When I was a freshman, I thought a lot about making my own Fakemon region. Never finished or got very far in it, but here’s some blurry concept art.
So there’s some gym leaders, I kind of still like Kenna’s design.
Fire starter: Embird, Scoarch, Flaenix
Grass starter: Kitree, Furrest, Fevine
Water starter: Tidhal, Narwave, Tsunarmi
Please ignore that I couldn’t and still can’t draw animals.
