Another Kirstrian regional fakemon, Druddigon! Druddigon should have always been a Rock type in my opinion, and the Slovenian caves full of minerals make for a great crystal-based design. Have fun theorizing about the lore with this one!

Digimon OC - Plant Line 💚 commission to @ F

the grass starter of the Bunoa region

it is based on an elephant, the animal nathans character was originally gonna be before julia banned animal people. the baloon elephant in the reference images didnt really factor into the design but i liked looking at it while drawing. i used the communication box elephant as the primary inspiration, since in the video they said if you put a bush on an elephant its basically a pokemon. i extended it to also include mud, since animals irl do really use mud to protect them from the sun. which gave me the idea of the trunk being like a flower shaped watering can, which gave me the idea of giving it a water move. it just so happened that idea worked with the other two's concepts as well.

i still need to work on the colors and shapes of them but im really happy with the first evo. i showed it to my mom and she loved it so that gives me confidence.

Bokedex entry:

[name] the shrub elephant bokemon

this bokemon will never forget you or anyone else. it is a kind, caring and loving creature that easily befriends everyone it meets. it uses its ears to identify people and bokemon by their footsteps, and jumps in happiness when someone it likes approaches.

[name] the bush elephant bokemon

evolves from [name] at level 15

the bush like foliage on its back protects it from the heat. if it needs further cooling down, it will use its flower-like trunk to suck up mud and spray it on its back.

[name] the mud spray bokemon

evolves from [name] at level 36

the petals on its long trunk helps spread the muddy water it sprays on itself and enemies. when sprayed on the ground, the nutrient rich mud will fertilize even the dryest of deserts and beautiful foliage will sprout.

My piece for the @seaunseenzine , a zine that explore the marine ecossystem! This zine, for me, as a future biologist, is everything, so many amazing arts of amazing creatures that we don't see often!

My piece is a Pelagia Noctiluca, a pink jellyfish with spots that I love, specially that I've been studying jellyfish this semester hehe.

You can buy the zine here and all of the procedings will go to the Australian Marine Conservation Society, a registered, top-rated charity protecting the Great Barrier Reef and other marine habitats across the Australian continent. If you're interested in marine biology and art, this zine is for you!
