It's been nearly 4 years since the starters of the Avoris Region were revealed. Taramby, Scorxio, and Ekino were revealed to be the starters of my third generation dex, taking place in the Avoris Region.

225 Taramby
228 Scorxio
231 Ekino

Now after several years, meet their evolved forms:


  • Rambliss, the Ram Pokémon

  • Toxiscore, the Toxic Claws Pokémon

  • Wizquid, the Novice Pokémon


Keep reading further to learn more about them and to understand why their designs took years to finalize.

Gen 3 Starter Evo Reveal


Rambliss, The Ram Pokémon

226 Rambliss

Rambliss emanates an aroma that purifies the air and their surroundings. They release spores when in a blissful state, spreading happy vibes to those nearby.

They like to keep their habitats clean and tidy. The flowers they grow produce a sweet aroma that calms people, which is why these Pokémon are popular in yoga and meditation. It is said to also purify and ward off any evil energy.


Toxiscore, The Toxic Claws Pokémon

229 Toxiscore

They secrete venom from their sharp claws and tail. The flames they emit may also contain toxins. Being a combination of fire and poison proves them to be a deadly weapon, as their attacks can leave severe toxic burns.

Toxiscore are known to harbor resentment toward people who mistreat them. As it grows more rage, so does the heat of their fire. These Pokémon are cunning and sly, strategizing their attacks in advance.


Wizquid, The Novice Pokémon

232 Wizquid

They mastered their skills after daily training, resulting in this evolution. They continue to perfect their water magic until they are ready to evolve again.

Wizquid remain loyal to their trainers and will do anything to not fail them. They train all day to impress people with their skills using water and magic.

Years In The Making

The evolutions to the Avoris Starters have been a long time coming and many were waiting to see them. Even when the Avoris Starters were very early in development, years before their reveal, I've played around with their evolution line many times. I was pretty solid in their general concepts, just not their designs themselves.


After the reveal of the starters, I continued to work more on their evolution lines. I was also pretty busy with other work so I didn't get to work on them as much as I wanted to. At one point, I was kinda liking where their designs were going but I wasn't fully feeling them. For me, I do not want to put something out that I'm not happy with. My design style has evolved throughout the years. That's why looking back at my first dex, I wanted to redesign most of it. But I know many have preferred the first versions of some fakemon that I redesigned. That's why I want to make sure I need to be satisfied with the new designs I upload.


It was only until recently where I was confident in the direction of the concept and evolution. So I am happy these evolutions were now revealed. I promise their final evolutions won't take years this time :)

In other news, I started subscriptions on DeviantArt where subscribers can get an early look at new fakemon before anyone else and access to my Discord focused on this project! I also have a tip jar enabled if you want to support me and my work that way :)


I also have a Ko-fi if you want to support me there as well.

Also feel free to follow me on Twitter and Instagram.


That's it for now! Thanks for reading!

A decade of Fakemon

I can not believe it has been nearly over a decade since I joined Deviant Art to showcase my Fakemon designs and never did I believe my designs would become so popular. And it is so great to see how much this community has grown throughout the decade. I love seeing so many artists create their own Fakemon and have their unique style with them.

A lot has happened in the past decade. I met many people on here and made great friends with them. I'm so grateful to still have those friends after all the good, bad, and ugly that we went through. Also happy to made new friends along the way.

Also very thankful for all the people that have been watching and supporting my work throughout the years. It means so much to me. You all gave me motivation to keep going further.

What's next?

I still have quite a lot of remaining Fakemon to finish up and submit but I'm nearly done. I'll be relieved when my Fakemon project is complete but why stop there. I really do enjoy making Fakemon and monster designing in general and I probably won't stop creating monsters for a long while.

Goals for 2020

Besides monster designs, I really do want to make more human character designs, starting with the Gym Leaders and other characters I need to finish up for my Fakemon project. I plan to also just design some characters for fun and post them here and on my Twitter. Follow my Twitter if you haven't yet!.

It's still early for me to be setting what kind of goals I want but I hope there will be more opportunities for me this year to work on projects.

What are your goals for the new year?



I think this is all I have to say for now. Again, thank you to everyone who's helped me and supported me throughout the decade. You made me a better person.

Please continue to support me in the future and watch me and my work grow. I love you all.

The Havai Division Starters have evolved!



Ekopi evolves into Ekoraft, the Crafter Pokémon.

Ekoraft are skilled at crafting weapons and tools with tree branches. The tools they craft help them perform daily tasks such as collecting food and building shelter for them.

They are very protective of their group and will defend its home with its life.


Flaero evolves into Impferno, the Fire Bat Pokémon.

An avid hunter, Impferno can control the light emitted from its ear tips to confuse its prey. When agitated, its horns can reach dangerously high temperatures and attack its foes with them.

They communicate with each other by displaying light signals from its horns.


Kelpony evolves into Maritide, the Reef Pokémon.

Maritide are protective of the reef it was born in. It helps to clean the area and get rid of trash. They are very helpful towards their community in the reefs.

They are very friendly and noble Pokémon. They will look out for its friends and Trainer.

New Fakemon Revealed!








Timingo


The Shy Pokémon



Timingo are very shy Pokémon who are not as confident as their evolved form, Flambagant. They easily get embarrassed so they hide their face in shame. By learning to be confident, it grows closer to evolving.


Oreglyph


The Ancient Stone Pokémon



They were discovered on an ancient burial site. It is believed to serve as tombstones, with each of them guarding a single grave. There is a mysterious power hidden in the core of their bodies.


Pipsicle


The Ice Body Pokémon



Their bodies are made up of a similar substance to Never-Melt Ice. They can withstand harsh temperatures. Their cold bodies help cool the air around themselves, and for that, they are commonly used indoors for those who don't have air conditioning.




A Sea-Life Mystery


Recently it was discovered that when Scubella breed, they result is a new species called Solamala. No one really knows why. However, two mating Solamala does not result in a Polypus, but another Solamala.

Polypus are known to reproduce asexually by budding. Some Polypus may be found holding a Coral Polyp, which must be planted in a reef. The polyp will later grow into a Polypus.


A Special Nawdile



Nawdile, the Grass-type starter of the Orohn Division, is known to evolve into Aliblador, which then evolves into Razorvile.

But recently, it was discovered that Nawdile may also evolve into a Camodile. They love sunlight and bask in it the entire day. They cool off by swimming in freshwater.

Camodile also lurk in murky rivers, waiting for prey. It attacks its foes with its powerful piercing bite.


Camodile is known to evolve into Sarcovile. Sarcovile love humid tropical climate. They are very skilled hunters on land and in waters. Its body can easily camouflage with its surroundings.
Murky lakes and swamps emptied of habitable Pokémon are likely due to groups of Sarcovile hunting for food. There have been records of Sarcovile exceeding over 15 feet in length.

Stay tuned for more details on how this Nawdile split-evolves!



That's all for the news today. Stay tuned for more info...eventually.
