I never agreed with Pokémon on how this particular fellow evolved.
Dratini, adorable as fuck.
Dragonair, sexy as hell.
Dragonite... WTF. Why would you -

So this is what I think Dragonite should've looked like instead. Or something like this at least. You know, resemble Dratini & Dragonair, but just be bigger and prettier! Like Lapras could almost be Dragonite if you ask me.
ANYWAY. TOTALLY RANDOM STUFF.

I'm not even a Pokéfag anymore, I jumped ship after Pokémon Yellow, pretty much.
But this has always bugged me and I needed to get it out of my systeeeeem x'D

"Like Lapras could almost be Dragonite."

OMG, you're right . . . can I use that for my PokePairs series?

such an unbelievably elegant and beautiful design ♥
i too have always been disappointed with Dragonite.
i feel it more resembles Charizard's unwanted cousin than a Dragonair evolution.

Thank you!   
Haha, Charizard's unwanted cousin sounds perfect XD I never really thought what Dragonite was, other than not what I wanted! xP

Eh, I'm more of a fan of the original design. This design is awesome, but it's more of a... "Mega Evolution" of Dragonair itself, to me.

The original design may be a radical shift in color and shape, but that IS how some reptiles grow. Also, I view the big belly it has as a durable "air sack" to supplement flight without giving up its new levels physical power.

May fave this later.

This is my new head-cannon. I don't care anymore, I'm forever seeing Dragonite as this, how it was supposed to look. Maybe if Dragonite looked like this, I'd like it, but the original dragonite design is freaking stupid >.>

XDD that's a good point, though it never really bothered me. It's not like we really know what dragons look like/do, so maybe it changes forms drastically after its first stages, like how caterpie goes into butterfree?
the only reason that makes sense to us is because it follows real life. but if we hadn't known that, then the concept would seem bizarre to us. So maybe it's the same with dragonite, you know?

Memokkeen In reply to Melmee [2013-04-03 17:45:16 +0000 UTC]

I'm mostly basing my objections/idea on other Pokémon, like say Bulbasaur-Ivysaur-Venusaur, Squirtle-Warturtle-Blastoise, Charmander-Charmeleon-Charizard etc. <--- All of these had relatively similar forms, and I was hoping/dreaming that Dratini-Dragonair-Dragonite would've been something like that, too. XD

Buuuuut to my great disappointment, it was not!
They're fantasy creatures sure, and they can do whatever they want with them, of course... I was just always hoping it would've been something like this instead haha. So I art-pooped my feels. xP

true XD I'd forgotten about that.
and I think your vs of the dragonite evolution is a very elegant and pretty one ORZ forgot to add that in my previous comment
XDD that's ok,you should artpoop your feels more often, it makes for interesting dicussion hehe
sasdjfkl; on a totally unrelated topic, just heard, there's apparently going to be a new mewtwo form for a following movie or something OAO

Thank you XD
I tried making it elegant -w-
And yaaaay I love discussions; I don't mind getting comments like "cool!" but there's not much to say back to those. xD'

Lol really? ... not sure how to feel about that. Is it like... MewTHREE? Or just Mewtwo 2.0? XD
I srsly dropped Pokémon around LeafGreen, I don't know sh*t oAo

hehe same ^.^ though I do get a bit backlogged with messages from convos with friends ;o;

asdfjkl; I don't even know, apparently it's a new forme to Mewtwo, though to be totally honest I'd rather they make a mewthree and leave mewtwo alone
but just my opinion. I know heaps of people who think it's awesome haha
I keep up to date, though I don't watch the anime. It sucks now |D

I'm... kinda anti-social outside of instant messaging. xD
I don't mind talking, I like it in fact; but I never start convos myself. x)"

I skipped 2nd grade graduation to see an episode. I WAS a hardcore fan. XD
Nowadays I have no idea about anything what's going on with the franchise. I quit after the first movie haha

Oh my gosh, I was thinking about the exactly same thing just today, when I was playing my Soul Silver and decided to take Dratini to my team for the first time... I love Pokemopn to death, and Dragonair is my number one dragon type ever, and... well, Dragonite is one of the best in OU (Over Used) in Pokemon battles, but I'm not really fan of the design.

This, however, is amazing fan made design. It keeps the elegant and beautiful colours and looks of Dragonair and takes them to next level. It's still very elegant, but has that lovely matured look, which is just something to be expected from the last evolution step. Love it.
