Fanmade Pokémon Designs (Fakemon) - Tracers, garbage designers, and of course, furries

Looked up "Monster Crown." Whilist its focus on breeding is an interesting concept in that offspring created from two species are always different and/or hybrids (Something that hasn't been done in actual Pokemon yet), it seems many of its designs suffer from being too simplistic or cluttered, and their names are pretty generic (seriously, it's like they just made up words as they went).

The only one that diverges from the "turn based" combat that I could find is Kindred Fates, but even then, they have their own Ralts and Gardevoir ripoff, and the Raccoon literally has Joker's mask.
I'm gonna be real, the Raccoon boy is kinda cute. But you are right about the cluttered designs.
 
Machamp and Hitmonchan aren't over-detailed or blatantly pandering to a specific fetish like those are, though. Those Fakemon designs took the Buneary-Lopunny approach but applied lots of Digimon-esque details.
I know, was just kidding.

The final evo's "hair" and similarity to the mid-stage sort of bothers me, but I like the steampunk feel here. Don't get why it isn't steel-type, though.
 
Anyone here heard of zerudez?
If not, zerudez is an artist who has an entire dex on Poke Engine, an incredibly buggy Pokemon MMO where people can create Pokemon regions for people to explore. Somehow, music doesn't play in the Retro Kanto region, you can't transfer Pokemon between regions, and status moves don't work at all, instead dealing 1 damage to you or the enemy.
The Atlas region holds an impressive 346 Pokemon (and for some reason 15 starter lines to choose from), Mega Evolutions, and even overworld sprites (albeit not finished, as clearly some are missing.)
Here is what he has to offer:

Quite a warm welcome here, as you can see here. After all, he sure does have quite the experience under his belt, creating Fakemon for over 10 years.

First off, we have the bug type, which I assume is the "regional bug" or something. Conceptually, a Bug/Fighting type would be pretty badass. Sure, some already exist, but not to the degree of being the common bug of the region. However, in execution, it's pretty bland, and the final stage doesn't change enough from the first, which is suprising, as bug types tend to drastically change from one stage to another. It would have been more interesting if "Dartibi" was a grub of sorts that looked wimpy and weak, and gained the fighting type upon evolving into Revolpod.

A thing you'll notice about zerudez is that he often rips off existing Pokemon as well, Luvenny and Suavenny being conceptually Minccino and Cinccino, except that they're rabbits and not chinchillas. Another is that same "cutesy" face; A good chunk of Fakemon he creates has this exact face, or at least the eyes.

And finally, here is Not Weezing, Not Haunter. Both sort of Just Get Bigger, with the only differences being very minor, like adding scythes or some shit.

These look like Mega Man enemies to me. Apparently, they're supposed to be beetles, but I honestly don't see it.
