Drapitation's line and their concept is awesome, if that lil guy had an episode in the anime just explaining the water cycle on the side i think the world would be a better place
THIS CONTEST WAS SO FUN!!! Seeing my Mercery line make it in was an absolute JUMPSCARE but i'm so happy I made it!!! So glad you liked my funny Mercury beast, and congrats to everyone else who made it in!
A couple ideas I thought of watching this: I'm sure you already planned this, but it would be cool as the further in the game you progress, the more complex topics for the creatures get. Like how you can have one for the basic states of matter, then another far later introducing other states I also have a suggestion for a specific creature! One that starts as a fruit, then ferments to alcohol. The alcoholic creature can then ferment again into vinegar
That Arboliva varient should have a signiture ability that acts like a combo of Harvest and Forewarn. At the end of each turn there would be a 50% chance (100% in sun) to create a relevent super effective resist berry, or a copy of it's original berry if none apply.
Congrats to everyone participating in the event. Even if I wasn't showcased this time (which would've been a bit redundant as I was last time lmao), I had a blast doing my part Especially happy to see SaucePesto being on the video, as we (as a group of three friends) brainstormed all together for designs, names ect
I love amalgremie's concept (especially its gigantimax), mercury is a fascinating element. Now i want to see something related to gallium, maybe a signature ability or move that removes some of steel's resistances?
I’d love to see this becoming a monthly to bi-monthly competition, seeing so many people come together to think about and talk about science is amazing, let alone the super creative designs that end up being made
2:10 neutron stars form from collapsing stars with 1-3 solar masses (the mass of the sun), the newly formed neutrons in the collapsing star stop gravity from fully crushing the star, but if the mass is any higher, gravity wins. black holes form from anything with more mass. A neutron star can become a black hole if it gains enough mass and the balance is broken.
Imagine if that immortal jellyfish Pokémon, after reaching its final evolution, evolved back into its first form, and repeat from there. Perhaps, rather than each evolution being a strict improvement, each one has a different stat spread but the same BST, making them act more like form changes - but they still switch via cyclic evolution. To encourage you to go through the cycle, its move learnsets probably contain some unique (i.e. not learned by the other stages) moves at very high levels for all three stages, so if you want maximum options, you’ll want to have it spend some time in all three evolutions.
This was very inspiring to see, so many amazing ideas! I remember trying to make a fakemon around a waterbear where it would have a form to exist as every type, might try to work on that again
i love the amalgramie, learning about mercury amalgams is what got me to be interested in chemistry for a while so seeing it personified as a pokemon is so cool
My first thought when you talked about noble gases inspiring a new ability: Stability: this creature is always affected by attacks as if it had no weakness or resistance to them. It seems a bit unbalanced, but it still reminds me of the “not reacting with other elements” part of noble gases. Maybe making it have no resistance is too big of a nerf? I think it would be a bit too strong if it had no weaknesses and some resistances. Maybe it should reduce the effect of its weaknesses? I don’t know.
This was a fun challenge to take part in, not used to doing general character design based off an idea like this so it was fun to do and also good practice, lots of cool designs in the video! I like the mix of science and design in challenge and more generally this series 😎
Ok im watching this after the pokemon presents when we get the new applin evolution Dipplin and there is also a Dippilin in this video the water on based off pipes etc, Thats sick to even be able to accidentally guess a NEW evolutions name
This project of yours is super hype tbh. Wonder what you'll do in regards to Story plot. ---------- Seeing the success of this event, if you opt for Kickstarter to fund this - then a perk where (if within a certain criteria) people get to submit and have a chance to get their mon in the game would be neat.
I wish I could have participated, I had an Idea but i couldn't figure out how to flesh it out +I can't draw. My idea was a Water/Steel variant of Varoom/Revavroom demonstrating fluid dynamics with pumps and such. sucks that I couldnt really get to to finish
Amalgams are SO underrated for their strange behavior. Guess that’s because of mercury being poisonous, but still, if safety precautions are taken, you can see some cool stuff.
Woaaaaaaah SOOOOOO many incredible and inspired designs here!!! Chronova is some third-eye opening stuff WOW, really fun to have participated on this, hope it becomes an annual thing!
Ahhh I love the arboliva so much!! Plant Pokémon have always had a place in my heart and seeing grafting incorporated into one of my already favorites?? It’s so amazing ❤
@@Artesfol It's not what kind of app you use, it's how you use it! I just use the pen, eraser, and blur tools to draw my Fakemon. You can find those in most kinds of digital art software nowadays. My advice would be to study the shape of designs that Pokemon have, and how they're used. A lot of modern designs tend to have an art style similar to old cartoons, and are built to be simple to render and move around in a 3D environment.
It was so cool to see al these uniqe designs, honestly I'm shocked of myself, from not even thinking about making a star themed design while being such a space fanatic. It's still sa that I didn't have the time to start on a design myself. Woulu think of doing this again some time in the future? maybe not in one and a half years would be perfect hehe, where my next exam would happen. I must also say, It's really smart to inspire and intrest others more in science by making a pokemon/creature collector themed game about science. I always used to be interested but in the last few years I kinda fell outa the loop and started being more lazy and researching less and less, this kinda brought me back into learning a bit more. I must really say, thank you for having this amazing idea and sharing it step by step.
I love the mercery and amalgramie concept, ¿a milcery made out of mercury, with the steel-poison types (being basicly the opposite to milcery's fairy type), and an alcremie with all the amalgams of the metal? THAT'S WONDERFUL I want to also give some credit to the Lendyke line for creating a fire-water type.
Bro literalmente llegue a tu canal buscando fakemon y terminó aprendiendo temas de matemáticas biología física química y geometría, y sólo tengo 14 años!
Mantine concept is so cool, this water/fire typing is realy was mindblowing for me. Maybe because I'm a dummy and bad at science, but i think this was my favourite one along with Applin
Participating in this challenge eventually got me making pokemon for a fakemon region of my own, so even though I didn't make it into the video I'd still say it was worth it!
I have a whole unique fakemon line in mind thats a glowing radioactive worm that evolves into a pupa shaped like a pop culture depiction of a nuclear waste barrel. And then it emerges as this insect looking atomic dragon, possibly completely changing type from it's original form.
Oh boy I get to help with the science portion of this video! I'd like to talk about the Gengar line by shanhasacrayon. I have bachelors of science in physics and astronomy so I want to be thorough, but if you only care about the Pokemon stuff skip to the last paragraph. So basically, when stars run out of hydrogen to fuse into helium at their core, the massive energy output obviously decreases a lot and the massive pressure coming from the outside of the core in (gravity) takes over. This breaks what we call "Hydrostatic Equilibrium," which basically means the nuclear fusion taking place in the core is enough that the star doesn't collapse on itself from its own gravity. Anyway, after that happens, the star briefly contracts which allows a high enough temperature/pressure to begin fusing hydrogen in an outer shell. This causes the star to balloon up to massive size with a lower temperature, so smaller less luminous main sequence stars like our own and the ones that are less massive will become white dwarfs. Eventually that hydrogen will run out too and the star contracts again before releasing a huge amount of matter, creating the white dwarf (basically the remnant of the core, very small in comparison to what was there before) while expelling the outside layers creating the incorrectly named planetary nebula. This is the fate of the vast majority of stars, as most in the universe are not all that luminous or special. But the luminous ones are easier to observe so we know a lot about those too. Not gonna go completely into the different types of supernovae, but the important thing here to know is that mass affects everything. Stars that are far more massive than our own (about 8x) but not among the largest of all will experience a type II supernova. Basically what happens is these massive stars are so large that the process of the hydrogen producing zone moving to an outer shell continues, and the core begins to fuse helium into heavier elements. This begins something called the CNO cycles, where Carbon, Nitrogen, and Oxygen are continuously fused creating huge amounts of energy. Eventually that runs out too, and the core is left with just iron. Although there is still enough energy there due to the massive temperature and pressure, the fusion of iron is energy-negative, leading to another collapse. However with these massive stars, the collapse is so violent is becomes hyper-luminous. This is the supernova. Smaller stars in this spectrum will end up as ultra-dense Neutron stars, but larger ones WILL become black holes. We know these supernovae are type II because they still have large amounts of hydrogen and helium in their spectra because of the outer shells. Stars that are FAR more massive than that (about 25x the mass of our own) experience type Ib supernovae, which show far less hydrogen and helium due to the star losing its outer gases due to just how large it is. These stars will almost always result in black holes. There's also type Ic supernovae, which are basically the same but even more stripped down thus showing even less hydrogen in their spectra. But guess what? None of that is actually relevant to that black hole Gengar design! Yes, white dwarfs CAN form supernovae. This type of supernova, called Type Ia, is atypical compared to the others as it does not result from a massive star collapsing but probably occurs in binary systems with a white dwarf. Basically, white dwarfs are dense and in a system with multiple stars can accrete material from nearby stars and reach a larger mass. White dwarfs can only be so heavy before they reach something called the Chandrasekhar mass. The Chandrasekhar limit describes how heavy white dwarfs can be while still being stable (about 1.4x the mass of our sun). White dwarfs that end up heavier than that collapse (once again due to gravity) which ends up as a neutron star or black hole. So yeah that pretty much only happens in a system with more than one star where accretion takes place or the two stars become one. Stars that WOULD'VE produced white dwarfs that massive just skip that stage and do their own supernovae. So now on to the Pokemon itself. I think this concept is really neat! What I would do evolution wise is maybe have another Pokemon based on a star required in the party to evolve, kinda like Mantyke into Mantine with Remoraid. Maybe it could just be Solrock. That would make it more scientifically accurate, as a lone white dwarf isn't suddenly going to gain a bunch of mass and go supernova on its on, even if it DOES reach level 25. Other than that though I think it's a fantastic idea and really I'm just nitpicking because I love astronomy so much.
i wish i had heard of this challenge earlier, because i just had a great idea. a regi pokemon based on blueprints & architectural drawings. could be called regiprint or regitecht
That Arboliva alternate evolution looks like one of those dried bouquets you can get and have them live basically forever, one of my teachers has one of those in her lab
That was Very good i personaly have some science inspired pokémon in my region (but unfortunaly that project still on hold) and i have one pokémon with various forms that IS inspired by The structure of various materials líquids and etc for example i had This Idea when i Saw your starter vídeo and with water starter and i made a pokémon that straight looks like a water molecule its Y shaped só its a little bit more interesthing and its water normal and another form that i made was based on a coal molecule (and no It inst that complex) and its fire and Poison because of the carbônic gás its expeling yeah Just these Two examples for now and If catch The ones that you want you can combine them into a New evolution but anyway byr
Obviously I know I’m late to the party, and I still need to draw it, but I had a fun idea for a convergent Orthworm based on the bobbit worm and abyssal gigantism. Basically it’d be a Water/Dark relative of Orthworm found in the deepest and darkest parts of the ocean that has grown to a massive size (about as long as Rayquaza even, although at least 2/3 of it are buried at all times unless they’re actively attacking) due to water pressure, and have evolved to be able to lunge at sonic speeds and attack prey with sharp mandibles, like actual bobbit worms. (I know bobbit worms are a purely epipelagic species but a lot of media with them shows them as deep-sea creatures and that makes for a more interesting Pokémon anyways)
If statizone worked alongside magnizone the similar to tastigiri and dondozo then I can see them doing very well. With statizone buffffing magnezone's stats and acting as a damage buffer persevering magnezone's health. It would be really cool for older pokemon to get treatments like this in place of form changes/variants. Closing the gap in power, and adding interactions never seen before.
I really wanted to participate in this but the design I came up with needed a re design. And my classes started I was short on time. It's a really cool concept that non have come up with. So what should I do😮
Oh man, I really wish I participated! I have this really cool concept for a rock/ghost skeletal Lileep line based off limestone, as if the skeletal structure of the limestone, which is made up of fossilized animals, was revived into a Pokémon!
Ok I didn't actually know there was a contest, I don't watch like every video you put out, but I had this idea I wanted to share, what if there was a creature based on hydrolisis, where it would be a water/steel type (something with two electrodes inside) and when hit by an electric attack or something similar it would evolve/change form to a fire/flying type to show the separation of hydrogen and oxygen in water with electricity. If it was to be a convergent evolution it could be based of corsola/cursola with a water type evolving into something that looks like an escaping gas cloud
i really like how you use monster hunter like drawings of pokemon this 2 franchises are my 2 favorite games that i could get on switch o and i would create a pokemon based on multiverse that he changes abilitys based on your accions like when you use an item to heal it it gets an ability to heal itself or if it uses fire move it turns into fire type if you switch it out it turns into a new pokemon when you bring it back to battle
Hi Nortist, quick question, do you think Kyogre's Blue Orb or Pikachu's Light Ball (or any other exclusive items) are made out of an existing element or combination on the periodic table, or some new magical / fantasy material that needs a name?
I'd like a Ditto that instead of turning into other Pokemon it can change its type by changing its composition (obviously it should learn more than just one move)
im sad I only found out about the challenge after the submission due date. im still gonna try though! wanna try to make some music-focused science pokemon
I wish I had sent in a submission. I made a Poison/Bug type version of Ekans and Arbok a long time ago based on batesian mimicry, but technically, in reverse. Ekans looks like Caterpie to be able to attract Pokemon that might prey on Caterpie and ambush them. My Arbok then looks like Butterfree. It's hood looking like Butterfree's wings to be able to slither up to Butterfrees and catch them off guard.
It was super fun to participate in this challenge, and I'm glad you liked my convergent Applin line !
I loved your design, keep it up!
@@phoenixyoung47 Thanks !
YOUR LINE WAS SOOO EPIC
Apple juice dini saur
Yes I love it. Edit: now there's gonna be something in the scarlet and violet dlc. Ok
I don't know what's better -- Mercury Milcery, or a Smoliv final stage that's a bunch of different plants grafted together.
Drapitation's line and their concept is awesome, if that lil guy had an episode in the anime just explaining the water cycle on the side i think the world would be a better place
THIS CONTEST WAS SO FUN!!! Seeing my Mercery line make it in was an absolute JUMPSCARE but i'm so happy I made it!!! So glad you liked my funny Mercury beast, and congrats to everyone else who made it in!
Your design was cool!
One of my favorite featured designs. But without NileRed I wouldn’t be able to understand it
the best one on this video, in my opinion
It was such a good idea, good job making it in.
YOUR DESIGN IS THE COOLEST I LOVE SWITCHING THE CANDIES FOR DIFFERENT AMALGAM MATERIALS
A couple ideas I thought of watching this:
I'm sure you already planned this, but it would be cool as the further in the game you progress, the more complex topics for the creatures get. Like how you can have one for the basic states of matter, then another far later introducing other states

Link your submission to this contest, I'd love to see it
6:25 oh crap now we have an applin evo called dipplin
5:45
Ayo they predicted Dipplin. Well, in name anyway.
I love amalgremie's concept (especially its gigantimax), mercury is a fascinating element. Now i want to see something related to gallium, maybe a signature ability or move that removes some of steel's resistances?
Super fun challenge! I run the Radon region account and I’m glad you liked our design! Shoutout to all the awesome submissions
Everyone did a fantastic job here. My favorites has to be Novatone, the white dwarf Gastly line, Chronova, Diplin, and Amalgramie.
The convergent dreepy and milcery lines are so amazing I love them
aww you even did the extra mile to redraw everyone's awesome submissions into your own style. nice!
I’d love to see this becoming a monthly to bi-monthly competition, seeing so many people come together to think about and talk about science is amazing, let alone the super creative designs that end up being made

Hope this helps (:
It’s more like 8-30 solar masses acktchually.
Imagine if that immortal jellyfish Pokémon, after reaching its final evolution, evolved back into its first form, and repeat from there.

3:34 It's almost like if Mantine was introduced in Gen 4, while Remoraid was Gen 2- so it helps with the evolution from Tyke to Tine.
This was very inspiring to see, so many amazing ideas! I remember trying to make a fakemon around a waterbear where it would have a form to exist as every type, might try to work on that again
i love the amalgramie, learning about mercury amalgams is what got me to be interested in chemistry for a while so seeing it personified as a pokemon is so cool
THIS GUY NEVER CEASES TO SURPRISE ME WITH HIS IMAGINATION
My first thought when you talked about noble gases inspiring a new ability:
Stability: this creature is always affected by attacks as if it had no weakness or resistance to them.
It seems a bit unbalanced, but it still reminds me of the “not reacting with other elements” part of noble gases.
Maybe making it have no resistance is too big of a nerf? I think it would be a bit too strong if it had no weaknesses and some resistances. Maybe it should reduce the effect of its weaknesses? I don’t know.
I… completely forgot about this lol. Was gonna make a mantis shrimp fire type clauncher evo based on light spectrum stuff, uv and lasers and whatnot.
This was a fun challenge to take part in, not used to doing general character design based off an idea like this so it was fun to do and also good practice, lots of cool designs in the video! I like the mix of science and design in challenge and more generally this series 😎
Ok im watching this after the pokemon presents when we get the new applin evolution Dipplin and there is also a Dippilin in this video the water on based off pipes etc, Thats sick to even be able to accidentally guess a NEW evolutions name
All of those Fusions looks awesome
greatest title pun ive ever seen
This project of yours is super hype tbh.
Wonder what you'll do in regards to Story plot.

2:06 the graphic here is correct. A black Dwarf is what happens when a white Dwarf cools down
The Mercery line was such a fire idea omg
I wish I could have participated, I had an Idea but i couldn't figure out how to flesh it out +I can't draw. My idea was a Water/Steel variant of Varoom/Revavroom demonstrating fluid dynamics with pumps and such. sucks that I couldnt really get to to finish
Amalgams are SO underrated for their strange behavior. Guess that’s because of mercury being poisonous, but still, if safety precautions are taken, you can see some cool stuff.
Funny timing, I just watched the science videos yesterday, finishing up going through your back catalog after finding the channel recently!
Woaaaaaaah SOOOOOO many incredible and inspired designs here!!! Chronova is some third-eye opening stuff WOW, really fun to have participated on this, hope it becomes an annual thing!
although i didnt make it into the video, i had a fun time watching the submissions and making my own! thank you for the challenge, n0rtist!
Ahhh I love the arboliva so much!! Plant Pokémon have always had a place in my heart and seeing grafting incorporated into one of my already favorites?? It’s so amazing ❤
aaaah so excited for everyone who got their work discussed in the video!!! all the designs were so cute 🫶
Diplins line is just IMMACULATE.
When Diplin exists...
...but still an apple
This was a great challenge to participate in! I hope everyone had fun! :D
Hello, I'm trying to become a fakemon artist, but I'm having trouble coping the sugimori stile any advice? Like a specific app to use?
@@Artesfol It's not what kind of app you use, it's how you use it! I just use the pen, eraser, and blur tools to draw my Fakemon. You can find those in most kinds of digital art software nowadays.
My advice would be to study the shape of designs that Pokemon have, and how they're used. A lot of modern designs tend to have an art style similar to old cartoons, and are built to be simple to render and move around in a 3D environment.
Well I'm having trouble more specially in the blur on the shadows
@@Artesfol I don't mimic the official shading Pokemon uses, I just... kinda do my own thing. Sorry!
Well I guess I can do my own thing too lol
For the long lasting lightbulb monster thing, maybe it could swap between different types of lightbulbs or sources of light?
Damn, if only I knew about this challenge lol. I would have loved to share my Alcremie convergent Pokémon based on nuclear energy.
I did not know about the Tree of Many Fruits, and tbh it sounds like something that would be in mythology or a children's story and I LOVE IT SO MUCH!
Awww mercery just really needs a hug

1:38 this is kind of funny because the "evolution" requirement is so simple yet it's dex entry is that it was only seen once in the wild.
Magnazone is my favourite electric type
LETS GO SCRATCH REPRESENT
Not as fancy as 40 fruits, but I have a tree in my yard that the place o got it from called a fruit salad tree. It has peaches, plums, and nectarines
Wow thats super sick
Mercery and Amalgramie are absolute genius designs
Bit late to the party, but the White Dwarf Gastly line is based off a type 1a supernova - sure you’ve already got this comment before though
All the designs were super cool as well!
Incredible job to everyone! I do wonder, when will the next challenge happen?
Mine sadly didn't apper, but that's what I get for sending in the LITERAL LAST DAY LOL
I love this fusion of Pokemon and science so much
this is a really cool way to learn thanks for the videos. Very entertaining.
I'd support a sequel video covering more entries. I get why that might not be feasible, which is fine, but I'd enjoy it!
I wonder if there's going to be another one, because it looked really fun, and I'm wanting to create one of my own.
Bro literalmente llegue a tu canal buscando fakemon y terminó aprendiendo temas de matemáticas biología física química y geometría, y sólo tengo 14 años!
I had no idea this was going on I hope this has a chance of be comeing a yearly sorta thing

Obviously I know I’m late to the party, and I still need to draw it, but I had a fun idea for a convergent Orthworm based on the bobbit worm and abyssal gigantism. Basically it’d be a Water/Dark relative of Orthworm found in the deepest and darkest parts of the ocean that has grown to a massive size (about as long as Rayquaza even, although at least 2/3 of it are buried at all times unless they’re actively attacking) due to water pressure, and have evolved to be able to lunge at sonic speeds and attack prey with sharp mandibles, like actual bobbit worms. (I know bobbit worms are a purely epipelagic species but a lot of media with them shows them as deep-sea creatures and that makes for a more interesting Pokémon anyways)
If statizone worked alongside magnizone the similar to tastigiri and dondozo then I can see them doing very well. With statizone buffffing magnezone's stats and acting as a damage buffer persevering magnezone's health. It would be really cool for older pokemon to get treatments like this in place of form changes/variants. Closing the gap in power, and adding interactions never seen before.
makes me wish i could draw so i could make cool fakemon like these
cuz man
these designs were great
This Video Inspired me to add a science Pokemon to my Own Pokemon region based on South East Asia
I really wanted to participate in this but the design I came up with needed a re design. And my classes started I was short on time. It's a really cool concept that non have come up with. So what should I do😮
You've quickly become one of my fav Poketubers
A little late, but ill be real sad if the immortal jellyfish inspiration isnt used with malamar
Fun fact, Serene Grace basically has the same effects as the rainbow terrain/weather/pledge
I LOVE DIPLIN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
PIPLETUN IS AMAZING TOO AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
flowple is kinda mid tho
I would have loved to participate but I couldn't sho shad
8:04 I want these guy as actual pokemon
At 6:12 was it just me or did Sauce use apple juice for the shiny due to the original form being based off apples? It’s really funny 😂😂😂
So, talking about the states of matter… What about a supercritical fluid?
Woah, chronova is SO COOL!!
While I’m a bit sad my design wasn’t featured, but still happy to see these other designs.
Something to think about - plasma is more like the parallel of Liquids, in Energy/Plasma/Matter trio.
Oh man, I really wish I participated! I have this really cool concept for a rock/ghost skeletal Lileep line based off limestone, as if the skeletal structure of the limestone, which is made up of fossilized animals, was revived into a Pokémon!
Ok I didn't actually know there was a contest, I don't watch like every video you put out, but I had this idea I wanted to share, what if there was a creature based on hydrolisis, where it would be a water/steel type (something with two electrodes inside) and when hit by an electric attack or something similar it would evolve/change form to a fire/flying type to show the separation of hydrogen and oxygen in water with electricity. If it was to be a convergent evolution it could be based of corsola/cursola with a water type evolving into something that looks like an escaping gas cloud
oooh yeah supe cld super conductors is such a dope thing if we invest in that we can have hovering trains
i really like how you use monster hunter like drawings of pokemon this 2 franchises are my 2 favorite games that i could get on switch o and i would create a pokemon based on multiverse that he changes abilitys based on your accions like when you use an item to heal it it gets an ability to heal itself or if it uses fire move it turns into fire type if you switch it out it turns into a new pokemon when you bring it back to battle
A nuetron star with magnetic attacks would be cool
Hi Nortist, quick question, do you think Kyogre's Blue Orb or Pikachu's Light Ball (or any other exclusive items) are made out of an existing element or combination on the periodic table, or some new magical / fantasy material that needs a name?
I'd like a Ditto that instead of turning into other Pokemon it can change its type by changing its composition (obviously it should learn more than just one move)
im sad I only found out about the challenge after the submission due date. im still gonna try though! wanna try to make some music-focused science pokemon
4:40 They may not have to be supercooled to float for long!
I wish I had sent in a submission. I made a Poison/Bug type version of Ekans and Arbok a long time ago based on batesian mimicry, but technically, in reverse. Ekans looks like Caterpie to be able to attract Pokemon that might prey on Caterpie and ambush them. My Arbok then looks like Butterfree. It's hood looking like Butterfree's wings to be able to slither up to Butterfrees and catch them off guard.
There are some pokemon that are made to work together like dondozo and tatsugiri, so its not unheard of.
