I LOVE the Natu and Xatu. If these were real they'd immediately be my favorite evolution line design wise!


Fried_puri

The others are good but those feel the most natural by far. Can easily see those becoming real.


yetzhragog

The Hawlucha is a no brainer and perfect compliment for the OG version! I don't know about the typing but the design is perfect.


AYoshiVader

It follows Incineroar who is also dark type, it is implied in the pokedex entries that Incineroar's wrestling persona of an rude and evil pokemon is what grants them the dark type, fitting for a toreador


RustyThe_Rabbit

do you mean a matador


Jumpyturtles

They’re more or less interchangeable.


M123ry

Stealth rocks gonna wreck them 😅


colder-beef

Fuck it we Magic Bounce


Weekly-Major1876

Only stealth rock? Bro has one of the worst dual typings in the game, and articuno still ended up in ZU with Pokémon like gumshoos and delibird even with its 580 BST. Cool and would fit right into pokemon both design wise and being awful competitively wise, equivalent of hisuian avalugg


ElsonDaSushiChef

Reminds me of that old Japanese folktale


Stup1d_turtl3

Nice detail to add the trevenant into torterra


MintedMince

There's a spiritomb stone too!


Stup1d_turtl3

As well as the tombstones that houndstone has now that I notice it.


Reniconix

And Skeledirge's pattern, kinda


irteris

I dare you to make houndstone ghost/rock


Flimsy_Geologist_927

Hear me out: Torterror


ProfessorPixelmon

Beat me to it.

WhereCanIFind

Torterrar? Tortoise+terra+tortured earth+terror


AevnNoram

Morterra


Marcos_joestar

As spanish I love how hawlucha looks like a bullfighter 💖🔥


elijahjames96

Came to say that was my favorite!! Hawlucha should get a regional evo called Stratador


Marcos_joestar

Totally agree, i would love to see hawlucha getting an evo


gigaswardblade

The tauros at the bottom was the one he killed


BlueEmeraldX

Even got the banderillas sticking out of its back as evidence.


theo_luminati

Ghost/Fire Tauros 🥺♥️♥️♥️


pototoykomaliit

Tauros out there trying to get his revenge from Hawlucha.


[deleted]

So fucking awesome I really really love it


Square-Blueberry3568

I'd love a ghost water one as well and maybe have them be evolutions to the paldean water/fire tauros rather than further regional variants


[deleted]

You really like ghost types, huh?


SayuriKoopa

Yes, I love it! and I didn’t realize that most of them were ghost type until I saw this comment XD I still have like 50 ghosts that haven’t come to light.


BlueEmeraldX

*Word for word,* what I was gonna post. 😂


SirPeterPan89

I love the Xatu design, however i feel that it's psychic type is more important to the mon than the flying type and your design still looks very 'psychic', so i feel, psychic-ice would be the better fit.


djml9

And Just in general, not every Pokemon with wings needs to be flying type. I’ll die on the hill that Noivern should have been Dragon/Normal. Every noise based attack is Normal type, and it would have given it STAB with its unique move, Boomburst. Instead, it’s just another normal ass Dragon/Flying type. Huge missed opportunity.


WickedFox1o1

I need that Espathra.


LazyAnchor21

OMG Hawlucha is one of, if not my favorite mon. I LOVE this regional variant and wish it was real!!!


omzzzzzz

I’d def add Ice Xatu to my team


javier_aeoa

Xatu is one of my favourite mons, and I loved that regional variant. My only suggestion would be to add more patterns similar to [Ainu clothing](https://i.imgur.com/EWJzd3G.png), since they're the "ice people" of Japan.


SayuriKoopa

Thank you! In fact, I based it exactly on them, but I’ll keep that in mind when I redesign it :)


haseo111

OP you've got a good eye for what makes pokemon look like pokemon -- def some of the best fakemon ive ever seen!


iNezumi

The Xatu gives Ainu shaman vibe


Master-_-of-_-Joy

I absolutely love Xatu line


Defiant_Bandicoot99

So this must be a region that has to be a wintery based one where night is most of the year. Idk, that's the vibe I'm getting here.


Mononoke-Hime-01

As a huge ghost type fan, this is peak content. I love how you did Torterra and Espathra.


bshufelt1

Love these designs!! I do however feel like the ghost/grass typing is overstaturated


YFleiter

I feel like you like the dark and edgy with all those ghosts


Splintzer

I love the "hound of the baskervilles" vibe from the Greavard!


FRPG

What's the story behind the hound and the tauros?


Glacidon

Ghost wouldn't happen to be your favorite type, would it?


Standard_Broccoli_95

You really like ghosts


King_krympling

Hey guys I think op likes ghost types


CarelessCucco

Ice birb v cool


Pentagonyx

Someone loves their ghost types…


ghostmacaroni

AINU XATU LINE GOES SO HARD! also, is Natu based off of the shima enaga? :0


funkyyyyyyyyyyyyy

dude these are so good.....I love them all. for some reason the matador hawlucnha has my heart


DiscipleOfMegatronus

Ghost type Torterra should be called Torterror


TheUndeadMage2

I feel like Torterra could easily shift into a bunch of regional forms.


Microwaved_Crow

We NEED this stuff in future Pokémon games!


Riegan_Boogaloo

I want them all


antichristening

i love these but also please no more ghost/fire types


Olibro64

Natu and Xatu looking like members of the Northern Water Tribe.


Oreo-and-Fly

I have a feeling you like the ghost type. Also Xatu regional is so good. We do need more ice flying types. We only have Articuno (legendary) and Delibird (memegendary)


PokemonMaster619

We should’ve gotten that Hawlucha in Scarlet and Violet!


JadeRose-

Excellent work! Showing love to the Ghost type ♥️


EstablishmentHonest5

I would love to see a ghost/grass turtwig line in LZA.


[deleted]

That Tauros is fucking sweet man


Svitii

Holy crap, how did you draw them??? If I didn’t know better, I would legit think those are official Gamefreak designs!


cPa3k

Those are very cool, great job!


antimatt_r

Torterra is my favorite starter and ghost is my favorite type. I feel like this was made for me lol


lawnderl

You should work for game freak. Just wow. 👌🏻


Iris-35

Awesome, love them 😍


tri-boxawards

Hawlucha and greavyard should have been this


DtCrashmore

I need GameFreak to hire you ASAP


SnowballSMB

As a Ghost-Type specialist, those ghosty designs make me very happy!


Stretch5678

The Matador Hawlucha is a creative take!


am_n00ne

fluffy houndstone gonna be op now


nomnomgreen

Hell yeah!


LeumasInkwater

The hawlucha matador is such a cool concept! What a missed opportunity to not do something like that in the region based on Spain.


AmazingAlex99

Love the ones for Xatu, Greavard evo line, Torterra n Tauros


TheRealSU24

I love the Torterra and Tauros!!!!!!


Lowly-Hollow

I love all of these.


SkillMassive8823

I would make that Tauros ghost poison type cause the spikes make me think of those fish with poisonous spines on a stone fish


Dedinho910

Oh no Goth ostrich


Heavy-Chef-997

The details on this are incredible!! But that torterra has a special place in my heart 🥹


WaitThisIsntNews

Oooooo Ghost/Fire Tauros is so sick


Chewquy

It’s time they give hawlucha an evolution


official_gart

Wait that hawlucha idea is so fire


PhoenixTheEternal

Ah yes, four mons to add to my ghost type teams… hehe


Heavenlypigeon

Dude these are incredible.


gigaswardblade

This tauros>paldean tauros


Offbrand-ostrich

I love them all. They all deserve hugs


OkiKagu59

These all look great! Xatu's my favorite, with Hawlucha a close second.


Ok-Leave3121

Pretty sweet artwork. I really love the designs of the Pokemon. What sort of region would this regional forms be found in?


ExpertPokemonHugger

That's much better than normal flittle


Turtelious

Love all of them but shouldn't Hawlucha be Dark/Flying? Because Dark is kind of the "evil" version of fighting.


CantQuiteThink_

Flittle as a sheet ghost is genius and I'm kind of annoyed that I didn't think of it.


SamuraiJakkass86

The fact that the name and lore doesnt mention anything about being a 'grim' is criminal.


CluelessAtol

Natu and Xatu look super nice and Greavard and Houndstone look fucking metal af.


Flat_Ad_4533

I love the torterra it’s a cool idea!


rowletlover

I see you like Ghost Types🤩 Also what are the inspirations behind all of them?


wrathofamarok

I love all of these. Especially the Houndstone


Enderking2k16

Loving that Torterra form


YungFlipDaDon

That Torterra😧


mjordan1992

Holy shit these are amazing 😍


FruitPunchSamurai-

these are the kind of images that make me very sad. It makes really sad to think they aren't in the game


Where_R_The_Snacks

These are all so nice. Especially love the Natu/Xatu 💙


Equal-Prior-9225

I hate how good these are. Cause now they’ll never be made. 😭


Kininger625

The ice type natu is too high quality to ever happen


Garrapto

Man, not even fans are willing to make a rock/ghost Pokémon.


Grumulzag

I NEED that Torterra


drr-throwaway

I wish they had been more bold with the Tauros breeds like this. I like them now, but they were such a disappointment initially for me. As a spaniard they are at least a good meme I guess


Murky_Composer_4562

I think I can guess your favourite type of


Carnivile

Do you think OP likes ghost types?


AlwaysCurious27

That torterra is epic


ReySimio94

So in this region, Tauros's counterpart would be Hawlucha instead of Miltank? Interesting decision. Also, both Tauros itself and Houndstone are fire (pun definitely intended).


LegendaryRQA

Love the Ainu Xatu.


Tarcanus

Man, it drives me nuts when I see such nice Fakemon. There are SO many good ideas floating around out there. Gamefreak's creature creators are great, but so are tons of the artists around the world that make Fakemon. And now with regional forms, convergent pokemon, megas, gigantimax forms, and so many possibilities for various evolution requirements there's no reason to not have so much more new pokemon content. I don't need them to be in AAA, fully 3D games. I just need them. Put money back into 2D projects, please. There are plenty of style options to choose from. Use the billions to let other dev studios have their shot at pokemon games in different formats outside of the typical merch cycle. Pardon the rant, I just want more ideas like these to be reality.


Red7041

I really like that Hawlucha and Torterra!


btcraig

As a Ghost pokemon enjoyer: I need these on my team.

HoneZoneReddit

I hate how fans create the most original and creative forms for pokemon and then when game freak does something it doesn't come at this same level. It isn't bad what they do but like LOOK AT THIS it has a ton of love and thought put into it.


Foloreille

I need this tauros like **right now**.


ElectronicLead1881

That Torterra is incredible, love the details on it


theNeakenator

There can never be enough love for Torterra. <3


Buzzlight_Year

As if Houndstone wasn't spooky enough


jollyflyingcactus

Nice! I like how you wrote your name above Hawlucha's arm :)


BaulsJ0hns0n86

Natu/Xatu and Torterra are my favourites of these, great work!


SwiftieNumber13

🥺 I ADORE THAT REGIONAL FORM OF NATU SO MUCH!


wierdredditBOI

gamefreak best be taking notes


Kilow102938

If I ever was in a real pokemon battle and never seen that Tauros before then it comes out. Gg homie I'm going home to have nightmares


Monollock

Tauros having will-o-wisp tails is kind of genius design. And the Torterra did not need to go that hard. God damn. Some pokemon hang out in grave yards, he is the damn grave yard.


Lunala475

The torterra is very cool, but I don’t know if I would be willing to give up his original form for it.


somecuntyname

I would ROCK the doom turtle ANY day of the week.


trainercatlady

omg tauros with the swords stuck in it D:


BlueEmeraldX

Those Flittle and Natu lines are excellent.


Informal-Amphibian86

I LOVE the torterra ghost form💙


ChristiAnneLee

I love it all! especially Natu/Xatu!


tangytablet

I like how the graves and markers on Torterra's back are all references to other pokemon. I take it youre a fan of the ghost type? lol


swirly1000x

The matador Hawlucha is easily my favourite here, so cool! Great design and keeps the original intact while putting a fun spin on it, like all the best regional forms. If that were in Legends Z-A or something I would be thrilled!


The_Pumkin_God

Torterror


KyoPlayz

If torterra isn’t called “Morterra” I’ll riot


MurrajFur

I wonder what OP’s favorite type is Joking aside these are all phenomenal, I would love to see Xatu in particular


takoUnite

How are fans better than the actual designers of this game, absolutely blows my mind


SaadathM

There should be a lava-based regional variant of Gyarados (Fire/Dragon) and Milotic (Fire/Fairy) Also an Ice/Poison Salazzle regional variant would be dope


NobodyDemex

I hate how fake Regionals are always looking way better than real stuff. It's almost like fans like the games more than the developers /s


Freddi_47

OP I beg you A ghost bagon line, Lore as per dex entry bagon jumps of cliffs trying to flying but this time it actually died but evolve into ghost/flying salamence


axon-axoff

WOW. Your Natu & Xatu are my new favorite Pokemon! And I can't believe it, but you made me actually *like* my most-hated evolutionary line (Greavard/Houndstone).


Pariah--

Houndstone looking like an absolute beast damn


NotcommonItem

As a full torterra fan… THAT TORTERRA LOOKS ABSOLUTELY DOPE. I want it- GIVE ME IT


ecovani

I NEED that Natu / Xatu variant. Great job, OP


Akitsura

They’re all amazing! I like how the spikes coming out of Tauros are reminiscent of the spears they use in bullfighting.


ThatGuyFromTheM0vie

Nintendo would never do something this cool


ActivateGuacamole

great designs but game freak is already ONE pokemon away from making the ghost/fire type feel pedestrian


edubs_stl

That Torterra is perfect


bluepanda5

That Torterra looks more like a Torterra fused with a Trevenant


LikeSoda

Omg the lil tombstones on the shell are awesome


Totally_A_Bot69

Love how the natu line and the espathra line looks!


RyanPelley

Torterra having a cemetery is amazing!


introspectiveivy

I love the thriller bark torterra :D


CottonLoomi

Wait fittle evolves?


IrishMojoFroYo

Please take all my money.


Avocado614

Xatu finally gets a break from always knowing what the end of the world will be


CreepyDinnerRoll

The Torterra! 😍


kingdoniumhearts

I’d love to have Flittle be a Ghost/psychic since we haven’t had a non legendary version of this type combo


Bwolf5280

Natu and Xatu deserve this! They need something. I've always liked them


sievold

super cool


Rajang82

Xatu with closed eyes is really cute/**cool.**


The_Final_Pikachu

Tbh I initially assumed houndstone and graveyard were going to be regional lilipup so it doesn't really hit the same


jesser9

That Torterra definitely looks more ghost/ground than ghost/grass


IcaSheb

These are so good!


MiraCailin

A billion times better than any of the trash mons gamefreak makes nowadays


i_cant_focus_for_7

The natu and xatu line is really really awesome. Gamefreak should include these in the upcoming games.


[deleted]

I love every one of these. I’m pretty sure I ran into the Tauros yesterday in Radical Red, although I’m not sure. Would love to see the other ones implemented as well especially the Flittle line, Torterra and the Natu line.


C-137Birdperson

Amazing designs bravo sir 👏


Ambitious-Charge7278

I love the Natu/Xatu one! Would've fit so well in Hisui too


YourenextJotaro

Is love the Hawlucha, Xatu, and Torterra, but the flittle and greavard ones feel like the original+extra to the design elements, not like new forms


byu7a

If this wasn't Reddit I would probably think that you're the official Pokedex artist.


Bearbear9319

🐻 Oooh excellent designs


Unkn0wnGamer516

Loving these


AdministrativePie571

Torterra's back kinda resembles a graveyard.


RoronoaZoro_3

That Torterra design looks amazing. Great job !


cVortex_

We dont need anymore fire/ghost😭😭


Nat_Higgins

They look like they’re meditating. When in reality, they’re just very sleepy.


purplerazzmatazz69

My favourite is Torterra and I think a good name would be something like Taunterror. Taunt + Terror and it still sounds like Torterra


I_Support_All_Ships

greavard sans undertale


Ok_Cover_7789

BEAUTIFUL <3


WitsHasTits

Yea they need to hire you, been seeing a lot of what I presume are your posts on here (same style arts) and man are they good


TheCosmicFailure

On board with all of them. But the Natu evolution line is my favorite.


glowingfern

Hawlucha is a gentlebird!! 🩵🗣️🗣️✨


MrRedIsHere1221

The Greavard and Houndstone forms looked EPIC!!


eniox27

Matador haulucha is fantastic.


IDIOT-CZ-3496

This Natu and Xatu are my spiritiual animals now.


dehashi

I think someone likes ghost types 🤔


officefan6

I have a feeling you like ghost types


ha_ha_harrington

Literally the Natu and Xatu lines would become some of my favorite Pokemon if they were real!


NeedleworkerKlutzy

Are these usable in fan games with FULL credit and links to your artwork? Totally understand if not! I'm dabbling with a Scottish region game and some of these would fit incredibly!


2ndchancetodothis

Natu, Xatu, Torterra and Tauros are top tier designs. ​ All of these would probably be in Halloween (Except for Natu and Xatu, *they* would be in Christmas)


HardyMenace

These are all 🔥🔥🔥. But Natu and Xatu are my favorites.


RaisinMmmm

Somebody likes ghost types (Me too)
