I feel like it's probably Guzma, but Ghetsis is from the Pokemon equivalent of NYC. He doesn't swear when he's acting as a public speaker in the original BW, but in private and when he has no need to hide his true nature in B2W2, HOO BOY...😵‍💫

(I feel Penny can also surprisingly have a bit of a mouth on her, she's a gamer. Maybe not full-on rage, but we've almost all had the experience of a certain level or boss getting on our last nerve 😂)

(Volo, it might be internal. But you know there was a steady stream of expletives going thru his head when he was dealing with Arceus's chosen protagonist.)

Edit: in hindsight, I feel this probably would have been more interesting without Guzma 😅

What happened to the villains after the events of their respecting chapters?

Pokémon SPECIAL Archie, Maxie, and Faba

I’m finally finished lol, having so much free time feels so unreal especially when your siblings are still working on their exams. Anyways, some clearer look on the art and explanation under the cut 👇

Forgive me for any inaccuracies to the pokespe lore, i haven’t read the DPP and Sun and Moon arcs

After the events of Ruby and Sapphire arc, Maxie and Archie died but somehow their soul still lingers but it can also die or whatever.. what’s important is that after they die, their soul moved to the distortion world instead of whatever layer of hell they’re supposed to go to. My hc is that the longer you stay in the distortion world, your body slowly shuts of its own function because it realized that you don’t need it anymore.

The one i want to focus most is the loss of sight. Since the distortion world is dim, you can’t see anything so you slowly lose your sight the longer you stay there.

Here’s my hc bla bla bla, the only reason Archies vision isn’t completely fucked is because he still wants to see Maxie. In the distortion world, Maxie spends his time trying to imagine his team and all the happy memories he has before he fully loses his ability to see, while Archie spends his time being crushed by guilt. The events of ORAS doesn’t exist here because you both don’t deserve redemption arcs you bundle if sticks

For Faba

Yeah he’s dead. He also can’t go to hell because his body is stuck in another dimension.

"Evidence that Pokémon once familiar to us have been spotted in the various dimensions linked together by Ultra Space, in the same way that Ultra Beasts have been spotted in our own dimension. Upon falling through an Ultra Wormhole, these Pokemon become bathed in a strange energy that seems to facilitate rapid changes and adaptations needed to survive in their new environments, among other speculated effects. We have dubbed them "dimensional forms," though internally we use the code name "ultra variant," or "UV" for short."

-Aether Report excerpt

It seems that when exposed to the bizarre lands of Ultra Space, Eevee's evolutions take on new forms. I wonder what other strange forms we have yet to see! More info coming soon!

*More detailed lore later, but as a brief explanation on each one's inspirations:

-Vaporeon: polluted water, plastic debris and its impact on animals, mutations, oil and water don't mix

-Jolteon: overcharged long boi, they run through the skies and leave lightning trails behind them

-Flareon: explosive smoke cloud and shrapnel

-Umbreon: black holes and new moons because of Ultra Megalopolis's darkness theme

-Espeon: wise and (slightly) wrinkly sphynx cat with a 3rd eye

-Leafeon: bulky and ferocious tiger, stripes inspired by beta Leafeon

-Glaceon: bleached coral and asymmetry

-Sylveon: shinto shrine maidens and shide (zigzag paper streamers)

i'm sure usum is great and all (only played the originals) but i hear these guys are much less freaky and weird in it and i can't be having that

Sun and Moon (the Pokémon games lol) have always been my favorite in the series so I wanted to make designs for Sun and Moon (the daycare attendants) based off of Team skull and the aether foundation. I imagine Moon would’ve been a sort of “gift” to team skull from the aether foundation. They were both made for taking care of Lily and Gladion, so once gladion joined team skull I’d think Lusamine would wanna keep an eye on him through Moon. I have a bunch of other thoughts on it (like their teams and stuff) but this is all the Art I’ve done for it so far :]

I also added spray painted + sunhinged versions

Also tried to mimic the Pokémon shading style but I’m not to sure how successful that was :/

I think moon would be especially empathetic towards the young teens who would join team skull. They remind him of Lily and Gladion, and eventually once the aether foundation collapses him and Sun would still try to be there for them.

An early trailer/concept pitch for SM.

Various ridemon concept art! (I know Magnezone made it into the anime.)

Settei for a couple of the UBs and Necrozma!

And early concept art for SM + the Altar of the Sunne!

Edit: Lusamine's room art and she has a fucking Gyarados up there? Girl.

Also, potentially RR could have been intended for SM. OR USUM was in development too by that point. This concept art of Ghetsis is from 2015.

"To assist with their work, employees will be supplied a starter Ultra Beast from the Ultra Recon Squad. Pictured are the Poison-type UB Adhesive, the Ground-type UB Tectonic, and the Grass-type UB Luminant."

-Aether Report excerpt

More info to come! But for now, which of these 3 will you choose, dear employee? (I promise I won't take it personally if you like Poipole over my designs lmao)

Attack for @liegelogan's Masayu. I love her...

[spittyfishy]

Love when the Pokémon character is the child of the main antagonist, 10/10 trope
