- Pokémon Scarlet and Violet was a blast on the Nintendo switch. But we all know that generation 9 had some stinkers. Using my fakemon skills I plan on redoing them.
#pokemon #fakemon #art - Hry
My favorite redesign is Scovillain, I really love the fact that the heads actually have different personalities now, and the little skull.
They should've give him an extra evo that has the yellow pepper (and preferably looks like a dragon, that'd be cool) I like it anyway.
@@S3cr3t_Qw1rtzbut the idea is it’s a hot pepper, there are only yellow bell peppers and not hot peppers as far as I’m aware, and even if there are they don’t give off hot vibes which would kinda ruin the idea
@@scallionplays true. On an unrelated note, am I the only one bothered by the fact that fire type attacks come out from the green head/grass attacks come out of me red head and not the other way around?
I would really like if Flamigo and squawkabilly were counter parts...Flamigo being a fairy fighting and squawkabilly would be dark fighting or dark steel could be cool
Scovillian is my favorite pokemon from Paldea so I was scared to see what you'd do for its redesign. However, I can firmly say it did not disappoint and I'm impressed that you came up with a really unique new concept that I haven't seen done before, Froopy does it again! 🔥
Finally someone who loves scovillain as much as I do
@@CranberryLucas we have to stand strong together 💪🏻😭 there aren’t many of us
@@CuriousChaos in my playthrough of violet I named my scovillian dr pepper
i just wanna change the hydrapple and dipplin type to poison and dragon
I’ve seen so many fan designs where they evolve Scovillain by giving it a third head and I always think that ruins the masks duality theme but your take is awesome
My one nitpick with scovillain is that I'd personally go for a more yellow colour,
Even if orange probably looks better.
I just like the comtrast in expression being just as extreme as the contrast in colours
The redesigns are great, but I think one reason some of the designs were kind of lackluster is because they are Pokemon that need to move around the overworld. The designs you made are great, but I noticed that a lot of them really don’t have the ability to move (like Spidops, or Spoolder as I’d like to call it), and others look incredible moreso because of the pose, like Scovillain (which is still an insane design, but with the crossed legs, it’s hard to imagine how great it would look running around Paldea), same with Flamigo, who looks great here, but I don’t think it could just hop around on one wing the whole game, lol
I actually gave this some thought during the design process but just didn't talk about it in the video. Spidops/Spoolder, would just hop off its butt and run on all its legs when in motion. Scovillian would walk normally, with the point where the vines cross serving as the hip point. And flamigo would walk normally, it only does silly flips and what not in battle. It definitely wouldn't be on one wing the whole time.
Spoolder is an awesome name! Love it!
I sort of have to disagree. I feel like In soul silver the overworld sprites we’re basic, which could still be the same for ScarVio in the sense that it’s just them walking about. The personality of a pokemon tends to come out in battle and currently their 3d sprites are lackluster in regards to fighting. If they gave Pokémon better fighting animations I feel like it would make up for it.
I disagree that these pokemon redesigns don’t look like they can move. It’s just the posing that might make you think they’re stiff and immobile. But it’s easy to imagine how these pokemon could still theoretically move around outside of the pose.
I wish that Gimmighoul's evolution was comepletely different. I wish that it had become one with the chest and coins - becoming a full-blown mimic inspired Pokemon. It could still have arms made of coins to help it move around, and it would be a very defensive/tanky -mon. Gholdengo just looks too much like a string-cheese mascot covered in gold foil.
I also wanted it to be a mimic!!!
Agreed, or at least look like royalty rather than a crypto mascot.
Maybe a new name for the Spydops redesign could be Awrapnid (arachnid+wrap)
Oh dang, that's good.
Crushed it with baxcalibur, that thing would go straight into my party if it was the true design - and I usually hate the over complicated looks of pseudos! Nice work 👌
I think the biggest issue with Spidops was simply that it came off of Tarountula. If it as on its own, a garrat wire wielding ogre spider is a great concept, not so much since it evolves from a yarn ball with legs. I think you really fixed it with going back to focusing on the thread crafting motif.
For the capsakid line, I feel like you fixed a lot with Scovillian's proportions, but I think it would have done better with a distinct torso rather than just loosely coiled vines. It makes it feel like a bit too fragile, like it could unravel easily. The petal ruffles were a good call though
Flamigo -> Gingamingo (from _ginga_ , pronounced "ˈʒin-ga", the main footwork in capoeira)
Spidops -> Spindler or Spinder (from spin/spindle)
Also I love that Baxcalibur is more quadrupedal-looking! Making the entire body the sword is so much more natural than the Godzilla attack pose. You could imagine it swimming through the ground and lunging to strike
Gingamingo is just perfect. It utilizes the inspiration and is just super fun to say!
@@froopyart I like both Gingamingo's name and design.
Ok I love og Spidops but yours is really REALLY good
Awesome as always, Flamigo is one of my favorite new mons from gen 9 because I love the simplicity of the design, but I do agree that it makes no sense to the fighting type, the way you literally just tweaked the design a little and justified the fighting type was perfectly executed, also, I'm a Brazilian myself so I was very pleased by the reference to capoeira hehehe
Fantastic video but walking out at the mention of Skeledirge and Scovillain 😢
When I first saw capsakid by accident before I played the game, I thought it was a little green bird with an eggshell on its head, it didn’t even register as a pepper to me at first. I can’t help but think about if they leaned into the bird look and made Scovillain a cool two headed pepper bird!
skeledirge is my favorite final evo from any starter. (even though owls are my favorite animal and ghost and grass are my favorite typings)
its just so pointy and beast looking. but at the same time so soft on the inside. singing beautiful songs and being based on the synergy between bird and crocodile. it is a ghost type because it creates and uses ghosts not because he is one and the entire evolutionary line is so amazing. start of with a stem that seem to be born from a thought. then it becomes a full nest with a egg in it looking like sombrero. then it is a bird in the end that it controls with its voice. the design you made looked absolutely beautiful and i think it would be cool for a regional variant or for a gender based evolution.
the pawmi line do i really like because it doesnt change a lot but still is 3 stage.
Your redesign of Spidops could easily start up a crochet club with Leavanny!
Yeah they could!
The Spidops looks like it adds enough to base Spidops’ design to be a Mega Evolution, but I’d prefer it if Spidops got a regular evolution, considering how lackluster the mon is in battle.
The Capsakid redesign looks like it could be a Ghost type regional variant, and it’s evolution there looks like a branching Regional Evolution, like Perrserker or Clodsire
I REALLY like that Baxcalibur redesign. I’d imagine, in motion, its animation for its signature move, Glaive Rush would be a full on frontflip bringing the tail blade down on its opponent, instead of the canon one’s weird 50s Godzilla-style half-flip.
Great designs. Kudos
Thanks! Yeah, the front flip tail slice would be dope as heck.
And once again, a redesign misses that Spidops is also a spec ops agent
Yeah, the original design missed the mark with spec ops so much that I didn't feel the need to try and incorporate it.
by far the best ones are buxcaliber and capsakid. baxcaliber is just what it was supposed to be. and capsakid is different and feel like a regional form of the original and I'm a bit upset you removed all the kappa inspiration (its in the name and the original design) but its really good on its own
Oh, jeez. I never even picked up on it being inspired a kappa, since it isn't present in the evolution. But I see it now. I just assumed the name was referencing Capsaicin, the chemical that makes peppers spicy.
@@froopyart its both
I would name the spidops redesign "spoolder"
Bro be taking my job. In all seriousness these redesigns are amazing and I love how different they all are I can't even pick a favourite
I love flamigo, but your redesign is pretty good. Something I would change would be the beak, so.. in that sense yours is better.
There's pictures out there where people draw pokemon as if they were the missing link evolution picture and that's what the Pawmi line makes me think of
I like the idea for baxcalibur, but the arms look really short for it walking on all fours. Especially with the sail in the front, it looks like it would have to be dragging that through the dirt and pushing with its legs to go forward. Good redesigns though. Makes you wonder how many iterations and what kind of feedback Gamefreak goes through during their own design process when they still come out with big duds in the final product sometimes
Oh yeah, my choice of pose wasn't ideal. It's just low to the ground, but is still bipedal.
You’re designs is way better then the normal ones we got sucks yours are way better wished theses were what we got instead! 😮😢
I think my favorite redesign you've done is for Spideops(?)! I don't like how the pre-evo goes from being a cute little yarn spider to this weird tactical yarn ogre spider. I just feel like the two don't fit together (though I feel that about the other Bug line in SV with me honestly not liking the evos of the yarn spider and Nymble with me not being found of the pre-evo for the dung beetle mon).
While I don't necessarily hate the redesign of the Scovillain line, I can't help but think of how it was one of the Gen 9 mons that should have been a 3 stage line with the whole seed/flower becoming two bell peppers then three, as I've seen a lot of people make. I will say I do like how you incorporated the white in the design to add a little extra color there as well as make the green bell pepper more orangey yellow to give it more fiery colors as opposed to all greens and then there's a touch of red in the head. (And the part about the skulls representing the Ghost typing, I can see that fitting Caspakid more than Scovillain in this redesign, but honestly skull imagery works well for the whole spicy theme in the line.)
I wholeheartedly agree with taking out the middle stage for the Pawmi line. I feel like Gen 9 had a lot of unnecessary 3 stage lines when some I felt only needed 2 or could have just been a single stage mon with tacked on pre-evos.
I admittedly had a knee jerk reaction to Skeledirge from the leaks, and I sort of regret that because Skeledirge's design has grown on me quite a bit. Sadly, I can't say the same for the pseudo legendary line. I get that it's supposed to be Shin Godzilla or whatever it's called, but I just like any of the mons in that line. They have got to be the worst pseudo line for me as far as design (and of course it has to be a type combination finally given to a non-legendary geez!)
Spidops really needed that
Okay, I actually like Baxcalibur , but dang your redesign is so much better
While I don’t really have any opinion on the others, the baxcaliber is great!
Thanks! Yeah, That was the one I wanted to get right the most.
I would literally choose that Spidops redesign over the official one and have it on my team. It looks amazing!
Oeh baxcalibur leveled up so much! Well done Gabe! ❤
Thanks, Nick!
Pinching could evolve into a sea serpent pineapple tree or a different yokai that's a pineapple dessert, or you could do something with white pinnaples
Definitely like your Baxcalibur, Flamigo and Scovillain. Keep it up. Question, are u gonna put the rest of Paleon dex on DeviantArt soon?
Eventually. My life is just ridiculously busy and deviant art is a low priority for me.
great work, i love them
All great designs that are much more satisfying then what we have. Personally I believe Lechonk's evolution and the water starter are pokemon that need a redesign.
Totally
i actually prefer the originals however i do love your take on these (I had a feeling spidops was based on the ogre spider!) Honestly though i want pokemon to branch out into different species of bugs en all like maybe one based on the Brazilian Wandering Spider known for its like red undermarkings on its legs!
All en all,amazing artwork!
I love this version of scovillian and capsikid, it's what we should have got from the start
It seems after Ken sugimori stopped doing the artwork for Pokemon they've gone downhill big time. What I hate about a lot of gen 9 Pokemon is that some of the animalistic Pokemon just don't even look natural or rather they look like robots. It's terrible enough that we have God awful future pardox Pokemon that are just robots and nothing else, but then we have Pokemon like Spidops, Veluza, Lokix,Nymble, Orthworm etc that just look mechanical. Even skeledirge, who I think is an otherwise great design has a weird underbelly which just throws off the overall designs beauty.
I love your scovillan redesging because scovillan is my favorite pokemon
Skeledirge also disappointed me so much! And I love fire and alligators so that was a big L
I love all those, and yeah I'm not a big fan of gen 9... 8.. 7... 6.. design for the majority but I like normal spidops, I think he's really neat looking but yours is pretty cool too.
You missed the whole point of flamigo, which is "it's just a bird"
Yeah... that's a pretty bad point to be making in the first place.
These are some of my favorites Pokémon from the region
I fr thought that was capsakid's skull untill now 🥲
How do fix u a voltorb line?
Nah bro you dont do my boy Pawmo like that
Other than that, they're good
Thank you for being brave enough to admit that Spidops is not a bad design
OH MY GOD CAPOEIRA ok ok ok
I did a gen 9 fighting types nuzlocke of scarlet and named my Pokémon after martial arts. Annhilape was Krav Maga, Pawmot was Karate, and so on. But I named my FLAMIGO CAPOEIRA and now I’m SCREAMING because it looks so good and is how I will imagine her from now on. Thank you Froopy.
Ah! I love it! What awesome names for a nuzlocke! Were you successful? I've only ever done one nuzlocke myself.
@@froopyart Not without losses o7
Turns out Great Tusk bulk up x6 against any pure physical attacker is pretty strong late-game though, so I did end up beating it. Thanks for the reply!
the Scovillain redesign feels like its own pokemon rather than a remake, that it, you just made a new pokemon rather than make Scovillain better which i think are two completely different things. and i don't think "we already have Tyranitar" is the thing, but rather "we only have Tyranitar". though Baxcalibur definately does need a redesign, i still wouldve liked it to keep the upright posture. or at least lean forward more, less like Godzilla and more like Tyrantrum/Theropods, we definately don't have enough pokemon with that posture.
These are so cool!
I'm so grateful to have found someone with the same opinion as me about Baxcalibur. He just looks too plain and flavourless, and goofy even. Probably my least favourite design because of the missed potential being the greatest in my opinion.
My favorite redesign was baxcalibur as I always wasn’t a fan of it
I will never stop defending Spidops I just think he's cool, but your design is still much better
I like your redesign of spydop, the og with lack of pose in gaming looks awkward. Plus as it standing, its butts looks like its about to poop some log. About backcalibur, i remember someone drew it with old artstyle of pokemon, it looks way better.
You could give your Version of scorvillain a 3rd evo sp it actual has all 3 pepper heads
Edit:Baxcalibur isnt based on godzilla, it's based on a Concavenator, which you used as reference.
My main problem with spidops is that i really wanted tarountula to stay the same body shape in the evo, and even possibly make it bug steel or something lol, also I more than agree with skeledirge, I love the concept and all, but I just hate how overdetailed it is and the fire looks wierd imo, it’s grew on me a bit, but the Sugimori art and I’m game model made me hate it lol I personally don’t mind scovillain, I just think it should get an evo and it kinda looks unfinished y’know?
That's a perfect redesign for Baxcallibur... I was so excited when I saw the middle evolution and then it evolved and.. I was much less excited, LOL!
I LOVE the redesign of baxcallibur I love Dino’s and I do love arctibax a lot, I don’t hate baxcallibur, I just don’t love it like the other pseudos
Pretty sure the 3 stage Pawmi line is meant to represent Darwin evolution. He starts out on all four, then transitions to learning how to walk on two legs, then fully mastering it.
Also more excuse for cute pika clones. Pawmo can stay, just maybe add more neck fluff to make it look like a mid-point between Pawmi and Pawmot.
Hrm. I haven't heard the evolution inspiration for the line.
Gotta love Shakespepper
Shakespepper! That's so fun!
Tarantoola (Tarantula + Spool + Tool)
I genuinely hate new pokemon designs. shit started falling off at gen 6 then 7 onward became a joke with only a few good designs tossed in
I’d say flying water
Please Game Freak hire this boy!
Spidops redesign my favorite
I feel like im the only one who likes Scovillain lol. The Pokemon I have the biggest gripe with in Paldea is Maushold. It just looks too plain to me.
I totally get that.
Maushold and tandemaus are dolls, what did you expect
I like your work, but I have to disagree with you when it comes to Skeledirge. It’s my favourite new mon coming out of Scarlet and Violet. I like how it’s not humanoid at all, it’s head is empty, so when it’s animated, it’s little bird spirit friend can dance around its noggin and snout. It does have some Dia Los Muertos style patterns, but it’s not overtop, as it would be too cluttered if they added any more. I respect your dislike of the design, and it goes to show why Pokemon designs can be so divisive. The reasons someone may find a design bad or unappealing, is the reason why someone else may absolutely love the exact same design.
Well said!
@@froopyart I do like your other redesigns though. Especially Baxcalibur: the original is meant to resemble Godzilla, but that seems so redundant, since we’ve already got Tyranitar.
I love how you turned its body to resemble more of a sword, and also make it look more dinosaur-like too.
Excellent work as always my man. Can’t wait to see more.
Suggestion: Spidops to Weavider and Capsakid to Peppidrama.
Love it! Peppidrama is so cute!!!
You’re welcome Gabe! Glad you like it!
In defense of flamigo(not that I care for it) seel is literally just a seal 💀💀💀
lol, yeah. I think I need to continue with this series and keep redoing underwhelming designs across more generations.
I hate the way Dudunsparce looks. Please give it a redesign.
For Spidops
How about Spidool? (spider and dool)
What's a dool?
@@froopyart like a Dool of thread 🧵
@KSound Kaiju I think it's technically called a spool of thread, but luckily, it still works with the name. Spidool is so good!
@@froopyart oh whoops
I got the names mixed up
I’m tired of all this spidops hate bro deserves more love
Subway wailmer and footlong wailord
I think I'm part of the minority since every pokemon artist wanted to make a baxcalibur redesign and none of them are better than the original for me
The ostrich pokemon palette sucks! It clashes a LOT!!! And has no clear focal point
Briliant
brambleghast and goldengho shoulde be redesigned too
I love your redesigns, more than the originals. I think you should continue.
Personally, I would have related Flamigo to Flamenco. In spanish the dance and the animal are called the same "Flamenco", so I think it would be interesting to fuse them.
Thanks, Gaby! They were super fun to work on. I thought about doing flamenco, but unfortunately there is a gen 7 pokemon Oricorio, that has a form based on flamenco dancing already. But I agree that it fits better on a flamingo.
What about Bombirdier?
I thought about it, but I honestly don't hate it. I may be biased though since I happened to get a shiny in my Violet playthrough.
@@froopyart understandable, but I think it's the same as with Flamigo. It just looks like a normal stork 😅
(pleas x-skus my bad spelling im dyslexic)
for me persanly
the spidops one seems like a good re-disine
the flamego disine cod maby add back in the boxing glufs back in on the feet
like give him more chunky feet and maby make them more red to to look like boxing glufs maby
for bakeskaliber i like the re-disine
i like that you adid some more red to make the red things on his arms look more coherint with there disine
and i love the ider of making there body look more like a sword
capsaykid re-disine looks fine to me
but for the skullvinen one i think just the body dosint sit well with me
take the twist in the legs and make it a bulbis lil plant body and then its fine with me
but bisids all that
love the disine's
Your designs blow the originals out of the water. Out of all the generations, Gen 9 dissapointed me the most in terms of the designs and their potential, so it's great to see that fans can get them right. In other words:
" We were on the verge of greatness, we were THIS close..."
These options certainly feel like something even gamefreak should listen to, especially with the designs for capsakid and scovillain
Oh yeah the scovillain and capsakid redesigns also can be paleon region variations aswell
Espathra is a beautiful lady
Are you gonna cut your hairs into a bob and strut about now?
@@froopyart You know it, baby!
Flipping my ruffles all day!
They are by far an improvement upon the originals. I loathe modern Pokémon designs. They’re made soulless, and prioritize marketability over respect for its origins and consistency, they make them gimmicky, too humanoid, or overly cute for stupid plushies and toys over quality creature design that feel like they belong in nature. Makes me want to make my own Pokémon generation and compete. I know I could come up with better concepts.
You should totally make your own dex of mons! It's a really fun and rewarding challenge.
I would die for these redesigns to be in the game
I never really understood Spidop's design, especially in comparison to its pre-evo. Your design is so much cooler! And it makes the inspiration more transparent while simultaneously being more creative with it (in my opinion). The pose you chose is just brilliant, and I love the tripod/sewing needle arms. As for the name, someone else suggested Spoolder and I just freaking love that.
P.S. Love your other redesigns too. I never even picked up on the comic/dramatic duality in Scovillain's original design lol. Hard disagree on Espathra though. What color palette would you have preferred on it? I think its current color palette gives it both psychedelic but also kinda Luxor Egyptian temple vibes?
Yeah, I dunno about the colors. Its starting to win me over, but something about the purple and yellow together doesn't do it for me. Maybe they are just too pastel?
call it sitisn
The bascalibur redesign could be a paleon region variant that is more primitive in body plan and more of a good parent like t rex
My opinion about your redesigns:
1-Any design it's better than Flamigo design,you did pretty cool and the inspiration it's pretty cool,one of my favorites
2-Spidops:This is one of my favorites too,but how it will be capable to move?
3-Capsakid Line: Nah,i prefer original capsakid,i like more his personality,but his evolution...,it's really hard to decide because both are good,i think yours looks better
4-Skeledirge and Espatra:I know you didn't redesign this,but you mentionated it(and i wanted to give my opinion)are Pokémon that don't need a redesign and are already super good designs
5-Baxcalibur:My boi baxcalibur got criticized hard 😢,i think the idea of other Godzilla Pokémon still good and it has a good design but it's only my opinion
Gamefreak spidops looks more like scp96 then a pokemon, the redesign is so much better
Your Scovillain is so much better than the original in my opinion, as it gives it the personality that the original really lacks, keep up the good work!
Thanks!
Gen 9 is so downgrade by designs. A lot of awful-looking pokemon. I found it before game was released, and i still think in this way
I think backskallober is the original godzilla, so maybe you could make a king Kong pokemon
I really don't like the Scovillian redesign. I might be one of the only people who like the ugly monster plant lol. I am sorry but the weird noodle torso you made just looks wrong. I do kind of like the new heads.
Baxcalibur is really cool though I know Pokemon Dinosaur man would make a great Pokemon Dinosaur. I love the new head and tail you made. As a ride or Die Godzilla Stan I do like this new version more maybe if you put your versions head and limbs on the originals pose we would have a perfect Pokemon.
Your version of the flamingo and Spiderops are fantastic.
Removing Pawmo from the evolutionary line would ruin the concept of Pawmot because the lure of how it evolves wouldn’t make sense
I think it could still evolve from walking together, it would just be a 2 stage.
All his designs are worse than the originals
Lol. Okay, buddy.
It's been very interesting seeing all the different takes artists have had at redesigning Paldean mon, and a little funny how its almost always these handful. That being said I think these redesigns are really good!
I love how different Flamigo feels with some minor changes and a different pose, tho personally I wish Game Freak leaned into a dance angle with it. The Shakespearean influences in the Scovillain line is much needed, and a perfect addition that the original lacked. I personally like it more than the usual "Turn it into a Pepper Dragon" idea I tend to see people throw around. I love the changes to Spidops, tho I seemed to be in the minority of people that wished it leaned into the "Spy-Ops" angle of its name lol. Lastly, I'm so glad to see a Concavenator Baxcalibur, and I love the belly sail. I kinda like the original sail(?)/plate thing of Baxcalibur but the implementation of yours is so much better that I don't mind. Very excited to see the next video!
Oh yeah, I should have done a spy ops design. I don't love intelleon, so a better spy would be nice to see.
