just looking at the thumbnail makes me love this video
Just imagine being a random shepherd and one of your alpaca just turns out to be God
One heck of a role reversal
That's some Old Testament bullshit
“The lord is my shepherd but in this case, he is my sheep/alpaca and I will lead him to green pastures.” -some random shepherd, probably
I want to reply to this but my brain won’t make it up so that is really really funny
“I , Arceus is pleased with the kindness of you shepherd you will get a blessing” would be insane to hear from a alpaca that’s actually god
Alpaceus should have a similar ability to multitype, but it depends on how its hair is cut
Literally Furfrou but with a purpose, I love that!
Make it blankets instead
Furfrou but alpaca
I play a lot of gen 6 so I do not feel the pain you guys do over losing furfrou
-Opponent used Cut
-Alpaceus transformed into the Dragon type!
sounds exactly like one of the fakemon one of the artist did in "4 artist fakemon #8"
Cyclizar is a great example of de-legendary & leaves the possibilities wide open
honestly, koraidon and miraidon are just paradox versions of cyclizar,
And if you think about it Koraidon and Miraidon are just regular pokemon in their timelines, they are legendery in ours because only 2 of them were transported to our timeline
@@monst3r_child832they literally are and have paradox names being winged king and iron serpent
@@User-xh5zu Well, their names are based on korai and mirai, past and future respectively.
I think Alpacues herders would do a headcount every morning. If you have one more than usual, then pokegod Arceus is in your flock today. If not, you just have a normal Alpacues flock.
"I am under immense pressure today. I have exactly 25 Alpacues, today i have 26."
Arceus first hiding itself in an egg so that the herder thinks it’s a normal Alpacues: I am 4 parallel universes ahead of you
Imagine someone gives you a heart attack by giving you their alpacaeus
@@molassesman4066 that probably would be a common prank among them haha
God, only the comments section could get me to think about skinwalkers during a pokemon video 💀
@@terrykrugii5652 okay to ease your mood lets go think about SHINwalkers instead
Love seeing Eternatus get this treatment! Nice to see how it would look if it hadn't been given the utra beast-esque treatment.
its you!
I see Eternarus closer to Deoxys in concept. If it's the idea of a space virus very well how it doesn't look or act like a living being
I had made an entire theory that I may record and upload about Eternatus. To simplify it: Eternatus is a Sentient Black Hole and Dynamax Energy is Hawking Radiation.
@@MysticG03the earth is gonna fucking collapse if its a blackhole
A good way to explain this concept would probably be carbink and diancie and I feel if you keep them in mind it would give you more freedom when it comes to colours
Or Cyclizar and Koraidon/Miraidon
That a Pokémon is a descendant of a legendary Pokémon or that the legendary is a mutation would be pretty funny
Imagine being allowed to breed legendary Pokémon, but all you get is a relatively normal Pokémon with strange moves.
Centuroar looks so dope! Impressed with how you were able to mix in the skeleton vibes 👌🏽
So true
Omg LTZ your video's are so amazing, you and TG are one of my favourite poketubers :D
I love your vids you are such an inspiration
Please make this a series, this was brilliant
Alpaca Arceus is perfect 😂 we need a regular Alpaca Pokémon so bad!
I think we shall get it along with many other new creatures...that is once they do feature a region based on Peru and the former Inca Empire... Actually now that I think about it since the heaviest creature was confirmed to have lived in Peru (Perucetus Colossus), there could be some story line that could and should involve Kyogre and Wailord.
The idea of a sculptor Pokémon is so fun, the way you described it I could imagine this being a game mechanic akin to Zorua. Imagine you encounter a Skitty you hit it once and text appears that that’s “It was just a wooden puppet…” and then the real Pokémon switches in “A wild Scultimber has appeared!”
Feel like Sculptimber should have had some sort of Substitute ability, like when a substitute is out it gains an additional hit on moves like Parental bond, to really get into it's puppeteering skills.
That should be an alternate, as its other ability also fits like a glove. It could show how some are more interested in the craft, while others are interested in the puppeteering.
I was thinking more like, once every battle, it starts with a permanent substitute that switches in & out with it until it is destroyed. Substitute created with the move substitute will not switch with the pokemon (I just added it for game balancing since that seemed like overkill)
I always thought that Eternatus is a manifestation of a rogue hand of Arceus, this is what I believe because it’s Eternamax form it is a massive hand
or you know...
king arthur's dad? Uther Pendragon
@@TheHammerGuy94 What, I’m talking about the massive Dragon, not sword doggo
Centuroar feels like the offspring of Dialga and Giratina. I love it!
Alpaceus headcannon: Alpaceus was bred from this unknown alpaca pokémon by this farmer who saw arceus and wanted to replicate it
I feel like Sculptimber was made by someone who admired Regigigas and built it in its image. Regigigas liked it so much he brought it to life and made it act similar to it.
If you do another episode of this series, I would love to see a non Legendary Lunala
I’ve always imagined it as something like Noivern, since the wing hands are very wyvern/bat like. All the lunar elements would make it amazing though!
I want a non legendary articuno, it would be a lil blu berd
I want a non legendary reshiram and ho-oh too :3
The whole cosmog line can easily look like an early game pokemon with gender or stone based evolutions
These are incredibly cool!
I love how you can read into the history behind Alpaceus in multiple ways, whether Arceus created it in its own image, or the myth of Arceus was created by ancient humans based on the powers of Alpaceus
Sculptimber reminds me of the beta design of Regigigas. Maybe not so much in appearance, but in personality.
Lethalaman's shiny looks so cool, I love it!
Also, there's just something about Sculptimber that feels comforting, almost as if it is like a protector of children that get lost in the woods, kinda scary but soothing.
Now we wait the preevo form,by the way your impression of scluptimber remind me of Disney Gepetto
I’m only at 10:24, so maybe he mentions this, but I love the little detail of Lethalaman making others “swell up,” as well as having Multiscale as an HA. Very creative way to reference its ties to the Dynamax phenomenon!
Poor Lethalaman that became Etarnatus. The poor thing must be living in pain constantly, or maybe sensations have become an alien concept, for the eons living without nerves...
Alpaceus should be the Beta Pokémon or (other Greek letter pokemon), but this one fits too
Sculptimber is definitely my favorite one. Such a unique concept of being a wooden puppeteer. I also love your design for it, it’s reminiscent of Regigigas while having its own identity to the point where it’s very very believable as a fakemon. I could imagine Nintendo using a design similar to this in future games. Keep up the good work!
Opinion: There are way too many legendaries at this point.And their desgins are more and more extra and grandiose.
These remakes are awesome and feels like they fit naturally into the world of Pokémon.
it kinda ruins the whole legendary feel of a pokemon when theres so many of them now
@@b1ockster57 does it really? It makes sense for each region to have its own legends. Legendaries and myrhicals are like the gods and minor deities of the pokémon world, real world cultures and religions have even way more than the ones in pokémon. Some of them aren't even that, mewtwo and genesect were made in a lab as weapons, koraidon and miraidon are just the past and future forms of cyclizar, necrozma and eternatus are from another dimension
@@door-chanit is if and when you have *every* legendary and mythical in one region
@door-chan I think gens 1 and 2 had it right. 5-6 legends/ mythicals per region, and confined to that region, is perfect. Gen 3 began to do too much, but the designs and lore were all solid, so it still worked.
Gen 4 was when they began to add too many. It was so cluttered. I can't even recall the ones from Gen 5. Add in access to old legends and it really is too much. They don't feel special anymore, and they should.
I love Gen 3 (tied with Gen 2 as my favorite), but I think that's when the oversaturation started. They were incorporated into the story (well, Gen 2 actually did this with the beasts, and then ofc Crystal), and it was EPIC and really felt urgent. So I think they've been going with that philosophy for every game since, which tbh is feeling a bit tired by now. Especially since in Gen 4, they had a god, and how do you top that?
So not only do we indeed have too many, they're kind of forced on us now.
Gens 6, 8, and 9 dialed it back a bit with the number of legends, which is good.
@@lazyhippie6139Gen 3 and 4 have this problem of their legendaries legitimately feeling like creator deity gods, and I think its a problematic design choice. The weather trio, creation trio, lake trio, and Regigigas feel way too 'important' for the player to just be casually catching. Other generations still somewhat have this problem, like Necrozma being some injured god of light from ultra space, but thay works since its from another dimension. The more casual legendaries like Gen 5, (most of) 7, 8, and 9's legends so far work much better, as they're more local super strong unique pokemon, ones that would actually have a legend built up around them, rather then being religious tales passed down.
Like Ogrepon is clearly no local god or something, its a super strong pokemon with no others in its species with a storied past. That an ideal design for a legendary pokemon imo.
All these Pokemon feel like they could be existing Pokemon with the lore you made!
I like this idea!
Would love to see the what the 3 birds, 3 beast, Ho-Oh, Lugia, and the Galar sword and shield legendaries look like as normal pokemon.
Ho-oh would be finally a peacock :D
Or a rooster, but with colorfull rooster tail :D
D O G G O S
Arent the 3 beasts just a more enhanced Vaporeon, Flareon and Jolteon when Ho-Oh revived them?
Even abilities match iirc.
...Down to Entei and Flareon both having dogshit movesets.
Great idea. They're all so good, but Centuroar is definitely my favourite. Want. Hope this does become a series, because i'd love to see Palkia and Giratina.
I love how, even though they aren’t legendaries, they still are linked to their legendary inspiration in your lore. Would love to see more!
“Turning Sponsers into Pokémon!”
Would low-key be funny as hell 😂
I have two ideas/questions that you don't seem to have videos about yet:
- what if the Eeveelutions could evolve further?
- what are your ideas for expanding the Rotom variation line?
Loved all the designs! My favorite is Sculptimber but what if its ability was something related to the move substitute? Like creating a substitute when it drops below half health or something, I think that would fit the puppeter theme better!
Scluptimber and the concept behind it is so dope.
In my head I imagined wat of it had a Day/Night form. Like I can see a haunted forrest version of it tht comes out at night. It'd b a Ghost/Grass
Amazing work as always, I really loved the way you managed to evoke the original designs whilst paring them down and twisting them just enough. The Centuroar is aces!!
I'd honestly love to see this become a series! If you do continue, could you PLEASE do Rayquaza? I think it'd be funny to see the legendary Pokemon that's capable of dealing with Ground & Kyogre turn into a snake or smth lmao
I love all of these silly guys. They look powerful and charming. Love how we have multiple old men.
Some signature abilities…
Sculptimber; Puppeteer
It gets Parental Bond when it has a substitute up
Prismini; Refraction
In Sun, it gets a special attack boost, and in Rain or Hail, it gets a speed boost
Lethalaman; Rabid Poison
All Pokémon poisoned on the field take Toxic poison instead of regular poison, but get boosts to attack and defense while poisoned
Centuroar; Apathy
Immune to all forms of passive damage, and heals 1/4th of its HP on the recharge or powering up of an attack like Hyper Beam or Solar Beam respectively.
Sculptimber would look perfect for a grass version of one of the Regi's!
It would probably have to be renamed to Regimber
Draw a Periodic Table of Elements as Pokemon:
Titanium
Uranium
Nitrogen (or Liquid Nitrogen)
etc.
this could be so cool
Imagine if all 118 elements were Pokémon types and they all had type advantages and disadvantages over each other O_O
Uranium already exists, even if it's a fakemon.
It's name is Urayne, and it's Nuclear type.
Go play Pokemon Uranium, trust me.
You will NOT be disappointed!
I'm impressed by how much your art skills have evolved over time. Each fakemon on this batch looked normal but refined, while also making me wonder how they would look animated in the game. The lore for each of them is something I could totally see in canon, and I liked how you were careful to respect the lore of the legendary they are inspired by. To me, Arceus would retain it's mysterious presence as a god even if in canon it would sometimes hide as an aplaca to watch over people. Great work!
Also unrelated but Prismini is lovely, such a cute angy thing
I think sculptimber should be a grass dark type because it’s based off of a puppeteer, their whole deal is that they manipulate their creations, manipulation sounds like a lot like something a dark type Pokémon would do. Just throwing it out there.
I love every single one of these and their detailed descriptions and lore. Really great job, they fit the pokémon world so well that they could easily be official pokémon. Can't wait to check out more!
I like how you still connect these watered down mons with their legendary counterparts
Ok, I just thought of prismini evolving into a de-legended ultra necrozma that protects prismini and that idea just sounds awesome
Also amazing designs for all these guys
I think Eturnitus is a paradox pokemon bc Eturnitus was suppose to come back 1000 years after the events of sword and shield but was brought back too soon, thus its future looking form
Ron I watch all your videos and really enjoy a lot of them. This one blows me away. You are, without a doubt, the GOAT of hitting on a perfect pokemon concept. Not only do you have an idea of what a cool pokemon could look like, but you pair it with an incredible story every time, which both makes your design memorable and, I'm sure, more meaningful to create in the first place. Really splendidly done, not everyone has those chops.
Imagine some simple farmey lady herding Alpaceus and she gets tired and decides to just hitch a ride on the one in front. They form a very strong bond which others find a bit concerning given she starts claiming it speaks to her. Lo and behold, she's become best friends with god and he's just having too much fun blending in to go back to his true form because he's being treated normal instead of put up on a pedestal with everyone kissing his feet.
Idk why I love Sculptimber so much, maybe it’s how friendly and Ghibli it looks 💚
"Prismini are born completely clear" yeah that's the sort of dex writing that bites you in the ass the second you hatch an egg
amazing!!! you’re so talented!! You’re illustrations were top tier! Def would love to see this as a series!
Is this a Mandela effect, or did Furfrou have a hairstyle based on Arceus? Also, I absolutely love Lethalaman's design. Would love to have one as a Pokemon partner.
Mandela effect
Mandela effect.
There was an Arceus-esque haircut in the anime, but not in the games.
Mandela effect... So that's how they now call making things up and misremembering lol
There was a very brief moment in the anime where it did.
Man you never disappoint with these! I couldn't come up with a criticism to one of these if I even wanted to these are just fantastic (I wonder what a non-legendary Zekrom would look like...)
My comments:
1. I feel like you could have done more with the green dot on Alpaceus' cheek. Give it a function or make it part of a subtle pattern perhaps.
2. Centuroar seems a bit to big. I would say it should be somewhere between 6 and 8 feet instead. Pokémon are generally not as big as they look. (Charizard, Dragonite, Kabutops, Torterra).
3. Lethalamander looks like a better concieved version of Druddigon. Smoother and less clunky. Also a bit too big, but awesome design. Could perhaps be the male counterpart to Salazzle.
4. Sculptimber looks more like a puppet itself than a puppeteer. Perhaps if there was something string-like somewhere in the design to show it's the master of other puppets?
5. Prismini, are the hands rigidly attached to the arms, or does it have wrists to move the hands independently? How does it keep it's balance on those feet? I'd like asnwers to those questions.
All very enjoyable redesigns, one of the most interesting videos you've done.
This was really interesting and fun to watch. I think you came up with some great concepts and executed the designs well while still keeping some of the original inspiration. I hope this becomes a series!
Man. There are a lot of great fakemon artists out there and all, but I really am delighted and stunned by just how well you capture the style and feeling of real Pokemon. A lot of times, designs are beautifully drawn but look like they'd be more at home in other settings, or they end up really similar to existing Pokemon and don't shine on their own. WHICH??? Makes this video even more baffling given staying similar to existing ones was entirely the point, but you still managed to make every one of them look unique and entirely Like Pokemon.
I could imagine running into any one of them in-game. Obviously Eternatus was the design that changed most, but with the others, I could absolutely imagine all of them as a Carbink / Diancie type relation too. Like you can see similarities between Carbink and Diancie and easily see how Diancie relates back to it as a sort of ascended-to-godhood form, but there's still a ton of difference and Carbink looks solid as its own stand-alone species too, it doesn't look like it exists to become Diancie. You captured that vibe in all of them other than Eternatus, and Lethalaman is just its own brand of awesome that works really well for the different angle you took. It would look especially at home next to Toxtricity and Druddigon, yet doesn't look redundant with either.
Amazing work, genuinely!
Prismini is the only one I'm kind sketchy on because as you said in the intro, you weren't trying to make these Pokemon look like cute baby Pokemon or pre-evolutions. But that's exactly what it looks like. The others looked like completely basic Pokemon versions of their counterparts as you intended and they were all fantastic. I especially like how Centuroar and Lethalaman turned out. But with Prismini I just see baby Necrozma.
Necrozma is legit just "black crystal that is slightly humanoid" so you don't have much to work with, as opposed to others like Eternatus where it looks like a skeleton.
Once again, you knock it outta the park with your designs 👏🏼 I absolutely Love Sculptimber, Centuroar, and Lethalaman, they really capture the original regular pkmn that allude to a legendary pkmn energy that this video is going for-not to mention they're just wicked cool concepts and executions in general AHH !! Wonderful job TG
Lethaluman getting stripped to bone is a thing that I don’t want to imagine
I love these! They almost feel more lile Pokémon than their originals!
I saw so many pics of this trend on twitter that I didn't even realize you HADN'T done this yet.
Always look forward to these challenge videos, Ron! Keep it up!
Alpaceus and Prismini are so cool, all your creations feel like they could have existed but I would be eager to play with these previous ones 🤩 good job, I wanna see more of that, you're so talented !
You nailed all of these, we need more :)
Great video as always! I loved the arceus one!
i love sculptimber its so weird and eerie looking but the goofy leaf mustache beard makes it look somewhat friendly
This is the first of your videos that I've come across and gat dayum I love this concept!! So much talent, definitely will be watching more of your videos!
Makes my day when Truegreen7 posts a video:)
4:27
Herder: *forgets to feed them*
Herder: Wait a minute... Crap! I gotta go feed them!
Herder: Here you go guys, sorry for forgetting!
Alpaceus: *transforms*
Arceus: How dare you. Face my judgement, foolish mortal.
Herder: Wait noooooo
I liked the designs especially for dialga. I also liked regigigas design and how you made it have a mustache in the redesign
I love Sculptimber!!! I find it creepiest out of all of them in this video, but that's also why I love it!! I also love Alpaceus! It's so cute and fluffy!!!

How was this comment one day ago if the video was made 1 hour ago?
@@RandomShortsMakerLOL idk
Hey @truegreen7 i found you in the comments of pokemon talk.... Multiple times +2 respect
Ahhhh, they are so amazing=3 I need a whole farm of Alpaceus! Different colours too=3 I want to befriend Sculptimber and Prismini=) What an awesome episode, You are so talented=3
I like to imagine Sculptimber backstory being an ancient artisan, totally not leonardo da vinci or gepetto, seeing regigigas in the distance and getting inspired to make Sculptimber to show what he had seen, but the puppet got brought to life by regigigas, seeing it and looking flattered, but not making it as powerfull as the other regis
2:35 "a lama stuck in a fence" I will never see them the same again 😂😂😂
Really love these. Altho Lethalaman looks so different from Eternetus that I i wouldn't have ever guessed their relationship. But regardless, it's still a beautiful Fakemon.
It's funny, back in Gen 1 I thought that the Legendary Birds were unique mutations of Spearows/Fearows.
While watching sculptimber, i was thinking for the name, something like hedgepetto. Since hes made of wood like Pinocchio, and is also a puppeteer. Still love it though
Okay had to comment again because every single Pokémon concept in this is perfect!! So well thought out and designed!
Imagine having an alpaca farm an always having this thought in your head "Am I feeding god right now?"
alpaceus takes the meaning of "The lord is my shepherd" to a different level
Lethalamon gives me drudiggon vibes and I love it
i love the digimon this guy consistently creates! you're really good at capturing the digimon bighead little body design, the chibi non pokemon at all look is cute
I feel like alpaceus could have been spelt allpaceus, to give it another reference to arceus with "all packing god" as the idea
I think Alpacaeus should have kept the wheel, but turned it into an actual fence. When a herd of Alpacaeus all sit down next to each other, it's nearly impossible to get past to what they're trying to protect.
"They are constantly getting stuck in fences. Smart farmers don't remove them, knowing they will just get stuck again"
@@elainegoates9792 EXACTLY!!
You have such a good grasp of the do’s and don’t of designing, and how to convey a concept correctly… I’m super impressed. Call me a fan. Subbed.
I think Sculptimber was my fave! Its complicated enough to clearly be related to Regigigas while being simple enpugh to fit the prompt, and to look like a real pokemon
For Leathalaman:
Another thing with fossil restoration and stuff (Reconstructing from bones) is that people for hundreds of years didn't realize dinosaurs had feathers. Leathalaman gives me the vibe it needs feathers and is based off of a salamander, right? The axolotl is a type of salamander that had feathers, and is associated with regeneration (Which I feel would be some nice irony) but while they're associated with regeneration, they will eat each other and are at heart, predators. That and we have no axolotl pokemon, I think it would be cool
Also love how Leathalaman's shiny is literally the same colouring as the galarian zigzagoon line
This concept reminds me a LOT on how breeding a Manaphy (Legendary) will result in a Phione (Not Legendary).
Both of them are mythical though?
@@Garden_Warfare_Gaming Technically, both are considered mythical for post 4th gen in game postgame battle facilities and online battles.
However, Phione can be bred an unlimited number of times and has a much smaller base stat total (480 vs Manaphy's 600), so I tend to consider it more "mundane" than "mythical".
I must admit that Normal type is not simply "no type". The evolution Pokémon Eevee is normal, Ditto who changes its shape is normal, Regigigas, the boss of Regies is normal, and the god of Pokémon Arceus is normal as well. This is the "can be anything" type in the Pokémon franchise!
This was fantastic, please make this a series
I love sculptimber not only because of the unique concept but the fact that I originally interpreted the moustache as some sort of boa or the fluff on a posh jacket, I am a sucker for Pokemon where you can just interpret things completely differently that still works with the Pokemon
Love Centuroar! I do think Prismini is a bit too much like Adoluscent from your Asone Region, but it's still a nice design!
Sculptimber is sooooooo cool!!! Such a different concept that fits so well!!! Genius!!
Sculptimber is easily my favourite out of this batch- Fantastic execution on the whole concept! 🤘
“I’m not gonna make pre-evolved forms”
Prismini:
These versions of the Pokemon kinda seem like normal versions of paradox pokemon as well. Like for example, Great Tusk and Donphan, where the Official Legendary here seems like the Paradox version of Ron's designs.
I love them all but prismini and sculptimber are my favourites! Amazing video Ron.
I loved this video! Seeing a region with any of these has such fun lore potential.
Theory: you put a diamond in Centuroar's chest and you get a Dialga. A sort of heart of Te Fiti scenario from Moana
I like to think that Prismini is the result of Necrozma getting stuck on Earth millions of years ago, and a species of Pokémon saw how powerful it was and, slowly over the millennia, evolved to look like and have similar abilities to Necrozma to be able to defend themselves.
I’d imagine that if Prismini evolved into Necrosma, the idea for it’s evolution line would be a hero living long enough to be the villain. Like, Prismini would be loner who would help those in need, putting people and Pokémon before itself. Prismini would evolve into its second evolution and would be more of an anti-hero, doing whatever it wants, helping those who would give back to it, it would also use a new found ability to drain the light of its opponents rarely. And the final stage would be Necrosma, who doesn’t care for anything other than draining the light of all the universes that exist, fully becoming a villain.
I think a cool signature move for Sculptimber would be a new substitute which takes three hits to remove, regardless of damage. Three representing the original 3 regis, because 5 would be a little broken. Maybe the substitute takes 33% of his health instead of 50%. And with woodworker boosting his grass substitute's priority, he could use slower moves the next turn since he has a substitute up. Other options might include having the substitute add grassy terrain or sunny day.
