Its funny how nekokira is so close to tinkaton. immense prediction skills right there. Pink creature, oversized metal over the shoulder and fairy/steel typing.
@@GyaradosageDon't forget The Power of Loss, is like Kingambit's Supreme Overlord ability of getting stronger based on the state of Pokemon in your party.
It's hilarious how each of the guys' designs interpret "pretty" as pink, while the lone woman went with light blue. Love all the designs, just funny seeing the perspectives.
I think it's more because of the grace and elegance of her pokemon, blue used to be the "girl color" as pink is today because it's serene, and pink was a more masculine color because it's closer to red and hotter colors in general, it shows passion and strength and you can notice that in their designs as well which is really cool too
My english isn't that great, but if I remember it right "pretty" is similar to "beautiful" mostly used for females or babies. So the guys went for the female pink and the woman went for the typical baby boy light blue.
I think it is because attributed to Fairy Type. Let’s be real, majority of Fairy types are basically elegant and pretty, and because most of them have a pink color theme, that’s prbly whythey chose that color.
@@AmeneyuikiKind of a weird thing to say since the original games didn't have shinies, though. You're just saying that because it's become a permanent feature that's expected.
That Neko line could totally be a starter. It reminded me of Delphox. In fact they could be related somehow since Delphox is more of a spell caster and Nekokira is more of a warrior type.
@@Aeternus75 well es but actually no similar concept to them one is a warrior and the other is a spell caster or princess with Gardevoir with that it seems more like the Gen six starter trio theme of default classes a mage a fighter and a rouge the Neko line could be a what if the Delphox line was the fighter instead of chestnaught
But that would mean they have to put EFFORT into making the Pokemon games, and as we know putting your heart and soul into making Pokemon is wrong and hard to do.
Comettita and Sairanova… I NEED THOSE. The design, the stats, the typing, abilities, everything. If I saw these in game they’d have to go on the team immediately, those would be instant faves for me
If they ever do this again…they need to make their Pokémon’s ANTAGONIST!! Also have it be cunning and wicked Edit:Holy crap guys! I wasn’t expecting this many of you guys to agree with me! Thanks
That would be a great 'part 2', and maybe another prompt could be a 'supporter' pokemon like a sidekick/healer/follower kind of deal using the protagonist/antagonist
Wardursa is SUCH A BEAUTIFUL EVOLUTION IN JACKS DESIGNS!!! Three base colors, a good harmony between them, quite clean but still complex... I'm loving it! Such a treat. Thank you, Roooon! ♥
I love how they all went "what if pokemon, but girlboss?" Also they look like the four queens of four different nations, that will unite against the big bad to save the world, setting aside the differences of their lands and helping each other

@@erliqwen2306 Kinda I get why they don't, but like it could be cool there's actually a decent chunk of Important Digimon that were designed by fans for a Competition (I know it's no where near a decent comparison they're very different Franchises, but still)
I get competitive viability wasn't considered, but holy crap Nekokira is so freaking busted that it would make zacian look like a fair and balanced Pokemon.
@@thebookless3381 on top of having a really good attack and speed stats on top of having 3 abilities in one on top of always having at least 1 attack boost but usually more
and it would be more readily available in contrast to a box art legendary where you get only 1 in 1 game and it might get egg moves too for even more strength
@@haydenford9587 AND it has the best defensive typing in the game AND it’ll probably get good coverage moves since it uses a sword (so all blade/sword moves are on the table) AND it’s pretty much guaranteed to get access to swords dance. Wayyy too op even for someone that would know nothing about competitive. But it is soul just for fun so I guess it’s fine idk
This was really fun and really great. I've seen comments calling for a villain for these Pokemon, but I think it'd be cool to do like a rival to these Pokemon; something mischievous but also misunderstood. Another really cool idea would be to come up with evolutions or pre-evolutions for already existing Pokemon. I think it'd be a fun and interesting way to test your creativity. Thanks for the vid.
When I think of "protector" the first thing that comes to mind is 'defence" so I was really surprised when I saw the first Pokemon with its lowest stat being DEF. But the 3rd and 4th Pokemons really fit well with what I had in mind. Good job everyone, they're all really great.
I think I know why Nekokira doesn't read as a Pokemon: a combination of its eyes, weapon, and humanoid figure make it look like a very early, high-level Digimon. Like somehow the logical transition point between Gatomon and Magnadramon.
Oh. My. God. I am in LOVE with Neko's evolution line and Cometita. I want them to be real so badly 😭 I also really want a plush of Cometita. It's just so cuuuute!! I'm so mad that they aren't real and probably never will be. Game Freak really needs to hire you guys
It's not fun to work for a company who will take complete ownership of your art. I very much doubt they'd like it. Besides that, Nintendo and Gamefreak likely have extremely big privacy standards.
@@xxhowisuxx Oh I didn't think about that. That would suck but it'd still be cool if they could design Pokémon for the official games because these designs are too good
If Moxio2D's fakemon was real, it would be my all time favorite pokemon. I love Lucario and cute pink pokemon with power are my favorite. Beautiful design
Neko - Nekokira was amazing! I absolutely loved it. I can imagine Moxie in a nuzlocke with Nekokira and did basically what happened with Greg and basically have Nekokira as Greg 2.0
I like how Vergo interpreted protagonist, as a pokemon the protagonist would use. If the others were protagonists I'd mostly see it in some PMD or otherwise type setting, where the pokemon themselves are the main characters, whereas I think Sairanova would work great as a partner pokemon in a pokemon manga/anime with a female MC.
In terms of concept, I really liked that of the Nekokira line. In terms of design, the Sairanova hit a homerun. I really enjoyed this content. I'm hoping to see more from these artists. Y'all did an incredible job!
I really like Nekuni. the concept of their power being too much to handle is cool. Nekokira is nice too (who doesn't love giant swords) but I wish there was something on their arms and legs. I think them being so bare makes them seem too human-like.
A thoroughly delightful and engaging video from beginning to conclusion. This art collaboration was ambitious, and it certainly delivered above and beyond! The design characteristics of your designs, their themes and inspiration demonstrate great sensitivity to the appointed criteria. Yet your various perspectives, experiences and personalities produced intelligently designed Pokémon. In a way, the different end results enable all four Pokémon to contribute to each other beautifully. Moreover, the individual design approaches and creation processes, coupled with the hilarious banter, the complementary and insightful comments to the finished products make this video greatly insightful. It is always fascinating to see how one choice over another, prior to and during the creation process, contribute enormously to a work of art. All in all, a fantastic collaboration from you four! You should all definitely do another one in the future! Keep up with your awesome art!
Loved all the designs. I was worried with the bear like “not another bipedal fighting type bear Pokémon” but it actually looks amazing !! If it was real it’d be my fav. He took the hardest animal to make feminine and protagonist and did it well.
I like how the final forms could form a superhero team lol. Like imagine a Pokemon Dungeon anime, where it's a world of only Pokemon, and they're the superhero team that saves Pokemon all over. Overall, lovely designs!
9:44 I was thinking with the Nekokira evolution in a Nuzlocke it could still work, kinda brutal method tho... You could use Nekuni for a while and then by the time she's at lvl 32 or higher you should have some early lower level pokemon just sitting in your pc, bring 5 onto your team with the intention on them dying, which will then evolve Nukuni. Real dark method, but effective. Just think of it as their transferring all their power to Nekokira, kinda like a "Spirit Bomb" evolution lol
I'm sorry little one... **They're** EDIT: Gentlemen, it is with great sadness that I must inform you that... No, it was not they're. He was correct, it was their.
@@maddiesmenagerie8853 Yea, it would be a costly trade, but in every Nuzlocke I have ever run there by the time I am in the mid 30's I usually have 5-10 pokemon that I would only use if things go deep south. Usually because of bad natures.
Sedimini reminds me of Jaiden's Platinum nuzlocke where she was swinging her Turtwig like a bludgeon. I loved all of the designs today and I feel like they all nailed the prompt in such unique ways.
All these feel like mythic/legendary Pokémon and I’m mclovin’ it ❤️ Edit: These girls could be the cast of a anime of a gang of protagonists growing into there roles as heroes, with each fitting a different protagonist trope/archetype and growing together through the power of friendship. I’d watch it.
Honestly the wardursa line reminds me of like and elder guardian that a protagonist learns from and could have a spinoff prequel story that follows that characters life. A middle stage honestly could probably be the best protagonist look for it
That bear Pokémon is a really cool idea. Needing to learn discipline while possessing the confidence to train and take on any enemy is a very compelling and original personality. They should really make a DLC where you get to take a bear Pokémon through that journey…
Damn these were all top tier but Vergolophus' was the best for me. I'm EXTREMELY picky for what Pokémon I catch. Hers would be on my team in a heartbeat and I would build the team around it even.
I recently watched the movie Brother Bear again which is a fantastic, adorable, feel good movie that I highly recommend if you haven't seen it. A large part fo that movie is about the dichtomy of man vs. nature and how they both have a vital part to play in protecting the balance of the world. It's a very spiritual movie and pulls a lot of its themes from the traditions of Indigenous tribes of North America, and the bear is (obviously) a very important spiritual symbol in the movie. Seeing Subjectively's Pokemon designs being based on the bear, the protector of the forest and the guardian of nature, reminded me so much of that movie, and Detenya looks so much like Koda it's uncanny.
Gotta give props. Huge pokemon fan not huge into fan made mons. I watched this entire video & it was awesome. Loved hearing the artists notes & seeing how each took the terms & interpreted them. Awesome video
For the first Pokémon I would think to change the ability to 5% increase to attack for each Pokémon in your party, so it fits the theme of protecting friends and like it grows alongside you if it was a starter.
It is kind of weird how Lucario is basically the only pokemon who utilises the pokemon universes version of life energy, it's cool to see another pokemon do it and also look strong as hell too. The final evolution gives me big Kill la Kill vibes although if I were to have this pokemon in a game I think I would give it gendered forms, maybe the male version would create a shield out of aura instead?
Nekokira has an insane typing, stats, and ability. On it's own it has 260 attack 120 speed 100 power move that gets stronger. Instant Ubers, might even be a mythical or legendary
In my opinion, I think the bear one was much less main protagonist, and more motherly and even mysterious. For example, I could imagine someone getting a glance of them watching over the forest in the distance or just getting small looks at them throughout, only truly showing themselves in the final battle to defeat the overall threat.
Now THIS is something i'd love to see again. Love all of the designs, they all seemed like heroes and protectors in their own stories, worlds and/or regions. I hope to maybe see this become somewhat regular here on the channel, like once a month or 2 months
I love hearing everyone’s artistic thought process during the design time, you guys all crushed this. But oh my gosh Vergo made my favorite designs, she really read my dream journal of Pokémon id love to see, I want them so badly ;u;
I loved seeing all four of the final evolutions together at the end, and they all look so different, but also very cohesive in a way. I can imagine a Raihan style gym leader (So allowing type variation) that would just use all four of them.
PART 2 is happening! But since this kind of video takes time to organize AND we're all gonna be busy with Legends: Arceus, you will have to wait until March for part 2. BUT There are some TOP TIER videos coming up in February, so thanks for subscribing, if you have. Feb 5 - Creating Legendary Pokémon Pre-evolutions Feb 12 - 1st Annual Pokémon Awards (Fan Poll Results) Feb 19 - How to Design Pokémon - Grass Types Feb 26 - Pokémon Legends: Arceus Review (Hopefully) And March's content is even better ;)
My god i want these to be official so much, I especially loved the Neko and Cometita lines This is such a cool format too, it'd be so cool to have more collabs with prompts like these!
Moxie is a man of culture, if you say “2 stage” to a TCG player they are going to assume you’re talking about a Pokémon with more than one evolutions; in the TCG it goes: Basic/stage1/stage2
After seeing some of the new Pokémon in Legends, these were refreshingly amazing designs Great work all around, everyone, awesome Pokémon I’d want on my team
I really like solidillo, I can imagine it still having the tail and the halberd as a testimonial to its battle prowess. The longer the time with the blade the more powerful a Pokémon
Literally with each new design, I thought “oh this is my favorite!” But now I realize they’re all my favorite. Really fun video, I hope you guys do more!
Nekokira would be a freaking BEHEMOTH competitively IMO, with that typing, ability, 130 Attack and 121 Speed, and a great signature move. Also, Level 32 feels too early for Nekokira, it should probably be Level 45-50 at the least.
Imo? This thing would dominate OU for sure. The only thing holding it back would be a bad moveset. However, Fairy , Fighting , and Steel Coverage is already pretty nice.
I would love to see a collab between you and Rubber Ross! His fakemon gartic phone streams are so entertaining to watch and I think you would make a great artist along with all the other artist he works with!
I absolutely love how positive & supportive everyone is with each other! So wonderful to have a wholesome space to create and show each other with everyone being excited! (especially in the place of the internet where it's easy to be surrounded of toxicity) This was a joy to behold! Ty for sharing with us!
Also needs some balancing. It has 121 speed and effectively either 215 or 260 attack with three different stab move types, and a 100 power move that further boosts attack on fainting blows. I really like the idea of the abilities based on the party- they constrain you somewhat, but the Pokemon having both is redundant and takes away from the constraints. Signature move is also ridiculously strong.
Man this was such an insanely cool video! I really loved how the different ways you thought about pokemon lead to such interesting and distinct designs. The matriarchal bear really does feel like a Japanese take on American indigenous bear spirits. Absolutely love all 9 of these creations and you guys interacting in it ;)
I really enjoyed hearing everyone's explanation of how they draw up their inspiration, and you can tell each person has their own unique way of creating a design. I think Pokemon in general should be in that direction so it flows because some Generations they looks so sloppy and rushed with a mixture of different design strategies. Especially, when a lot of the designs don't correlate with the region The Generation is discovered. Hopefully The Pokemon company will pay attention to how artist like all of you develop your own design language and will hire people that have the same vision. Each Generation does not have to be the same in design it has to flow with the region the Pokemon develop in, which is where finding the right Artistic style is important. Moxie's style of Pokemon seems very tough and medieval like that I would see those kind of Pokemon developing in a region that has close ties to The Renaissance Era such as with castles, fortresses kind of like Games of Thrones time period. Vergolophus I LOVED her futuristic approach and space with the stars and such kind of gives off The North Pole region especially with the presence of The Northern Lights. I could see her design language in Pokemon from space and even those that develop in cold harsh environments or in caves. Subjectively and Truegreen hit the nail right on the head going by nature and the environment and I can definitely see them creating many Pokemon that serve their purposes in a specific type of region. Well done all of you!

Same 😂
Technically plants absorb star power.
That's... Sunlight? So hyper beam? If I remember moves correctly. Or giga drain maybe.
@@StonedtotheBones13 Solar Beam, actually.
I can imagine the Neko evolution line being the closest relatives to Mew

The fact that they include a shiny version of their Pokémon is amazing. I love it
Well a pokemon without a shiny , would never will be consider as a pokemon lmfao
I feel like, though, Moxie's shiny's sword shouldn't have been gold with the rest. Maybe a green tone?
It's a low hanging fruit - you just recolour what youa already have. :P

As an artist, these critiques keep me going
That Neko line could totally be a starter. It reminded me of Delphox.
In fact they could be related somehow since Delphox is more of a spell caster and Nekokira is more of a warrior type.
Similar to Gallade and Gardevoir?

It reminds me of meowscarada in some ways, which is the biggest compliment I can give because the Spigatito line are my 3 favourite pokémon

2:10

If they ever do this again…they need to make their Pokémon’s ANTAGONIST!! Also have it be cunning and wicked
Edit:Holy crap guys! I wasn’t expecting this many of you guys to agree with me! Thanks
Yes
I keep thinking a one stage should be best for a villain Pokémon but I also think multistage that previews the final is also good
That would be a great 'part 2', and maybe another prompt could be a 'supporter' pokemon like a sidekick/healer/follower kind of deal using the protagonist/antagonist
The villain should Def have three stages like most final bosses in video games!
like stage one is a mediocre villan and stage two is when the joke villain gets serious and shows how much of a threat they are

As much as I like Dragonite, something like Sairanova would’ve been so cool as a final evolution

Conquistadillo 😗 👌

Best way of describing them without spoiling them! God it's too accurate
Mew w/ a lightsaber got me cackling-
I love how they all went "what if pokemon, but girlboss?"
Also they look like the four queens of four different nations, that will unite against the big bad to save the world, setting aside the differences of their lands and helping each other
Sounds like a DnD campaign
The loyal and friendly Nekokira,
The graceful and mysterious Saivanova
The calm and judging Wardursa
And the Strong and bulky Solidillo
Each Pokémon come from different areas,
The deep forests where Wardursa reside,
The Rocky Mountains where Solidillo live,
The edges of the atmosphere for Saivanova
And cities or other public spaces for Nekokira
When an ominous force endangers the forests, villages, mountains, and hills where these queens reside, they come together to stop it before it’s too late…

Vergolophus' mons give me Mew/Mewtwo vibes, like Cometita is a mythical Pokemon and Sairanova is an experiment made from her DNA. I know that wasn't the design philosophy but it what immediately came to mind when seeing them together.
I think it's their proportions. They have very Mew & Mewtwo-esque porporpotions

Its kinda like a high femme Mewtwo imo
Mewtwo is the Dark Magical Girl to Sairanova’s Magical Girl.
This is one of the most artistically satisfying things I've seen in a while. The designs are excellent, hearing the narratives & the artists' processes is very engaging, and the commentary is wonderfully insightful. Even my gamer/pokemon brain loves having the stats and descriptions. Everything is just right on and you all seem so lovely.

nekokira: retired adventurer/only survivor

I would Totally watch a Anime with these as the main character designs. Doesn't even have to be pokemon, just these designs are great.
moxie’s really does look like an early pokemon design
even with the colors, if you noticed, most gen 1 designs use 2-3 colors bc of gameboy hardware limitations
"I've always wanted an ability that essentially gives you a third type."
Dhelmise: Am I a joke to you?
i thought my renewed dunsparce idea was gonna have an original ability, massive L then lol
Dhelmise always seems forgotten, which makes sense due it just looking like a seaweedy anchor
The first line made me realize that I am terribly unsatisfied with all official cat Pokémon.
The espurr line is pretty good, but other than that I agree
Alolan Meowth 😂
I think a good way to make Friend Aura work competitively could be "if any pokemon in the party are at 50% or less HP it increases attack"
i always wonder why gamefreak themselves don’t reach out to artists like these and bring them in to help work on official designs
Honestly same if they hold a sort of event where random artists can create their own Pokemon line with freedom of typing and background within certain regulations and boundaries not only are they reducing workload on their proper employees so they can focus on graphics and animation instead on brainstorming Pokemon and if will allow the community to become more connected with the game. The only problem would be payment to the many artists if it isn’t a volunteering event where they won’t get paid and they will have to rely on strangers to keep to the boundaries set and deadlines.

Gen 3 is what happens when too many artists are involved. Not that that's inherently bad, but there is a higher chance for iffy designs.

I get competitive viability wasn't considered, but holy crap Nekokira is so freaking busted that it would make zacian look like a fair and balanced Pokemon.
It's just a better Zacian, there's no denying it. I mean it even has a move that acts as a Moxie/Beast Boost *on top* of being a 100 bp 100% move.
@@thebookless3381 on top of having a really good attack and speed stats on top of having 3 abilities in one on top of always having at least 1 attack boost but usually more
and it would be more readily available in contrast to a box art legendary where you get only 1 in 1 game and it might get egg moves too for even more strength
@@haydenford9587 AND it has the best defensive typing in the game AND it’ll probably get good coverage moves since it uses a sword (so all blade/sword moves are on the table) AND it’s pretty much guaranteed to get access to swords dance. Wayyy too op even for someone that would know nothing about competitive. But it is soul just for fun so I guess it’s fine idk
Probably in Mega Rayquaza tier, but that's ok lol
I love that Vergo uses Looker as a height reference for her designs, truly the Looker brainrot never ends lmao
Nekokira NEEDS a mega evolution!! It would be perfect with the themeing and everything!
Imagine a gigantamax where the sword grows huge
This was really fun and really great. I've seen comments calling for a villain for these Pokemon, but I think it'd be cool to do like a rival to these Pokemon; something mischievous but also misunderstood. Another really cool idea would be to come up with evolutions or pre-evolutions for already existing Pokemon. I think it'd be a fun and interesting way to test your creativity. Thanks for the vid.
Ooo i’d love to see evos/preevos for the same existing pokemon to see all the ways it could go!!!
Kind of like a Loki/Thor in the mythology dynamic?
@@potatoonwheels I was thinking more along the lines of Izuku and Bakugo, but I guess that works too.
TrueGreen7, Subjectively, Moxie2D, and Vergolophus all in the same video?!?! THIS IS THE BEST CROSSOVER OF THE CENTURY!!!
Infinity war wishes it was this cool
When I think of "protector" the first thing that comes to mind is 'defence" so I was really surprised when I saw the first Pokemon with its lowest stat being DEF. But the 3rd and 4th Pokemons really fit well with what I had in mind. Good job everyone, they're all really great.
The best defense is offense lol
defense is more like "protection". Protector is more like a personality thing and it fits really well with the whole friendship abilities
@@venturabeatz2775spoken like a true ash 🤣
I love how Moxie unknowingly made Zacian in cat form.
I think I know why Nekokira doesn't read as a Pokemon: a combination of its eyes, weapon, and humanoid figure make it look like a very early, high-level Digimon. Like somehow the logical transition point between Gatomon and Magnadramon.
Someone needs to make a show about these four, and the Pokémon are fighting evil in the world, like it’s sick
Oh. My. God. I am in LOVE with Neko's evolution line and Cometita. I want them to be real so badly 😭 I also really want a plush of Cometita. It's just so cuuuute!! I'm so mad that they aren't real and probably never will be. Game Freak really needs to hire you guys
It's not fun to work for a company who will take complete ownership of your art. I very much doubt they'd like it. Besides that, Nintendo and Gamefreak likely have extremely big privacy standards.
A few of my family members are great at knitting, we can get you a knitted plush of Cometita? It'd take a while but it's possible!
@@devixlevio257 omg I would love to have one too pleaseeeee 🥺🙏 if you list it online I will buy it, Cometita was my favorite!
@@xxhowisuxx Oh I didn't think about that. That would suck but it'd still be cool if they could design Pokémon for the official games because these designs are too good
@@devixlevio257 Oh that'd be amazing!!!
If Moxio2D's fakemon was real, it would be my all time favorite pokemon. I love Lucario and cute pink pokemon with power are my favorite. Beautiful design
Thank you :)
Neko - Nekokira was amazing! I absolutely loved it. I can imagine Moxie in a nuzlocke with Nekokira and did basically what happened with Greg and basically have Nekokira as Greg 2.0
I like how Vergo interpreted protagonist, as a pokemon the protagonist would use. If the others were protagonists I'd mostly see it in some PMD or otherwise type setting, where the pokemon themselves are the main characters, whereas I think Sairanova would work great as a partner pokemon in a pokemon manga/anime with a female MC.
The Sairanova line is on the level of Ken Sugimori.
Vergolophus should be a chief designer with Game Freak.
It kinda looks like dragonair on legs.
@@thejinxedcat3616 someone else said it looks like what Dragonite should have looked like, and I kinda agree
In terms of concept, I really liked that of the Nekokira line. In terms of design, the Sairanova hit a homerun. I really enjoyed this content. I'm hoping to see more from these artists. Y'all did an incredible job!
I really like Nekuni. the concept of their power being too much to handle is cool.
Nekokira is nice too (who doesn't love giant swords) but I wish there was something on their arms and legs. I think them being so bare makes them seem too human-like.
Agree, though I still love it. Maybe include more of the 'leaking Aura' idea and have it edge the hip fluff to make it longer? Or the ankle fluff.
Or maybe make the sword like energy blades leaking out from the arm
A thoroughly delightful and engaging video from beginning to conclusion. This art collaboration was ambitious, and it certainly delivered above and beyond!
The design characteristics of your designs, their themes and inspiration demonstrate great sensitivity to the appointed criteria. Yet your various perspectives, experiences and personalities produced intelligently designed Pokémon. In a way, the different end results enable all four Pokémon to contribute to each other beautifully.
Moreover, the individual design approaches and creation processes, coupled with the hilarious banter, the complementary and insightful comments to the finished products make this video greatly insightful. It is always fascinating to see how one choice over another, prior to and during the creation process, contribute enormously to a work of art.
All in all, a fantastic collaboration from you four! You should all definitely do another one in the future! Keep up with your awesome art!
I love vergo’s Pokémon so much!! I do wish she’d kept the star on the tail for Sairanova though
I love it when artists get together and are super positive about each other’s artwork. It’s so nice and all of these works are great!
Loved all the designs. I was worried with the bear like “not another bipedal fighting type bear Pokémon” but it actually looks amazing !! If it was real it’d be my fav.
He took the hardest animal to make feminine and protagonist and did it well.
I like how the final forms could form a superhero team lol. Like imagine a Pokemon Dungeon anime, where it's a world of only Pokemon, and they're the superhero team that saves Pokemon all over. Overall, lovely designs!
9:44 I was thinking with the Nekokira evolution in a Nuzlocke it could still work, kinda brutal method tho...
You could use Nekuni for a while and then by the time she's at lvl 32 or higher you should have some early lower level pokemon just sitting in your pc, bring 5 onto your team with the intention on them dying, which will then evolve Nukuni.
Real dark method, but effective. Just think of it as their transferring all their power to Nekokira, kinda like a "Spirit Bomb" evolution lol
I was totally thinking the same thing... Just bring a bunch of generic route 1 bug Pokemon to a gym trainer battle or something
Or Namekian Fusion
I'm sorry little one...
**They're**
EDIT:
Gentlemen, it is with great sadness that I must inform you that...
No, it was not they're. He was correct, it was their.
But in nuzlockes you can only catch one pokemon per route so it would be costly even then…
@@maddiesmenagerie8853 Yea, it would be a costly trade, but in every Nuzlocke I have ever run there by the time I am in the mid 30's I usually have 5-10 pokemon that I would only use if things go deep south. Usually because of bad natures.
Sedimini reminds me of Jaiden's Platinum nuzlocke where she was swinging her Turtwig like a bludgeon. I loved all of the designs today and I feel like they all nailed the prompt in such unique ways.
All these feel like mythic/legendary Pokémon and I’m mclovin’ it ❤️
Edit: These girls could be the cast of a anime of a gang of protagonists growing into there roles as heroes, with each fitting a different protagonist trope/archetype and growing together through the power of friendship. I’d watch it.
I love that they didn’t just create an image. They create the entire bios for it
Would love to see more of these with pseudo legendaries, starters or legendaries
I really liked the star dragon one, I would 100% hunt for a trading card of it.
This makes me wanna make a pokemon so bad. Loves these kinds of videos.
The more you do it, the better you will get at it! :D no better time to start than now! I believe in you ^^
Honestly the wardursa line reminds me of like and elder guardian that a protagonist learns from and could have a spinoff prequel story that follows that characters life. A middle stage honestly could probably be the best protagonist look for it
That bear Pokémon is a really cool idea. Needing to learn discipline while possessing the confidence to train and take on any enemy is a very compelling and original personality. They should really make a DLC where you get to take a bear Pokémon through that journey…
Little Neko and Sairanova turned out absolutely incredible! This is a great video series and I hope to see more of it :3
I love the concept. Can't wait to see how everyone interpreted the prompts 🤩
Damn these were all top tier but Vergolophus' was the best for me.
I'm EXTREMELY picky for what Pokémon I catch. Hers would be on my team in a heartbeat and I would build the team around it even.
Absolutely! I agreee, I can definetly see cometita line in pokemon
I recently watched the movie Brother Bear again which is a fantastic, adorable, feel good movie that I highly recommend if you haven't seen it. A large part fo that movie is about the dichtomy of man vs. nature and how they both have a vital part to play in protecting the balance of the world. It's a very spiritual movie and pulls a lot of its themes from the traditions of Indigenous tribes of North America, and the bear is (obviously) a very important spiritual symbol in the movie. Seeing Subjectively's Pokemon designs being based on the bear, the protector of the forest and the guardian of nature, reminded me so much of that movie, and Detenya looks so much like Koda it's uncanny.
Great video! I loved seeing everyone's different approach to the criteria. All of you are incredibly talented.
Bro the video just came out
@@chonkycowpigedd8054 he gets early access I believe
@@chonkycowpigedd8054 His Members as well as Patrons I believe get early access to videos. Meaning I can watch and comment on them like 2 days early.
@@connorcassani329 yeah probably
@@CommanderBlaze66 ok
Gotta give props. Huge pokemon fan not huge into fan made mons. I watched this entire video & it was awesome. Loved hearing the artists notes & seeing how each took the terms & interpreted them. Awesome video
And the second girl with her love for dragons immediatly won me over ! I oove them too so much. And the first evolution is adorable Qqq
For the first Pokémon I would think to change the ability to 5% increase to attack for each Pokémon in your party, so it fits the theme of protecting friends and like it grows alongside you if it was a starter.
It is kind of weird how Lucario is basically the only pokemon who utilises the pokemon universes version of life energy, it's cool to see another pokemon do it and also look strong as hell too. The final evolution gives me big Kill la Kill vibes although if I were to have this pokemon in a game I think I would give it gendered forms, maybe the male version would create a shield out of aura instead?
Nekokira has an insane typing, stats, and ability. On it's own it has 260 attack 120 speed 100 power move that gets stronger. Instant Ubers, might even be a mythical or legendary
I’d like to imagine a sub-anime of these guys traveling as a classic RPG Party
In my opinion, I think the bear one was much less main protagonist, and more motherly and even mysterious. For example, I could imagine someone getting a glance of them watching over the forest in the distance or just getting small looks at them throughout, only truly showing themselves in the final battle to defeat the overall threat.
Now i only have in my head "I WANT MORE" those designes are soo cool i love them
Now THIS is something i'd love to see again.
Love all of the designs, they all seemed like heroes and protectors in their own stories, worlds and/or regions.
I hope to maybe see this become somewhat regular here on the channel, like once a month or 2 months
I love hearing everyone’s artistic thought process during the design time, you guys all crushed this.
But oh my gosh Vergo made my favorite designs, she really read my dream journal of Pokémon id love to see, I want them so badly ;u;
I loved seeing all four of the final evolutions together at the end, and they all look so different, but also very cohesive in a way. I can imagine a Raihan style gym leader (So allowing type variation) that would just use all four of them.
This would make Nekokira the most terrifying ace Pokémon in the series. Would make Whitney’s Miltank look weak
I love Vergo and Jack’s approaches to Pokémon design. I think this is a great format for a video.
I love the shiny versions of the Neko line, especially the boosted glow and energy of the sword, and the little star(s)
PART 2 is happening! But since this kind of video takes time to organize AND we're all gonna be busy with Legends: Arceus, you will have to wait until March for part 2. BUT There are some TOP TIER videos coming up in February, so thanks for subscribing, if you have.
Feb 5 - Creating Legendary Pokémon Pre-evolutions
Feb 12 - 1st Annual Pokémon Awards (Fan Poll Results)
Feb 19 - How to Design Pokémon - Grass Types
Feb 26 - Pokémon Legends: Arceus Review (Hopefully)
And March's content is even better ;)
Draw desing Kanakid Normal/Fight, Asutiny Normal/Fight, Asuburn Proison/Fight
You should do Dewott evolutions. All of them will be better then what the Pokémon company came up with!
That's good cuz this was really interesting and fun
Nooice

My god i want these to be official so much, I especially loved the Neko and Cometita lines
This is such a cool format too, it'd be so cool to have more collabs with prompts like these!
Moxie is a man of culture, if you say “2 stage” to a TCG player they are going to assume you’re talking about a Pokémon with more than one evolutions; in the TCG it goes:
Basic/stage1/stage2
I guess Ron is looking to be the Pokemon version of Drawfee.
I would love for Ron to appear in a Drawfee Pokémon Ep! Imagine his reactions to Julia’s mons…..
@@lucki_8052 That'd be great!
After seeing some of the new Pokémon in Legends, these were refreshingly amazing designs
Great work all around, everyone, awesome Pokémon I’d want on my team
I really like solidillo, I can imagine it still having the tail and the halberd as a testimonial to its battle prowess. The longer the time with the blade the more powerful a Pokémon
Literally with each new design, I thought “oh this is my favorite!” But now I realize they’re all my favorite. Really fun video, I hope you guys do more!
16:40 Idk why, but I get huge Servine vibes from this. Art looks fantastic!
They're all so freakin adorable 😭
Nekokira would be a freaking BEHEMOTH competitively IMO, with that typing, ability, 130 Attack and 121 Speed, and a great signature move. Also, Level 32 feels too early for Nekokira, it should probably be Level 45-50 at the least.
Imo? This thing would dominate OU for sure. The only thing holding it back would be a bad moveset. However, Fairy , Fighting , and Steel Coverage is already pretty nice.
@@joshieking6211Nah, it would go straight to AG. It's stats my be worse overall, but it has Intrepid Sword on every single drug known to man.
I would love to see a collab between you and Rubber Ross! His fakemon gartic phone streams are so entertaining to watch and I think you would make a great artist along with all the other artist he works with!
I absolutely love how positive & supportive everyone is with each other! So wonderful to have a wholesome space to create and show each other with everyone being excited! (especially in the place of the internet where it's easy to be surrounded of toxicity) This was a joy to behold! Ty for sharing with us!
Nekokira is very awesome concept, but I would give it fluffy on head over horn like Zorua, and just give it a socks or shoe in leg with white shade
Your pfp is amazing
Also needs some balancing. It has 121 speed and effectively either 215 or 260 attack with three different stab move types, and a 100 power move that further boosts attack on fainting blows. I really like the idea of the abilities based on the party- they constrain you somewhat, but the Pokemon having both is redundant and takes away from the constraints. Signature move is also ridiculously strong.
@@roguechlnchllla6564 "Ridiculously strong" *looks in Pyro Ball for Cinderace, a 150 power move*
@@brimfire7536 According to every site on the internet, it's 120, so I don't know what you're looking at.
@@roguechlnchllla6564 ah, im an idiot...still higher than 100
Man this was such an insanely cool video! I really loved how the different ways you thought about pokemon lead to such interesting and distinct designs. The matriarchal bear really does feel like a Japanese take on American indigenous bear spirits. Absolutely love all 9 of these creations and you guys interacting in it ;)
I really enjoyed hearing everyone's explanation of how they draw up their inspiration, and you can tell each person has their own unique way of creating a design. I think Pokemon in general should be in that direction so it flows because some Generations they looks so sloppy and rushed with a mixture of different design strategies. Especially, when a lot of the designs don't correlate with the region The Generation is discovered. Hopefully The Pokemon company will pay attention to how artist like all of you develop your own design language and will hire people that have the same vision. Each Generation does not have to be the same in design it has to flow with the region the Pokemon develop in, which is where finding the right Artistic style is important. Moxie's style of Pokemon seems very tough and medieval like that I would see those kind of Pokemon developing in a region that has close ties to The Renaissance Era such as with castles, fortresses kind of like Games of Thrones time period. Vergolophus I LOVED her futuristic approach and space with the stars and such kind of gives off The North Pole region especially with the presence of The Northern Lights. I could see her design language in Pokemon from space and even those that develop in cold harsh environments or in caves. Subjectively and Truegreen hit the nail right on the head going by nature and the environment and I can definitely see them creating many Pokemon that serve their purposes in a specific type of region. Well done all of you!
