Regional variant Pokemon have been a thing for a while now, but it was only recently in Pokemon Legends Arceus that we saw regional variants of Starter Pokemon. To this point, only the starters in those games have received regional variants, but what if EVERY Starter Pokemon had one? In today's video, we are going to continue to explore this idea, as I showcase some more regional variant evolutions that I have created for more Starter Pokemon!

  • That Skeledirge variant is everything I didn't know I always wanted. Plus that Quackaval is STUNNING.
  • @MatchieMun
    Okay, hear me out. The bird for the Skeledirge variant appears in the mouth (like some sort of animation) as a nod to the Egyptian Plover which actually gets into the mouths of crocodiles to pick bits of food from between their teeth.
  • @Alphamerican
    Water/Ghost Feraligatr, Water/Ghost Swampert, Water/Ghost Primarina, Water/Ghost Dewott split evolution, now Water/Ghost Quaquaval? The concepts and artwork are great, Oscar Belmonte is one of the best artists around, but man some more type variety from you would be nice.
  • I’m enjoying this new Quaquaval design as a fan of Quaquaval already
  • @heedthedead
    Quaquaval is one of my favourite pokemon of all time, so seeing her get some love is pretty fun
  • Before he said Rilaboom was based on classic music I thought he was based on Joey Ramone and late 70s punk.
  • @MrMiraculon
    8:15 The bird should have been on the crown on Skeledirge's head, flaming orange and yellow like it's original look to match the gold. Many pharaohs had ornate headpieces that often included some animal as a centerpiece, and the bird could have easily been Ra inspired with a small sun orb over its own head as well, controlling it with psychic powers.
  • I like Incineroar's design, but I don't think rock typing works since it doesn't have enough rock aesthetics to communicate that it's a rock type. It looks even more like more like a dark type now.
  • @madrangadan5210
    Mate, that Incineroar is awesome! Love the whole primal beast look!
  • @nickbond8102
    Quaquavak needs some help. I'm still waiting for my pirate duck....
  • @RealB0ssMak3r
    Good idea for Incineroar to be quadrapedal, but tail actually looks worse. Because the flame is more or less a collar and it would work if it was a fire bone collar to represent the past, but the way your friend drew this Incineroar looks like someone removed his tail.
  • Quacklaval- ballet is from France. Swan Lake is a ballet. Perhaps water ice, to bring in some Russian inspiration. Too obvious for a water bird? Or too close to swanna?
  • @Wildcatt1999
    As a huge Incineroar fan, I can see where people are coming from when they say they don't like it being bipedal. Quaquaval tho, I seriously don't know why it's so disliked because I think it's a great design. That being said, I think the designs in this video are all really cool.
  • @ChampionBlaze
    Skeledirge was easily the best and Quaquaval turned out absolutely incredible!!!
  • @ShadowEclipex
    Skelidurge regional variant's bird could just be hiding in the crown of flames. Could be a cute part of it's animation where it peaks out every so often.
