Description
Surrounded by mountains and forests, a city full of glass buildings shines at the center of the valley. But suddenly, the landscape is covered by a great shadow belonging to a mysterious and strange shape. An inmense creature, similar looking to a horseshoe crab, has suddenly appeared over the city and the mountains, dwarfing them with its incredible size. The creature releases its tentacle-like tendrils, as they slide through the buildings and reach the tallest tower of the town. Everybody is in awe and panic, no one knows what are the intentions this being has on us. What and who is this being...?
Fully coloured and shaded commission for who wanted me to make a piece of his fakemon. This is Xinaosura, a bug/psychic pokemon of inmense size who came from the unknown worlds of the cosmos. Despite its intimidating looks, it's actually very friendly. It wants to communicate with other beings, but due to its alien nature, it has some unfortunate effects on Earth's inhabitants, since its tendrils have the side effect of brainwashing other people. Despite this, Xinaosura doesn't have any nefarious intentions.
As the commissioner talked to me about this fakemon's backrground, it also seemed a nice opportunity to do something different. I added a bit of film grain with Gimp in order to make it look like the screenshot of a movie that you would watch in cinemas (You can see the image without grain here: sta.sh/0a2mfraib3d ). There are lots of things that make this creature very interesting, one of them is that its ladybug-like shell is covered with craters instead of spots, remember this pokemon travels through space. Its tails also tend to change colours depending of its mood.
And lastly, go and check out the reference sheet by here: www.deviantart.com/terusthebir… . He and worked on creating this unique looking fakemon, credit should go to them also.
Oh, and while I was drawing and painting, I listened to these pieces to get me on the mood:

I modified it to look more like a real anime screenshot (aka low quality)
Tell me what you think!
(Also includes a clean waifu2x upscale)

Pretty good job on nailing that screencap effect. It looks like it could pass as something from a legit anime

The description I was given really seemed fitting for this type of pictures. I love those fake screenshots that some artists do make, especially the ones with a more vintage look in them.
And thanks too ^^

yes some vintage ones work really REALLY nice, I love when people tyr to replicate 90s or 80s anime shots it is a lot of fun to see what they will try and grab to mimic the style

I like how it is designed to camouflage itself as the moon or that it is suggesting that the moon is a bunch of spacecrafts 👍🏻

There's a high chance someone may confuse its shell with a space object if it's seen from above

Wow!!! I was looking for the city and it took me a while to see! What a great spaceship design!!!!!

This Fakemon's design is quite lovely indeed. The city may be hard to see since it's covered entirely by shadow.

At least this creature doesn't have any parasitic tendencies like Nihilego

The tendrils project a hologram of a kiosk/display thing with TVs, and if you watched the TVs then you'd get brainwashed.
From what I remember from the dream, it felt like a pressure on your head, and you get an obsession with Xinaosura. I know because in the dream I ended up watching one of the TVs.
Sounds pretty similar to Nihilego if you ask me, but there's a mix of SCP in there too (in the dream the word "cognitohazard" was used to describe the brainwash-o-vision).
Interesting because the ultra beasts are basically the equivalent of SCPs in-universe
I really need to update the main reference

In fact, the commissioner wanted the piece to feel like those scenes from ID4
