Guzma's Graffiti

[Guzma]

So yeah, seeing as how I'm taking a drawing class this semester, I'm gonna probably be posting some drawings here. I'm gonna start off with a Pokemon I saw in a dream about a Pokemon/Etrian Odyssey crossover I had last night...

This is Sinisilk. She (all Sinisilk are female, kind of like Salazzle and Vespiquen) is a Bug/Dark-type based on black widow spiders and Skulltulas from Zelda. She's the fully-evolved form of the Entomologist class' starter, Atterkopf.

I had another idea for a Pokemon called Maskhopper. However, drawing it would require colored pencils, and I'm unfortunately out of those... Buuuuuuut I can splice sprites together to make it!

It's a two-stage Bug/Fighting-type based on Kamen Rider. I made it using parts from Bisharp (arms, legs; legs are slightly modified to be more capable of high jumps), Scizor (thorax), Venomoth (abdomen), Accelgor (scarf), Venonat (eyes; slightly modified to be smaller and fit on the head), Ledian (antennae), Machamp (belt; slightly modified to be smaller) and Leavanny (head; heavily modified).

Drew another Yuzei region Bug-type: Minerant! It's a Bug/Ground-type with Huge Power. It's basically everything Diggersby wishes it could be.

 

[Guzma]

This is Locusatsu, a Bug/Fighting-type grasshopper based on Kamen Rider!

And this is Buzzibelle, a Bug/Flying-type damselfly based on planes! Ultralight biplanes, with the tail guns of old bomber planes, to be specific.

A whole bunch of new ideas!

Tundroth is a Bug/Ice-type. It's a speedy special attacker with the ability Compound Eyes, letting it spam Blizzard and Hurricane with high accuracy, as well as being able to reliably put opponents to sleep with Sleep Powder, letting it set up with Quiver Dance. It's basically Vivillon with better offensive typing, a better movepool and much better Speed, Special Attack and Special Defense, allowing it to deal considerable damage even before setting up with Quiver Dance.

Commandant is a Bug/Ground-type. It's a redesign and retheming of Minerant. It still has Huge Power (running off a solid base 91 Attack, making the third-strongest user of Huge Power/Pure Power behind Mega Mawile and Mega Medicham), but it's now based on army ants and explosive ants, hence the grenade abdomen. Its Defense is surprisingly solid, but its Speed and HP are average and its special stats are low.

Docsquito is a Bug/Poison-type based on mosquitoes and plague doctors. As much as I love Buzzwole, it isn't themed around being a plague-spreading parasite, which Docsquito embraces, also making up for the disappointment Spritzee and Aromatisse put me through. It actually has Triage, which allows it to use draining moves like Leech Life and Strength Sap and utility moves such as Aromatherapy with priority. Triage also synergizes with its signature move, Vile Infusion, which is basically a Poison-type Drain Punch that has a 40% chance of badly poisoning the target. While it looks frail, it actually has solid physical bulk; its Attack is only decent, however, and its special stats are abysmal. Its best stat is by far its Speed.

Finally, there's Buoytle, a Bug/Water-type based on diving beetles and, well, divers. It's an incredibly bulky Pokemon with good HP, Defense and Special Defense, and its Attack is fairly decent. It's meant to be a setup sweeper, and has the ability Unaware, allowing it to wallbreak while ignoring its opponents stat boosts, and it has reliable healing through Slack Off.

I love a good wall, Buoytle sits well with me.
These are incredibly well thought out!!

Thanks! Also, Cresselia92 redrew Sinisilk and Locusatsu to look more like actual Pokemon for me:

The second attachment appears to be broken.

 

[Guzma]

Is it fixed now?

 

[Nicolas721]

I love Buoytle! It's what Araquanid should've been.

Hey, don't diss Araquanid. Even if Smogon actually discovered that it's inferior competitively to my boy Golisopod.

I was never truly happy with Tundroth's existing design, so I decided to redesign it into a more elegant design based on Luna moths.

I call it Lunaurora. It feels elegant enough to be an actual rival for Volcarona now.

 

[Guzma]

Redesigned Commandant with a more mantis-like stance. Maybe its previous design could be its pre-evolution, Armant?
