Description
A few days ago, I caved and looked at all of the Black/White Pokémon. These three are easily my favorites. Can you guess why?Meguroco, Waruvile and the confusingly similarly-named Waruvial are the first of their types: dark and ground.
They are also just fantastic. Aside from the mere fact that they're crocodiles with eyes like sunglasses, they have such swagger and attitude in their sprites, in their smug smiles.
You may not have seen them before. I left all the patterns intact, but drew them in a stylized way.

Thanks! Crocodiles were always one of my favorite things to draw growing up. So these guys are pretty much the definition of my art style

I love these guys! As soon as Black and Whitecome out over here, I'm thinking of making a Waruvial (or whatever it's English name will be) part of my main team in Black. Those things seem so cool and the whole evoultionary line is cool too!

Oh, I know it's gonna be on my team. In fact, I could probably have a team of five of them and my starter, the giant narwhal sea lion.
But seriously, I'm looking forward to seeing what grows on me during the adventure

I know! While the giant narwhal sea lion as you called it (XD) is gonna be part of my future Pokemon White team and I've got THAT team pretty much planned out already, I still haven't decided which Pokemon I'll have for Black except for that crocidille and the flaming boar thing. XD

I like waiting and seeing as I go along. Some of my favorite Pokemon, I wouldn't have necessarily loved on the basis of their design alone, but after having them on my team they really grew on me. Like Typhlosion. However, the criminal crocs are way too awesome to deny.

The instant I saw those guys I thought, 'Kremlings!' Which is only awesome because it really makes up for them not being in DKCReturns.
Seems that I wasn't the only one who thought that, lol. They look awesome, I will definitely try to catch one as soon as I get the game myself.
Love how you drew them I adore your colouring style, with the textures and all.

Thanks! I'm really happy with how the coloring came out on these guys too.

I love these guys, too! I'm definitely going to try training one once I get Pokemon White this March. XD And Ground/Dark is a neat new type combination, too. Personally I am in absolute LOVE with Ulgamoth because 1) Bug/Fire is an awesome combo and 2) he's a fire moth! That is so... AWESOME. I also really like the line of cell Pokemon with Ranculus because... well, cell biology is my main focus in school.

The Ranculus line is really cool. I guess there's not a linguistics Pokemon- wait. Unown. Dangit! I caught all of them and all I was supposed to get for it was the satisfaction?! Bah >_>

Haha, Pokemon.
Wow, I can't help but imagine the game designers getting their inspiration from elsewhere coming up with this breed.

I was as Pokemon-obsessed as any kid back in its heydey, added to the fact I was a game-loving girl already... but I spent years not caring about it at all, and now look at me! Right back into it, caught up on a minor wave of Black and White enthusiasm.
I'm sure it's just me seeing what I want to see. But you never know. Since they're supposed to be based on criminals/thieves, they also remind me a bit of Croco from SMRPG.

I just took a look at the list, and I must say, a very good selection of Pokemon, Jaroda and Warubiaru in particular look to be my favorites, but I'll have to wait for Smogon's assessment. Speaking of which, what do you think of these community-created Pokes? [link]

Those are cool! I really love Pyroak, Cyclohm and Krilowatt. And Arghonaut is brilliant if for its name alone.

I swear I am going to LOVE these new Pokemon games coming out soon, I think that many of the new pokemon are intriguing more people than they let on x3
I do admit though, I like this~ I love their attitudes and the expressions they have. Just so righteous!

Altermentality In reply to MasterPeach [2010-12-14 19:43:54 +0000 UTC]
Some of the new Pokémon are weird or bland, but some of them are real winners. Like this guy, the buffalo with the afro, and the baggy-pants lizards... I, for one, am going to draw many of them, and am looking forward to a new Pokémon adventure
Thanks!

Indeed, I'm calling them the Kremling Pokémon. Looking through the list, I already picked out nicknames for a few when I catch them... I like Kaptain K for this guy...

Yeah, that's what I thought when I first saw them, so I purposefully drew them a bit more Rare-ish

Thanks! I'm really looking forward to Black and White too. I was going to wait and discover all the new Pokémon as I went along the adventure, but I was already seeing people draw some, and I grew impatient XD Some of the new Pokémon are really cool, others are just weird, and some are both

Lie the other generations, with their goodies and mistakes xD but yeah!!! I was doing the same thing as you... but =Cachomon wrote a journal with the new pokedex and well... couldn't resist xD We need to wait to march!!! >w< and the we can enjoy xD
Which starter will you take? .w. I'm taking Tepig xD I'm a fire pokemon lover and always choose the fire one even if I don't like the pokemon that much at the beginning *cofcofcofcofchimcharcofcofcofcosidontlikemonkeysthatmuchcofcofcof* xD

Altermentality In reply to Alba-Jimenez [2010-12-15 03:10:01 +0000 UTC]
Tepig is adorable! I actually haven't decided. I do like Tepig, because he's cute and his later evolutions remind me of Wind Waker style creatures. I like Snivy, but not so much that I MUST have him, and I feel like everyone's going to choose him anyway. I'm leaning heavily towards Oshawott though, because otters are one of my favorite animals, and I love his second two evolutions. So yeah, probably Oshawott.

Alba-Jimenez In reply to Altermentality [2010-12-15 14:58:57 +0000 UTC]
xD many people is choosing Oshawott. I have to say than at the beginning I didn't like it like... nothing! but then with it's evos I was like " oAo that's new!" so, if I can, I want to do the same thing I did in my Red version (like eons ago xD) and have in my team the 3 starters o3o hehehe~

I really didn't like Oshawott either, even though he's an otter... he was just so goofy-looking! But he's grown on me, and I really love his evolutions.

Alba-Jimenez In reply to Altermentality [2010-12-16 15:22:12 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, the evolutions are quite nice, I liked the concept of samurai pokemon. When I saw his last evolution, I was sure it was like a Big otter from the Amazonas or so... never thougth in a Sea lion
