Hey so i dont know if you're aware, but Better Help is going through some major legal stuff, as they gave out patient information to businesses.

Thanks for having me on! This was a lot of fun!

“Kanto has no beaches” same bud same 😔

I like the idea of Sandaconda becoming a Water type because actual anacondas are great at swimming, & out of my favorite design is the Crabrawler

I guess you could Kanto has No beaches?

6:22 "Two SUDO legendaries" (Shows the box legends) Looks like the editor messed up here (He was of course actually referring to the Salamance and Metagross lines)

Wow…. I had no idea he had a divorce Sorry to hear that man, glad to know you’re doing better!❤

"The singular starfish line we have" Mareanie and Toxipex: "Am I a joke to you?!"

I personally like the look of your regional variants of Gothorita & Gothitelle, which I never thought I would ever say/type out. I've never liked the look of the Gothita line, so you nailed this. Given their inspiration, they would definitely need the Dancer ability. The Rock/Ghost variants of Sandygast and Palossand are clever. I also love your take on a Water-type snake Pokémon with Hoennian Sandaconda. I love your Fire/Dark-type variant of Crabrawler and the regional evolution Crabroiler. I love what you did with Unovan Riolu & Lucario. The coloration as a whole, the typing, the ice replacing the metal, the inspiration, as well as the gray hair being reminiscent of Hisuian Zorua & Zoroark(at least to me). The Fire/Psychic variants of Staryu and Starmie looks good.

I’m dissapointed to see you have BetterHelp as a sponsor. They did track and reveal people’s data as well as having many problems with their therapists.

Gotta admit, when you said something along the the lines of a canine of the underworld, I was kinda thinking you would make Unovan Houndour and Houndoom. But Unovan Riolu and Lucario are awesome too!

*The collab we didn't know we needed...*

4:44 You know whats funny. An_artist_astray already made a similar gathitele and gothita regional variant. Exept one is chinese and this is Japanese. I just find it funny how the same artist made 2 different regional varients of the same pokemon with a similar look

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'M HEARING ABOUT A REALLY FUN RU-vidR(my favorite fakemon creator GETTING A DIVORCE AND BEING A SINGE DAD(tbh she or he's missing out fr lol)

Unovan Lucario & Riolu are really cool! Ice-Ghost has only been used once, and that pokemon is one of my favourites! It would be fun to see this Lucario!

THIS IS NOT HOW I WANTED TO KNOW URE A SINGLE PARENTTT 😭😭😭😭😭😭. FROM A SPONSOR ADSDD!?!???

Ah, lovely to see some new videos coming out, Brandon. But just out of curiosity, how are you coming along with the Devhar region storyline?

The Sandyghast… he was everything… I’m gonna call him Stonyghast!

Hoennian fire/ground Gigalith line? Inspired on the desert and mt. Chimney on route 111 and 112, could be a Pure fire and pure ground type, like they adapted to both desert and the mt chimney or just a Fire and sand type that can be found on both areas

5:15 i think them learning petal dance should be the condition to evolve, it would be very fitting.

You should make a fan region with only regional forms you create with like regional starters, regional legendaries, regional megas, and everything regional it’d be very cool

Fantastic video so well thought out and executed and the art was so clean really top tier stuff. I would love to see more, maybe with the shiny versions too!

15:42 love to see your old ideas return For those who dosent know: at one of the streams Brandon said that he had idea for Legends game in Kalos and regional Staryu was for that project

I love these kinds of videos so much!you two did a great job!

13:38 "a canine [guard] of the underworld" Sounds to me more like crossing the Pacific ocean and looking at houndoom! Easy transition to bony Timberwolf!

Unovan Riolu and Lucario are definitely something I’ll use in my fanfics I’ll never publish lol. As a Riolu and Lucario enjoyer I adore this!

I love stuff like this. I daydream of the day we could get a Kanto reboot instead of a remake and have, like here, come up with my own Kantonian forms as well. The ones I'm most excited about is a pure Fairy Ralts and Fairy/Dark Kirlia and Gardevoir that adapt to living in Mt. Moon because their kind spirits leads to them wanting to guid people through Mt. Moon (the dark type purely being for moon related purposes). Don't know quite what to do with Gallade tho.... maybe Fairy/Fighting or Fairy/Steel? (like in becoming a knight maybe.....)

You’ve inspired me to make my own fakemon region!! Thank you 💖

The gothitelle line is simply gorgeous.

Gimme Kalosian Staryu/Starmie. Such great designs.

Love your collaboration vids! So cool!

THE COLAB WE NEEDED

To a degree we had some of it in early games, with the different Arbok patterns. Or at least the patterns on the sprite work look different to me

I'm loving this collab.

Pragmagik: no beaches in kanto Sevii islands: am i a joke to you?

I love the crabrawler evo line so cool.

I would love to see you do another regional form video but have it be ‘What if spin off regions had regional forms?’ So like Pokémon that would have regional forms from Orre (Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness), Ransei (Pokémon Conquest), one of the regions from the Pokémon Ranger games, or the region from Pokken. ^^ I think it’d be cool

Johtonian Gothorita and Gothitelle are so beautiful, I would love to have them in my team ❤❤

I am not a Crabominable fan nor a crab fan in general but Crabroiler's design is SO GOOD! Takes the Pokemon it's based on from a 1/10 to a solid 8/10 for me!

What an AMAZING video. Not a single miss, in my opnion ❤

I've always liked this concept

as someone who's mascot OC is a white riolu that's died several times (long lore not even friends barely know) I LOVE the unovan riolu/lucario lines (also mirrors their unovan counterparts in my eyes, Zorua, who became ghost/normal lol)

An unexpected collab but a welcomed one.

Omg love them so much

Would love to see this topic built on more

9:57 YES! CARCINIZATION ME BOYS!

I remember making making a fanmade regional Alola varient for the entire Rults line based on hula dancers and fire dancers, even made 2 forms based on their gender. The females are the Hula dancers with the Grass/Fairy and the males are the fire dancers with the Fire/Fighting type.

I'm genuinely surprised that we didn't get a geisha inspired 'mon in Johto. Iirc, Ecruteak city is based on Kyoto and the largest geisha district, Gion, is in Kyoto. It would have made so much sense.

Starmie and staryu looked so amazing!

I love that two of my favorite poketubers finally did a collab

the crabrawler line needed the fire tile since they are based on yeti crabs who reside near the volcanoes of the ocean

Interesting concept for Sinnohan Crabrawler, although I see it starting off as mono dark-type, and it gains the fire-type upon evolution. Speaking of which, Sinnohan Crabrawler will evolve into Crabroiler by leveling up at Stark Mountain or by fire stone post gen 4.

Technically, Sinnoh was the first region to give us something close to regional forms with the Shellos line since they had forms dependent on which side of the region you found them in. And yet Game Freak did nothing with that until Alola when they finally explored the idea of Pokemon that adapted to their surroundings to the point where it altered their very typing. I’m really hoping future remakes of past regions fixes that problem since regional forms (and the later inclusion of exclusive evolutions) was one of their best and most creative ideas for the core games.

Seeing Magiks silly cartoon png next to hoops realistic png is goofy to me lol

I like the Coral Snake Sandaconda, very pretty!

All of these are so much YES PLEASE

Fun fact: Zen mode Darmanitan-Galar is STILL one of the few (if not the only) official pokemon that doesnt have official artwork

Crabrawler evolution looks like Kanki evolution from LL Really cool!

The collab we never knew we needed

I love your new avatar look. Its super fun which I admire

I really like all of these, especially the Pallosand.

Omg starmi has the reclaimer logo on its eye from halo like 343 guilty spark hahaha i love it

isnt Exeggutor technically the pokemon that adapted to an area without beaches in kanto?

Hope you're having a good day

Loving the new look on my boy Lucario.

You should do mega evolutions for these regional forms, not existing regional forms, but these ones just to be clear

14:47 I legitimately said "Strange House! Strange House!" in response to this

No body will talk about how he fitted the" distracted man meme" in thumbnail

One thing that I find interesting is that Eevee isn’t catchable in the wild until Black 2 and White 2, only ever gifted So prior to Let’s Go I did have a thought that was “what if Eevee originated from a different region and we got Kantonian Eevee that was Ground type (chinchilla inspired design), able to evolve into the remaining eeveelutions”

If they revisit Johto or Unova like some have predicted they absolutely need to implement regional forms

2:19 Oh my GOOOOD!!!

Great Video! One I will be hoping for until we get the poison/ice typing will be regional forms for Nidoking and Nidoqueen. I think giving them a viking feel, with ice armor and longer hair could really give the unused type good representation.

11:44 technically Crabominable was based on a newer trench crustacean called the Yeti crab and making it evolve on the mountain gave it that Abominable touch. So if anything sinnoh's crabrawler should be a spider crab with Ushi-oni highlights.

On the subject of the Gothita line though, I think it would be neat to see them get regional forms or possibly even a brand new male only alternate evolution for Gothorita that pull inspiration from men's Gothic fashion.

When I saw the silhouette of the johto regional variants I thought they were going to be kirlia and gardevoir because of the bony shape

Hey, I got an idea for you. Since the xy starter (I think, I am not sure) are inspired by dnd class, why not a pokemon for every dnd class ?

U gotta make a second version of this

I love his new thumbnails

Honestly, the different belly patterns of the early Arbok sprites should make for actual regional forms

I think Shinnoh is the only region other than Alolah, Galar, and Paldea to have regional forms. Sure we didn't see this in the gen 4 remasters, but in future Let's go Shinoh games we'll definitely see them.

13:39 Someone tell me I wasn’t the only one thinking Houndoom

Love the new avatar!

You should make an entire video dedicated to unova regional forms of pokemon from the first 4 gens that appeared in Unova at the end of BW & adapted over time

The Kalosian Staryu and Starmie also work as inadvertent references to France's leading source of energy being nuclear power. Maybe their shinies could be blue and green to represent that!

I know the every type of goomy was a year ago, buuuuut can you make a every type of sligoo and goodra?? I love your videos.

BDSP and Let’s Go heavily suffered in my opinion for not introducing new regional variants. Also BDSP not having ANY character redesigns. 😭

Hot take Bdsp is misunderstood it may not have had platinum content but it did add it’s own new stuff like expanded underground, updated qol, modern type chart, modern movepool, ramanas park etc and it’s got wholesome vibes Also Ilca is more experienced now It was loved by the mainstream casual audience The more hardcore fans may not have liked it but they weren’t the target audience The game was designed to be an approachable game for beginner players so they had to make it look as cute and as welcoming as possible hence the chibi appearance

I'm kinda late, but kanto does have a beach south of fuchsia and in a place literally called treasure beach

"a canine [guard] of the underworld" TELL ME WHY I WAS EXPECTING HOUNDOOM 😭

By technicalities crawdaunt is a regonal form but just not exclusive to one regon because we know that corphish comes from another region making crawdaunt possibly a exeggcutor situation where crawdaunt might not be its original evolution line

There are precisely two beaches in Kanto if you don't count the Sevii Islands, and those are at Cinnabar Island and Fuschia City.

My one thing about Crabroiler is that one of the things I like about Crabominable is its stature. Crabroiler doesn't evoke that same stature to me; It kinda just looks like Crabrawler with even more spikes

I wish my dad came back so i could show him this video

your new avatar looks very cute❤

The face of the regional Crabrawler reminds me of a skull adding more reference to its dark typing.

Wait...d Didn't they turn the lavender tower into a radio tower? Would the sandygast line still be valid or am I miss remembering something?

This is such a perfect idea and one I wish The Pokemon Company would allow because it just makes sense. They already retconned a lot of Pokemon into Fairy-Types when it was introduced so why not this? (It's like them refusing to accept the mistake they made with Lugia's typing)

This was something I wish the Sinnoh remakes did, having Sinnohan variants of various Pokemon if only to give it better type diversity. But alas, they didn't have any time and had to stay "faithful" to a fault. At the very least they had the Grand Underground. Still, they could've had Platinum's expanded Pokedex. I myself had the idea of Water/Ground variants for the Sandile line that live in the swamp areas along with an Electric/Ice variant of the Electrike line that gained the Ice typing as to survive the harsher climates of Sinnoh. Now... I had the idea of Sinnohan variants of Rowlet, Cyndaquil, and Oshawott that'd evolve into Hisuian Decidueye, Typhlosion, and Samurott due to them having traces of those forms. Possibly as part of the Grand Underground alongside the other Hisuian variants.

Kanto has like one or two beaches. If u count the border between land and ocean even without sand as a beach
