A Pokemon fan has recently created past Paradox forms for Fearow and Feraligatr, coming up with impressive results. Paradox forms were originally introduced in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and have been fairly popular with the Pokemon community since then, as fan artists have already designed many alternative designs for critters using this concept.
Fearow is the evolution of Spearow, and was originally introduced in Gen 1. To obtain the Normal/Flying-type creature in this generation, gamers could either evolve a Spearow starting from Level 20 or catch the Fearow on Routes 17, 18, and 23. Feraligatr, on the other hand, was the last evolution of one of the starters in Pokemon Gold and Silver. More recently, it was announced that its pre-evolution Totodile will be one of the starters in the upcoming Pokemon Legends: Z-A, marking an exciting time for Feraligatr fans.
Pokemon Fan Creates Impressive Stained Glass Artwork of Charizard
An incredibly talented Pokemon fan creates a stunning stained glass depiction of Charizard, one of the most popular creatures in the franchise.
Now, a prolific Pokemon fan artist called FallinDevast shared artwork with past Paradox forms for Fearow and Feraligatr, coming up with two dinosaur-like monsters that looked pretty unique. While Dread Jaw was a past version of Feraligatr that looked like a brown stegosaurus with the Water/Fighting-type, the other creation had a more amusing appearance. The unnamed creation was a Normal/Ghost-type monster that looked like a dinosaur that had recently eaten a Fearow, with the dead bird’s head hanging from its mouth. It was a hilarious take on a past Paradox creature, but FallinDevast wasn’t entirely sure of a name, as they thought about Naught Dead but didn’t really like it. In the comments, fans suggested other names, such as Fowl Rest, Carrion Maw, Dread Jaw, and others.
Pokemon Fan Art Imagines Paradox Forms for Fearow and Feraligatr
This is not the only fan art shared by FallinDevast recently. Earlier this month, for example, the artist created past Paradox forms for Nidoqueen and Nidoking, transforming these creatures into dinosaur-inspired monsters with strong carapaces.
In another fairly unique work, FallinDevast also created new regional evolutions for Nosepass and Probopass. In these regional variants, the Pokemon were depicted as made out of stone, looking like a castle’s wall and a huge gate, respectively.
Despite Pokemon Scarlet and Violet being originally released in 2022, fans have continued to devise Paradox forms over the years. Another fan artist recently created a future Paradox form for Heliolisk, which was called Iron Rod. In this form, the lizard-like creature was depicted as a robot with a long neck. Hopefully, the fanbase will continue sharing creative fan art, and games such as the upcoming Pokemon Legends: Z-A will inspire creators in even more ways.
