As an artist how do you make pokemon crossbreeds? since I am thinking about making some.

Thanks for asking! I'd love an excuse to talk about the process.

1. I find the pokemon I want to make a crossbreed of. I have a full Google docs list to keep track of names and ones I want to do and all of that, since a lot of the fun for me I'd coming up with names for them

2. 99% of the time, the art is traced. I used to draw earlier crossbreeds freely, but they were supposed to be quick design practice and I would end up spending too long on them, so I started tracing them

3. I love crossbreed art, and while I don't want to throw anyone under the bus, I always felt like a lot of the crossbreeds felt "too-fusion like." What I try my best to do is find small traits to fit in with the existing design, while not changing it too much. While I sometimes let go of that for the sake of fun (when I made the slurpuff and raochu crossbreed), I usually keep that ruleset. An example would be this Cadenza Lapras (primarina father)

Lapras already has spikes, so to make it look more like Primarina, I made them sharper, like the spikes on Primarina's tail. It also has a more pointed snout, like Primarina.

And this sprinting scorbunny too (yamper father). While a dog and rabbit aren't that similar, both yamper and scorbunny have the same yellow, pointed ears, eyes, and other similar features. So, I made the scorbunny's fluff connect like yamper, gave it the paw markings of yamper, turned its tail into that of yamper, and made it stick its tongue out like yamper.

I recommend keeping the color scheme similar, but that can be difficult when they have wildly different color schemes. What I try to do then to make up for it is add more traits of the father pokemon, so whole it looks similar at first glance, you can tell it's different. I did that with Clanging Noivern (jangmo-o father)

If the pokemon seems too different, they finding smaller traits to use. Right now, I'm making a Gastrodon with a Phantump father and they seemed hard, but I was able to find similar traits; such as the wisps in the designs and making their shell look like a tree a bit.

4. Other than that, process follows art stuff. Sketch over the official art to add differing traits, and then outline it in black. My outlines are messy since again, these are more breaks for my other art (I have an Instagram where I post some of my art btw, I don't post much art on my main tumblr), but outline whatever way you want

5. Do what you want! These are just the rules I follow that I made for myself! These are just supposed to be fun stuff and shouldn't be polices

6. Send me the crossbreeds. I want to see them

7. Hope these helped! I'm not the best at explaining my art process

Kinda curious whats everyone’s first Pokémon game? Personally mine was Sun

If it’s a spin-off not listed specify in the reblogs what it was, also some fun additional questions:

Do you still play the games?

Are you still active in the fandom?

What starter did you pick from said game?

This Doduo’s trainer refers to their mon as ‘they’ in more ways than one! This doduo is intersex, the only thing that sets them apart visually are their differently colored necks, outside of that each head has a pretty similar temperament. The male half they named Andy and the female they call Anne! I usually don’t ask to take photos of patients when they discharge, but I was so excited to see a fellow nonbinary icon I couldn’t help myself. (They were just in for a sprained knee, after some PT they’re just needing to wear a knee brace for a bit, so all is well!)

Hey! It's me, Ash Ketchum! You may have heard of me, since I've participated in tons of league tournaments in almost every region (I've only won one, but all of them were really fun, so I don't really mind). Anyway, that was a few years ago.

For the past couple years, I've been at home with my mom, helping her out. Turns out while she was gone, she started dating Jessie from Team Rocket, which is weird, but Jessie (and James and Meowth) quit Team Rocket and she's actually a really good person now. She makes Mom really happy, so I'm happy too!

Anyway, fourteen and I'm ready for more adventure, so I started attending Blueberry Academy! It's a really cool school, and even the classes aren't that boring! I can't wait to make a lot of new friends here! Right now, I only have Pikachu with me, but there's so many new Pokemon here that I can't wait to meet!

//OOC under cut

Hey, it's Xander from @mira-annabelles-poke-kitchen and @sunny-xander-ooc back at it with another blog. I'm genuinely surprised there aren't more Ash’s on here, he's fun as hell. I'm not a minor, but Ash is, so don't be weird. He's baby.

I'm basing this off of @yamujiburo's because it's funny and I love lesbians. Also, Ash is aroace because I said so.

Took my friend's Growlithe on a walk for them, since they were pretty busy today!! Here are some pictures I took :]

[cross-poisoned]

IT HATCHED THE SURSKIT HATCHED—

HI LITTLE GUY!!! Welcome to the world,,,

It's shiny too like wth— did anon know?? Ack. The heat wave in Paldea is still going strong so I've turned the bathroom of my dorm into a little surskit-zone with a humidifier and cool air so it doesn't overheat or dehydrate.

It is also REALLY small. Surskit aren't normally the size of my hand?? Why is it so small... what do I feed you? I think nectar for now that's what sligoogle says but I'm trying to get a vet appointment for this lil guy,,

I've named her jellybean,,,

[historianofgalar]

When asking to be mates, members of the Gardevoir line will get down on one knee.

The practice also influenced a lot of marriage proposals traditions today. In old Hoenn and Galar, many knights would have Gardevoir and Gallade with them, and the two would court each other like this. The knights would mimic them when proposing to their partners, which quickly spread between the regions and other parts of the world.

How to Pet each Eeveelution

eevee: everywhere. forehead scritchies for SURE. get your hands in the fluffy mane and tail and you know the belly is fluffy too

jolteon: dont hurt yourself on the spines! it dislikes its paws being touched so i would scratch its face and ears and under the chin for optimal pets

flareon: extremely fluffy, long fur but if you pet it for too long it may get too hot so pat it gently and lightly to avoid burning your hands

umbreon: very short fur (OOC: similar to a horse) doesnt like pets on its ears or tail. back is most optimal for pets

leafeon: be very gentle if petting on the leaves! otherwise pets and scratches like a dog are acceptable everywhere else . might enjoy a belly rub.

sylveon: pet downwards like a cat. gentle face scritches acceptable. you can hold its ribbons gently like a paw if you would like (it will be able to sense your emotions if you touch its ribbons)

glaceon: dont pet for too long lest you freeze your hands! the tail, crest, and paws are colder than the main body so avoid petting there, light short pets on the back and head are acceptable. very smooth body (OOC: similar to a seal.)

espeon: VERY fine short fur almost like peach fuzz, does not enjoy being pet for too long but you may pet/rub its face and ears (avoid touching its gem) and it might enjoy a belly rub if it trusts you

vaporeon: will make a wet slap like slapping a slime if you pat it. has a tendency to melt slightly if very contented with petting. has a smooth body like a seal and can be pet anywhere that isnt fins (ears included). gently slapping its back or belly is very funny would recommend
