Summary
A talentedPokemonfan recently made a Paldean regional variant for Pidgey, turning the bird creature into an Electric/Flying-type. ThePokemoncommunity loves to create fan art depicting the franchise’s most iconic monsters, and Pidgey is certainly one of them.
While other Pokemon such as Pikachuand Charizard may be the most popular creatures belonging tothe first generation ofPokemongames, Pidgey is one of the most common picks for starting trainers. Pidgey looks like a regular pigeon, and it can be caught essentially everywhere in the early parts ofPokemon Red and Blue, becoming quite a memorable and recognizable monster because of this.
Now, aPokemonfan called MDSM_art created a new version of Pidgey. Named Paldean Pidgey, this new form is a Flying/Electric-type variant, and it puts an interesting spin on an otherwise fairly common creature. The main physical difference of this Pidgey is the colors of its feathers, as the original version uses mostly brown and cream colors. The Paldean Pidgey featured in the fan art, on the other hand, has dark blue and grey feathers, as well as yellow details resembling thunderbolts. According to MDSM_art, the fan artist may even create evolutions for the creature soon, making more amazing fan art for the community.
Fan-Made Regional Pokemon are Popular Fanart Topics
This is not the only fan art depicting an alternative version of Pidgey and its evolutions, though. Last year, a fan made animpressive Legendary version of Pidgeot. The animation created by the artist looked very good, showing a 30-second clip of the mighty bird flying above the clouds. This version differentiated itself from the normal one due to details such as sparkling wings and some metal parts.
Fan-made regional variants of Pokemon can be interesting ways to reimagine classic creatures, and another fan just shared quite an amusing artwork, aregional Oddish variant with unique evolutions. In this alternative version, Oddish became infected with insects that slowly took control of its body, eventually evolving into a bug-like Gloom, and then to a third, unnamed form that resembled an Oddish being carried by a huge butterfly.
Regional variants and Legendary versions are not all the types of fan art thatPokemonfans come up with, though. Earlier this week, a Pokemon fan made anew evolution for Exeggutor. Inspired by the Alolan version of Exeggutor, this fan designed Exeggutive, a huge creature with three gigantic necks that greatly resembled a hydra version of a palm tree.
