Hey guys,
this my entry for my good friend 's contest found here:

[link]

The aim of the contest is to create a trio of legendary fakemon with the option of using the provided silhouettes for 's own upcoming creations as a reference for the design:

I used the silhouettes as a base and stuck mostly to the same shapes, though there are some slight changes to the outlines of my designs. Although they are silhouetted, I believe them to be legendary cats from their shapes so I decided to make them all Sabertooth cats to match their legendary status.

SABLAZE (Say-Blaze)
--------------------------
Derivation: Sabertooth & Blaze
Abilities: Drought
Classification: Fire Disaster Pokemon

This proud but arrogant Pokemon has long been speculated to be the cause of heat-related and fire disasters by Pokemon experts.

Reigning supreme on the land in ancient times, it was feared by the ancestors of the creatures we know of today and there is evidence that it brought fire to early man who then worshipped Sablaze as a god across many cultures.

It appears veiled in thick smoke with a smell of brimstone; its roar can cause volcanoes to rise and fireballs to rain from the sky.

Potential moves: Smokescreen, Poison Gas, Bite, Crunch, Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Fire Fang, Flare Blitz, Fusion Flare, Magma Storm, Tail Whip, Slash, Growl, Roar, Will-O-Wisp

DESIGN NOTES

Sablaze was my first creation which I based on the Iberian Lynx due to the size of the ears on the silhouette. I wanted a unique colour scheme to avoid comparisons with Flareon and both my fiancee as well as the awesome suggested I use blue and grey, so this design is what I came up with. I made Sablaze's collar and leg tufts grey to suggest a smoke element associated with fire and the blue colour to hint at the center of a candle flame.

SABALUGA (Say-bla-oo-gar)
---------------------------------
Derivation: Sabertooth & Baluga
Abilities: Drizzle
Classification: Water Disaster Pokemon

This hardy and resilient Pokemon ruled the seas in ancient times, when the ancestors of today's Pokemon passed fearfully through the oceans to avoid Sabaluga's wrath.

Thought to the be the cause of floods and tsunamis by Pokemon experts today, in ancient cultures offerings were often sent out to sea to appease Sabaluga and cement safe passage across the oceans.

Its roar can cause mighty todal waves capable of drowning continents or create massive whirlpools to turn oceans into raging vortexes.

Sabaluga's body is covered with air sacs that can be inflated at will; this not only makes it appear bigger when threatened, but propels it to the surface at great speed when all of them are inflated. They are covered in a thick blubber, so they are more resilient to damage than you would think. It propels jets of water through its gills for bursts of speed when swimming.

Potential moves: Surf, Hydro Pump, Water Spout, Bite, Crunch, Octazooka, Aqua Ring, Aqua Tail, Brine, Whirlpool, Tail Whip, Slam, Body Slam, Growl, Roar

DESIGN NOTES

The fish-like tail of the silhouette is reminiscent of Vaporeon, so I again chose colour to make a different impression with Sabaluga's design. I went for a predator-like white and black of a killer whale instead and used flotation devices as a means of conveyance for the Pokemon. The general appearance of the face was based on a Hairless Sphinx cat. Oh, and to all marine biology enthusiasts out there, I know Baluga isn't a scientifically accurate term here, but hey if you're after scientific accuracy, why are you looking at fakemon?

SABERNETTIC (say-ber-net-tic)
--------------------------------------
Derivation: Sabertooth & Magnetic, pun on cybernettic)
Abilities: Magnetic Charge
Classification: Electric Disaster Pokemon

Ruling the skies in ancient times when the ancestors of modern Pokemon feared the raging storm, Sabernettic is thought to be the Pokemon responsible for devastating lightning storms by experts today.

Dashing across thunderclouds as if it was on the ground, Sabernettic moves at blinding speeds and was worshipped by cultures in ancient times to prevent them from being taken by the storm's wrath.

Its roar can summon lightning storms and tempests so powerful they can electrify nations and make it impossible to step outside without succumbing to the storm's might.

Sabernettic unleashes electric blasts of different polarities from either side of its body; by crossing these streams, it can cause explosive results.

Potential moves: Thunder, Thunderbolt, Bite, Crunch, Tail Whip, Thunder Fang, Charge, Bolt Strike, Volt Tackle, Fusion Volt, Discharge, Growl, Roar, Thunderwave

Magnetic Charge
The Pokemon with this ability will use Magnet Rise at the start of a battle, levitating it into the air with magnetic power.

DESIGN NOTES

I decided to make Sabernettic different from other electric types by using a polarty-based design on the legs; this also allowed me to incorporate a more varied use of colour than is generally used with an electric type while still keeping the same atmosphere.
