I chose a specific Charizard for my contest entry
#126 Magmar
Is Magmar a blue-footed booby? A karura? A dirty joke? Or maybe all three, or none of the above?
Well, we decided to make it more of an echidna, since it has spikes on its back, a beak, and prominent claws. We also reallywanted to remove the head boobs, so we gave it nicer fiery eyebrows.
We replaced the flame on the tip of the tail, which was quite common in Gen 1, with a flow flame design throughout the tail and smoke at the tip. The big shoulder flames are reminiscent of Magmortar.
Magmar also has several design elements that parallel our take on Electabuzz, since they were designed as a pair. Both have echidna elements, a cloudy/smoky design on the tail, a black elemental marking on the chest, prominent eyebrows, and similar eyes and head shapes.
magmars keep showing up inside my house and i’m sick of it. my insurance wont cover the damage.
Y'all know the drill at this point. Shiny time.
Both of these nearly ran from me.
Definitely not this one though.
Heard the sparkle, took me a while to find which pokemon was shiny. Thankfully it didn’t see me flailing around and run away.
Also, a bit of shame. There should be another shiny Rufflet here, but I did something stupid. So, the was a Ralts outbreak in the Icelands, and right nearby it’s location a shiny Rufflet appeared. I told myself that I’d clear the Ralts outbreak, then catch the Rufflet. Well, I cleared the outbreak…. guess what I forgot to do afterwards….♀️ I am ashamed.
That’s it for now. Until next time.
