What can I say? I have a special talent 😂

Yeah pretty funny

Innit I was thinking this. I hate it when people from western countries (which I also am too) make fakemon regions based on HUGE areas. The Middle East is massive and very diverse. There’s SO MUCH you could do for each country but he’s decided to make a region based on all of it and then proceeds to place anything ‘exotic’ into it. Smh I know a region doesn’t have to have solely Pokémon inspired from that place (eg pancham in kalos) but my god at least make a better effort haha

pakistan is NOT a middle eastern country, despite all the wishes of its native south asian population. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

It is. It also raises mountains with it's trunk, so fun fact.

👀

It isn’t finished yet But I’d love to see it when it’s done

​@@PragMagik I actually do consulting work for history/archeology channels on videos on Mesoamerican (aztec, maya, etc) stuff. I quite like the Axolotl and Sun Stone lines they have: They did a good job capturing the style of monumental aztec sculptures with the former (may sound like a simple thing to do, but it's a pretty specific aeshetic and most people don't bother to try to capture Mesoamerican art motifs well) and it being water/fire is a nice (albiet accidental, they didn't know this) allusion to how water and fire being paired together in Aztec art is a metaphor for warfare. For the latter, the design is nice, but it being ground rather then rock is (again, albiet accidentally) fitting since they based the design on the "ollin" glyph in the middle of the sun stone, and the Ollin glyph primarily is associated with shaking movements, like in earthquakes (which is why it's on the actual Aztec Sun Stone monument: The monument has, among other things, glyphs representing eachhow the world ended in each age in the Aztec creation myth, and the current age is supposed to end in a giant earthquake) As I said, though, some of those references in the designs are accidental: I haven't seen anybody do a Mexico/Mesoamerican Fan region that REALLY has done a ton of research into Prehispanic and Mesoamerican history. I've helped with a notable fangame, but I only joined after their pokedex was finalized so I there was only so much I could do. I'd REALLY love to partner with artists to do a region myself and help, but so far I haven't been able to make that happen.

@@MajoraZ Mudkip is based on the Axolotl

I mean… based on the fact I state it… like a few times, and he is credited in the description… I am pretty sure they do.

Thank YOU for watching!

😂 wish others would realize when it was uploaded like you did.

D.O.A. 😂😂

I have ideas... 👀

Finizen and Palafin

Also, the importance of fire in Jewish holidays is a perfect way to finally get in Fire/Fairy, in the form of a Chandelure variant/convergent based on the Menorah. Litwick is now based on a candlestick, while the middle evolution, Shabburnat, is now two candlesticks based on Shabbat candles. The final evolution, Faerorah, is based on the holy fixture of the temple, all seven candles burning brightly.
