Description Hardest pokemon to redesign realistically, period. A batch of pink eggs with faces that turn into a palm tree with coconut heads and dinosaur legs? What were those crazy japanese guys smoking?

After much thinking, I finally decided this.

The "cutes" are larval exeggutor that are hatched from little eggs. They then climb up onto their momma and use their small feet to hang from the palm fronds (actually more like feathers) while growing. Once large enough, they form a hard, egg-like cocoon and fall from their mother.

These "eggs" eventually hatch into adult exeggutors. Cutes whose mothers have died or abandoned them will often join together with other cutes. For some reason, they will not cocoon unless attached to their parent.

I love this design and concept. Of course, Exeggutor is a tree, people are going to make it a tree. But I absolutely love when artists think outside the box, to a certain degree. I know I'm going to be overusing the word love, but I love that you made it a bird-like creature (flightless bird?). Although I have my own personal idealistic differences on the whole concept, yours is absolutely amazing. When I first saw Alolan Exeggutor, one of my first thoughts was how you'd tackle it, looking back at this design. I'd be very interested to hear your idea, or even see it on paper.

This was one of my favorite pokemon to redesign and I still like the idea overall, although the drawing could be a lot better. I went ahead and sketched the Alolan version for youΒ rtradke.deviantart.com/art/Alo…

Mara-Jedusor [2014-12-14 04:26:27 +0000 UTC]

But how does a trainer get an adult Exeggutor from a larva? Do they pretend to be their parent and carry them on their back, feeding and nurturing them until the cute makes its cocoon?

RtRadke In reply to Mara-Jedusor [2014-12-14 06:39:49 +0000 UTC]

I tried to put a little thought into my designs, but gameplay considerations didn't really concern me.

Mara-Jedusor In reply to RtRadke [2014-12-14 17:01:18 +0000 UTC]

It's fine, I just thought about that because it sounded quite right with your explanation, but maybe the cutes really can't evolve without the real tree-like parent... :3

Wow. I would have never thought of that. The end result is fantastic!
What you need to remember is that even if they don't look like animals that we all identify with, it doesn't mean that it still cant be realistic. One time I looked at all the extinct animals on wikipedia and though I could never imagine most of those creatures in my wildest dreams, I could still imagine them existing at one point. That is the feeling I get from this.
I think it would make the harder redesigns a little easier for you :]
