Will probably do a follow up vid at some point! If there are any designs I didn’t finish that you’d like to see polished in part two, let me know!

The road blocking bear should be called Bearicade, bear and barricade for the pokemon at 11:17

7:17. You cannot. CANNOT tell me. That the Pokémon company would not make a Dragon/Normal Raccoon Dragon Pokémon called Dracoon.

I think you undersell your designs a lot, while yes, all of them could use some more time, that proves the point that 30$ is an offensive amount of money to offer for 151 designs. I think your natural creativity really shows! Like, you may not have liked the squiggly one, 85, but I love it. I can imagine it twisting itself into different shapes to show its emotions, like a heart, a star, or a straight line when shocked!

The box art Legendaries could be servants or retainers to the Mythical who were sealed as statues until they are needed by their king once again

This has a stronger Gen-1 vibe than any other Fakemon region ever, to be honest. Pulling inspiration from everywhere all at once and making lots of little guys that make you say "that's nothing if not a Pokemon, because literally what animal would it be", just as Kanto feels for me. I think you should embrace the stream-of-consciousness weirdness and make this a fully-fledged region! Though, do touch ups wherever you feel like they're needed of course.

I think this is the most fun I’ve ever had watching a Fakemon video. Also, nothing wrong with the ones that aren’t “based” on anything. We need more of those.

I think Foebaa would be a good name for the final evolution of the “evil mammal” @3:54, it has the word “foe” for the dark typing, which can also be interpreted as “faux” since it is disguising itself as a sheep, “baa” for the sheep inspiration, and together it almost sounds like “faux pas”, so you could even work that in to its personality!

I think the story behind the mythical is that a mage cast a spell on the king and turned him into a gremlin, he was so filled with shame that he ran away. His two sons/the box arts became so filled with grief that they asked the mage to take away their pain by turning them into Pokémon so they can find their father(they did not know that their father got turned into a Pokémon or that the mage did it btw) so the brothers became Pokémon then fought over their ideals and how to find their father, so they traveled the world looking for him all by themselves

This is one of the coolest videos i’ve seen on youtube! Like seriously what an idea!

Really interesting approach to design. I think you are actually way closer to the earlier Pokémon designs (generations) than later generations or other fakemons. No big concepts to follow, not trying to insert too much logics, just some cool or cute monsters with special features that make them stick out for their typings. I’m amazed, the result is great. Would love to see all of them fleshed out

Personally, I prefer it when the pokemon dont really reflect a certain region. it gives it a Gen 1-3 vibe where they just take inspiration from anything. I also really like it when you cant really tell what animal or thing a pokemon is based on (chansey, slowbro, flittle, glimmora) or just generic monsters (nidos, rhydon, aggron)

If you have trouble with Pokemon names, just go binge a bunch of Lockstin videos. That's where my love of etymology comes from. 😊

This kinda feels like an awesome character design exercise! Just leaves you with the most important parts of each design cuz there was no time for extra details or overthinking!

To cut down on the number of dog pokemon, what if that "wolf in sheep's clothing" mon was actually a sheep this whole time? Maybe it's big claws could be made entirely out of wool or something and it could instead be a sheep in wolf's clothing...

Funny story, I'm actually working on my own game called "Doodlemon" which is basically this. This is legitimately a great source of inspiration.

The more I watch this video, the more cool it would be to see Pen make an entire in-depth fakemon region of his own

This was really fun to see, I like the Rhino fire starter and for sure believe a lot these scribbles have potential to be fulltly fleshed out mons. I admit that lot of these designs would feel right at home in a fan game like Pokémon Quartz 😂 For the Mythical I'm thinking that it created the two main Legendaries like Arceus and Regigigas did, not exactly sure for what reason though.

This is an awesome video and is both filled with surprisingly great designs, but an important conclusion on artists block. Definitely do more like this in the future!

The noise I made when seeing your first scribble mon was inhuman, what a guy he’s so awesome lmao

The castle bear roadblock pokemon could be called Bearstion which combines Bear and Bastion.

Man you’re really underselling your skills majority of these designs look cool and can become great if you redesign them

with the amount of time that you had for all of these, they're all really impressive. I love the designs of every single one. No matter how derpy they look!

That was awesome man! Keep up the good work :)

This is the best thing ive watched in a long time. like a LONG time (pokemon related). This is actually so cool

Everytime you draw them with more time, it instantly solds the concept for me

man your designs and overall art have gotten so good, especially like the water starter and psychic cat #90

I think more artists should design there full region like this first, to then redesign and change them from those, there is something about this concept that I think could improve regions, your onto something

This is the most accurate to the original pokemon style that I've seen anyone do. Most artists are just a little off, but I wouldn't second guess if these were real designs or not. Good job.

I love this! These are loose by necessity, but the colour blotches worked so well, and the lines are so clean, and the shapes so, shapey. The idea of a time-limit being part of a challenge gives you so much leeway on quality, but the results are still so good.

Really cool idea! A lot of great designs, and the ones that could still use work give you a great jumping off point for continuing!

this was a ton of fun and would love to see more of this. tempted to do it myself even.

This was actually really good! Well done! 😮🔥

Honestly very impressive. Love the whole theme of your channel btw.

A lot of these are really cool!! I especially like the psuedo design, and the amount of tornado inspired designs as well.

Please give us more long videos dude I loved every second of this :)

I rarely write comments, but you did an amazing job, in just 30 minutes you made over 100 beautiful designs. Of course $30 is an insulting amount for 140-160 Pokemon designs. Don’t underestimate yourself, in such an insignificant amount of time, equal to ~23 seconds, you managed to think through and draw a design with meaning. Also, most of the Pokemon that you thought were quite simple or poorly designed look great to my taste, for example that fire/fairy rodent, especially considering how the official ones are now starting to look Pokemon. And your design of the villain's dog is incredible, reminds me a bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing, I'm fall in love with it. I also admire your designs, Rhino, the first stage of Pokemon with a bat, turtle with a fortress and Medusa Ghost, and cat with bubble thoughts, they are fire🔥 Yes, there were many similarities between them, for example, almost every third Pokemon had fur like coat or “pumped up” arms, something like that. BUT for such an amount of time it is still incredible. I love your channel and your creativity, keep up the good work❤❤❤

lots of solid ideas honestly

The amount of creativity you have is insane. Can I have a little bit of it 🤣

If I'd paid $30 and got this, I couldn't reasonably be disappointed. Honestly, though, this is great to see someone just go full first draft on pokemon designs.

These designs are awesome l, i genuinely love a lot of these

pen paladin longform content? more of this, PLEASE! i love your shorts and i'd love the chance to be able to chill out to longer videos from you! love this!

This might be a lazy idea, but I think the name Ecsbatic for the electric bat could be fun name! Combining bat with Ecstatic which already has the word "static" within it.

Wow thats so cool and really challenging!

Subbed. Really good video!

A lot of these feel like when people draw over old Pokémon sprites which makes them look super weird and disproportional

A common problem I have with many fakemons is that I can't see them in the pokemon world. They don't quite look like a pokemon. But the wolf in sheep's clothing pokemon is something I 1000% could see be a real pokemon.

An idea that adds on to your capybara fakemon evolution line: Maybe it evolves at high friendship when there’s another one in its party? I do love the concept for this video! Some of the designs are very good! I’d love to see more of the fairy/fire rodents!

I like this idea a lot, it's a fun way to exercise your funky minimum designs and work out ideas

These are incredible. I loved seeing all of the full effort designs. Pokémon NEEDS you on their design team. You could make the game great again. Your designs show clear effort and genuineness that gen V had all while being modern and matured.

aw man these are so cool! I love your boxart legends especially! They look like with that large ring around them that they're being held back in terms of power kind've like Hoopa and what happened to the sword and shield wolves. The mythical is so fascinating! It's like a king who did evil deeds in life for selfish gain was cursed to roam the region forever :0

This helps really well with like designs like a very simple design can go a long way. I have a region that isn't based on anything and just has a hodgepodge of creatures

What a fun design challenge! I'd love to give this a try myself someday. The simplicity of the designs really reminds me of gen 1

7:25 definitely my favorite line! I love the ones that aren’t based on anything in particular, they’re a lot more fun to look at imo (and to use in Pokémon games)

Omg I wish we had an igloo tortoise or turtle. It feels like such a natural design with the ice blocks looking similar to the plates on a shell and it combos well with the idea a turtle has its home on its back. I think you did a great job with the execution of the concept

I am in love witg the turtle design that gets more and more angry

The designs are amazing!

The art style is actually cool

12:59 a creature concept of the entire twilight baseball scene

YO EPIC DESIGN!!! HOT DAMN

I love the final evo for the grass starter, it looks really cool.

Love the video !!!!

I think this is a good design warmup exercise, i should try it.

Feel like with second box art, it would be a type combo you wouldn’t expect. Something like Steel Fighting or something like that. Anyway, great video! Really enjoyed it :)

THIS VIDEO IS A MASTERPIECE, SO INSPIRING!

The randomness of your designs takes me back to the excitement I felt when playing Pokémon Blue for the first time in the 90's. Modern official Pokémon designs don't bring me joy like yours did in this video ❤

I’m definitely trying this challenge!

For Vikings and invertebrates, at 10:01 you could implement the idea of sea urchins that wear rocks as hats, and a aquarium apparently gave one a Viking hat and the urchin wore it

these are actually really cool. restriction breeds creativity and whatnot my favorite was 55 i love little guys

Ok but what a great way to get past art block and kickstart the creative process

Holy crap… you are so damn creative for being able to make Pokemon that are better than most of Nintendo’s efforts, in only 1 hour!

4:51 I was thinking it was a cute chimney on its head! I really like the designs in this video I’m gonna give it a try as well

Great and entertaining video! Just subscribed!!

I really like the villains ace. It reminds me of when I was a kid and I’d see some coat hanger in my room in the middle of the night, but it totally looked like some shadowy person watching me.

this is an amazing exercise that i hope gamefreak sees and applies to their art team. i think they do great work, but the way you’re finding such wonderful designs and ideas from splotches and timed doodles, i think it’d be a great warm-up for their grander design endeavors.

This is my favorite type of drawings and artstyle The upside down turtle is unique and cool

The ghost Medusa is really cool! The concept of being scared stiff combined with a Medusa’s ability to petrify works weirdly well. Perhaps it’s ability gives it’s ghost type moves have a chance of causing paralysis

Wow, what a sick drawing of Pik

These fakemon have big Gen 1 energy and I love it!

i actually tried to do the same as you and ended up making one of the coolest design i ever made thanks for the idea!

We need them all completed now!

This is such a fun idea! Kinda want to try it! Need some sort of scribbles to work with lol

This is honestly is cool design challenge

Pokémon number 94 is a good idea. At first batbat seemed a fitting name. I decided to translate this name to Japanese as a tie to the country of Pokémon’s origin. The name? Battobatto 😮

Super impressive designs!

I love these ideas

great video!

I think my one critique is that a lot of the three stage evolutions don't feel like they have a big dramatic change, which is likely due to them being doodles instead of fully thought out designs, but could also be addressed by taking out the middle evolution and just having it be a two stage. I feel like two stage evolutions are also a lot more common.

I'm surprised how well Pharifant came out in the end (that's the Fairy elephant if it wasn't obvious)

I thought that this region might fit the Pacific Ocean - an ocean based region. This includes the Moai pokémon, the squid starter and the ice turtle would be found in the south of the region, close to Antarctica. The rhino could be the Bornean Rhinoceros - obviously a stretch here, and the kangaroos come from Australia. This part of the world includes it all, but some major compromises would have to be made in order for it all to not be too far apart, but Pokémon already seems to have no problem with that, as show in games such as Black and White. All the seals, and small bird Pokémon perfectly fit the population of all the small deserted islands in the Pacific. The electric and sound Pokémon could be found in a bigger city. Probably Wellington or Auckland. Maybe the games could be called Sky, and Ocean.

Are we going to get a video where you do this same challenge but do max effort throughout!? Your polished finished designs look incredible, an entire gen like that would be so fun yo watch - even though I’m sure it would take weeks if not months to do

45&46 dark/fairy could have been dust bunnies

they look like they're from a completely different game, designed in the style of Pokémon. I loved them. ❤

Amazing video!

These are some seriously awesome designs. I would love to see these in a romhack or something

some of your base designs/scribbles are pure gold, i will definitely try this out myself. for 70/71 after seeing its drill nose, my interpretation for the grey "wing" was an exhaust. my take on your mythical and legendarys relation is simple, for itself i would go with an additional alternative form like hoopa unbound, those rings originally belonged to it. those legendarys where retainers. over time they got greedy, united and usurped the king, pretty much (commen history). it survived and is in its current form only a shadow of its former self.

I’d love to see this turned into a series of cleaning up designs and replacing the ones you really don’t like
