Summary
One creative fan ofPokemon Scarlet and Violethas created Paradox form concept art for Squirtle and the rest of the Water-type’s evolutionary line. The designs are likely refreshing for the rest of thePokemon Scarlet and Violetcommunity, especially since it provides them with three different looks for the pocket creatures all at once.
Since the reveal of theupcomingPokemon Scarlet and VioletDLC, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, many fans have been anticipating the official release date of the new expansion. However, The Pokemon Company has to yet to share any concrete details on when players should expect the DLC to be launched. In the meantime, the game’s team has been keeping the player base busy with regular Tera Raid events, and the community is also preoccupied with generating their own content aboutPokemon Scarlet and Violetas well.

On Reddit, user Nickname-S shared their concept art featuring Squirtle and its evolutionary line, illustrating what the pocket creatures would look like if they hadPokemon Scarlet and VioletParadox forms. At one glance, fans will easily see that the artist had deviated from Squirtle, Wartortle, and Blastoise’s blue color scheme, instead opting for earthy brown shades for their bodies. What’s more, the wave-like tails of Squirtle and Wartortle were replaced by club-like ones, and also added to the artist’s Paradox form for Blastoise. They also gave titles for each pocket creature, naming them Smashing Shell, Hardened Tutel, and Battering Beast accordingly.
This is not the first time aPokemon Scarlet and Violetfan madeParadox form fan art for a Kanto starter, but Nickname-S has gone all-out with their pieces, even giving them different elements from their original Water type. Each of these Paradox form Pokemon are Ground/Steel-types, and this can clearly be seen in the way they were drawn. The community seems quite pleased with the artist’s work, especially since they can tell what influenced the artist. One pointed out that the Paradox form for Blastoise has a shell reminiscent of Gleerok’s inThe Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, Gen 7’sTurtonator, and evenSuper Mario’s Bowser.
Nickname-S actually has a series of YouTube videos that show off theirPokemon Scarlet and VioletParadox form fan art. They have made a lot of design concepts so far, and do not seem like they are going to stop any time soon. Interested fans should check out their content if they want to see more of their work.
