Zonnia Pokedex: Mega Beakaiser, Mega Gelogeist, and Mega Dij'igenesis
The third and final set of Mega Evolutions has been added to the Zonnia Pokedex, completing it! It is now done. You can use the source link on this post to find it on ao3. Thank you for reading.
Zonnia Pokedex: Mega Capygigas, Mega Avarayth, and Mega Tempersuer
The first of my three Mgea Evolution chapters has now been published! You can find the link to them in the source of this post, as I believe linking directly still hides posts from tumblr's tags! Terrible website!
I’m happy to announce the opening of the Mega Evolution poll for Zonnia!
By following the source link to AO3, you will find details of how to nominate up to six Zonnian Pokemon to receive Mega Evolutions! Once the poll closes, the top six most nominated will gain these new forms!
If you can and are interested, please head along to Zonnia and cast your vote!
Update on this, we have an end date set! On the 20th of September, 2023, the votes for Zonnia Mega Evolutions will be locked in place and the most voted for Pokemon will receive Mega Evolutions!
Of course that still leaves time for folks to cast their own votes and affect the final tally, so if you’re interested please head along to Zonnia: A Fusion Pokedex on Ao3, check out my creatures, and cast your vote!

Zorukumat is a titanic flying serpent Pokemon, whose body length exceeds forty feet with proportions similar to those of Aabysra. The Pokemon's body consists of seven large building-like pieces of stone, each shaped as though they were rectangular but are presently bulging outwards in a rounder shape due to internal pressure. Each individual stone piece is distinct, and has some additional outcroppings emerging from the main chunk. Darker brown stone occurs in spots on the top of each piece, with lighter brown making up the rest of it.
Emerging from the rear of each stone piece is a massive volume of pale blue-white feathers, which creates an obscuring screen around the gap between one stone piece to the next. Tracing over each stone piece are lines and circles of golden metal, which connect together and extend from one piece to the next, through the feathers, to keep all connected together. The stone pieces of Zorukumat grow smaller towards the end of its body, and from the final cylinder-like piece of stone emerges a mass of curved feathers that create the appearance of a fluffy tail.
From the front of the largest stone piece, which occurs at the front of Zorukumat's body, a massive wall of feathers emerge, ranging in colour from white to pale-blue, stretching out and back to create an obscuring collar that is triple the diameter of the largest stone piece. This wall of feathers adjusts in flatness, going from a completely flat surface when viewed head on to a pointed shape analogous to a serpent's head.
Viewable within this mass of feathers are two diamond-shaped eyes, with black edges that are slightly rounded. The interior of each eye is pale yellow, with a black circular iris surrounded by two concentric black rings. These eyes are not physical, but instead consistent points of light.
At all times Zorukumat emits a faint golden glow, but when actively using its power this glow becomes extremely radiant.

Hot-bodied Pokemon
Fire / Water
Charmander + Piplup
Appearance
Blistern are water-bird Pokemon, one and a half feet tall, with uranian blue plumage and a salmon pink underbelly. These Pokemon have an orange beak and two orange webbed feet, and three dark blue feathers making up their tail. A swoop of the same dark blue feathers curves over the top of the head and up, like a wave.
Blistern's eyes are round, dark red-black with white highlights, one on either side of the Pokemon's head. Just beneath each eye a curled feather emerges and points backwards, loosely resembling a moustache. These feathers are the same dark blue as the head swoop and tail.
The chest of Blistern ranges in temperature from warm to scaldingly hot. Aside from a potential heat haze around the chest, the only way to identify the Pokemon's current temperature is by its current temperament.
Ecology
Blistern appear scattered along the western coast of the Zonnia Region, however their most concentrated number can be found within Lake Quliqusi, headwater of the Loma River found within the Kuntunka Range. In every location the Pokemon is primarily piscivorous, feeding on small fish which they dive into the water to catch.
Heat builds within the body of Blistern, which allows them to weaponise steam and scalding water in addition to regular water for attacks. However Blistern are not yet fully suited to managing these high internal temperatures, and so spend a majority of their time in cold water to balance it out. The Pokemon are exceptional swimmers and divers, and can spend extensive lengths of time underwater without concern. Their walking and flying capabilities are weak however, and while they can do both, they are slow and awkward to do so.
As the heat rises within Blistern, the Pokemon become more temperamental and territorial, rejecting the presence of others local to them. The Pokemon live in loosely grouped colonies, such that they can group up or spread apart as a response to their overall temperature. During significant cold periods, the Pokemon may eschew water almost entirely, remaining on land and letting their body heat remain high. An on-land Blistern is almost certainly liable to be somewhat cranky, and so care in approach should be handled.
While the direct evolution of Blistern, Gysull, tend to be loners who range afar, the final evolution of this Pokemon line, Beakaiser, can normally be found nearby to individual Blistern colonies, further demanding care in approaching the Pokemon. It is because their final evolution is so protective of them that Blistern are a rare Pokemon to obtain outside of the regular channels for acquiring a Starter Pokemon.
Field Report
Per public records from the Zonnia Pokemon Foundation, the intention to nominate three Zonnian Pokemon that fit the Starter Pokemon structure quickly settled on Capyzen and, taking its typing into account, then looked to Anoil and Blistern, attempting to identify whether said Pokemon lines could potentially meet the conditions of a Starter Pokemon. After research concluded, breeding programs were either established - in the case of the Capyzen of Pazrosa Gardens - or connected to - as with the Anoil of the Cendio Tepui, and the Blistern of Lake Quliqusi.
While Blistern can be found scattered along Zonnia's rocky western coast, the guarding presence of their final evolution makes capture risky for all but the most experienced trainers. By contrast however, the population of Blistern native to Lake Quliqusi have a long-standing relationship with the residents of Laphi Village, a series of connected floating islands on the lake itself with housing built atop. Blistern often use these islands as rest points, sleep atop roofs during cold nights - doubling to provide warming from above for the people within - and in general are far more socialised with humans. And while Beakaiser can be found around Lake Quliqusi as well, they do not possess the same wariness thanks to this long history of cohabitation with others.
As such, any Blistern presented as a Starter Pokemon to another is most assuredly from Laphi Village, being a Pokemon very relaxed around people. Much like with Capyzen and Anoil, Blistern will gain strength and wildness with evolution, challenging new trainers to rise to the occasion of caring for their new partner. Of the three Starter Pokemon, Blistern boasts the highest temper due to its rising internal body heat, and requires regular bathing as part of care. When cared for appropriately however, they are affectionate and capable Pokemon, who will walk alongside many neophyte Trainers of the Zonnia Region on the path to maturity.
