There are also the three different breeds of Paldean Tauros! I personally adore the concept of regional forms, I'm very excited that they are adding more varied forms like Bloodmoon Ursaluna and Paldean Tauros (not to mention convergent Pokémon!), but I would still love love love to see Pokémon variations based on parentage come into play. That's something that would actually get me to breed Pokémon again!
True! And same, as someone who doesn't do competitive breeding hasn't been something I'm interested in so it would be nice if they added something to make it worth it and more fun!
This was a fun discussion piece about how the fans made different forms of Pokémon before regional forms were officially introduced. I was around back then, but admittedly didn't look at too much fanart, as I was making my own (all lost to time on pieces of notebook paper lol). I appreciate getting to see some of these again, and yeah it sucks not being able to find the original artists and credit them properly.
This is such a fun informed video! I remember way before Alola seeing lots of Crossbreed variants of various pokémon that were interesting concepts but Regional Forms as Gamefreak did feel even more creative a twist(even if not all of them are as appealing lol)
I remember seeing the first alolan forms and being like "why would you waste it on diglett with 3 hairs!!! Haven't you seen the amazing fanart!!!!!" since back then we didn't know if it was a 1 region gimmick that we'd never see again or not. Sure glad they kept it around, it's one of the most fun kinds of pokemon we get now!
i do remember looking at grass type variations over devian art just for fun , its kind of wild to think that game freak actually might have noticed the trend and use it for themselves, tho it's a awesome and that way we can get more variation over the pokedex without having to enlarge the number over the 1000 we already have. surely we can expect more new forms like "blood moon" in future games or even on remakes if they decide to introduce newer pokemon in kanto or such
Honestly... maybe??? lol there's nothing stopping them from doing it! Or they could do it like mega latios + latias and give them almost identical mega forms
I didn't select anything, I guess it was auto-selected because I said the phrase "this is a pokemon channel" in the video lmao UPDATE: I'm apparently not even allowed to change the game in settings, because there is no game selected at all! what a weird feature for youtube to add 💀
@@EliteTrainerLin UA-cam is wild sometimes also like Pokémon channel is barely a game. 😅 If you want to change it, set the topic to gaming then you should be able to pick a game. 👍
Shiny variants would be such a cool gimmick, better than "square shinies"
Yeah I don't think anyone actually cared about the square shinies lol

Making your own art instead is definitely valid!

Just discovering this channel, and I must say, your video intro slaps! Neat video, interesting to think of the differences!
Thank you, I'm pretty proud of my intros! 💕
Now that megas are back do you think we're going to get mega regional variants? hahahaha
That's too much, XD
Honestly... maybe??? lol there's nothing stopping them from doing it! Or they could do it like mega latios + latias and give them almost identical mega forms
I would kill for new shiny forms
Me too!!! Especially for the bad ones, but even for the good ones it would be cool to have other options!
GALARIAN MEOWTH HYPE
ALL HAIL THE BEST CAT
What about What about convergence, pokemon, or regional fake as they are also called
Perhaps I'll make another video about them... 😎
Lol, why did you select Pokemon Channel instead of Scarlet and Violet as the game for this video?
