Gen VII Pokemon (No Spoilers)
2 min read
So when the first main batches of Gen VII Pokemon were revealed I remember being slightly underwhelmed by some of the designs
To be honest, I still stand that some designs are a little off, but I've learned to really appreciate - what I think - is the new angle Gamefreak took to designing the new batch.
One thing in particular I really appreciate is the amount of personality and character each one has - and the official descriptions on the Pokemon website (which are much more extensive than the generic in-game Pokedex entries) showcase how fleshed out each of these Pokemon are with regards to their personality, their behaviour and their roles within nature
I still have my old favourites like Lapras and Drifblim which have perfectly fine designs, but now I like the extra steps taken by the designers to invest the new Pokemon with memorable personalities and characters.
I guess it's given me less of a focus on designing pretty Fakemon
I've also noticed I haven't uploaded a new Fakemon in five months... so hopefully that should change some time
Happy Halloween

Tenjoh finished!
1 min read
So with the three uploads today, I've finally finished uploading all 116 fakemon in the Tenjoh Dex as well as all the characters!
It's pretty funny seeing an old journal of mine dated November 2014 where I celebrated uploading 74... at least I got there in the end.
Thanks a lot for all the feedback, I really appreciate it. I think I'll carry on going back here and there updating some of the designs which need some love.
I've got lots of work on now, but I'll hopefully be back soon to crack on with finishing the Ovaro Dex.
Thanks again

Wahoo

So I didn't intend to upload this much today but I couldn't stop drawing (which was especially convenient given the amount of work I need to do) and I couldn't wait
However at this point I've uploaded 102/116 of the Tenjoh Dex, which is a point which I thought I'd never reach so I'm pretty happy! Now it's just the final straight with some pesky pseudo-legends/legendaries to do
Thanks as ever for the watches, faves and kind words, I didn't think my colourless lined paper sketches would be so warmly received
Ciaaaooo

Mass Update
1 min read
Mass update.
I decided to stop faffing around with gradual reveals and just upload a lot of spare stuff I had.
Although I've yet to finish uploading fakemon from my first region, this new batch introduces the second region/pokedex I designed: the Ovaro dex.
The Ovaro region has more American influences, and the dex itself was largely inspired by the fifth generation and was essentially a test to myself to see if I could make a Pokedex without any cross-gen references.
As ever, thanks for all the comments, watches and favourites
