Pokemon Fan Designs Five Paradox Pokemon

A prolific Pokemon fan artist has recently devised five new Paradox Pokemon, reimagining critters such as Gengar and Rowlet in entirely new forms. The work was praised by the Pokemon community, which admired the diversity and ingenuity of these unofficial designs.

Paradox forms were originally introduced in the ninth generation of Pokemon games, with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Depending on which game is being played, these monsters appear as either the distant past or far future versions of normal creatures. Due to the uniqueness of the concept, Paradox Pokemon has inspired countless fans to come up with new fan art since the release of the Gen 9 games in late 2022.

A Pokemon fan called HertzBurst has recently shared five artworks detailing new future Paradox Pokemon with the community: Iron Orb, Ghoulish Terror, Iron Bank, Iron Jaws, and Iron Needle. Iron Orb turned the Gen 2 Rowlet into a cute metal flying orb with the Grass/Electric-type.The Ghost/Dark-type Ghoulish Terror, on the other hand, reimagined Gengar with a third eye on its forehead, and was inspired by a leaked prototype for Mega Gengar, according to its creator.

Fan Devises New Pokemon Paradox Forms

The Normal/Ground-type Iron Bank was inspired by Lechonk, and it stood out due to resembling a piggy bank. Another interesting design was the Ground/Rock-type Iron Jaws, which turned the Gen 3 Pokemon Trapinch into an excavator. Iron Needle presented a metal Poison/Fairy-type version of Skorupi, turning its scorpion tail into a huge needle. HertzBurst’s work was adored by the Pokemon community, obtaining 3,200 upvotes.

This is not the first time that HertzBurst has created and shared amazing Pokemon fan art with the community, though. A few weeks ago, the fan designed a future Paradox form for Porygon-Z called Iron Backup. The design had interesting lore, as Iron Backup was a restored version of a Porygon-Z that was made using data from Porygon2. In the drawing, the critter had a metallic body, and blue lights over its body.

Despite Pokemon Scarlet and Violet being originally released almost two years ago, fan-made Paradox forms for Pokemon continue to be popular in the community. A few months ago, for example, one fan devised past Paradox forms for Quagsire and Wooper. The creator drew a huge prehistoric Quagsire bathing in the water with several tiny Woopers around it in a cute scene. Hopefully, other creative fans will continue to share their amazing artwork with the Pokemon community.
