Description My entry for fav.me/db1ys6m ! Check it out~

.:What I dislike about Magnezone:.

Magnezone is bulky and visually jarring
The transition form Magneton to Magnezone is really bizarre and Magnezone looks really goofy especially because it's hard to tell that the red spot in the middle is an eye. (I picture it as a nose every time XD)

Magnezone does not have anything to do with Magnetic fields
Magnezone's design does not really lend itself to being based on magnetic fields. It's change in design does not follow any logic.

Magnezone's evolution method does not have any influence o its design
Usually special evolution methods contribute to the design in a special way. For example Probopass gets a moustache of iron filings as it is exposed to a strong magnetic field. Magnezone doesn't get anything from its evolution method.

It's based on a UFO...
Why.

.:How I blessed this unfortunate Pokemon:.
Β 
Changed the design motifs
I designed it based on an atom of Lithium (3 protons and electrons), a magnetic field, and electromagnetic forces.
Lithium is a paramagnetic element. This means that it becomes a magnet in a magnetic fields. This is very appropriate as magneton evolves while in a magnetic field. The three red eyed heads are the protons and the blue eyed ones are the electrons. Also the electon heads are free because that's what causes metals to be able to be magnetised.
The zappy curves represent the field lines of a bar magnet. It is not accurate the shape of the design, but it's the most recognisable field. Iron filings are all arranged according to the field direction.
One magnet of each of the side heads is a hand charged with electricity. This represents electromagnetic force (hand = force).

It goes well with Magneton's design
I made the transition from Magneton to Magnezone more smooth and intuitive. Magnezone now looks more like Magneton got exposed to a strong magnetic field

Oh...I was considering participate in the contest but...I CAN'T COMPETE WITH THIS.

Ok no, I'm just kidding, I might participate, but I don't know what to do yet, however this design is absolutely awesome! Maybe I'm fan of Magnezone's original design but this is WAY more fitting and the design motifs just make it better~ I think you totally deserve one of the prizes!...Or at least an honorable mention

I find funny that some people see Magnezone's red eye as a nose, maybe it's just me because I have seen a lot of Kirby stuff to see it as an eye xD. But I understand it given that that eye is...how to say it ? "Dead", it never moves, not even in the pokΓ©mon amie/pokerelax which I find pretty weird

Personally I prefer the original

The UFO design is more unique and interesting while this is just kind of throwing more magnemites together

Paradonyx In reply to Raythedeku [2017-03-16 21:27:21 +0000 UTC]

I see. That's quite alright. I have the opposite opinion - The UFO basis is pretty pointless. And the more magnemites together thing I just did to make it a lithium atom.

This is so cool! It reminds me a lot of my Celestial Magnezone design, which I've been meaning to redesign. XD

Thanks! Looking forward to seeing it.

Wait, Magnezone's red dot was an EYE?!?!
anyway, interesting concept, I feel it became smaller though, I don't know why.

Paradonyx In reply to Takuastudios [2017-03-15 04:46:42 +0000 UTC]

Yea. It may actually be smaller, since its based on an atom.

Makes sense.

I still see it like a nose, but I'm sad to say that it took me a long time to realize it was an eye, too. xD

Guess, I wasn't the only one, who used to see Magnezone's red eye as a nose =3
Sometimes I still do tho~

If I never saw this post, I never would have known that that red dot was a nose XD

Otherwise, he'd look more adorable with a nose x3
I remember, I used to draw a lot of art with Zone's red eye as a nose!
Sadly I don't have any creative brain anymore X0

Interesting spin! It seems more true to Magnemite and Magneton, I think I might like yours more!

This seems more like a mega evolution than a redesign of him

Eh I think its because its so different from the original. Thanks for the feedback anyway
