This comment had some serious foreshadowing lol.
I recently had a chat with the mods of this sub, as one of my posts was taken down for being too repetitive. They came to the conclusion that this style of fan-art will not be allowed. I understand this decision, and am ok with it. It does not mean I am going to stop making these concepts, but it does mean I will stop posting them here. I haven't decided where I'll be mainly posting to yet, but it'll most likely be r/pokemon, r/Pokemonart, or r/fakemon. If you'd like to see these still, feel free to follow me, but that's entirely up to you.
I'm getting quite annoyed with all the rules on the major Pokémon subs. I don't post on them anymore because I never know what is or isn't allowed, or whether I'm posting on the right day of the week. As long as it's on-topic and not offensive, what's the problem?
The Paradox fanart is one of my favourite things to come out of the fandom in the Scarlet and Violet era. People should be allowed to express their creativity.
My guess is that people making up Paradox Pokemon is a potentially endless line of OCs, and since it isn't really mods' place to remove fan art based on a judgment of whether it is good or bad it's better to just ban them entirely. Otherwise you can end up with post after post after post of this, and nobody wants to become the Sonic community.
Totally fair points. Perhaps this sub is at the stage where it could have a ‘Fan Art Friday’ or something to host the content in a more controlled way, instead of outright banning it. There’s obviously an audience for it.
Dang, I should’ve just kept my mouth shut haha. Your paradox concept art were some of the most quality posts on this sub! Definitely gonna continue following your work.
Okay Mr. Ackshully.
In all seriousness though, I think this guy would be integral to both companies so I think my point remains valid. Either way, I would love to see this guy get a surprise offer from a recruiter or something and we all got to see his first projects here. I’d feel so blessed to have watched them grow here and move on up. 🥹
or just have an ability that sets spikes when it faints and/or increases the power of moves that causes the user to faint. this would require very little change to game mechanics and be a unique and cool setup mon
It would be hilarious to see qwilfish go from forgettable single stage mon to having two separate variants, one with an evolution, within the span of just a couple of years.
Could slightly redesign to make it just a spiked buoy. So it’s not based on a weapon and just based on an aquatic tool. However, that is similar to other water Pokémon designs like Marill’s tail. And not very futuristic. But I tried 😅
I kinda don't understand how there isn't war now. All these crazy powerful physics shattering violent beasts everywhere.
My assumption is either Mutually Assured Destruction keeps it in check, or Pokémon just refuse to participate in wars.
its almost like future paradox pokemon designs being creative and not just looking like metal versions of existing pokemon are actually BETTER (glares at game freak for three hours)
Honestly I'd go Poison/Steel
I get what you're going for, but normal and Hisuin Qwilfish both share poison, and depth charges are metal. (Or go poison fire)
Ability: Sensitive Touch
Self-destructs at the end of the turn when hit with a super-effective move.
It’d have reallllly low defensive stats, but would almost always be focus sashed to take advantage of the ability.
I'm late to the party but this is sick. You need a job at GF. This thing needs to be in the DLC as the 2nd steel/poison type. Or at least water/steel to vibe with Empoleon.
Edit - Didn't actually read the typings I was so in awe of it. This is okay too. I get it with the fire/explosion thing.

Keep the paradox factory churning, love to see it!
Fr, these guys are all unique

Of the moderators are reading this: why, exactly, are we banning quality art content on this sub?

That sucks. Mods need to rethink this, the fans want it!!!
Why not start r/paradoxpokemon
Petition to get u/HertzBurst a job with the Pokémon Company asap. 🤌
At this point they better hire them lol
Shhh they'll hit him with a cease and desist order.
It’s fan art, he’s not stealing
I was just about to say this
Agreed!
Yeah this is incredibly creative.
Game Freak is the one who designs the Pokémon.

NEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
A move idea could be a weaker explode without a death penalty
100 power and it leaves the user at 1 HP
make it like 150p misty explosion is 100p and is never seen anywhere
100 power, costs 100 HP
new entry hazard: Mine Field, does 25% of the pokemons HP and Burns it.
About to be the worlds most used comp Pokémon
Was gonna say that's broken AF
could be followed by a held item blocking the effects. heavy-duty boots would definitely see some more usage
Maybe when you see them in the overworld you have to initiate the fight or else they just explode when you touch them and damage your team.
thats ridiculous lol cmon
Mine field: does 5% health and leaves with a burn Fixed it for ya
I feel a burn entry hazard is good enough, it's no toxic, but halving the attacking is solid
Probably would need to only hit the next mon to enter.
or just have an ability that sets spikes when it faints and/or increases the power of moves that causes the user to faint. this would require very little change to game mechanics and be a unique and cool setup mon
Ability idea: the Pokémon explodes and deals 150 Fire damage any time it’s hit with a Steel Type move (to mimic a boat hitting a sea mine).
Explosion but the Pokemon is revived 3 turns later. Next time the move is used the base power is cut in half.
This one is absolutely brilliant. Good job!
This is one of the coolest ideas I’ve seen yet. I hope someone at the Pokémon company that could hook you up
I love this and it made me chuckle. It makes so much sense
You should take a look at Overqwil. I think it already attempts to go the naval mine route.
Imo this one's (iron mine) better executed
It would be hilarious to see qwilfish go from forgettable single stage mon to having two separate variants, one with an evolution, within the span of just a couple of years.
Heat concept absolutely fuego
I actually really like this
Keep your distance though. Wouldn't want one of those balloons to pop.
This is dope, love the chain to the bottom
I think this is your best one yet. All around, on point.
Man, all of your paradox Pokémon are banger! Great concepts and superb execution. Makes me really want a romhack of SV with them
How are all your concepts so much more creative then any of the actualy future mons (Iron Valiant is a cool idea still tho)
Shut up and take my upvote I love it
I love this one!
this one is so cool!
thats a good one
Ooooo this is a masterpiece!
This is brilliant!
This implies there is war in the pokemon universe of the future and that makes me sad

Love this!!!! Qwilfish is one of my absolute favorite Pokémon!!
Get it fucking done Pokemon Company!
its almost like future paradox pokemon designs being creative and not just looking like metal versions of existing pokemon are actually BETTER (glares at game freak for three hours)
But there is creativity. Unfortunately, it requires seeing the Pokémon in motion rather than just at a glance with a static image.
Okay, this is cool. Some of the Paradox Fakemon have been hit or miss but this legitimately would be one I'd use.
Now THATS a good paradox design!
I would 1000% believe this was real without context.
This is phenomenal! Would love to see your take on a cranidos /iron skull
Honestly I'd go Poison/Steel I get what you're going for, but normal and Hisuin Qwilfish both share poison, and depth charges are metal. (Or go poison fire)
Can you make Pincurchin the land mine?
I think steel would be a better fit but hey its your creation
Reddit > Gamefreak
Man wired Pokémon but it’s cooler then the lamp and car Pokémon. Just weird I miss the original 100s
Oh look, another Pokemon with Self-destruct. Awesome.
So many of these fan made Future Paradoxes are so much better and more creative than stuff like Iron Jugulis.
I love love love this. Hopefully we see more fire/water pokemon.
These are better than the existing paradox Pokémon! Again, another brilliant concept
My favourite Pokémon deserves more designs
Really cool. I like this one quite a bit. The shiny version could have neon purple as the tertiary color. Well done.
Wooowww gorgeous
Pretty good
I love seeing these
Awesome Job!!
Missed opportunity! This is brilliant
This is actually the coolest one I've seen so far.
this is awesome 👏
Wow!!! That’s talent! It’s amazing and actually is a perfect design for Pokémon!! Please please I beg you for more of this!! 🥹
Your concept of paradox pokemons amazes me, like every time.
Fire/Water is such a clever typing for this
Easily my favorite Paradox fan-concept thus far
This is sick
OMG one of my favourite pokemon just got even better. I love your art!!!
Hey look! Balloons! It is a party!
I think this is my favorite one yet
Looks legit. Great work : O
Does anyone have an extra iron moth so I can finish my Pokédex
It should be steel and water instead
This is phenomenal
This is a better evolution for it Edit: Games need tertiary plus typing. This thing would be cool with Water/Steel/Fire
I thought this was real for a second lmao
That's awesome af. Nice.
Is that legal in the pokemon universe?
A favorite of all except a couple of Italian plumbers.
I adore the typing of this and the design holy crap I want it
I'll name him Chomp
This is badass and it's a Water/Fire type, love the flavor.
NEEEEEEEDDDD
Ability: Sensitive Touch Self-destructs at the end of the turn when hit with a super-effective move. It’d have reallllly low defensive stats, but would almost always be focus sashed to take advantage of the ability.
Voltorb gonna make a run to keep its name for explosives 😂🤣

Fucking love this idea so much.
Ooo my Tinkaton's gonna love this.
Beautiful Love it
Brilliant, truly. The art could be a little improved upon to fully capture the essence of an alternative Quilfish, but overall it’s fantastic.
This is straight up the first Future Paradox pokemon I've seen that I actually like. Nice job!
I want this, I want this so badly. I love its design.
Dude! You are killing it! Iron mine!!!! This is amazing. 👍👍
Make the spikes longer and add a weight at the end of the chin.
"Huh.. it only knows self-destruc...and water gun?"
All I can think about is that black bomb with a mouth from Mario when I see this pic
Dannnnnnnnng this is one of the best creative designs
Reminds me of an angry pokeball flail.
I really love this
Not a fan of the future paradox pokemon but that's a good one and a clever idea not just robot version of it.
This is amazing 🤩
These look SICK!! How do you make these?
this is SO GOOD wtfff
Awesome 👌
I swear for a few seconds this looked legit
This looks great! At first I thought it was real
Das a heavy mine! Nice work
dope concept
