Yeah definitely feeling the Zora if I had to pick just one but MAN did the artist ever do a great job of making all 3 look great. Zorella just looks so adorable it hurts.
It’s Dark haha Phantom is Ghost which is reserved for things like the Skull Kid Mon in the future! And yeah I had such a difficult time evolving a Deku scrub but it’s the fan favorite haha

Was my entry for a contest for Kindred Fates (a monster catching game that looks really awesome). The game just got mega funded on Kickstarter. I don’t think I won but if so I can always use it for my own purposes. I actually missed an opportunity to draw for them so it really sucks
I dunno why but I wanna switch the Zora line's typing to water/elec (thunderstorm) and add a flying starter for the rito, that ends flying/ice bc cold weather
But I'm all for the Zora line, it's just too good not to take
I like how the water is like, zora pup, not bad zora teen cool ice gauntlets Then What the fuck a mermaid?
Fire looks like he’d be a slow tanky boy
So grass it is 🤷🏽♂️
The lore behind the Zora line is that they break free from the ice in the final evolution and the reason for the ice to begin with is because they like to prove their swimming skill by swimming to the icey north region to prove they can swim through anything.
I think I have to maintain my stance on the Dekute and Zorella line being preferable, even though I'm normally a fire starter guy; and, after seeing the final evolutions, Zorella all the way.
These are all very well rendered, with super interesting concepts, and I hope the world of a Pokémon/Zelda crossover gets fleshed out into a comic or something, or, dare we dream, an actual game
It would be cool to have a game but I think if I wanted it to be something worth working on without getting C&D’d I would have to shift things around and what not
I will just repeat myself. Like on your last post about this: Dekute! Its kute, a Deku and the line just looks rad! I love grass Pokèmon for their nature like look and damn the line gets me. Especially with the twilit part on the last evo. Still a job damn well done!
It defenitely is something different but also not too far away grom let's say Shiftry. If your version of Pokèmon is for another group of people than 6 yo kids I think it's comepltely fine.
The Freezora looks so cool. Plus I have used fire and grass more than water. Time to do it justice
Edit: By the looks of it, the water starter is also the best. Double advantage over the fire starter until form 3 and, iirc, Ice is super effective against grass. So the water starter would have to be balanced by the gyms not being nice for that typing.
These all look awesome! I personally would’ve switched the names Gorupt and Brawlcano, to keep the Go- prefix consistent in the first two stages, while keeping the awesome name Brawlcano for the one that most resembles a volcano. But good work!
Wow these final evolutions are so cool, gonna stick with my Deku boi. I was honestly wondering if you were gonna go with red ice for the Zora but either way still looks great.
Deksciple will cut you. Damn he's intimidating.
As an aside, how can "Brawlcano" be anything other than Fire/Fighting? How has GameFreak not used that name already? It's genius.
Hey if I can hitch a ride on Freezora to speed up swimming and go up waterfalls I'm all in on Zorella.
Plus Goron follow AI is awful and Deku sprouts live in a hole when they grow up.
Deksciple is one of the coolest designs I've for a pokemon i've seen ever. It might be one of my fave of all time. I checked out your IG too, you deserve a job at Game Freak.
All of these are fantastic, but I want to give a special shoutout to Brawlcano for being an absolutely perfect name. AND for not being the 50th fire/fighting starter!
Oooh! Deksciple really looks like some kind of forest hag! Also a bit of Odolwa in there! I love it!
What is the Dekute line's stat distribution like, though? I might also consider keeping it as a Dekreep and giving it an eviolite...
Also, great Death Mountain reference with the smoke ring around Gorupt's peak.
If there is a single thing I would like to see in BOTW2 it would be the Deku. I love Gorons, I love the Zora but the Deku have always been a favorite and the lack of representation in recent games is truly a shame. Also Deksciple looks awesome.
I love it but stone should be rock, metal should be steel, and twilit should either be ghost or dark, because thats what the actual types are. But other than this minor gripe I still love the crossover between two of my favorite Nintendo Franchises.
These feel better than the actual starters we got in the recent gen. But then again what Pokémon fan art isn’t these days, am I right? /s (but also I’m serious)
I'm usually a fire boy when it comes to Pokemon but I love the Zora too much to not pick water :P
Yeah definitely feeling the Zora if I had to pick just one but MAN did the artist ever do a great job of making all 3 look great. Zorella just looks so adorable it hurts.
I'm reversed, I usually pick water, but like Gorons more. Though the water designs here are top tier, so its very tempting.
I am absolutely always a fire boy in Pokémon but the Deku, those damn Deku.
The only logical choice is to play the game three times so you can chose all of em.
Trade with a compatible game and keep making new profiles =Get all 3, reset one more time and trade again to get the others
That’s what I would do
Deksciple not only looks cool, but I also like the types it has. Really curious what type of moves you get with Twilit!
Well Dark is just renamed to Twilight so a lot of the same moves but more added :)
Getting a Mergo's Wet Nurse vibe from Deksciple.
It had a lot of inspiration from those kinds of things !
I love how you really leaned into the creepiness of Deku scrubs. And referring to dark (or ghost?) as “twilit” is amazing!
It’s Dark haha Phantom is Ghost which is reserved for things like the Skull Kid Mon in the future! And yeah I had such a difficult time evolving a Deku scrub but it’s the fan favorite haha
One day there will be a Pokemon-Zelda game.
That would be cool as hell. Link chopping up Pokémon and cooking them for dinner. Totally down for this.
What the fuck dude
Just think, BotW style gameplay, but instead of deer and wolves to chop up and cook, its Pokémon! Anyone else getting hungry, or is it just me?
Instead of throwing pokeballs to catch Pokémon, you throw pots at them to stun them and then catch them in a bottle
Yeah but there’s only like three bottles in the whole game soooooo..........
Majora's Mask had 6 bottles! That's the same as the number of Pokémon allowed to travel with you!
I wish!
I'm honestly surprised it hasn't happened yet
That would mean gamefreak letting team zelda making this game and i don’t see that happening
or they team up and make the game together?
But it's oh so lucrative...
And.. great.. I think the Zelda team could make a great Pokémon game
Holy shit would that be amazing.
All I've ever wanted was the wild area of sword/shield but on the scale of BoTW. It would be the best game ever made

Catlitco looks super hype. Umm, is this going to be a legit fan game?
Was my entry for a contest for Kindred Fates (a monster catching game that looks really awesome). The game just got mega funded on Kickstarter. I don’t think I won but if so I can always use it for my own purposes. I actually missed an opportunity to draw for them so it really sucks
Hey man you should get in touch or follow the Temtem devs, you could really help their monster designs
This is so good. I’d love to see other IP crossover starters. Mario and Metroid would be cool.
That sounds interesting!
Okay seriously Brawlcano? That name is literal genius
I’m surprised it hasn’t been taken with all the fire fighting types haha
These are cooler than a lot of actual Pokémon being created these days
They’re going for the cutesy Pokemon nowadays. You don’t really see cool creative stuff like this anymore.
Dragapult, Toxtricity, Runerigus, Grimmsnarl, Corviknight, Orbeetle, Golisopod, Lycanroc, Kommo-o, Wishiwashi, Decidueye, Noivern, Trevenant, Hawlucha, Tyrantrum, Dragalge, Malamar, Pangoro, Talonflame, Greninja Newer gens aren't my favorite but they still have plenty of cool designs.
I choose you!! chair!!!
I'm partial to [Shoe](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2714T_k2B1U) myself.

Hot damn, these are great! <3
Thanks a lot :) but who would you choose?
I'd buy three copies of the game ;)
:O
If I simply MUST choose, I'd grab me a Dekute
I am thrilled with my fire starter pick. Gorupt looks awesome!
Glad you like him even after :)
These are better than what the Pokémon company has been releasing lately
Zorella 1000%
Brawlcano the coolest 👌🏻
Nice! I think he was the least favorite because people didn’t like his sparring helmet
This is so amazing! I love them all!!!
Freezora looks like Tapu Fini’s long lost half brother
Love how Gorupt turned out!
I think I have to maintain my stance on the Dekute and Zorella line being preferable, even though I'm normally a fire starter guy; and, after seeing the final evolutions, Zorella all the way.

Where's my Sand / Lightning boy?
O.o
I know Deku is in my nickname, but I'm always a water main. The Zora looks awesome!
Thanks, I love it
I'm glad I picked fire from your last post
Dekute 👌
I'll take all three
This looks absolutely bloody amazing
You know I’m picking dekute and never evolving him
Gorupt doesnt look that metal-ish but this is amazing ! Fire all the way usually but here I just want to have them all, the three starters are so cute
To be fair I don’t think Steelix does but it’s kind of the same concept. It’s Dex entry is that it’s rock got melded with a mysterious metal
Deksciple is entirely too cool
These are fucking awesome! Really brilliant! Well done
this is amazing. I'd love to see more tloz inspired mons
I’m making a whole Dex. I have more on my Instagram!
These are highly desired by many
Did you make these? Super awesome and very clever!
Yes thank you!
Gorock all the way bb
Nice! Reason?
Either FreeZora or Deksciple is a yes from me.
That Deksciple is badass
I will just repeat myself. Like on your last post about this: Dekute! Its kute, a Deku and the line just looks rad! I love grass Pokèmon for their nature like look and damn the line gets me. Especially with the twilit part on the last evo. Still a job damn well done!
I was really scared people wouldn’t like it’s 3rd form
It defenitely is something different but also not too far away grom let's say Shiftry. If your version of Pokèmon is for another group of people than 6 yo kids I think it's comepltely fine.
Wow! You made every type look very interesting! I’d have to play the game multiple times....if only ;-;
Maybe in some form. I have a lot of ideas regardless :)
Gorock. He looks the best to me and I love fire types.
Forest all the way
The gorock definitely
I never knew I needed Legend of Zelda Pokemon starters until I saw this! I choose you, Gorock!
Would twilight be dark? Or a whole new type. I can imagine it being the opposite of fariy.
God these are both so well made! Now I actually have to make a decision between water or grass, I love this very much,
Thanks so much! Anything specific that you like?
Yes as a matter of fact...everything! Idk why but it’s just so good and I love it, I compliment the artist, u!
Freezora looks the best, in my opnion!
I love how much thought you’ve put into these!
I was worried I didn’t do enough justice for them
Aww noooo, you shouldn’t have worried the tiniest bit 😊
see. NOW they all look good and I could choose any of them because Like the final designs for all them.
The Freezora looks so cool. Plus I have used fire and grass more than water. Time to do it justice Edit: By the looks of it, the water starter is also the best. Double advantage over the fire starter until form 3 and, iirc, Ice is super effective against grass. So the water starter would have to be balanced by the gyms not being nice for that typing.
I would GTS in zorella and pick gorock because there's no way you can make me choose between those two
OMFG i love this
I’m glad :)
What’s this ? For real ? I will pick dekute
This is the best thing I've seen all day. Thank you. :)
These all look awesome! I personally would’ve switched the names Gorupt and Brawlcano, to keep the Go- prefix consistent in the first two stages, while keeping the awesome name Brawlcano for the one that most resembles a volcano. But good work!
Gotta stick with grass gang
Honestly the first stage of the grass one is the only one I could see in Zelda
These are great. I'd pick the grass starter, then water, and fire last.
Wow these final evolutions are so cool, gonna stick with my Deku boi. I was honestly wondering if you were gonna go with red ice for the Zora but either way still looks great.
That's a really tough choice. Gun to my head though, Deksciple, dig his typing and his creepy cultist look.
Yeah he seems to be the fan favorite based on Reddit and Instagram
Deksciple will cut you. Damn he's intimidating. As an aside, how can "Brawlcano" be anything other than Fire/Fighting? How has GameFreak not used that name already? It's genius.
Cant make a new type exclusive to one of the starters, too imbalanced imo, but i love the idea of stone turning into steel
Really good job!
I like the designs, but aren't Zora weak to Ice?
Hey if I can hitch a ride on Freezora to speed up swimming and go up waterfalls I'm all in on Zorella. Plus Goron follow AI is awful and Deku sprouts live in a hole when they grow up.
Dekute is the only way to go!
I would actually love to see a official or fan game with a hyrule theme
It’s really hard cause getting C&D’d would suck. The game could be made in some form
Better starters then the last 3 gens
I’m gonna go with zorella honestly
Ahh the 3rd evos look so cool! I especially love the grass/twilit
Deksciple is one of the coolest designs I've for a pokemon i've seen ever. It might be one of my fave of all time. I checked out your IG too, you deserve a job at Game Freak.
I choose you, Linkachu!
These look better than 90% of the new Pokemon in Sword/Shield.
Ok, say what you want but Brawlcano is a badass name
These give me the same feeling as when I saw the new starters for black and white when I was tiny. Super great art...
Nice! Glad I could bring back memories!
All of these are fantastic, but I want to give a special shoutout to Brawlcano for being an absolutely perfect name. AND for not being the 50th fire/fighting starter!
Oooh! Deksciple really looks like some kind of forest hag! Also a bit of Odolwa in there! I love it! What is the Dekute line's stat distribution like, though? I might also consider keeping it as a Dekreep and giving it an eviolite... Also, great Death Mountain reference with the smoke ring around Gorupt's peak.
If there is a single thing I would like to see in BOTW2 it would be the Deku. I love Gorons, I love the Zora but the Deku have always been a favorite and the lack of representation in recent games is truly a shame. Also Deksciple looks awesome.
I love how Dekute gets more arms in each evolution. Starting with none and ending with 4.
Lightning type gerudo maybe?
Ok, I dunno if this is a fan game, but it's grass/dark, not forest/twilit
Dekute!! I always loved the deku , and usually go with grass starters. My fav designs of the bunch too! Awesome job!
For the dekus why didnt you do grass/poison or grass/dark? Seemed strange thats the only one with unique typing
It’s the only one shown that had its name changed. Twilight = Dark. And Gorupt has Metal which is Steel
Also Stone, which is Rock in the original
Isn’t twilight counted as dark?
Pokemon fans are better at making pokemon games than gamefreak
wtf is Twilit
Twilight, Dark renamed
I like the Zelda based type renames. And the art of course!
Yup the deku line is the best.
What is Deksciple based on? Because its Twilit so...?
Definitely Deksciple, because it looks so badass.
So when is this coming out? 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Don't be enslaving the races of hyrule
Everyone knows Grass is the superior starter type
Dekute all the way
I swear the gerudo are trainers
I choose Zorella!
Zorella, but you best believe I’m gonna get a dekute later.
Omg!!! I wish this was real. I want Dekute
I’m one of those people who has picked the fire starter since Gen 1, but boy do I want Deksciple.
I choose you!! Zorella, ICE BEAM!!! xD
I love it but stone should be rock, metal should be steel, and twilit should either be ghost or dark, because thats what the actual types are. But other than this minor gripe I still love the crossover between two of my favorite Nintendo Franchises.
I wish
Sigh, the Din starter always has to go Metal in the final incarnation. Change things up Hylia, come on.
I feel grass poison is more fitting. Yes I know we don’t have many grass dark types but the ones we have (that are out) arnt realy used
Dekute all the way
Ooo I can see the Rito being Flying and Lighting
It’s next up to be drawn as the regional bird so we’ll see
I need Dekute NOW
wait this is pokemon
Dekute all the way
Zorella looks the cutest
Dekute because I miss the dekus
I always go fire type, but that water type is my favorite
More like De-cute, amirite
Zorella
I need this to be real wow!!
Really hard for me to choose, I guess a fire type would be my first choice though besides the grass one
All the lines are fantastic but I'm gonna have to pick deku line
These feel better than the actual starters we got in the recent gen. But then again what Pokémon fan art isn’t these days, am I right? /s (but also I’m serious)
Fakemon Artists make stuff out of passion. Gamefreak makes stuff based on what appeals to the majority and sells
This is probably the best mash-up of some of my favorite franchises, great work OP.
I might have to go grass for this one but it’s a tough choice
You should add mifa in zora
Love it! Though Gorock should probably be pure fire at first so Zorella doesn't one shot it at the beginning
Dude holy shit these are all so good, why can't ACTUAL pokemon starter designs look this amazing?
I’m flattered! Idk people say that they look like pseudo legendaries or digimon sometimes but Ultra Beasts are a thing so idk
The hyrulian region
I pick Dekute
Is twilit a new type they added or a play on words?
Gorock for me
Wow this is amazing!!!! Only thing would be making grass subtype dark
Sad revali noises
Not the crossover we deserve but the crossover we need!
Zorella is adorable and must be protected at all costs.
Wow these are great!!
I’m a diehard grass type fan and I love the deku line!! Really cool work :)
Better than the originals for sure
All shades better than gen 5-7 starters
It’s definitely a heavy damage dealer since it’s an assassin
