This dude is better at creating Pokemon than the actual pokémon designers are.

It’s true and it scares me

The designers have been real quiet since this came out...

I mean to be fair, the makers of Pokémon have had the easiest job in the world for the past 15 years or so. Making Pokémon out of random objects they see in their office lmao

When Gamefreak left the design team to the Americans

Wtf

I like these more than most actual Pokemon designs from the last 5 years.

The state of pokemon design is so sad, gen 6 is when the cracks started showing, but after that it all went downhill and it's not getting better at all. One of the only cool things to come from the new gens are regional variants, and I don't understand why they don't just make ~50new mons and then just make 70-80 regional forms/new regional evos. Hell even the regions look terrible now, super barren and devoid of anything. 2d/2.5d/top down 3d is the only good format for pokemon unless it was on a more powerful system.

Yup it's soo childish these days

let's be honest, Gamefreak is not creative enough to come up with designs like these. These are MUCH better than anything GameFreak came up with in the past 8 years or so... and it's sad cuz literally just one guy made better Pokemon designs in like 1 hour

yeah, gamefreak, honey, might wanna get that like, checked out 😔

There was many problems with Sword and Shield, but Pokémon designs was not one of them.

I love Moxie's art style. It really makes his fakemons looks so legit like real Pokemon since it shows so many expressions and shows the fakemon in all of its glory just right, not too much and not too little.

I can't believe you just made a Mewtwo that feels even more Mewtwo than Mewtwo, and it's not even a psychic type! Love these!

Go watch the video where he converted m and j TV's Pokemon in his style

These designs look actually decent! Gamefreak should definitely take note.

they should just hire moxie lol

@wannabe_recluse the ai lol

@Glitch that works too lol, ai for concepts, moxie for finalization seems to work fairly well tho

when gamefreak took a note tho

Okay just Saiyabolt's first pose shows off a 10/10 tail - like it looks so dynamic and good with all of the tails in the franchise I don't know why they've abandoned the floof and I don't know why it works so well on it

saiyabolt is cool but wouldnt really work as a pokemon because is its ability is taken away it cannot use special attacking moves

For skoulder = skull + shoulder, the "fire word" it also sounds like is smoulder, what a fire does when it's not quite gone, slightly burning but with no smoke. So the name is perfect!

also sounds like scald as well; referring to being scalded by heat. and the move Scald ofc

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY. The way he spelled it also slightly references the word "Ghoul"!!! That name was so perfect and eclipsed the quality of the one that came before 😅

i like perfection!

scolder is also a word, but it isnt really related to fire.

I thought maybe Skaldron could fit, as like skull + scald + pauldron?

Physicality is SUCH a cool ability. All of these designs are sick, amazing job

As an artist who also enjoys using ai to get concept ideas out, this is cool to see. I do agree ai could be detrimental to the industry if it's not figured out, though I disagree with other artists who outright disavow ai. It's literally another tool we can have at our disposal, and that's rad.

Fr

Yes! It's a good TOOL, but not a replacement for real human artists. It shouldn't be a final product on it's own, but it's a good base/reference for an artist to actually shape it into something

Spiketile kinda looks like a pre-evolution to scyther. Very cute and creative.

yeah! when i saw the thumbnail i was like "ooh baby scyther design?" i do think it works as its own poke too tho

I feel like the shiny versions are not getting enough recognition because holy fuck I would shiny hunt every single one of those Pokemon.

Man, I'm waiting for more this kind of art stuff. As an artist myself, this video was so inspiring. Both Spiketile and Dracospike looks so cool, especially their shiny forms. QwQ

I've always thought AI Art wouldn't take over, however, I was thinking it would actually be used for something like this where you take the pictures it creates and turn it into your own. Basically inspiration

AI in its current state is a good way to get promots for ideas of what to draw.

Yap. It helps quite a bit when your "imagining cool stuff" part of brain feels too exhausted or when there's just nothing there (insert tumbleweed reference here)

Same, that’s exactly how I thought it would be used as well. It’s a tool for an artist’s ideas, not a full takeover

nah its definitely taking over, the ai has using is crazy old. if you use a newer one it'd look indistinguishable from an actual art piece. Someone actually won the state fair recently with some AI art.

y. gyerin If it takes someone several weeks to months to make a painting, and someone created ai art in a few weeks and still won over the humans, i'd say thats a pretty good example of taking over.

This is such high production quality for only 21k subscribers. Huge props to you, I can only imagine how long this took to draw out and edit.

I mean... He has 2 million subs on his main channel..

@tophat guy haha I found out after i made this comment, still the effort amazes me

I love every single one of those designs. SOMEONE HIRE THIS MAN

The pure creativity on display here is truly impressive

You're a really great artist.

I wish Pokémon would hire people like you

Whenever I see Moxie's fakemon I always just think "that's too cool to be a real pokemon, game freak could never." Really cool designs Moxie!

In an alternate, better, universe they hire him as a concept artist.

@Cataclysm YESS

Funny how fans used to not be able to fully capture the Sugimori style back then, but now the official art style shifted just as more fans are starting to get really good at the previous style.

M.L gen 7 legendaries are clean though and zeraora.

More and more pokemon are starting to look more human, which is kinda weird to me :/

these are so cool omg 😭😭 they need to hire you for their design team 😩🙏🏻

I love the electric fighting type concept! It gives me a legendary vibe and its INSANE! I would shiny hunt that thing, I'd even say that it DESERVES that custom move!

The evolution for Spiketile should be called Mantrake. Not only is it reference to Mantids and Legless Dragons, called Drakes, but it also sounds like Mandrake, a magical plant with a supposedly powerful voice

i really really enjoy these designs, i think you did a fantastic job interpreting and making these your own. i really like dolflite!

pure talent, hope that Niantic or GameFreak take notes on this

Saiyabolt is the definition of "oh yeah, this thing is balanced"

i mean Zacian Crowned and Shadow Rider Calyrex exist so at this point it would fit right in eh?

@Fenchell Forelle I mean, yeah they are OP, but there's OP and there's "here's a mon with 175 atk and speed with a pretty good stab combo that can hit as hard on physical and special" Mixed attackers are a very good asset to a team, but they're generally held back by the fact that 1) they can't invest everything in one offensive stat and 2) said offensive stats aren't as high as a specialized attacker (either physical or special). Saiyabolt has neither of these problems AND would have the 3rd highest speed stat of the game, after Deoxys Speed and Regieleki, + be in the top 10 of the highest attack stats. That thing is a monster among monsters.

It's worth noting that Saiyabolt has an interesting weakness built in. There are moves and other effects that can overwrite a target's Special Ability. If an opponent can hit Saiyabolt with one of those, like Skill Swap, Worry Seed or Mummy, thus taking away its Physicality Ability, then any move it has that would normally be a special attack would be thoroughly hosed.

@Platonix Indeed, but those are few and far between... That weakness does exist but it's a really meager one.

@Siragon Meager or not, it does make for an interesting game design, especially when you take Nuzlockes into consideration. Because you'd already know that either this thing would be a titular Legendary or on the Elite Four, you'd have to plan out your team around this absolute beast. It's Cynthia's Garchomp all over again; find a Mon with high defense stats and a good countermove (or just bring in something with Trick Room) and this thing goes down. However, by bringing in a Mon tailored to this particular boss, you'd be bringing down the team as a whole.

I’m watching this 8 months later and I have a couple things to say Dude is amazing at art, really good at making Pokémon from any shape, and makes ACTUALLY GOOD shinies I would hunt! Like dude is a better Pokémon artist than the creators themselves! He should be hired!😊

Spiketile looks like a pre-evolution for Scyther. If it had Bug instead of Dragon I'd believe it

Alternate name idea for Dolflite: Soarpoise, a combination of soar and porpoise, which isn't exactly a dolphin but I think it's close enough for the pupose

God damn, your Pokémon look so much cooler than the original from the past 7 years. These Pokémon are creative, and not just a fridge, keys or a microwave. Love their design!

Huh I thought the “grrr it’s an inanimate object that means bad” crew had gone extinct. Klefki is a decade old now and Rotom is even older, “past seven years” my ass.

These designs are all looking so good! I wish they were real Pokémon honestly.

Now I'm sad that we won't ever see these guys in a real game. You made them look too cool, Moxie

I love this! I could watch you make pokemon designs all day. Absolutely so cool to use AI like this, since i really think this is how AI will be used by artists in the future if theyre not already ( esp in the concept design industry). I wish i could try it out for concepts myself. I myself like drawing "cursed" looking pokemon like in my profile pic haha!

I like how both a dolphin Pokémon (that could arguably be able to fly) and an electric/fighting type were made for Sc/Vi

And this... This is the true beauty of artificial intelligence. Using AI to help generate ideas is a great addition to any artists workflow.

please let us have a full screen of only the shinys of the pokemons that you made. the skoulder one is clean af 🔥

Imagine if Moxie decided to create his Pokedex of nothing but cat based Pokemon.

now all the stuff will be pushed of the table

Pokényan

Bruh Saiyabolt is my new favourite Pokémon I swear 😂 that name, the poses, the type combo, the Freiza/Vegeta fusion, the colours, THAT ULTRA NECROZMA SHINY DUUUUUUUUDE I actually can’t handle it! I’ve never been so in love with a Fakemon design in my life and I want it to be real so bad 🙏 thank you Moxie for this incredible creation

I really like those designs. To be perfectly honest, most of my favorite mons are from the first few generations. I have little love for most of what they came out in the most recent generations. Mons like Palafin are some of the most egregious. He feels like he was put in there just because they wanted a superhero Pokemon. Fidough & Dashbun... Foodmons? Really? I feel that fan artists like you do a much better job of creating new mons.

Great designs! Saiyabolt's original pose is similar a ninja from Naruto using Chidori, a lightning attack

These are some pretty cool pokemon designs! I would've loved to see them in an actual game. Just imagine if Game Freak would start a drawing contest and then put the best pokemon designs from fans into an actual game. That would be awesome! Btw: I kinda had to laugh at the Saiya name, because Saiya in Dragon Ball is a wordplay on Yasai, which means vegetable xD

Your designs are amazing!

I'm always blown away by how talented Moxie is. Your art is always the best. I also think making pokemon off of a random word generator would be a fun video to watch. (Maybe even taking the words and putting them into the Ai generator)

YEAH

That random word generator idea sounds so cool!!

Yes please, this would be so cool

If these were starter Pokemon, I'm definitely going to struggle which Pokemon I'd choose. THEY'RE ALL SO COOL

4:33 that shiny is absolutely amazing wtf

I just realized how Dolflite actually looks decently similar to Finizen. Both are dolphins and have beautiful purple shinies!

Could be evolutions

4:09 the word you were looking for was smoulder! Originally used to describe the embers and coals of a not quite dead fire it refers to a low, consistent burning. It's also more commonly used in modern-day as a descriptive of an individual giving an intense look, bonus points if said individual is typically attractive

These are better than any of the recent gens. So talented

An idea for the grass dragon 2nd stage name could be "wyrthorn" (wyrm and thorn) so it doesn't overuse the "spike" part and it sounds like an actual upgrade from the first stage

Also sounds like “wyvern” which is also a dragon

And if it had a final evolution, it could be smth like Spearociraus (Spear, ferocious, and velociraptor

@Sam good mix of words, though it sounds a little bit long to spell

Ok now this is what ai art SHOULD be used for using its generation for ideas and inspiration and something to go off of combined with your style and own vision

PLEASE make this into like a series because this is a really cool idea (making fakemon from whatever the AI throws at you)

I love these, great drawings.

This is a great example of what I think the intended utility of AI Generation tools are. They're tools for artists to use, not replacements for artists.

Would you be able to do tutorials on how you get your art this clean? :)

I felt like Spiketile could've been some sort of baby watermelon Pokémon; the black dot in it's chest being a watermelon seed. Evolving into a full-blown, watermelon-adorned dragon in its final evo.

Great artworks absolutely loved them, it's so cool that an AI can be used as concepts for awesome art like this. Saiyabolt's AI art looked like it had like a "knight" face guard with one side of the face being open with a red eye, looked menacing af.

I usually don't comment on videos, but I just have to say I deeply admire your creativity. Fantastic video! Would love to see many more of these :)

These are all so sick, I love them! I should check that site out to see if it can help me with designs for some of my characters and creatures, just so I can get an idea of how to make several characters of the same species look different yet similar, coz I'm kinda bad at making everything look the same, especially when it comes to face design.

Skoulder looks cool. But his shiny version is gorgeous!

with skoulder i think it would look awesome if you made it more like a special attacker kinda mage-like have it float like with a pair of extra hands above like its doing in the ai paint

4:20 for skoulder you combined skull and shoulder but it sounds like smolder is in there as well which works perfectly

little bit of scalding in it as well lol

@Ken Kaneki true its like the perfect name

Fr and the shiny is GORGEOUSSSSSSSS

This is a really cool way to generate pokemon ideas. What you created came out looking so awesome! Although some may not like the concept of using AI generation at all, I think this is a nice way to draw inspiration and I wish gamefreak would consider something like this in their brainstorming/design process. Really unique results!

I just stumbled across this and I absolutely love your designs

Very fun to watch, all of them looked incredible.

Do a sequel to this! It was super fun! You should also draw PM7s Pokémon He used AI to get them! He did 18 one for each type!

I love how you dont waste time and dont try sooo hard to be funny. Appreciate the video!!

Bro these drawings are unreal. I really really loved the spiketile evolution line shinies. They were such a beautiful colour scheme

Actually much more creative and aesthetically pleasing than most of the latest Pokemon

Deigns are super cool. A lot of the AI prompts looked like clumps of existing Pokemon mashed together without much attempt to blend them, but the designs you then made based off of them looked polished and distinct without feeling like they were taken from combinations of exiting Pokemon pieces. As a bit of a point on the naming, I'd have given the grass dragons a "thorn" theme rather than "spike" to drive home the grass type. Baby dragon also had a bit of a mantis vibe, but exploring that would take him more into dragon-bug territory.

This is epic, I especially love what you did with the last one, absolutely incredible!

All of these could so be real Pokémon and they all look absolutely amazing

Damn, I loved all of them... Amazing designs... Way better than most of the legit Pokemon we got over the last couple of gens. Keep it up! ;)

Ideas for the Grass Dragon names: Cabbagon (Cabbage + Dragon) and Celerake (Celery + Drake). They both kinda reminded me of cabbages and celery with the way you designed them and their colourscheme so I thought I would include them in the names

change the cabbage into spike because the first form dont have cabbage

@JOEL region Spike is way too generic of a word for a Grass Dragon Pokemon. Just calling it a Spike Dragon doesn't fit well for the Grass Type. What if I changed the Cabbage to Lettuce and now name it Lettizard (Lettuce & Lizard) Cabbages i'll admit don't have that spiky feel to it however, if you look at strands of Lettuce, they can look like the frills on a Lizard. Adding the Vegetable elements into this pokemon's name gives it a unique identity. It starts off as a Lettuce Lizard and then ends up as a Celery Dragon since Celery are long vegetable sticks technically. My point is, just adding spike in it's name with Dragon is very cliche and basic since Dragons are already spiky thanks to their scales. I mean you wouldn't rename Dragonite as Dragospike because he has a spike on his head would you? Or changing Hydreigon into Hyspikon since it has spikes all over it right? It sounds boring and bland

@SMG lettuce better

I'd trade my soul for the skill and talent you have.

Moxie: We don't have a dolphin Pokemon yet. Scarlet and Violet: Allow me to introduce myself.

They all look so awesome, I especially like the electric and fighting type Pokémon you drew. The original pose you started off with reminded me of Kakashi using his Chidori which would be perfect for this Pokémon because the move is also called lightning blade

Yes you saw what I saw

The shinies look so cool! I love your shiny concepts!!

would love to see some other creature designs! Perhaps based on digimon, or combining pokemon with something else (DnD monsters, Monster Hunter etc.) :D

These are all so cool and interesting! I would totally put all of them on my team!

Same

omg hii

my life needs more of this. I just really love your creativity and the way you draw them make them look like real pokemon! please keep using this AI and make more videos with more amazing fan made pokemon

I think it's hilarious how when you looked up Electric/Fighting it gave you a bunch of Pika clones, but the first official Electric/Fighting we got was a Pika clone 😂

No lie, Saiyabolt looks like a straight up legendary that would be a cool concept for a movie. Nintendo need to hire you.

I like the name skoulder 'cuz it makes me think of "scalding hot". This is such a fun video! It's really cool to watch you find the design potential within the generated nonsense and bring it to life!!

Honestly to me, Skoulder and Saiyabolt look like the new gen paired legendaries if their sizes were similar. Really really cool stuff man.

These are all so incredibly unique, I love them all so much. Who knew that Ai could have the power to create Pokémon that spark so much creativity?

That electric fighting and grass dragon final evo can definitely get into a Pokedex and everyone will love them.

Man those designs are so sick, each of them,totally Pokemon vibes not the gimmicks we got. Gamefreak will only benefit if they will make pokemons like PokeFans would. I love your Channel.

This series is awesome and your pokemon look so much cooler than the new pokemons coming out 😅

Amazing video and now I am curious on how you draw these Pokemon so clean!

I'd honestly love a part 2 for this!

Bro this was some insane art. I would 100% love to actually catch all of those in pokemon.

Love what you did with spiketile and dracospike's shinies. That's literally my favorite color combo

I interpreted all of the original images completely differently than you. Really shows the skill and creativity this requires! All the designs look great and feel so much like actual Pokemon

Such a creative and satisfying use of AI.

These are almost too cool to be Pokémons.. They are more in the Digimon directions! love it!

Can't wait to see these Pokemon in an actual pokemon game!

These were so cool!!! I feel like Saiyabolt would charge electro ball like the chidori from naruto 😂 also LOVE that you included their shiny forms; Spiketile and Dracospike were my faves 🙌🏽

I was imagining Bolt Rush being Chidori in Pokémon, between that first pose and the whole thing about Chidori speeding up the user.

I agree with the Naruto but I think it’s more of a rasengan

Been saying since early developments on AI art that this will eventually become a really popular aid for concepting, it's just so easy to get some inspiration. You're proving me right! :)

Only concept? The ai from today is many times better than this artist ever will be!

@Hedgehog Zone sure, keep telling yourself that 😆

Dracospike reminds me of a Triceratops meets Parasaurolophus, really awesome designs!

These are sickkk!!! I want Spiketile and it's evolution so bad!!! Also I wish they would hire you for pokemon ideas or at minimum have you consult on shiny designs because I think most shiny versions are not really desirable but yours are crazy awesome and something people would really want.

Very cool video! I'd watch every video if you just did this over and over
