Pokemon Infinite Fusion: Infinitely Fun?

[skinstealer]

oh god it has been too long since our last update. we have been doing a lot of stuff in IF, but haven't had the energy to blog about it! we may do some more catch up this week, but for now i'm going to talk about yesterday's session.

a while back we sat down and recorded some faves from the newest sprite pack, and yesterday we made it our mission to wonder trade for components so we could get some of these awesome wishlist mons. we ended up getting about half of them, which feels great! we're going to try and start making OCs out of them before the next sprite pack drops, using our pokemon OC generator, as well as submitting some dex entries for the ones that really speak to us. maybe we'll post about that here, maybe we'll do it in our blog thread. we will see!

for a change of pace, we're going to go one by one to really give these things a spotlight, even if it's just a sentence or two.

[image description: a beedril/lycanroc (midday) fusion, featuring a black lycanroc body, white countershading, white beedril wings angled vertically, deep blue bug eyes and inner ears, a beedril tail, and black antennae.]

this thing is so cute! while the vertical wing placement means this thing definitely cannot fly (as opposed to it being on the back), it's really cute and sweet, and a clever reuse of beedril parts. it's always really charming when a sprite uses assets directly from bases and meshes them together, and reminds us of how we used to make fusions ourselves as kids. the blue eyes are our favorite part, and as people here probably know, we're suckers for black, white, and accent color palettes.

[image description: a lileep/ekans fusion with a pale green snakelike body with pink countershading, itty bitty legs, a pink rattle tail, green lileep fronds, pink false eyees, and a dark pink inner mouth with pink real eyes inside.]

wow! this guy stood out to us immediately in the new pack, and we love its weird little body shape and distinct face. we can imagine this thing waddling around no problem, and getting into weird places.

[image description: a cradily/arbok fusion with a long, pink snake-like body with white markings (including false eyes on its arbok hood and a white set of rings on the belly, a cradily head with more false eyes and white real eyes inside its mouth, darker pink fronds and some weird green spots in place of highlights. it also has nubby little legs, but is much bigger than the previous pokemon]

this guy is the previous one's big sister. she is so huge and fun, and we always love when a spriter does matching evolution lines. we almost want to draw art of these two, but don't really have a lot of time to do so. if we do, we'll post it here.

[image description: a very dramatic looking darkrai/ninetales fusion, featuring ninetales' body but darkrai's distinct marking patterns and features. it has a black body with vivid blue outlines and shading, magenta tips on its tails, a magenta darkai neckpiece, cyan eyes, and a yellow darkrai headpiece.]

knux helped us get this one, and wow, what a stunner. it is absolutely beautiful to look at! even with a straightforward design, you really get the sense that this is a legendary. necessary to hex in petz.

[image description: a latias/porygon fusion, featuring porygon's body shape, a polygonal latias head and airplane wings, and a lime green and white palette.]

we made a LOT of latias fusions yesterday, mainly due to there being a lot in the previous sprite pack made by one spriter in particular, Oz. we absolutely love their style of latias/latios sprites, and plan on getting the latios versions of these guys as well to make cute pairs. so so so so cute.

[image description: a latias/porygon2 fusion, featuring porygon2's body shape, a latias head and airplane wings, and a pale pink and mint color scheme. it also has a magenta triangle on its chest.]

another cutie! sadly we aren't as huge on the porygon-z out of this line, or we'd make a full set for sure. still, having a latias looking like a rubber duck is perfect, and we really like this thing.

[image description: a latias/snorlax fusion with a snorlax's big chunky body, munchlax's dress-like torso trim, a big fluffy collar, latias wings and ears, and claw-tipped hands. its palette is yellow and white, and it has closed snorlax eyes and a big smile.]

this one had us absolutely smitten, and it breaks our heart we don't immediately have a latios to pair with it. the yellow color is extra cute, and provides a sweet vibe! 10/10 would hug

[image description: a litwick/eevee fusion with an eevee body, melted candle wax head with a black flame, eevee ears with just a bit of melting and dark gray tips, a single visible pink eye, a little smile, a melted neck ruff, and a melty tail tipped in gray.]

we see a cute spooky eevee, we get the cute spooky eevee. this is a really simple design that is soooo cute, and we really want to put it in petz. really soft and gentle vibes, especially with the pastel pink accent.

[image description: a meganium/parasect fusion with a green parasect body, a long meganium head and neck with spiracles lining it, huge pinchy claws, and a massive lilac mushroom with a white floral marking on its back. there's also some white on where the mushroom connects to the body, as if slowly taking over it.]

this one's really dramatic! there were a lot of parasect fusions in this update, and this one is really up there on ones we like. it's so buggy, but so pretty.

[image description: a mew/bastiodon fusion resembling an extremely stretched out mew wearing a shipping truck as a sort of "shell." the truck pulls from bastiodon's facial features, and has some resemblance to the moving truck from gen 3, with a pokeball pattern on its red shipping compartment. the rest of the truck is gray with a blue windsheld, red eyes, and black tires, and the mew under the truck is a pale, low saturation red with blue eyes.]

this one was THE goal of the session, and technically not from this sprite pack. it's a mew under a truck reference for the most recent "going somewhere" contest, and sprited by knux! we were so excited to get a shieldon in our wonder trading so we could make this thing. so so so funny. can't wait to make it an OC.

[image description: a mew/trevenant fusion resembling a blue mew in a blue bubble, squeezed in place by a curling set of black branches. it is held up by four legs tipped in mew paws, and has floating hands supported by more bubbles.]

wow, what a beauty. this was one of our BIG goals, because look at how crazy this guy is! it's a mew in a tree mech! that's so awesome.

[image description: a parasect/aurorus fusion with a distinct gummy/slime feel thanks to its teal color palette with dramatic blue shading. it has an aurorus body with bright chartruese frills, parasect eyes, and shelf-like mushrooms embedded into its chest and back leg. it has a big parasect mushroom on its back and both it and its body are covered in lighter teal spots. it has a spiraling frond tail with mushrooms growing off of it and a chartruese tip. it is surrounded by spores.]

jesus this thing rolled good colors. absolutely stunning! i can totally picture this thing elegantly exploring a forest.

[image description: a pidgeotto/wigglytuff fusion that resembles a furby. it has a deep cyan body with a lighter cyan belly, fluffy tail and hair tuft, with a green faceplate and pastel green eyes. its beak is a light lime green, matching its claw feet. it has black pidgeotto eye markings as well.]

we usually don't go for reference fusions but this is very much an exception. it's a furby! we literally just recently had Brain Thoughts about furbies! and now we have one. no idea how this is going to fit into our pokemon OC canon.

[image description: a sandygast/golbat fusion made of drippy pink sand, with a wide gaping mouth in the same style as sandygast's- this time featuring pale green fangs. it resembles golbat in overall shape, with golbat wings and slight drippy feet. it has a black face mask and little green eyes, as well as a pink and white shovel sticking out of its head.  rogue grains of sand drift off of its wings.]

this guy is so silly. we really like sandygast fusions that work with the funky mouth!

[image description: a sandygast/goodra fusion with a pale tan goodra body made out of sand and embedded with pink and green rocks- two of those rocks making up cheek blushies on it. it has a wide, happy looking sandygast mouth, and a black underbelly. it has black and green sandygast eyes, a pink shovel sticking out of its head, nubby arms, and a pile of sand under its body. ]

we love beach weirdos so much, and this one has the sandygast mouth again! it looks so happy.

[image description: a snowrunt/slowpoke resembling a blue, greeen and white slowpoke under a pale green kotatsu with a blue trim and diamond patterns. it looks very content.]

this one is super simple but really adorable. can't decide if the OC version just sits around, or carries it  on its back like a shell...

[image description: a stufful/miltank fusion resembling a toy-like miltank with soft features, beady eyes, little ears and horns, a black bell on the end of its blue tail, a blue checker bandana, and black hooves. it has a blue and white cow pattern all over it, and a blue strawberry on its belly.]

saving the best for last, LOOK at this thing. it is the sweetest, and tailor made for our system member iris. this pattern was actually an accident- we were trying to reroll for the stufful-patterned alt with a strawberry belly, not realizing there was one with standard cow patterns and a bandana. definitely our highest priority for an OC.

this took a lot of time to assemble but we hope you enjoy our guys! now to run off and figure out some character stuff...
