Aposeon

After looking at my earlier poison type eeveelution I thought it'd be fun to make another. My previous design has a kind of arteficial chemical-y look to it, so this time I looked into venomous creatures and natural toxins. I also made a point of not using the colour purple anywhere, no matter how tempting it was (Doesn't have to be purple to be poisonous, I kept telling myself). So anyway, the inspiration for this one is poison dart frogs,  in particular the reticulated poison frog. The name comes from 'Aposematism', the fancy word for warning colouration and markings.


The Aposematic Pokemon



Ability: Poison Touch (Hidden Ability - Wonder Skin)

"A Pokemon with a calm disposition. It is capable of secreting a powerful venom from all over its body, drenching its skin and short fur in it for protection."


(EDIT - Ok so I just discovered that this sort of idea has already been done by another artist, which you can check out here:

Even the names are the same! Well there I was hoping I'd done something original. Ah well, at least they look pretty different.)
