im gonna be honest here and say i think that Cinderace could have been much cooler as a rock type, with the hard football pads and helmet making for a compelling reason to give this cinerace a rocky armor, and since its also now based on a brown coated rabbit, it even has the colors to match in my opinion, and i guess if i had to change one thing design wise from yours to portray that, it'd be to make the padding it has less like fur and more like rocks, as well as dusting it up some. this is just my constructive critism on it being a fighting type with nice earthy rock colors, you guys did a great job and deserve worlds of respect
These are good too! Cinderace is my personal favorite already, but I wouldn't mind this regional form if it happened. Love the outlaw theme of Inteleon as I'm a big fan of cowboys myself being a Texan and all that! I think Sprigatito should have become a sabre tooth tiger in its final stage, so you could understand how I felt after Meowscarada's announcement and release to the public. And have you seen the way the legs look? I'd downgrade on the hips and thighs as they make me a bit uncomfortable when looking at that area, it feels wrong for a starter such as this one.
Agreed , Primarina is not my favourite, rather quaquaval is , But Primarina is still one of my favourites! Its design is quite good , And its typing as the first fairy starter is perfect
It did seem like a partial missed opportunity for the Galar starter trio on not being dual types when fully evolved since Rillaboom could’ve been made a grass/fighting type, while Inteleon and Cinderace received a typing to match their respective designs.
I would've gone with Water/Steel for the Western inspired Inteleon to represent both the revolvers cowboys are usually depicter with and one of the biggest reasons for the existence of cowboys being the Gold Rush in the old west. Another reason I would go with that typing is because the existence of Greninja and Hisuian Samurott would make this version of Inteleon push the number of Water/Dark type combination starters to the same number as Fire/Fighting for starters.
I think that's interesting, however I also think that either Ghost or Fighting could've worked here. -Ghost would let it be supe-effective against itself, letting Inteleon actually duel in game. The faster one gets the one shot. -Fighting would be my other recommendation to represent the rugged and harshness of the western landscape and the scrappy nature of cowboys
So what’s the type breakdown for the regional starters? I’m seeing lots of Psychic, Ghost, Fairy, Dark, and Fighting over this series. Poison, Steel, and Electric are so far the most unusual.
I saw the Cinderace design and immediately thought about rugby. Then after what you said about the "golden opportunity" of the regional variant I thought of a potential Australia region. The weirdest thing about this is I'm an American. The wild west Intellion design tickled me right, but I didn't see the American football avenue of Cinderace.
I completely agree. I also love Primarina, and this variant is also remarkable. Your inspiration of the banshee and its powers was a stroke of genius, and the signature move still goes well with its sound-based attacks.
I've always thought that, if Primarina would get a regional form, it would be a secondary type like in the video. Unlike your banshee inspiration however, I've I think that it would fit perfectly in a future Germany based region. The inspiration here would have been the Tale of Lorelei, a woman sitting on a rock (also named Lorelei) in the Rhine river who leads men to their death by sailing into the rock because she grieved the loss of her lover (in some tales he died and in others he cheated on and left her).
Wow!🤯 Regional Evolution of Meowscarada is dope, became Grass/Psychic.Choosing Meowscarada! Regional Form Inteleon look pretty wicked with Western Theme.
Cinderace would have been better as Fire/Steel or Fire/Ground, making it more defensive like a defensive lineman (or making a reference to gridiron or the helmets/goals with the steel typing). The design is fine but it was literally too easy, and fire/fighting is overused for starters. Intelleon's design is... the head looks weird. Great idea, but you could have gone sheriff instead of outlaw though that's a personal idea. The design is just a tad weird with the head and collar. Meowscarada looks very witchy and I kinda like it, though the og design never gave me anything but a magician feel, so the "nobel" aspect is kind of weird. Primarina... great concept but the design just looks too... KISS? It's fine but doesn't look fitting to a banshee to me. They're all great ideas though some of the execution was a bit off, IMO. You guys always do so good with these though, and the concepts themselves are dead on what I'd want to see in regional variants.
For the Cinderace variant, I was thinking of a Fire-Ground type, not only because of the colors but also because football players oftentimes get muddy during matches, especially when the field is dampened. But considering most football fields are often fake, like fake grass and plastic pellets, and not real grass and ground, I suppose it's fair enough. But eh, knowing how most football teams have bitter rivalries that often get certain players in trouble, especially high school football teams, the Fighting type seems well, in my opinion. Even if Fire-Fighting is a bit overused...
I am considering them do starter regional variants where the secondary type isn't change, but the primary/starter type is. For example, a Ghost type Fennekin that becomes Ghost/Psychic Delphox, based off how witches were executed in Salem. Unless there's no way for it to make much sense without becoming a new species, I'd rather next time they not be boring and keep the starter type. You could have these variants not be starters but rare wild encounters to show some diversity with the concept
I personally think the regional Scorbunny should instead be Fire/Ground; out of any sport football players are by far the ones who get slammed to the ground the most, the burly nature of many Ground-types would work well for a football player, and football players also end up with tons of dirt on their uniforms due to the aforementioned tackling, which could be why this Scorbunny is brown instead of white.
Inteleon: Make a regional variant from Hoops that isn't Dark-type or draw 25. Cinderace: American Football? ...k...Well it kinda looks like a Rock or Ground type, so as long as it's either of those or something interest...never mind. Sidenote: Fire/Ghost should be the hated combo now given we got two in a row. Meowscarada: WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE GARDE...it's Psychic...oh. Primarina: Make a regional variant from Hoops that isn't Ghost type. Difficulty: Impossible. Also, base Primarina looks better.
While being mono-type is pretty boring, it does have the benefit of making the Galar starters weak to a lot less moves. Inteleon being pure Water means it only has 2 weaknesses. Not to mention they were our first mono-type starter trio since the Johto starters.
Contrary to what you said, I love this Cinderace type. Because it actually does fit in perfectly with American style football. I’m no football fan but I can tell you firsthand that it’s a very tough and physically demanding sport. You have to be a fighter.
Same. Plus, it's been over a decade since the last Fire/Fighting starter (Emboar), so I think enough time has passed that we can add one more. Also, I wouldn't say the typing is "overused," at least, not at this point in time. It's really just the fact we got three in a row that creates the impression of it being overused, you know?
If team Yell got a hold of that regional variant of Primarina, I think it would play second fiddle to Obstagoon! Thereby becoming one of Team Yell's signature pokemon! It would be overpowered as heck, but that's why they like it! 😁
I don't think Primarina's new signature move would really be all that good. It has a massive Special Attack so a move like that would either 2-3 shot regardless of the added effect, making it essentially useless. If it 3 shots you're better off using Shadow Ball because it's stronger and will do more damage using it twice than Shrieking Sorrow would do in 3 moves. If you shorten it to 2 turns now that would be broken, so I'd say the best thing to do would be to change the effect entirely. I think something like Rage Fist would do wonders for a regional Primarina, the explanation could be that each time it is hit the pain and sorrow in it grows more intensely making the attack stronger. Literally just a Special Rage Fist, it's still good and matches the whole theme and isn't situational. Plus with Primarina's massive Special Attack and Special Defense being high it would be quite powerful against Special Attacking foes, but the trade off could be that it is slow and struggles against Physical Attacking foes. That was just for the move, but I really liked the designs in this video. I just thought that such a cool design should deserve a good move to go along with it. The original move itself wasn't a bad idea but it was used on the wrong Pokémon. A more defensive Pokémon with high utility and low attacking stats would be great with the original move concept. It could be used as a threat or used in a drawn out battle to change the pace. [Edit] Another idea I got upon rewatching this would be to just make it a targeted Perrish Song, that would be broken and much better than the concept of the move in the video.
I wish we had gotten Incineroar in this video as he's the one I was waiting for the most, but just gives me more reason to watch out for the final video! If you've not already designed it, I had an idea for Incineroar that still plays with its wrestling motif, OG Incineroar is based off "Heel" or villain wrestlers, so if there was a regional variant, it would be cool if it was based on being a "Face", or heroic wrestler. I was thinking it could include elements of famous Face Wrestlers in the US as well (since Incineroar was based off the famous Japanese "Heel" Tiger Mask), with Regional Incineroar taking cues from Hulk Hogan, one of the most famous American good guy wrestlers. As for typing, just like OG Incineroar is /Dark because its a villain, Regional Incineroar would play into that be /Fairy (instead of /Fighting), because he's a "hero" and a "good guy". I know Fighting-type is way more obvious, but we really don't need another Fire/Fighting type, and Regional Incineroar would be a Fairy because he's a hero in wrestling kayfabe, plus he would still have an advantage not only against his Heel counterpart, but other 'wrestler' Pokémon in general. Plus, Fire/Fairy is one of those typings we haven't gotten a representative for yet! As for a signature move, I was thinking of basic it off Hulk Hogan's own signature move "Leg Drop", it would be a physical Fire move with recoil that is also treated as a Fairy move for typing (like Flying press is both Flying and Fighting). That makes it a very versatile move, but like with real wrestling there's a good chance Incineroar would hurt himself when he uses it and put him in a risky situation.
Wow, for once you actually surprised me with the typing choice with one of these Pokémon, being the Cinderace one. Guessing the typing before you announce them was so laughably easy, but I thought Cinderace was gonna be Fire/Ground. But to be fair, that would make Cinderace a walk in the park for Water-types and give Grass-types a bit more of an edge. Meowscarada looks like a fusion of itself and Gardevoir.
Honestly though, I can see how you could think it's a ground type. Football is known for how rough it can be, and also tackling your opponents to the ground, essentially covering them in dirt and mud(Agureably thats even more of an agurement for fighting, but my point still stands.)
@@THEGREATPAPYRUS9_5 Exactly. And it would be a neat typing, despite the 4x weakness to water. Maybe it could've gotten an abilty that weakens the effectiveness of Water-type moves.
Oooh! The regional Primarina is amazing! The banshee aspect is perfect to reveal at this time of year. I initially thought the Cinderace would be Fire/Ground since football players do tend to get dirty. That was a surprise change.
Great video. When looking at the Galar starters, I thought the original Inteleon (my Galar starter) would be part Poison or Ghost Type, while Cinderace would be part Electric type. The Alternative Meowscarda didn't caught interest. However, Primarina was great, and I would want that on my team!
I think a Kalos game set in Ancient Kalos 3,000 war would break the idea of just a Variant, and give us a truly NEW Pokémon. The Base forms would remain exactly the same: Chespin, Fennekin, Froakie. Same Pure Grass, Fire, Water Types, and their Ability & Hidden Abilities would remain unchanged. But starting with their Second Stage/"Middle Forms", would be Variants. Quilladin - Grass/Steel Overgrow/- (HA: Heatproof) Braixen - Fire/Fairy Blaze/- (HA: Pixilate) Frogadier - Water/Poison Torrent/- (HA: Poison Touch) With new Final Evolutions as: "Chesarmor" Grass/Steel Overgrow/- (HA: Heatproof) [Quadrupedal Tank Porcupine with silver body and thicker armor-instead of the tan that Chesnaught has.] "Oruacisune" Fire/Fairy Blaze/- (HA: Pixilate) [Quadrupedal Kitsune--like Ninetales and Delphox fused together; except it has 1 single tail with a vine or branch held in the air. Pink/Purple fire burns on both ends of the vine/branch, but doesn't destroy the material.] "Bombakage" Water/Poison Torrent/- (HA: Poison Touch) [Sits on hind legs like a classic frog. Larger than Greninja, like a fusion of Venusaur and Seismitoad. Has purple~blue skin with bubbles of toxins. Is adept at ninja abilities like Greninja, but prefers to attack with smokescreens, illusions, and toxic darts--rather than Shurikens.] With potential Megas (as the Mega Stones appeared after the Ultimate Weapon was fired), the Mega Stones could be found/Obtained by using Hoopa-themed Ring Portals--like the Time-Space Distortions in Arceus. You could Obtain the "Modern" Kalos Evolutions/Pokémon the same way as in Arceus, through the Portals, where the Kalos Starters would have Megas that have inspirations/concepts from their "Ancestor" Pokémon. Mega Chesnaught would become Steel/Fighting with Bulletproof Mega Delphox would become Fairy/Psychic with Pixilate Mega Greninja would become Poison/Dark with Protean. Combining the attributes, looks, and movesets of BOTH Pokémon would be the way to balance both pairs of Starters--but the Older Pokémon probably wouldn't get Megas, just to keep THAT Trend, of the Kalos main choices not getting Megas--but represented in the other ones. You'd also get to Obtain the Older "Hisui" Forms of Avalugg and Sliggoo/Goodra naturally in the old Region, and the newer ones locked to the Hoopa Portals. With new Evolutions and Variants, you'd inevitably have new Megas as well--and this would be how you "Unlock" the alternate Megas of Venusaur and Blastoise. Whereas Charizard's Megas would be dubbed "X" and "Y" by your Character or the Boss you report to, you would get to call the different Mega Forms as "A" or "Z"...
Intelleon looks great, no complaints. Cinderace is also good, though I feel it lacks something on the forehead like the original, which would have matched the Football helmet theme. I like the design of Meowscarada, and I think a lot of the ideas behind it are very neat, but I think it deviates a bit too much from the original. I think a few too many elements got changed. With variants, I should be able to look at them and say "Oh, that's this Pokémon!" not, "is that supposed to be THIS Pokémon?" Primarina might actually be my favorite starter Pokémon, and this variant Primarina is... bland. It doesn't feel like a starter, it feels like a second or third stage Pokémon I'll find in an ice cave late in the game and forget about by the next one. It lacks all the pop colors that help Primarina stand out, you removed all the flowy aspects of the design in exchange for just giving it Gen1 spikes (which would have helped with it being Ghost-Type), Primarina already does the wavy hair thing when attacking (which you illustrated in the stock footage). Getting rid of the natural segmentation its body had really makes this Pokémon just look like a tube with limbs. And I probably have some bias, as I really like the original, but I just really do not like this interpretation at all. I think the concept can work, but this just feels like an over correction on a design you don't like.
I adore Inteleon's variant. I know it's based on a western gunslinger, but I get huge hunter from Bloodborne vibes. Though all these variants are great
Love your content but this time the forms look a little bit to similar to the original, Cinderace just looks dirty, Primarina changed make up. Inteleon is cool tho
If Shrieking Sorrow became a move, it would be a definite game changer for Pokémon, no pun intended. And as soon as I get some money set aside, I'm definitely getting a Folkachi doll!
It would be hard to use honestly, it's not really that good. Only in doubles could it have niche uses, but even then it's only for pressure and not as a KO move.
I never thought about it like that, because the move by itself is not all that good. Especially considering Primarina could likely just KO using Shadow Ball 3 times rather than rely on the gimmick to KO after using it for 3 turns. But if you use instruct it becomes the ultimate pressure for your opponent to switch out if you have a bad match up or for you to just KO something in two turns.
Other people can hate it, but I personally LOVE the Fire/Fighting-type! Not only is it exclusive to starter Pokémon (with the exception of Blaze Breed Tauros), but the type had several advantages in the gym challenges of yesteryear. In my opinion, I think Cinderace should have been a Fire/Fighting-type from the start since it already learns more than a few Fighting-type moves, and the fact that it's associated with sports only reinforces my belief further.
Fire/Fighting being exclusive to Starters isn't exactly true anymore, since Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros has the typing now. I agree that it's a great type combo, tho.
Yea, it isn't really that good. Especially on a Pokémon like Primarina who has a massive Special Attack Stat. I proposed that the move turn into a Special variant of Rage Fist.
You know what might be fun...starters who have typings other than the rut Pokemon has got into with some variation of ghost/dark/psychic/fighting/fairy. Artwork was nice on all of them and solid concepts but yeah, since gen six (excepting gen 8 going back to single typings) every typing is one of those.

"Despite losing its wing flaps in place of a long coat to protect it from heat, it is still a stealthy sharpshooter more adept at absorbing water for living in relatively hot areas of its region."

It is also able to turn a stone into a flaming football to throw and kick as it explodes on impact." "As well as gaining a bigger build, its fur and body become stronger and harder, with full strength making it able to break a cinderblock wall or a single car. They also take advantage of their weight to slam and demolish enemies with haughty and arrogant laughter."

"Found near shipwrecks and areas of watery death, they sing alluring songs that carry a curse to those who notice its singing, with the victim cursed to be hydrophobic to the point of dehydration and their bodies being dried out near their death."
How about a Fire/Fighting Incineroar based on sumo wrestling, a Grass/Ghost Rillaboom based on both African tribal drummers and Voodoo witch doctors, a Fire/Dragon Skeledirge based on traditional European dragon myths and finally, a Water/Flying Quaquaval based on both Imperial Japanese Kamikaze pilots and Swan Lake? Also, can you please give the Ultra Beasts of Alola Regional Forms and/or Paradox Forms?
-I would personally swap Inteleon to Water-Steel, 'cause Water-Dark is over-done... and with a gunslinger specifically, there is the term "Big iron on his wrist" -Yeeeeah.... that one is rather unavoidable... -Meowscarada looks like a more primal magician now, looks damn neat! -Whilst I dig the Banshee bit... I feel like Primarina needs more edits.
God dang Hoops I was going to make a evil Primerina ):< Joking aside I bet it's really cool (haven't finish the video yet) Edit: Not really surprised, not really disappointed, just expected.
I thought a lot of people liked the monotype of the Galar starters. It was bringing back to gen 2, and I prefer Cinderace as a fire only over yet ANOTHER fire/fighting Edit: gross for your edit of the Cinderace. Overused fighting, just keep it as fire?
The Cinderace, if you really didn't want to use Fire/Fighting, could've been Fire/Ground, because of the brown coloration and making a touchdown for slamming the ball to the ground. Btw, soccer is named football not only in the UK, but everywhere else in the world than the USA.
I like the idea behind the regional Primarina but I feel like the appearance could use a bit more to make it pop. Also you said you thought the move was really strong but it’s just a much weaker version of Perish Song, which regularly Primarina can learn through breeding. With Perish Song you only need to use it once, it can’t miss, it doesn’t matter if you faint before the third turn, normal types aren’t immune, and you can KO both your opponents Pokémon in double battles.
I believe Cinderace could have gone fire/ground as well. Yea in football they play on grass (fake grass idk) but they’re are many people playing on unofficial turf like in the back yard or park areas. All players are raising dirt as they run around or getting crazy muddy when they play in the rain, but keep going. Just food for thought
My dude, you can no longer ever say that fire/fighting is over used. XD You made 3 Water/ghost regional variants. Not only that, Ghost, is the third rarest type (including all variations and forms) yet its the most common type you've given the starters. XD a full quarter of your regional forms are ghost types so far.
Primarina lowkey resembles the dutch folkore creature “de witte wieven” (translated; the white women) who are spirits sometimes good sometimes evil, made from mist on top of bodies of water, either rivers or lakes. Connected to ghosts and the ‘witte wieven’ share can’t connections with banshees. She could also be an unovan starter, brought over by the pokemon equivalent of the dutch, since theyre known for sailing all across the globe idk
i wish this regional inteleon would be slightly different, not the fan of this Dark form since dark would've already fit the original one really well (like..its a shame gen8 starters didnt get a second type) but i get the concept, to the point i would wish for an actual more cowboyish look, more orange/brown coloring, and give it a ground or rock secondary typing
I could actually see Unovan Cinderace being a Fire/Ground if you were looking for an alternative option to the Fire/Fighting type for the rugged nature of American football
Hear me out - fire/ground for Unova Cinderace - the colour scheme fits, but also you spend a lot of time in the dirt and mud playing American Football!
I can’t lie that edgy pokemons are my guilty pleasure, but there has been so many edgelord-looking fakemons that it’s not cool anymore. Not like they’re gonna appear in official games anyway, but it carries the same vibe as those sonic oc
Would have liked to see inteleon’s body shape changed a bit more besides just covering it up. Maybe something bulky on it’s hips resembling a belt or something.
I think cinderance could've been fire ground considering that american football has a lot of tackling to the ground, becoming super muddy and dirty in the process, and the coloring of the variant gives a ground vibe. Also just not reusing the same starter combo that has been used for three pervious fire starters.
Ok so primarina is feminine is the only reason I can see as you dislike her og design? What about incineroar, feraligatr, etc that are masculine? Just curious usually one out of the three is a bit more feminine Magnesium, Meowscarada, Primarina
If there's an Irish region in the near future, that Primarina form would fit well for said region or a Legends game in said region, Irish and gaelic/celtic culture and such would be cool to explore in a future Pokémon generation if they are willing to tbh
cinderace variant could be fire/ground or fire/rock type easily. the brown fur could be mud from the field & reference the early mud bowl style games in early football history
Fire Rock. I heard someone that played American football refer to the ball as “the rock” idk if that’s an official term. Or fire steel in reference to the “Grid Iron”
I really like this water/dark version of inteleon, and this is coming from an inteleon disenjoyer myself. The design for this regional form makes inteleon look like a real deal marksman instead of lamer Austin Powers
Hoops,I have an idea for a fakemon series. Clearly Cufant is from a region based on India. You could do regional variants based on a region based on India.
Cindereace definitely should have been fire rock as a football is commonly referred to as a rock and could have had a rock football to throw at enemies like the term "let's go outside and throw the rock around"
I actually Love meowscarada but I dont feel like it needs a new form, just an update to its design I'm an artist so I look at Meowscarada and I feel like its design doesnt work as well as it should
Why do most of your variations look so dark? To me, that makes them not pop, the colors don't contrast and they look lifeless and bored. Not hate, just criticism you can choose to take or not
Another thing about the Inteleon variant that makes it work really well is that a lizard in a western cowboy setting isn't exactly something new - we have Rango
Not gonna lie, while I love what you do here with the starters, the look of the Inteleon variant looks more like a detective than a cowboy. Still these are all good designs even if I wish more of the cat starters stayed on all fours.
Your inteleon is really cool I love the western vibe to it, i didn't like inteleon when sword and shield first came out but its grown on me over the years and is probably now my favourite galar starter
I really expecting inteleon is a ghost type considering it can turn invisible cinderace is like fire and ground type bcuz it only expect it legs to do it power

@HoopsandHipHop some people are gonna be mad about meowscarada still standing up
These are good too! Cinderace is my personal favorite already, but I wouldn't mind this regional form if it happened. Love the outlaw theme of Inteleon as I'm a big fan of cowboys myself being a Texan and all that! I think Sprigatito should have become a sabre tooth tiger in its final stage, so you could understand how I felt after Meowscarada's announcement and release to the public. And have you seen the way the legs look? I'd downgrade on the hips and thighs as they make me a bit uncomfortable when looking at that area, it feels wrong for a starter such as this one.
Greninja is best
Never understood all the hate for Primarina, easily my top favorite starter. Love the variant too!
Agreed, Primarina's my fave too
Its good that people like the OG Primarina, but I am not one of those people haha.
Agreed , Primarina is not my favourite, rather quaquaval is , But Primarina is still one of my favourites! Its design is quite good , And its typing as the first fairy starter is perfect
@@AhmedMohammed-pf3jk my favorite Pokémon is my pal Ariel my level 15 female Popplio
Yesss!! Finally someone understands
It did seem like a partial missed opportunity for the Galar starter trio on not being dual types when fully evolved since Rillaboom could’ve been made a grass/fighting type, while Inteleon and Cinderace received a typing to match their respective designs.
Blaziken,infernape,emboar be like welcome to the club🤣🤣
7:38 Fire/Ground? Fire/Steel? Fire/Rock if we want to reall go out there.
Would've liked a fire, electric cinderace
I would've gone with Water/Steel for the Western inspired Inteleon to represent both the revolvers cowboys are usually depicter with and one of the biggest reasons for the existence of cowboys being the Gold Rush in the old west. Another reason I would go with that typing is because the existence of Greninja and Hisuian Samurott would make this version of Inteleon push the number of Water/Dark type combination starters to the same number as Fire/Fighting for starters.
I think that's interesting, however I also think that either Ghost or Fighting could've worked here.
-Ghost would let it be supe-effective against itself, letting Inteleon actually duel in game. The faster one gets the one shot.
-Fighting would be my other recommendation to represent the rugged and harshness of the western landscape and the scrappy nature of cowboys
Or ground/ Water for a wild west theme for inteleon one
So what’s the type breakdown for the regional starters? I’m seeing lots of Psychic, Ghost, Fairy, Dark, and Fighting over this series. Poison, Steel, and Electric are so far the most unusual.
Rock, Bug for regional variants would be awesome tbh
I saw the Cinderace design and immediately thought about rugby. Then after what you said about the "golden opportunity" of the regional variant I thought of a potential Australia region. The weirdest thing about this is I'm an American. The wild west Intellion design tickled me right, but I didn't see the American football avenue of Cinderace.
Same lol!!
Lol
I love the regular Primarina already, but now I love it even more with this regional variant 🎶
I completely agree. I also love Primarina, and this variant is also remarkable. Your inspiration of the banshee and its powers was a stroke of genius, and the signature move still goes well with its sound-based attacks.
@@BersealiaDreamheart a regional version of primarina being a water and ghost type will be my partner in any gameplay
@@BersealiaDreamheart Too bad the move itself isn't really all that good, but the design and inspiration are splendid.
As a huge Primarina fan, I gotta say that the banshee Primarina is a splendid idea, I love it! I'm also a ghost fan 😅
Banshee Primarina is ghoulishly gorgeous!!
I've always thought that, if Primarina would get a regional form, it would be a secondary type like in the video. Unlike your banshee inspiration however, I've I think that it would fit perfectly in a future Germany based region. The inspiration here would have been the Tale of Lorelei, a woman sitting on a rock (also named Lorelei) in the Rhine river who leads men to their death by sailing into the rock because she grieved the loss of her lover (in some tales he died and in others he cheated on and left her).
Wow!🤯 Regional Evolution of Meowscarada is dope, became Grass/Psychic.Choosing Meowscarada! Regional Form Inteleon look pretty wicked with Western Theme.
Cinderace would have been better as Fire/Steel or Fire/Ground, making it more defensive like a defensive lineman (or making a reference to gridiron or the helmets/goals with the steel typing). The design is fine but it was literally too easy, and fire/fighting is overused for starters. Intelleon's design is... the head looks weird. Great idea, but you could have gone sheriff instead of outlaw though that's a personal idea. The design is just a tad weird with the head and collar.
Meowscarada looks very witchy and I kinda like it, though the og design never gave me anything but a magician feel, so the "nobel" aspect is kind of weird. Primarina... great concept but the design just looks too... KISS? It's fine but doesn't look fitting to a banshee to me.
They're all great ideas though some of the execution was a bit off, IMO. You guys always do so good with these though, and the concepts themselves are dead on what I'd want to see in regional variants.
For the Cinderace variant, I was thinking of a Fire-Ground type, not only because of the colors but also because football players oftentimes get muddy during matches, especially when the field is dampened. But considering most football fields are often fake, like fake grass and plastic pellets, and not real grass and ground, I suppose it's fair enough.
But eh, knowing how most football teams have bitter rivalries that often get certain players in trouble, especially high school football teams, the Fighting type seems well, in my opinion. Even if Fire-Fighting is a bit overused...
That was my first impression too-until he said it's secondary was typing.
I am considering them do starter regional variants where the secondary type isn't change, but the primary/starter type is. For example, a Ghost type Fennekin that becomes Ghost/Psychic Delphox, based off how witches were executed in Salem. Unless there's no way for it to make much sense without becoming a new species, I'd rather next time they not be boring and keep the starter type. You could have these variants not be starters but rare wild encounters to show some diversity with the concept
I personally think the regional Scorbunny should instead be Fire/Ground; out of any sport football players are by far the ones who get slammed to the ground the most, the burly nature of many Ground-types would work well for a football player, and football players also end up with tons of dirt on their uniforms due to the aforementioned tackling, which could be why this Scorbunny is brown instead of white.
Definitely want to see your take on a regional Incineroar now
He should turn into a superhero to contrast the villainous wrestling heel.
he already did???
Inteleon: Make a regional variant from Hoops that isn't Dark-type or draw 25.
Cinderace: American Football? ...k...Well it kinda looks like a Rock or Ground type, so as long as it's either of those or something interest...never mind. Sidenote: Fire/Ghost should be the hated combo now given we got two in a row.
Meowscarada: WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE GARDE...it's Psychic...oh.
Primarina: Make a regional variant from Hoops that isn't Ghost type. Difficulty: Impossible. Also, base Primarina looks better.
While being mono-type is pretty boring, it does have the benefit of making the Galar starters weak to a lot less moves. Inteleon being pure Water means it only has 2 weaknesses. Not to mention they were our first mono-type starter trio since the Johto starters.
Contrary to what you said, I love this Cinderace type. Because it actually does fit in perfectly with American style football. I’m no football fan but I can tell you firsthand that it’s a very tough and physically demanding sport. You have to be a fighter.
Same. Plus, it's been over a decade since the last Fire/Fighting starter (Emboar), so I think enough time has passed that we can add one more.
Also, I wouldn't say the typing is "overused," at least, not at this point in time. It's really just the fact we got three in a row that creates the impression of it being overused, you know?
If team Yell got a hold of that regional variant of Primarina, I think it would play second fiddle to Obstagoon! Thereby becoming one of Team Yell's signature pokemon! It would be overpowered as heck, but that's why they like it! 😁
I don't think Primarina's new signature move would really be all that good. It has a massive Special Attack so a move like that would either 2-3 shot regardless of the added effect, making it essentially useless. If it 3 shots you're better off using Shadow Ball because it's stronger and will do more damage using it twice than Shrieking Sorrow would do in 3 moves. If you shorten it to 2 turns now that would be broken, so I'd say the best thing to do would be to change the effect entirely. I think something like Rage Fist would do wonders for a regional Primarina, the explanation could be that each time it is hit the pain and sorrow in it grows more intensely making the attack stronger. Literally just a Special Rage Fist, it's still good and matches the whole theme and isn't situational. Plus with Primarina's massive Special Attack and Special Defense being high it would be quite powerful against Special Attacking foes, but the trade off could be that it is slow and struggles against Physical Attacking foes.
That was just for the move, but I really liked the designs in this video. I just thought that such a cool design should deserve a good move to go along with it. The original move itself wasn't a bad idea but it was used on the wrong Pokémon. A more defensive Pokémon with high utility and low attacking stats would be great with the original move concept. It could be used as a threat or used in a drawn out battle to change the pace.
[Edit] Another idea I got upon rewatching this would be to just make it a targeted Perrish Song, that would be broken and much better than the concept of the move in the video.
I wish we had gotten Incineroar in this video as he's the one I was waiting for the most, but just gives me more reason to watch out for the final video! If you've not already designed it, I had an idea for Incineroar that still plays with its wrestling motif, OG Incineroar is based off "Heel" or villain wrestlers, so if there was a regional variant, it would be cool if it was based on being a "Face", or heroic wrestler. I was thinking it could include elements of famous Face Wrestlers in the US as well (since Incineroar was based off the famous Japanese "Heel" Tiger Mask), with Regional Incineroar taking cues from Hulk Hogan, one of the most famous American good guy wrestlers.
As for typing, just like OG Incineroar is /Dark because its a villain, Regional Incineroar would play into that be /Fairy (instead of /Fighting), because he's a "hero" and a "good guy". I know Fighting-type is way more obvious, but we really don't need another Fire/Fighting type, and Regional Incineroar would be a Fairy because he's a hero in wrestling kayfabe, plus he would still have an advantage not only against his Heel counterpart, but other 'wrestler' Pokémon in general. Plus, Fire/Fairy is one of those typings we haven't gotten a representative for yet!
As for a signature move, I was thinking of basic it off Hulk Hogan's own signature move "Leg Drop", it would be a physical Fire move with recoil that is also treated as a Fairy move for typing (like Flying press is both Flying and Fighting). That makes it a very versatile move, but like with real wrestling there's a good chance Incineroar would hurt himself when he uses it and put him in a risky situation.
Wow, for once you actually surprised me with the typing choice with one of these Pokémon, being the Cinderace one.
Guessing the typing before you announce them was so laughably easy, but I thought Cinderace was gonna be Fire/Ground. But to be fair, that would make Cinderace a walk in the park for Water-types and give Grass-types a bit more of an edge.
Meowscarada looks like a fusion of itself and Gardevoir.
Honestly though, I can see how you could think it's a ground type. Football is known for how rough it can be, and also tackling your opponents to the ground, essentially covering them in dirt and mud(Agureably thats even more of an agurement for fighting, but my point still stands.)
@@THEGREATPAPYRUS9_5 Exactly. And it would be a neat typing, despite the 4x weakness to water. Maybe it could've gotten an abilty that weakens the effectiveness of Water-type moves.
Primarina slay but I wish her hair was longer but still a good design
I would really pick this new Primarina for me! Or Primshee.
How could you hate primarina it is one of the best designed starters and its typing is so good
Oooh! The regional Primarina is amazing! The banshee aspect is perfect to reveal at this time of year. I initially thought the Cinderace would be Fire/Ground since football players do tend to get dirty. That was a surprise change.
I love this new Meowscarada variant. 😮
Fire-ground for cinderace makes alot more sense idk
Great video. When looking at the Galar starters, I thought the original Inteleon (my Galar starter) would be part Poison or Ghost Type, while Cinderace would be part Electric type. The Alternative Meowscarda didn't caught interest. However, Primarina was great, and I would want that on my team!
I think a Kalos game set in Ancient Kalos 3,000 war would break the idea of just a Variant, and give us a truly NEW Pokémon.
The Base forms would remain exactly the same: Chespin, Fennekin, Froakie. Same Pure Grass, Fire, Water Types, and their Ability & Hidden Abilities would remain unchanged.
But starting with their Second Stage/"Middle Forms", would be Variants.
Quilladin - Grass/Steel Overgrow/- (HA: Heatproof)
Braixen - Fire/Fairy Blaze/-
(HA: Pixilate)
Frogadier - Water/Poison Torrent/-
(HA: Poison Touch)
With new Final Evolutions as:
"Chesarmor" Grass/Steel Overgrow/-
(HA: Heatproof)
[Quadrupedal Tank Porcupine with silver body and thicker armor-instead of the tan that Chesnaught has.]
"Oruacisune" Fire/Fairy Blaze/-
(HA: Pixilate)
[Quadrupedal Kitsune--like Ninetales and Delphox fused together; except it has 1 single tail with a vine or branch held in the air. Pink/Purple fire burns on both ends of the vine/branch, but doesn't destroy the material.]
"Bombakage" Water/Poison Torrent/-
(HA: Poison Touch)
[Sits on hind legs like a classic frog. Larger than Greninja, like a fusion of Venusaur and Seismitoad. Has purple~blue skin with bubbles of toxins. Is adept at ninja abilities like Greninja, but prefers to attack with smokescreens, illusions, and toxic darts--rather than Shurikens.]
With potential Megas (as the Mega Stones appeared after the Ultimate Weapon was fired), the Mega Stones could be found/Obtained by using Hoopa-themed Ring Portals--like the Time-Space Distortions in Arceus.
You could Obtain the "Modern" Kalos Evolutions/Pokémon the same way as in Arceus, through the Portals, where the Kalos Starters would have Megas that have inspirations/concepts from their "Ancestor" Pokémon.
Mega Chesnaught would become Steel/Fighting with Bulletproof
Mega Delphox would become Fairy/Psychic with Pixilate
Mega Greninja would become Poison/Dark with Protean.
Combining the attributes, looks, and movesets of BOTH Pokémon would be the way to balance both pairs of Starters--but the Older Pokémon probably wouldn't get Megas, just to keep THAT Trend, of the Kalos main choices not getting Megas--but represented in the other ones.
You'd also get to Obtain the Older "Hisui" Forms of Avalugg and Sliggoo/Goodra naturally in the old Region, and the newer ones locked to the Hoopa Portals.
With new Evolutions and Variants, you'd inevitably have new Megas as well--and this would be how you "Unlock" the alternate Megas of Venusaur and Blastoise. Whereas Charizard's Megas would be dubbed "X" and "Y" by your Character or the Boss you report to, you would get to call the different Mega Forms as "A" or "Z"...
Intelleon looks great, no complaints. Cinderace is also good, though I feel it lacks something on the forehead like the original, which would have matched the Football helmet theme. I like the design of Meowscarada, and I think a lot of the ideas behind it are very neat, but I think it deviates a bit too much from the original. I think a few too many elements got changed. With variants, I should be able to look at them and say "Oh, that's this Pokémon!" not, "is that supposed to be THIS Pokémon?"
Primarina might actually be my favorite starter Pokémon, and this variant Primarina is... bland. It doesn't feel like a starter, it feels like a second or third stage Pokémon I'll find in an ice cave late in the game and forget about by the next one. It lacks all the pop colors that help Primarina stand out, you removed all the flowy aspects of the design in exchange for just giving it Gen1 spikes (which would have helped with it being Ghost-Type), Primarina already does the wavy hair thing when attacking (which you illustrated in the stock footage). Getting rid of the natural segmentation its body had really makes this Pokémon just look like a tube with limbs. And I probably have some bias, as I really like the original, but I just really do not like this interpretation at all. I think the concept can work, but this just feels like an over correction on a design you don't like.
I adore Inteleon's variant. I know it's based on a western gunslinger, but I get huge hunter from Bloodborne vibes.
Though all these variants are great
No hate intended, but I think the Meowscarada looks hideous. Idk if that was the point of if I'm just a crazy Meowscarada stand
I LOVE your take on a regional primarina.thats probably not saying much since primarina is my favorite pokemon
6:00 A little correction: people don't call that game "football" in the UK, but literally everywhere except the US.
Love your content but this time the forms look a little bit to similar to the original, Cinderace just looks dirty, Primarina changed make up. Inteleon is cool tho
Primarina is my favorite Pokemon. But the. You did this. I want it reginal variants yes but not looking dull
For football Cinderace, I would’ve suggested Fire/Ground.
7:38
Answer- Fire STEEL, in reference to football gear from the helmet to the shoes.
I think a good way to balance Shrieking sorrow would be to make it like Yawn, but instead of the Sleep condition, make it the Curse condition.
I honestly think the move should be reworked into a special variant of Rage Fist, the effect in the video isn't really all that good with Primarina.
I would have had him hold his tail like a lasso. Would help with the “Western” look.
If Shrieking Sorrow became a move, it would be a definite game changer for Pokémon, no pun intended. And as soon as I get some money set aside, I'm definitely getting a Folkachi doll!
It would be hard to use honestly, it's not really that good. Only in doubles could it have niche uses, but even then it's only for pressure and not as a KO move.
I LOVE MEOWSCARADA
doubles strategies including Regional Primarina would probably have a Pokemon with Instruct so that Shrieking Sorrow would hit twice in one turn
I never thought about it like that, because the move by itself is not all that good. Especially considering Primarina could likely just KO using Shadow Ball 3 times rather than rely on the gimmick to KO after using it for 3 turns. But if you use instruct it becomes the ultimate pressure for your opponent to switch out if you have a bad match up or for you to just KO something in two turns.
I can't wait for the final video of this series to come out
Also bro loves the Ghost Type
Especially water ghost types lol
Other people can hate it, but I personally LOVE the Fire/Fighting-type! Not only is it exclusive to starter Pokémon (with the exception of Blaze Breed Tauros), but the type had several advantages in the gym challenges of yesteryear. In my opinion, I think Cinderace should have been a Fire/Fighting-type from the start since it already learns more than a few Fighting-type moves, and the fact that it's associated with sports only reinforces my belief further.
Fire/Fighting being exclusive to Starters isn't exactly true anymore, since Blaze Breed Paldean Tauros has the typing now. I agree that it's a great type combo, tho.
@@AuraStrikeAce I almost forgot about Blaze Breed Tauros being a Fire/Fighting-type as well, so thanks for reminding me. 😊
Shrieking sorrow its not so broken because its kind of a worse perish song, that just needs to be used one time
Yea, it isn't really that good. Especially on a Pokémon like Primarina who has a massive Special Attack Stat. I proposed that the move turn into a Special variant of Rage Fist.
You know what might be fun...starters who have typings other than the rut Pokemon has got into with some variation of ghost/dark/psychic/fighting/fairy. Artwork was nice on all of them and solid concepts but yeah, since gen six (excepting gen 8 going back to single typings) every typing is one of those.
This Cinderace is leagues better than the official one
I think it's hilarious how you made it fire/fighting.

Dex:
The Outlaw Pokémon
"Adapted to a hotter and harsher environment changed Inteleon to be adept to the sun and more powerful, as well as more rebellious, capable of firing incredibly pressurized droplets that can drop dead targets from water it absorbs at a greater quantity."
"Despite losing its wing flaps in place of a long coat to protect it from heat, it is still a stealthy sharpshooter more adept at absorbing water for living in relatively hot areas of its region."

Dex:
The Rugby Pokémon
"Evolution made Cinderace much tougher than its Galarian counterpart, running and taking bodily blows more efficiently, as well as tackling and subduing any threats with its muscly fur and strong legs. It is also able to turn a stone into a flaming football to throw and kick as it explodes on impact."
"As well as gaining a bigger build, its fur and body become stronger and harder, with full strength making it able to break a cinderblock wall or a single car. They also take advantage of their weight to slam and demolish enemies with haughty and arrogant laughter."
Regional Meowscarada nicknames: Whiteleon, Leonarada, The Mossilante, Vigilante Green, Verdant Claw, Belmont, The Lion, Leoscarada, Magileo, Circuleon, Leomajika, Magic King, King Card, Sigfreud, Roy, Albina, Magialbinis, Spellcast, Lawful Good, Lawfulrada
Dex:
The Magician Pokémon
"Unlike its trickster Paldean counterpart, this form of Meowscarada is lawful good and more of a vigilante, using its grown psychic abilities to do good in the world of humans and Pokemon, using mind-bending trickery and its sense of justice."
"Evolution made not only Meowscarada much wiser, but also bigger, having a bigger head mane and physical prowess outside its enhanced psychic abilities used for spells to cast out evil foes."

Dex:
The Shriek Pokémon
"Evolved from hearing the mourned souls who died by the sea, this hauntingly shrill form of Primarina carries the vengeance and guilt of those who died by the waves, only quelled by voices of purity and forgiveness from which it can be silenced and tamed."
"Found near shipwrecks and areas of watery death, they sing alluring songs that carry a curse to those who notice its singing, with the victim cursed to be hydrophobic to the point of dehydration and their bodies being dried out near their death."
How about a Fire/Fighting Incineroar based on sumo wrestling, a Grass/Ghost Rillaboom based on both African tribal drummers and Voodoo witch doctors, a Fire/Dragon Skeledirge based on traditional European dragon myths and finally, a Water/Flying Quaquaval based on both Imperial Japanese Kamikaze pilots and Swan Lake? Also, can you please give the Ultra Beasts of Alola Regional Forms and/or Paradox Forms?
-I would personally swap Inteleon to Water-Steel, 'cause Water-Dark is over-done... and with a gunslinger specifically, there is the term "Big iron on his wrist"
-Yeeeeah.... that one is rather unavoidable...
-Meowscarada looks like a more primal magician now, looks damn neat!
-Whilst I dig the Banshee bit... I feel like Primarina needs more edits.
Disliked for Fire Fighting Cinderace. If Incineroar, the literal WRESTLER, was Fire Dark then Cinderace don't need to be Fire Fighting.
God dang Hoops I was going to make a evil Primerina ):<
Joking aside I bet it's really cool (haven't finish the video yet)
Edit: Not really surprised, not really disappointed, just expected.
I thought a lot of people liked the monotype of the Galar starters. It was bringing back to gen 2, and I prefer Cinderace as a fire only over yet ANOTHER fire/fighting
Edit: gross for your edit of the Cinderace. Overused fighting, just keep it as fire?
The Cinderace, if you really didn't want to use Fire/Fighting, could've been Fire/Ground, because of the brown coloration and making a touchdown for slamming the ball to the ground.
Btw, soccer is named football not only in the UK, but everywhere else in the world than the USA.
I like the idea behind the regional Primarina but I feel like the appearance could use a bit more to make it pop. Also you said you thought the move was really strong but it’s just a much weaker version of Perish Song, which regularly Primarina can learn through breeding. With Perish Song you only need to use it once, it can’t miss, it doesn’t matter if you faint before the third turn, normal types aren’t immune, and you can KO both your opponents Pokémon in double battles.
I believe Cinderace could have gone fire/ground as well. Yea in football they play on grass (fake grass idk) but they’re are many people playing on unofficial turf like in the back yard or park areas. All players are raising dirt as they run around or getting crazy muddy when they play in the rain, but keep going. Just food for thought
My dude, you can no longer ever say that fire/fighting is over used. XD You made 3 Water/ghost regional variants. Not only that, Ghost, is the third rarest type (including all variations and forms) yet its the most common type you've given the starters. XD a full quarter of your regional forms are ghost types so far.
Primarina lowkey resembles the dutch folkore creature “de witte wieven” (translated; the white women) who are spirits sometimes good sometimes evil, made from mist on top of bodies of water, either rivers or lakes. Connected to ghosts and the ‘witte wieven’ share can’t connections with banshees. She could also be an unovan starter, brought over by the pokemon equivalent of the dutch, since theyre known for sailing all across the globe idk
I say this as a VERY exhausted custodian, but Football Cinderace would easily be Fire/Ground. you wouldn’t even have to change the colors on it lmao
i wish this regional inteleon would be slightly different, not the fan of this Dark form since dark would've already fit the original one really well (like..its a shame gen8 starters didnt get a second type) but i get the concept, to the point i would wish for an actual more cowboyish look, more orange/brown coloring, and give it a ground or rock secondary typing
I could actually see Unovan Cinderace being a Fire/Ground if you were looking for an alternative option to the Fire/Fighting type for the rugged nature of American football
Fire- Rock for cinderace with the rock head ability so it doesn’t get hurt when it “tackles” opposing Pokémon
Hear me out - fire/ground for Unova Cinderace - the colour scheme fits, but also you spend a lot of time in the dirt and mud playing American Football!
I can’t lie that edgy pokemons are my guilty pleasure, but there has been so many edgelord-looking fakemons that it’s not cool anymore. Not like they’re gonna appear in official games anyway, but it carries the same vibe as those sonic oc
Would have liked to see inteleon’s body shape changed a bit more besides just covering it up. Maybe something bulky on it’s hips resembling a belt or something.
I think cinderance could've been fire ground considering that american football has a lot of tackling to the ground, becoming super muddy and dirty in the process, and the coloring of the variant gives a ground vibe. Also just not reusing the same starter combo that has been used for three pervious fire starters.
Ok so primarina is feminine is the only reason I can see as you dislike her og design? What about incineroar, feraligatr, etc that are masculine? Just curious usually one out of the three is a bit more feminine Magnesium, Meowscarada, Primarina
If there's an Irish region in the near future, that Primarina form would fit well for said region or a Legends game in said region, Irish and gaelic/celtic culture and such would be cool to explore in a future Pokémon generation if they are willing to tbh
cinderace variant could be fire/ground or fire/rock type easily. the brown fur could be mud from the field & reference the early mud bowl style games in early football history
I don't know why, but this new regional Primarina reminds me of Ursula from The Little Mermaid
I think that you could have gone with Cinderace being a Fire/Ground type instead of Fire/Fighting.
The Inteleon’s head fin reminds me of the cap(??) that the Hunter wears in Bloodborne
Why are all of them dark colors? 😢 would have loved some more diversity. Good designs but we could use brighter tones
As an opera singer who is married to a Hawaiian person, I love Primarina so much. It’s okay if you disagree; pistols at dawn. 😂
Fire Rock. I heard someone that played American football refer to the ball as “the rock” idk if that’s an official term. Or fire steel in reference to the “Grid Iron”
Just give Primarina Mean Look and Shadow Tag hidden ability. Make it broken.
Actually we have banshee inspired pokémon. Misdreavus is basicly based on banshees. 😊
Does Unovan Inteleon's head crest look like the Xenomorph queen's crest or am I just weird?
Well I like how you based Primarina on a Banshee since it is also based on a Selkie which also comes from Celtic mythology
Would this Meowscarada have a gender difference? It kinda looks like delphox.
I really like this water/dark version of inteleon, and this is coming from an inteleon disenjoyer myself. The design for this regional form makes inteleon look like a real deal marksman instead of lamer Austin Powers
Hoops,I have an idea for a fakemon series. Clearly Cufant is from a region based on India. You could do regional variants based on a region based on India.
Cindereace definitely should have been fire rock as a football is commonly referred to as a rock and could have had a rock football to throw at enemies like the term "let's go outside and throw the rock around"
The football player Cinderace could be ground type. Give it access to headlong rush
I actually Love meowscarada but I dont feel like it needs a new form, just an update to its design
I'm an artist so I look at Meowscarada and I feel like its design doesnt work as well as it should
Why do most of your variations look so dark? To me, that makes them not pop, the colors don't contrast and they look lifeless and bored. Not hate, just criticism you can choose to take or not
For Primarina I would have kept the typing and give her some ghostly ability.
Another thing about the Inteleon variant that makes it work really well is that a lizard in a western cowboy setting isn't exactly something new - we have Rango
Not gonna lie, while I love what you do here with the starters, the look of the Inteleon variant looks more like a detective than a cowboy. Still these are all good designs even if I wish more of the cat starters stayed on all fours.
Your inteleon is really cool I love the western vibe to it, i didn't like inteleon when sword and shield first came out but its grown on me over the years and is probably now my favourite galar starter
I really expecting inteleon is a ghost type considering it can turn invisible cinderace is like fire and ground type bcuz it only expect it legs to do it power
Oh look it is once again the Ozzy Osbourne to regular Primarina’s Geddy Lee
I really hope regional variants continue in new games. I feel like rfakes just don’t work as well.
