No reference? No problem. Watch as I stumble my way through the Pokédex drawing pokemon from memory

Definitely not the sketch I used for hakamo-o, no siree……
#997#arctibax#pokemon from memory#It’s actually it’s own original sketch#But I am recalling at the time of writing that the sketch I did for the aforementioned dragon was VERY similar#Whoopsies#middle evo pseudolegendary dragon disease#Also looking at the official art now#I have never seen this man in my life

Fat frozen treecko
#996#frigibax#pokemon from memory#I’ve made such a post on my main but LOOK AT IT#This thing always registers as a strange treecko to me#It’s even got something like grovyle’s arm leaves#Although the actual one only has one on each arm not two#Also looking at the pokedex entry it feels like spiritually similar to gible#Shape-wise and it’s got a dorsal fin#Some kind of land shark

We already had an iron thorns, it’s name? Ferrothorn
#995#iron thorns#pokemon from memory#I actually thought this was a ferrothorn one for a split second#And then remembered tyranirar in fact had a paradox form#Looking through the pokedex entries for fun things to say#This guy is from one BILLION years in the future#Also 5’03”#Short king

Swiss cheese looking wings
#994#iron moth#pokemon from memory#The real one is actually quite cool looking!#I know I was bitching about future paradox forms#But this one I like#Mostly bc it’s volcarona my friend volcarona#If anyone deserves two paradox forms it’s this bug

When a hydreigon and a robot love each other very much…….
#993#iron jugulis#pokemon from memory#Taken straight from the pokedex my friends#Hydreigon banged a robot and out came this thing#Why did they….take that angle#That’s such an odd thing to say#Also I think it’s cool that the extra heads are actually detached#Like it can send them off to cause havoc at will

These hands are rated E for everyone
#992#iron hands#pokemon from memory#It only has three fingers I’m sorry#Have him those weird flattened dusknoir hands#Also apparently it was “modeled off a famous athlete”#That’s kind of rude#Reminds me of that one NPC in I think BW#“Oh you and ur pokemon look so similar!”#That’s….pretty offensive for most pokemon you could have on hand#Like yes I like volcarona I think it looks cool#Do I as a human person want to look like one?#Not really

Ancient gift giving robot
#991#iron bundle#pokemon from memory#Ok wait I’m confused now#So I figured violet’s robo pokemon were supposed to be “futuristic”#But it’s pokedex entry references it being from an “ancient” civilization?#The scarvi paradox lore is in shambles#I have no idea what’s going on

Gee donphan why do you get TWO paradox forms?
#990#iron treads#pokemon from memory#The real thing looks more like a donphan/shelgon fusion imo#Very round and the face screen is embedded in the body#Also I’m gonna go off for a sec since this is the first “future” paradox pokemon of the list#I feel overall that the past forms were a bit stronger#It’s interesting to see a “prehistoric” version of existing pokemon!#And they did the designs very creatively sometimes#Like it raises the question of what I like to consider in the pokemon universe as “macro evolution”#Ie. evolution akin to what we have irl where creatures change over millions of years#As opposed to what I consider as pokemon’s “micro evolution”#= the evolution of an individual across their own lifetime and as determined by their species#But anyway yeah I thought the past versions were a bit more interesting#Vs the future versions of “what if pokemon was a robot?”#And that was really cool for some of them#Like iron valiant which had the creative twist of being a gardevoir/gallade fusion thing#But the others are just…idk#They feel a bit weak conceptually#Maybe if they were like. Made to fill a specific niche?#Or showing how a species might evolve in the future?#Like….idk after being integrated with our technology in various ways how might an organism like rotom change?#Or a porygon Z becoming something more than a virus infected porygon 2 if left unchecked? Or if “fixed”?#What if a solosis one day got a separate organism integrated into its cytosol and evolved into a different organism?#(something like the endosymbiotic theory with mitochondria?)#Like there’s so many ways to explore “pokemon of the future” without it necessarily being “robot”#And it feels like something of a missed opportunity#Especially since some “present day” pokemon are already robot-coded#Anyway. Long tangent for the funny robo elephant pokemon

he likes to be tall
#989#sandy shocks#pokemon from memory#I’ve never actually LOOKED at this pokemon properly#But looking at it now it’s kinda cool!#Interesting how they made the markings on the top one look like a face#Also the iron filaments gathered on the magnets#Which I feel like is something they've done with several designs over the years but yknow what?#It looks cool

The new and improved volcarona
#988#slither wing#pokemon from memory#Or rather old and improved#Anyway I love this thing#Volcarona was already one of my faves#But this version is just *chef’s kiss*#Really upped the creature element#Would love to hug one it’s so fluffy#Gonna go off on another evolution rant but would’ve been cool if paradox forms had evolution chains#Like would love a little baby ancient larvesta#Or idk a robotic ralts#I’m not super familiar with the lore of paradox forms but from what I’ve seen they’re just their own guys

Everything mismagius wishes she could be
#987#flutter mane#pokemon from memory#I just love how much of a bastard it looks#You KNOW this thing is mischievous#Also didn’t know there’s spikes running down the middle of its head#Very nice#anyway probably one of my favorite paradox pokemon#Along with slither wing and iron valiant

Had an edgy phase I see
#986#brute bonnet#pokemon from memory#Now THIS is a mushroom#Looking now and I see it’s got four legs and a tail too#And some spiky teeth#Not a big amoonguss fan but this is genuinely cool looking

Somehow I don’t think this one’s song will put anyone to sleep
#985#scream tail#pokemon from memory#Very cool paradox pkmn#Also saw a pic from the anime and it’s big!#I guess it’s maybe instead of jiggly puff AND wigglytuff#Like maybe it would’ve just hatched little and then physically grown#Instead of “evolving” since non of the paradox forms evolve

Donphan’s edgy ancestor
#984#great tusk#pokemon from memory#Now I haven’t played scarvi so I’m not 100% sure if the “paradox pokemon” are like#Just regular past/future versions of existing pokemon#Or if they’re meant to be from a different timeline altogether#If anyone knows and wants to share I’d love to know :3#Also gonna go on another aside#Not a big fan of the naming scheme of these#Why don’t they just get regular names?#Like….great tusk sounds more like a species designation than a name#Idk it just feels weird to me#Also was going through my queue and saw this originally said “Donovan’s edgy cousin”#And somehow just didn’t notice lol

Come, have a seat
#983#kingambit#pokemon from memory#Hell yeah I remembered this guy was somehow sitting#….and that’s about it#There’s so much detail on the actual body#Here he’s just a horrid little homunculus#Also bisharp evolution#Bisharp didn’t really strike me as having middle evo energy#Honestly felt the line was good with just the two of them#Maybe I’m just old#”back in my day we didn’t have all these newfangled evolutions”#“You evolved your pawniard into bisharp and liked it”#This must have been how some earlier fans felt when gen 4 came out#I of course entered the world of pokemon in gen 4 so it was all normal to me#Ambipom. Dusknoir. Magnezone.#These were all names and faces that I had learned as always belonging#Whereas for older fans they must have felt new and foreign#perhaps like interlopers#But now I am an “older pokemon fan”#Not like gen 1 old#But gen 4 is nearer the start then where we’re at now

New and improved, longer than ever before
#982#dudunsparce#dudunsparce three -segment form#pokemon from memory#Not much difference from the last one#Apparently this thing is over 14’ long tho#Jesus#thats certainly an animal#Pokemon sizes are always weird to me#Bc they’ll say one thing show another in the anime and show a third in the games#They’re not terribly consistent#Which I guess is good bc then you can just ignore it and make your own headcanons lol

The legend!
#982#dudunsparce#dudunsparce two-segment form#pokemon from memory#I’m actually not a massive dunsparce fan#Like it’s alright#It just never really ~spoke~ to me yknow#But I know there are a lot of fans#So they get a win with this one#Nice to get the extra attention with an added evo
