 we do a vampire, an Invisible Man, and a vampire hunter (cause Van Helsing was in the last two movies)
To evolve lupup into lycanight . Moon stone under a full moon similar to ursaluna minis the moon stone. Or use 20 moon related moves like moonlight and moonblast then level up under the full moon. Or use 20 bite moves.
Well the obvious ability to give otep and its evolution would be mummy. Earth eater for boltewatt since Frankenstein’s parts where derived from the ground
Firstly, Otep is baby and must be protected at all costs 💜 and I can lowkey see a convergent form where it is a plant just of the shiny 🌸 Secondly, this is a stretch and might fall out of the universal monsters umbrella, but maybe an Eevee themed doll that evolves into the different doll themed characters (Chucky, M3gan, Tiffany, Annabelle, Billy the Puppet, Glen/Glenda/GiGi, Clown doll from Poltergeist, just to name a few )😅 Thirdly, this is more of a pokemon trainer suggestion, but I would like to nominate Elvira: Mistress of the Dark... especially since she just recently got added to the Killer Clowns From Outer Space game 💫 P.S. Your designs are always fun to see 💜
I like the idea of these being pokemon that dont exist in the pokemon world, but are creations of hollywood for the pokemon version of the monster movies
I would have all these on my team if i could and if i were a ghost gym leader or elite four i would use Pharotep as my ace or a Voltegrim simply because i can and i see my pokemon character being a spooky game maker or scientist maybe they helped make the gym trial before it opened up, these are really cool designs look forward to mkre
These are some of the best fake moms I have ever seen I love these so much and want them to be real. Only tiny criticism I have is that the electricity that ‘attaches’ the hands to the body of Boltewatt should be there on the feet as well. Other than this these are simply amazing and I want them.
Great video! The typings you picked are exactly what I expected and I don’t think you could have picked a more suitable typing for the Frankenstein Pokémon other than electric/steel. In fact it made me realize ghost wouldn’t make sense at all for Frankenstein’s monster as the whole point is that he is reanimated and not dead, unlike the mummy which is a form of the undead. Electric and steel is a perfect combo Hmm as for the others I’d give the invisible man ghost/normal? I’d give the Gilliman pre evolution water/grass and evolved form is water/dragon to represent how primal it is. In case you ever decided to do a creature of the black lagoon as a Pokémon I think dragon suits it very well as it was around during the time of the Devonian I think As for Dracula I think Dark/Psychic would be most suitable for obvious reasons lol Edit: also wanted to add I agree with you in the beginning of your video PLEASE GIVE US AN EGYPTIAN BASED REGION POKÉMON COMPANY. I want it more than any other type of region at this point
I really like the scratched metal texture. Tho I do think you need to be careful with the placement, directions, and amount of the lines because I think it could easily be misread as short fur texture if not handled properly
why is the werewolf pokemon giving me robot cat but wolf version from cats & dogs: revenge of kitty galore vibes? for those who have seen or remember the movie, if you know you know
Wolfman - you should have totally borrowed from Digimon's Gabumon with the more humanoid Poke with the cloak / pelt then going bestial wolf or werewolf type
I try to give a french name for every fakemon here so Amômetep (for otep)from Amenhotep and Môme (familiar term to say kid) Apoutyou (Pharotep) from Apep a snake god from Egyptian mythology and outyou name given to the embalmers priest in ancien egypt. For this one I want to give an unfrench-like name for emphasize the “coming from afar” aspect Garouloup (Lupup) from Loup-garou(werewolf) upside down to form the sentence "gare aux loups" (beware of wolves) Bestianthrope (Lycanight) from bestiale (bestial) and Lycanthrope (Lycanthrope) Cobalab (Boltewatt) from Cobaye (a guinea pig) and laboratoire (laboratory) Parakenstein (Voltegrim) from Paratonnerre (Lightning rod) and frankenstein All done
I feel like if you do the visible man pokemon would be more like a ghost pokemon possessing items that looks like it's a person/pokemon and it can be ghost/psychic type.
I feel like Pharotep could very easily just be a special attacking Sandstorm setter with Sand Force but I wanted to come up with a signature ability for him. No clue if it's busted or not, I'm new to the Pokemon combat Pharotep's Curse: After Pharotep hits a Pokemon with a contact move, any Ghost-type damage that Pokemon takes will hit twice
Pharotep & Cofagrigus would have a symbiotic relationship:
Pharotep sleeps within Cofagrigus to hide itself and stay safe until it wakes up.
In return, Pharotep stands guard and protects Cofagrigus when it sleeps.
@@mmangalisomasinga432 And what about Runerigus?
@@dr.crazystein9536 Not Egyptian-themed
@@mmangalisomasinga432 Then Pharotep and Runerigus are consider to be war enemies until Runerigus finds a better symbiotic relationship
It just gets the Dondozo ability where if both are on the field, Cofagrigus absorbs Pharotep!
That was my exact same thought!
Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange? Come with us and you'll will see in this, town of Halloween
THIS IS HALLOWEEN! THIS IS HALLOWEEN! PUMPKINS SCREAM IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT!

@@Alyrael I love all of these ideas!
Putting the 'Monster' back in 'Pocket Monsters'.
True
Ooo! Part two featuring Invisible man, Jekyl and Hyde, and Phantom of the Opera?!
Yooooo what if the jeykll and hyde was a split evolution or mechanic like at night it could transform from the jekyl to hyde
I would prefer Dracula over phantom of the opera personally but yes please
I feel like Voltegrim's shiny references how a lot of Frankenstein's Monsters are 'green' and 'rotten' looking, if I was to guess the inspiration.
Midnight Lycanroc is not a Dark-type. Common misconception
These are fantastic! With a Dracula, Gill Man, and Invisible Man you'll have a whole team! Maybe have a Vincent Price or Christopher Lee type trainer
Wild idea for Lupup; It itself doesn't evolve, rather, if you have Lupup bite a humanoid non-third stage pokemon (so like Machoke would be a great example here), then you catch said mon & leveled it up at night, that pokemon evolves into Lycanight. Or if you want something way easier to work with, have Lupup get hit by Blood Moon once then revive it during the night.
I do dig that idea!
I was gonna suggest it has to get hit by moonblast without dying, but that would probably be hard for an unevolved dark type
That's a unique and amazing idea!

Electric steel type is very fitting for the Pokemon because Frankenstein has been known to fear fire and because of the typing it’s weak to fire
i imagine if voltegrim was animated that you'd see the faces of the connector bits pop out on occasion
as for pharotep and cofagrigus i'd think they have either a neutral or beneficial relationship, pharotep is a lot more limber and can worm their way into many a space that cofagrigus simply cant without pokeball transportation, while cofagrigus is pretty good security detail to have lurking around. Really i just think that their niche roles in a world setting are different enough that the main conflict i could see the 2 lines having is from any mishaps with otep and yamask (played too rough and now someone 3 miles away knows there's yamask in the region).

I think the Frankenstein one looks so official, and the design itself is pretty interesting, you deserve more recognition
Love this. Who’s next Gillman, Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde? Phantom of the opera? The invisible man? Dracula? So much potential
12:38 Um, if you're referring to Lycanroc midnight form or dusk form, neither of them is part dark type. All three forms are pure rock type like Rockruff.
The Otep line just having Mummy as an ability
Ok, so this one popped into my head pretty immediately because I know a strangely large amount of folklore for no good reason XD

Very spookily cool.
I had an idea of Universal being Ultra beasts instead of Pokémon.

*EDIT AFTER WATCHING* Oh and you absolutely should do more videos based on old school movie monsters! This was a really fun video and I loved your more indirect take on Frankenstein's monster!
So cool to have Imhotep essentially evolve into Kharis (who is essentially the iconic mummy). Very well done 👍🏽
One month ago, your first FNAF as Pokemon video, you had 200k. Today, you have almost a million. I give you my utmost respect my dear friend!
I appreciate that :) thank you for the support
I miscounted, but still a lot more than 200k
I think I like the Pharotep line the most so far!
They'd probably have Mummy and Cursed Body as abilities for obvious reasons.
As for future monsters, I'd love to see your take on the Invisible Man, since that one may be one closer to mind than others.
Bro you can not hit me with the Lilo and Stitch scene where Stitch throws Gantu out the freaking ship and then go back to the video😂
Frankenstein was the doctor. The monster literally is called Frankenstein’s Monster. But the real monster was Doctor Frankenstein

The new artstyle for you character is superb!
for Lupup Evolution line
the Bloodied State Mechanic; certain moves induce it (things like scratch, you get the drift) and you have to Bloody (think old school Poison but stronger) and you have to give the Effect to 5 Pokemon and make it howl at the moon while holding a Moonstone. (the reply relies on Game Designer Willingness to make something a little more locked than Wurmple's Cascoon-Silcoon situation).
or you could make a split evolution (not Lycanight) for Lupup that focuses on the Fear Status Mechanic. it works by making Sound Based Moves and things like Bite inflict this special status (like the Bloodied State, or Burn, Poisoned... etc) on it's own it just lowers all stats by one for one-turn but if the opponent is unlucky they start howling they enter a state similar to Sleep or Freeze. same thing as the Bloodied State Mechanic otherwise.
You COULD say that Type: Null is already a Frankenstein's monster Pokemon.
By technical terms, Mewtwo and the Galar Fossils can be considered Frankenstein Monsters in Pokemon.
Any video that starts with a Wilhelm scream is automatically a cut above.

24:00 You really did a good job on the scratch marks and weathering. I didn't really notice them until you pointed them out, but I guess that's proof that they're doing their job - they blend in and just feel like part of the design instead of being obtrusive.
25:00 Real lightning can actually be purple, just not necessarily that bright and saturated.
Pharotep and cofagrigus official Pokémon vore
Loved this! (Fun fact, I am watching this video with my Draculus and Frankentron transformers by my side)
I feel like the most obvious ability for Pharotep would be Mummy HOWEVER another way to symbolize the curse so often associated with mummies and pyramids I feel like an ability that, once Pharotep is defeated, affects the opposing pokemon with a random condition would be much funny and much more unpredictable.
Hope this series contiues, I would be really curious to see if we'll get a bride for Voltegrim: would it be just a case of sexual dimorphism? Would it be a Nidoking/Nidoqueen situation? Would it be a Grimmsnarl/Hatterene situation? So many possibilities!
Idk if this will be seen, but this gave me the idea of classic Slasher movie villains as pokemon. You know, Jason Vorhees, Freddy Krueger, Micheal Myers, Chucky, the whole gang. I would draw them myself, but I don’t think I’m really good at designing pokemon, or monsters in general. But anyways, this video was great and I love the designs.
I beg of you please keep going with these, I would love to see the Gillman and Dr. Griffin as pokemon
1000 points for referring to him by his actual name and not 'The invisible man'
These are fantastic! They really capture the essence of the Universal movie monsters. As soon as you started on the Wolfman ones all I could picture is Abbott and Castello as a dual trainers/gym leaders with these pokemon as their team!
You can only get lycanight by levelling up lupup with full moon form lunatone in your party
For pharotep I think it be fun to be sort of like a toxapex:
HP-40
Atk-53
Def-142
Spa-63
Spdf-152
Spd-45
Abilities: mummy, sand rush (HA: sand veil)
Sig move- Pharaohs Curse: pharotep starts up an ominous sandstorm. All other pokemon on the field become poisoned.
The idea is it’s not actually gonna do much damage but can take hits and keep coming. It can set up status and g-drain. Like the mummy’s curses it might not do a lot up front but will have a lingering effect in the battle like curse, infestation status.
For Voltegrim let’s switch Attack and Spdf and Spak and Def. It has a signature ability called enraged which basically is the weakness policy as an ability. And maybe levitate as an ability. No it pulls more from the story how Frankensteins monster wasn’t necessarily bad but was enraged by things like fire. Have it be a gentle giant but when you provoke it with a super effective move it can fight back. You can give it a weakness policy to double the boost you get, or assault vest/ focus sash to guarantee you get the boost
voltegrim's shiny reminds me of doctor vicktor from ben 10, especially the purple lightning being associated with the whole ghostfreak arc
in general i really love voltegrim's design, i'm a huge fan of frankenmonsters and it's such a unique take on the concept
I would give Voltegrim Levitate for its ability, the first reason is because it’s floating in the air, so it will make sense. The second reason is for a competitive reason and it does kind of go with the first reason, but levitate prevent you from being hit by ground type moves, so it gets rid of major weakness, considering that electric types and steel types are weak to ground types
Vampire, swamp monster, titular ghost, demon, lots of options.
Like the mummys and the first stage of the werewolf is really cute ^^
Otep and Pharotep - Sand veil, Cursed Body / Mummy
Lupup - Intimidate, Ball Fetch / Moxie
Lycanight - Intimidate, Strong Jaw/ Moxie
Boltewatt - Motor drive, Clear Body / Volt absorb
Motor drive, Iron Fist / Volt absorb
Those are definitely like the starters not gonna lie
The mummy should have Mummy as its ability, or Wandering Spirit (:
Ever heard of a Grisgol? In tabletop, it's a golem made out of discarded/forgotten magical items, with a lich phylactery as a powersource. Basically it's a Garbador made out of loot and with a ghost typing.
I definitely feel like Pharotep and Cofagrigus would be enemies. My idea is that Pharotep is constantly looking for tombs and coffins to rest away in, and often hunts down Cofagrigus’ to release the spirit and take their coffin. Definitely like a Zangoose and Seviper rivalry. They HATE each other
For Lupup's evo method maybe it has to use a biting move at night on another type of pokemon
I really want to see an Igor pokemon in the style of Indeedee, a servant pokemon at the spooky region pokemon center that helps patch up your injured mons. Also I NEED to see the invisible man, a mon with an invisible body that makes itself 'clothes' so it can be seen but can shed them to hide completely invisibly like a Kecleon sounds like a really cool design, you get to try and form a body shape around the actual body.
Great series. :D Honestly, these guys would so work for a Halloween themed gym leader. XD I can totally see them opening using these guys to hand out candy or scares now. XD
Lupup evolves at level 30 and only on the blood moon!
Or at least a full one
My idea for Lupup evolution into Lycanight is that there conditions must be met.
1) Holds item know as a Wild Pelt.
2) Must be night.
3) Level up to level 30 or higher.
I love Pharotep! I would assume it would hate cofagrigus. Lol its like how Cofagrigus feels more solid while Pharotep feels more liquid so they would make the triangle with Gengar being like a gas based ghost.
Lycanight has this Mr.Hyde feel to it and i love it! I would give it maybe a reverse lycanthropy evolution where if it is hit by a bite move, (bite, crunch, hyper fag, etc) then it would evolved at the end of battle.
In my honest opinion, I feel like Lupup could evolve by having the evolution method be related to its "Pelt" (Second layer of fur?)
Perhaps have an evolutionary held-item that only works at night: the transformation isn't related to the pokémon, its the item.
Perhaps a strange cursed rune that ACTIVATES under the moonlight, allowing it to be used on Lupup (and other moon related Pokémon like Clefairy?)
Very cool concept designs for our classic horror monsters,for pharotep it's move could be called sand tomb, for lycanight it can have the move called crescent claw,and for voltegrim it can have the move volt up which increases electric moves (also I would definitely want to add lycanight to my team)
I once had an idea of a Pokemon region and my idea for Box Art Legendaries was actually based on classic Universal Monsters instead of the usual mythical figure oe deep folklore like many Legendaries tend to be. The two version Legendary Pokemon were based on Frankenstein and Dracula respectively, while the third Legendary Pokemon was basically the Mummy or powerful pharaoh Pokemon in a DLC story.
Frankstein's monster evolution should have an ability called Revive, basically if in a double match it can wake a pokemon that fainted.
I'm in my 20s the universal monsters is what got me into horror as a kid I grew up with them this is amazing
Pharotep and cofagregis could have a sick legendary you can only obtain when both are in your party based on either anubis or osiris gods of the underworld
The thing I'm seeing here is the main crew from Hotel Transylvania. It would just be funny if for part 2 we do a vampire, an Invisible Man, and a vampire hunter (cause Van Helsing was in the last two movies)
Perfect for Halloween month
To evolve lupup into lycanight .
Moon stone under a full moon similar to ursaluna minis the moon stone.
Or use 20 moon related moves like moonlight and moonblast then level up under the full moon.
Or use 20 bite moves.
That Intro! Gave me goosebumps and nostalgic flashbacks. You earned a sub because of it.
Welcome aboard!
Well the obvious ability to give otep and its evolution would be mummy.
Earth eater for boltewatt since Frankenstein’s parts where derived from the ground
Firstly, Otep is baby and must be protected at all costs 💜 and I can lowkey see a convergent form where it is a plant just of the shiny 🌸
Secondly, this is a stretch and might fall out of the universal monsters umbrella, but maybe an Eevee themed doll that evolves into the different doll themed characters (Chucky, M3gan, Tiffany, Annabelle, Billy the Puppet, Glen/Glenda/GiGi, Clown doll from Poltergeist, just to name a few )😅
Thirdly, this is more of a pokemon trainer suggestion, but I would like to nominate Elvira: Mistress of the Dark... especially since she just recently got added to the Killer Clowns From Outer Space game 💫
P.S. Your designs are always fun to see 💜
Lupup evo criteria: level up with a lunatone in your party
I feel like Voltegrim's walking animation would be him using is arms to walk around
I imagine the Otep line to have both Hydration and regenerator as it's abilities.
Grew up watching the original Universal Monsters from 20s to 60s love this vid!
Lupup could evolve during a full moon at level 30 or higher with zero friendship and have it alone in the party
Adding another idea fur coat/intimidate for wolf man, lightning rod/analytic for frank and unaware/cursed body for mummy
For evolving Lycanight maybe having it defeat a certain number of Lunatone?
I like the idea of these being pokemon that dont exist in the pokemon world, but are creations of hollywood for the pokemon version of the monster movies
@@zodiakgames fits with the old Hollywood theme of my Kostawes region
Wow beautiful picture 🖼️🖼️
I would have all these on my team if i could and if i were a ghost gym leader or elite four i would use Pharotep as my ace or a Voltegrim simply because i can and i see my pokemon character being a spooky game maker or scientist maybe they helped make the gym trial before it opened up, these are really cool designs look forward to mkre
if Batman was a pokemon trainer Lycanight would definitely be on his team.

I ADORE this, & would LOVE to see more. I’d also love to see your take on D&D or BG3 inspired mons. Keep it up !
These are some of the best fake moms I have ever seen I love these so much and want them to be real. Only tiny criticism I have is that the electricity that ‘attaches’ the hands to the body of Boltewatt should be there on the feet as well. Other than this these are simply amazing and I want them.
Great video! The typings you picked are exactly what I expected and I don’t think you could have picked a more suitable typing for the Frankenstein Pokémon other than electric/steel. In fact it made me realize ghost wouldn’t make sense at all for Frankenstein’s monster as the whole point is that he is reanimated and not dead, unlike the mummy which is a form of the undead. Electric and steel is a perfect combo
Hmm as for the others I’d give the invisible man ghost/normal?
I’d give the Gilliman pre evolution water/grass and evolved form is water/dragon to represent how primal it is. In case you ever decided to do a creature of the black lagoon as a Pokémon I think dragon suits it very well as it was around during the time of the Devonian I think
As for Dracula I think Dark/Psychic would be most suitable for obvious reasons lol
Edit: also wanted to add I agree with you in the beginning of your video PLEASE GIVE US AN EGYPTIAN BASED REGION POKÉMON COMPANY. I want it more than any other type of region at this point
Lupup could evolve after being in a battle where someone uses Moonlight. Probably only takes effect after a certain level.
I really like the scratched metal texture. Tho I do think you need to be careful with the placement, directions, and amount of the lines because I think it could easily be misread as short fur texture if not handled properly
Wanna see a Zombie and Skeleton evolution line, maybe even a ghost.
why is the werewolf pokemon giving me robot cat but wolf version from cats & dogs: revenge of kitty galore vibes? for those who have seen or remember the movie, if you know you know
You should of made Otep have a split evolution where it would either evolve into a mummy or evolve into the invisible man since both wear bandages
Requirement for evolution for otep Require cofagrigus to evolve into pharotep like mantyke requires remoraid
Wolfman - you should have totally borrowed from Digimon's Gabumon with the more humanoid Poke with the cloak / pelt then going bestial wolf or werewolf type
Voltegrim should have new ability Tesla where gains the levitate ability when Electric Terrain is in affect
ohhh,getting ready for the spooky vibes ^_^
I really enjoy watching your videos and I love your art style. Can you PLEASE do more of these monster pokemon? I loved this video
HALLOWEEN! YIPPEE!
Also HE'S REAL! YIPPEE!
I try to give a french name for every fakemon here so
Amômetep (for otep)from Amenhotep and Môme (familiar term to say kid)
Apoutyou (Pharotep) from Apep a snake god from Egyptian mythology and outyou name given to the embalmers priest in ancien egypt.
For this one I want to give an unfrench-like name for emphasize the “coming from afar” aspect
Garouloup (Lupup) from Loup-garou(werewolf) upside down to form the sentence "gare aux loups" (beware of wolves)
Bestianthrope (Lycanight) from bestiale (bestial) and Lycanthrope (Lycanthrope)
Cobalab (Boltewatt) from Cobaye (a guinea pig) and laboratoire (laboratory)
Parakenstein (Voltegrim) from Paratonnerre (Lightning rod) and frankenstein
All done
I feel like if you do the visible man pokemon would be more like a ghost pokemon possessing items that looks like it's a person/pokemon and it can be ghost/psychic type.
I feel like Pharotep could very easily just be a special attacking Sandstorm setter with Sand Force but I wanted to come up with a signature ability for him. No clue if it's busted or not, I'm new to the Pokemon combat
Pharotep's Curse: After Pharotep hits a Pokemon with a contact move, any Ghost-type damage that Pokemon takes will hit twice
Listen, it would be a crime to NOT give the Frankenstein Pokemon Lightning Rod
Slenderman? Idk
