Design Origin: The MANY African species of Gorgonopsids. They aren't based on one specific species, Braidread can represent the smaller species like Aelurosaurus or Lycaenops. And Gorgoloc represents the larger species like Inostrencevia while also representing Rubidgea, Dinogorgon, or hell Gorgonops itself

The line is based on the mythical monsters they share a name with, the Gorgons. In fact, that's how the line gets its ice type. Gorgons, we're known to be able to turn men to stone(freezing them in place). This line does that but freezing prey in blocks of Ice.

The hair these pokemon have are based on braids and dreadlocks, which are very popular hair styles associated with African/African-American culture. This is a nod to the now widespread depictions of Gorgonopsid being the first to evolve hair(though admittedly, we have no proof of this)

I'm back with another convergent mon. Meet Sneaquill and Theivile/Theivsler

Design Origin: Both forms of Sa two different forms of Sneaquill are meant to represent Johtonian Sneasel and Hisuian Sneasel. By doing this, I am able to have them represent the two radically different depictions of Velociraptor that media has to offer.

The Retro form represents the outdated scaly Raptors popularized by the Jurassic Park and world movies. As the swift, intelligent, Ultra-violent, Man-sized "lizards" that hunt in complex Wolf or Lion-like packs. Which hilariously up with how Johtonian Sneasel/Weavile act, as Weavile's Pokedex Entries go on about how intelligent Weavile are and how deadly their packs are, even to the point where these 3'07, 75 lbs cat weasels can take down a 8'07, 641-lbs mammoth Boar...

But anyways, the Neo form represents more accurate portrayals of Velociraptor. As solitary, Coyote-sized ground hawks with inward-facing palms, wing feathers, a tail fan, and covered head-to-toe in pennaceous feathers. Which also lines up with Hisuian Sneasel/Sneasler, which are said to live alone and aren't as violent as their Johtonian counterparts.

Design Origin: The Fishock line are based on fish from the Siganidae family AKA Rabbitfish

Fishock is based on the Masked Rabbitfish


Tazigan is based on the Foxface Rabbitfish.

Finally, their Shinies are based on the Magnificent Foxface Rabbitfish.

The line's concept is based on the fact that ALL Rabbitfish have venomous spines on their dorsal and anal fins as a means of defense.

Hi! This is my first post in InkBlot. These are my drawings of Regional fakes of Tyrunt and Tyrantrum I made: Meet Flyrunt and Flyrantrum.

Design Origin: Flyrunt is based on the African Crowned Eagle, specifically an Adolescent one.

Flyrantrum is based on Adult African Crowned Eagles, as well as the Extinct Malagasy Crowned Eagle.

Flyrantrum is also based in Roc, a giant eagle-like bird of Persian Mythology. This is a nod to theory that the Malagasy Crowned Eagle, combined with elephant bird eggs, is the source of sightings of the Roc in Madagascar.
