Inspirations: The Pacific Northwest of America aka The Olympic Peninsula and Ancient Greece
Climate: Rainy, cold, Forest and Rocky coast
Inspiration: Apollo, The Oracle of Delphi, and Grizzly Bears
Cubphi, the premonition Pokémon. This little Cub peers into it’s fiery Orb to know when it’s going to rain. When it isn’t raining, this little bear stares at the sun, and some say it’s the source of the cub’s visions.
Bearphi, the tarot Pokémon. This little bear uses it’s fiery cards to predict it’s opponent’s next move!
Grizacle: the Oracle Pokémon. This Pokémon sees premonitions of danger in it’s fire and acts accordingly.
The Fire starter I’m imagining for this Region is a little cub called Cubphi!
His coloring would be Orangey-Yellow, carrying a little Orange ball of fire, peering into it like a magical orb!
His second evolution holds fiery cards instead, and has a little more dark orange in it’s palate.
And finally, Grizacle is it’s full form, with a fiery orb AND fiery tarot cards. It’s color palate has yellows, oranges, and some red.
Grasspent/Grassdu/Stondusa:
Grasspent, the Grass Snake Pokémon. This little Pokémon uses a leafy shield held in it’s tail to protect itself from harm.
Grassdu, the Two Headed Snake Pokemon. This Pokemon uses the flat rock on it’s tail as a shield when threatened.
Stondusa, the shield snake Pokemon. This Pokémon uses it’s rocky shield in battle, and is said to be able to turn it’s opponents to stone.
I imagine this little sweetie as the most pacifist little snake EVER. But it soon gains a rocky confidence from it’s new rock typing as it evolves and becomes a fierce warrior!
Kracul/Kracum/Krakseidon:
Inspiration: Poseidon, the Kraken, Squids
Kracul, the Squid Pokemon. This Pokemon can shoot Ink when frightened!
Kracum: the Poisonous Squid Pokémon. This Pokémon’s ink is a quite potent poison in battle!
Krakseidon, the Kraken Pokémon! This Poisonus Squid Pokemon is said to be the biggest Species in Olympia!
I imagine Kracul as having that classic mysterious but cute feel, growing larger and more elegant as Kracum, gaining a Poison typing, and getting EVEN BIGGER as a fully formed Krakseidon.
Other Pokemon I imagine for this region:
• A Dark type based on a Mountain lion
• An Eagle inspired Lightning type to represent Zeus
• A new Rock Type based on Marble Statues
• LOTS OF Electric, Water, Rock, Ghost, and Dark types!
• The Elite Four for this region are found at the top of Mount Olympia!
- An Electric type trainer based on Zeus
- A flying type trainer based on Hera
- A Water type trainer based on Poseidon
- A Ghost type trainer based on Hades
• A Plant/Poison Gym run by a Persephone inspired trainer
• A tropical style Gym on the coast run by a Sailor style trainer with an Orca-inspired Pokémon ace
• A Fire type Gym run by an Apollo inspired trainer who complains it’s too cold and dark in Olympia and he needs some Sunshine!
• A Steel/Fire type Gym run by a Hephestus inspired trainer in a wheelchair
• A Ghost Gym run by a Melinoe inspired Trainer
• A Psychic type Gym run by a Hypnos inspired trainer, with a new Hypno variation for the region.
• A Fighting type Gym run by a Hercules inspired trainer
• A gym run by an Athena inspired trainer with a Decidueye as her Ace.
GOSH THIS WAS SO FUN TO MAKE
