Description Just saying, a lot of these are probably things you've already seen before, with some changes made on a few of them. Hope you guys don't mind reruns on classics.

I wanna go to bed soon, so once again, I'm giving you guys a preview of what I've got so far. Hope it's good! Including author's notes on designs, gameplay elements and whatnot!

EDIT: Colors and Pokedex now included!

------------------------

Fulmit - This opportunistic scavenger's trademark bile is the key to its success. Since the bile ruins protective feathers and fur on contact, it's learned to hunt by projectile vomiting onto its prey, and letting it fall to the elements. 

Nauskua - They are known throughout Russo as a repulsive and disgusting Pokemon. They have more than enough power themselves to hunt, but prefer to bully and gross out other Pokemon into giving up their meals.

AN: First draft here!   Nothing much with Nauskua, except made it slightly bulkier. But Fulmit, I remember that it's usually baby fulmars which defend themselves with vomit. So incorporated that, making it look even uglier than it was already, and now it's basically nausea fuel. XD

-----------------------

Babayung - They fly around on a mortar and pestle, to hunt for young, unevolved Pokemon. They are such a danger that Russo's Pokemon trainers must not be younger than 18 years old, to avoid being targeted by them. 

AN: An old and wonderfully creepy design of mine. Babayung's first draft   Compared with her second   Didn't need to fix what wasn't broken! Y'know? And I mean, this particular Pokemon's gimmick is hunting young Pokemon that aren't fully evolved. Which means that it just absolutely DESTROYS Eviolite users. Hide your eggs, hide your baby Pokemon!

------------------------

Meleeon - An Eeveelution artificially bred by Russo's military, to serve in special forces. They specialize most in tactical martial arts that allow them to take down enemies much bigger and stronger than they are. 

Jeteon - An Eeveelution artificially bred by Russo's military, to serve in the air force. They are especially good at taking down other Flying-Type Pokemon head-on, and can communicate to their owners via air-writing.

AN: A pair of Eeveelutions I never got to draw before. Not much to say about them, except Meleeon is based off of Sambo fighters. Sambo is a form of Russian martial arts much like Judo that focuses on fast-paced self-defense. So that's the look I went for, albeit it might be colored in to be more tactical and camo-looking.

----------------------

Rotot - They have four rotors to fly with, but their movement is still unsteady and clumsy. Luckily for them, their thick metallic exoskeleton ensures that little harm ever comes to them. Including from falls, or bird Pokemon attacks. 

Choppod - Choppod pupate by forming a second exoskeleton shell, but their movements are not slowed. They are still able to fly well, and even hunt in "fleets" by dropping poisonous "bombs" on prey from above.

Hornicopter - Some say that these Pokemon were bred and technologically enhanced to be war machines. Once they are made compliant with steam, they can be ordered by military forces to survey and attack enemy regions.

AN: The very first draft of this Fakemon   Before deciding it was just a LITTLE too much like a digimon, or at least a creature far too mecha-looking to be a Pokemon. So I downgraded the graphics slightly to come up with this.   And then traced it because I like this design. XD

-------------------------

Sputrek - These space-borne Pokemon are perhaps the first to ever achieve true spaceflight. The successful creation and utilization of the first Sputrek probe had launched an aggressive Space Race between Russo and Unova. Occasionally, one lands on Earth.

Tetrisnake - The first Tetrisnakes have been created mere minutes after the very first Porygon came into existence. They have been programmed to multiply their code in the form of long stacks, which add to their power over time. 

AN: My first attempt at it!   So, few differences on Sputrek. But decided to go a different direction for Tetretic, when remaking it into Tetrisnake. I suddenly got the idea of stacking its tetris blocks length-wise, to make a very long creature! Add that with those old Snake arcade games where you try to maneuver a long boi who keeps getting longer, and there you have it! New Fakemon!

---------------------------

Bobavine - Their claws are poor for burrowing, so instead they dig into the snow by charging at it. They are aggressive, and can sometimes appear suicidal in the way they confront predatory Pokemon.

Huskrat - Renowned for their ability to traverse hostile arctic terrain, as well as the musky smell they emit, the hardships they've experienced prompts it to selflessly help other Pokemon living in hostile conditions.

AN: Originally here  Funny story, coming up with this was a bit of a runaround. At first it would be Lemmusk and Huskrat, since the idea was to slap Musk Ox features onto these Pokemon. But then I got the idea to have a Lemming Fakemon be the regional Electric Rodent, so I turned Lemmini into Bobavine. Basically a bobak marmot that travels in herds like cows. XD

----------------------------

Dogovoy - They are very helpful, and look after the safety and cleanliness of their homes without fail, even until their fur is matted with dust. However, it doesn't suffer disrespectful and immoral behavior, and will turn their back on a bad person.

AN: Based on the Domovoy. A little, gray-haired old man of Russian folklore that is essentially a household god that watches over a particular home. It's shapeshifting too, and dogs were one of the forms it took. So, while before it was just a plain old dwarf Pokemon  I decided to remake him into a little doggo that watches over people's homes!

-----------------------------

Cyurreal I - They are highly akin to Unown. However, they come in 33 different forms, each one based on Russan Cyrillic Script. While they usually don't make noise, they may occasionally whisper a single sound on repeat. 

Cyurreal II - These disquieting Pokemon whisper gibberish all the time. To a person listening, it gets louder. And their voices sound human. Some find Cyurreal II inherently maddening to behold, but can't look away regardless.

AN: As seen here Fakemon 2018 - Cyrreal I Line  Russo's answer to Unown. Except with a gimmick of having a viable moveset depending on which ones you put together. 

-----------------------------

Nimblas - Their bodies are coated in soft fur that absorbs impacts, allowing them to safely live on high cliffs and mountains without getting hurt. It also makes them look like miniature clouds when they sleep.

Cumuleo - These mystical Pokemon hide in trees and mountains, and fly upon an icy mist. They are incredibly hard to find in the wild, as they spend most of their time flying, or hunting airborne prey.  

Qingleo - It is said that its tail turns into a snow cloud once it reaches 500 years old, that allows it to maintain Russo's ecosystem in secret. Their roars can cast blizzards so powerful, they can even chill a desert, and topple tall buildings. 

AN: An important note: The final design is NOT mine. This was my first barely-developed draft, as seen here  . But this right over here? Fakemon 2018 - Nimblas Line  The design's credit goes to the oh-so jolly good fellow of mine, ! Full props to her for making such a badass design, and hope this can look great once again in color.

Which of these is your favorite? Do tell!

Aww shucks!

I do enjoy myself some good classics remade every now and then! 

I'm particularly proud of Dogovoy, and my ability to make the Fulmit line somehow even grosser than before. XD

Oooh, so that motherly snake? I actually made that one for Kasari's region, Woostil. Which I think is based on the Appalachian Mountains or something like that? 

For the 64 I mentioned, it's basically all the ones from here,     and the ones on this sheet.

There still are plenty of Russo-Mons left to revamp, including stuff that can be found on this folder  www.deviantart.com/tipsyra1d3n…
