Description
My first Pokemon submission since...December?! Jeez. Anyway, this is a contest entry for Pokedorks, hopefully it'll do okayish.
It's designed as an Evo to Weezing, a much underloved PokΓ©mon
Corpzing
Laughing pokemon
Poison/Dark
The Pokemon itself is designed around Nitrous Oxide, more commonly known as Laughing Gas. The shape of the Pokemon is designed around the molecular model of Laughing Gas N2O. You'll notice that the expression of two of the heads are identical but the third (the one on the left) has a more demonic expression. The molecular model is also identical to Carbon Monoxide. Laughing Gas, if inhaled in large quantities can cause asphyxiation, hence the blue complection, differing from the previous puples used in it's pre evo's.
Being an Urban Pokemon each 'head' is given a chimney, though the middle one is given one more resembling an exhaust on a dragster. The Name Corpzing comes from the term 'Corpsing' which means to laugh during an inappropriete moment in a live performance or broadcast. The phrase is thought to have been coined during a performance where a person playing a dead person would have trouble abstaining from laughing. In addition I wanted to get across that the poisons within the pokemon are now so leathal it has essentially killed the body and is possessed by the gases within, having formed a conciousness of thier own, the exterior therefore being a corpe. Similar to the relationship seen with the Parasite on Parasect.

Could probably work on some fine detailing, but otherwise a rather interesting & well thought-out design

Thanks, the Weezing line is always played on as ugly, I wanted to bring forward the sinisterness I felt about it with a kid
