Also finally redesigning Lilpillar’s final evolution.
Lilpillar
The small caterpillar fakemon
Bug type
“Lilpillar's use the sharp spike to lodge themselves on a tree limb and then reach out with their sticky paws to collect leaves. “
Cuvern
The walking chrysalis fakemon
Bug type
“Lilpillar will hide in holes to evolve so that in their more vulnerable form of Cuvern, they can slap any who get too close with their antennas.”
“When they sense danger, Cuvern will use its antennas to walk about in order to find a new hiding spot”
Prariom
The fairy king fakemon
Bug/ Fairy type
“Prariom is extremely loyal to its trainer and teammates who helped carry it to its current state. It is said that Prariom will bring about misfortune to any who have tried to harm its trainer.”
“A proud and vengeful fakemon. After evolving, Prariom will find those who have wronged it and give them bad luck.”
Ability: Troublemaker
Gives the fakemon STAB for dark type moves
Prariom’s new name comes from Pretty + “Then Perish” + moth. It was going to be spelled Preriom, but I didn’t like how it was going to be pronounced and changed the spelling. After finishing the art, I came up with a slightly less meme reason for the name as Prayer + Requiem + moth.
original design (art from 2013)(the new art is from June 2021 for future reference), I tried to keep some of Florify’s design traits like the skirt/cape.
Also while I’m here. A fun story for why Lilpillar gets a knife.
When I was 4, I would go over to a tree in my neighbors front yard that would be covered in caterpillars and just let like 40 caterpillars crawl on my arm.
In order to get me to stop, my dad told me that one of my older brothers got his stomach cut open by a caterpillar. And I was convinced and for the most part stopped handling caterpillars from then on.
((I’m in my mid-20s and too nervous to look up if a caterpillar can actually cut someone or ask my dad if that was a true story. I think I want to continue believing my brother got beat up by a caterpillar. Granted I am now aware that there are dangerous caterpillars although that’s because of venom/poison))
Anyways artfight is a few days away, and I suddenly have an urge to redesign my old fakemon just like last year.
