BRAZILIAN STARTER POKÉMON & FUSION!? The Zonhe Region!

Here’s a sneak peek at the new starter Pokémon for my upcoming Brazil inspired Zonhe Region! With an animated trailer and follow up video introducing a handful of its colorful new Pokémon & Characters! It even introduces the new Dreamerge mechanic as well as a contest I’ll be holding over on Instagram. Vibrant, bright, upbeat and fun! This tropical new region is home to the conceptual games Pokémon Push & Pokémon Pull. Where you will either seek the things or people that PUSH you towards from your dreams or try to avoid those that PULL you further away from them. As your wildest dreams or worst nightmares can come true in the Zonhe Region.

@mykemon_regions your description of how the box-art legends exist in your Zonhe Chronicles made me think of "aberijie" (Latin America/Mexican based), but not dissimilar origins, the person who coined the term had dreams of colorful hybrid/chimera creatures and had created sculptures of these dream creatures

OMG, now this is what I call a Fakemon region! Though I never expected it to have a mechanical phenomenon where players and trainers could literally create their own Fakemon. You blew me away, Myke. (More like blasted me out of this world.) You’re definitely gonna keep me hanging on by the end of the year just to see what wild adventure you have in store for us.

Your creativity is truly impressive! I already love the Zonhe region 🤩

[@juansebastiangrisalesvilla7606]

great video, 2 things: 1. I love the 2 legendaries, when I saw them on your Instagram, their aspects gave me the idea that they had a slight inspiration in Catholicism (because of the angelic and demonic aspects of both), but when you mentioned the inspirations in mythology Brazil was even better, combining the mythology of the first settlers of Brazil with the religion that later arrived and is the most predominant not only in that country but in the rest of Latin America was very cool. By the way, when I saw ophidanga I thought of the myth of the horned snake of the (northern) Native Americans. 2. I think you once showed what Ash's team would be in the Leweka region, it would be great to see what teams you imagine Ash would have in your other regions, especially a little story about how he got them and what Ash's adventures were in said places.

[@falconknight4964]

Each region you make it’s insanely hard to choose the starter pokemon, these are no exception ! I love them all! I’m probably going to have to wait for their evolutions to pick😂😢The regional bug is so pretty and the concept of this region has my jaw dropping throughout the video. It’s an absolutely insane idea that I love to death(also gives me nostalgia vibes from an old movie Shark Boy&Lava Girl based on the story you’ve said so far). Thank you once again for spreading your awesome amount of creativity and imagination, I cannot wait to see this region flourish! And I might even enter the event even though my drawing skills aren’t great😂

Oi! Leoh here! Yes, finally, Zonhe region came. Sugestion for the Zonhe region map: Reef Town. Inspired by the city of Recife here on Brazil (And yes, Recife means Reef because it's a coastline city.) I think it would be cool having the more urbanized side, the center of Recife been a mix of culture and progression, past and future, old and modern, and of course if your bring Recife you need to put Recife Velho (or Old Recife/Old Reef, whatever) and Marco Zero with it. Why i'm so intusiastic about it? Well, i live here! I'm the city right now actually, hehe~

[@joaopedrodemacedofreitas1928]

I am very excited for your new region as well as can't wait to see the new Legends video when it comes out soon! Embeak is soooo adorable and it is definitely my starter choice! ❤ For which version I'd choose I'd go with Pokemon Push. Also, the little sweets armadillo line is on the team! And you're promising more good mons, which is my favorite kind of Pokemon, so I can't wait to see the rest!! And it's crazy that we both (you and myself) have both celestial and demonic/infernal inspired mascot legendaries (mine, more so honestly). I've been slacking on watching your videos so I think I'd need to go back to those so I'm tied over until the next Legends video comes out because either way, you are a talented creator and it's always nice to see what your next thing is and what research you've done!

[@elise-deusadasvisoes]

I loved the Grass type starter. 💚

[@tiffanychan9627]

I am supremely curious of how the Vidroleta line maintains or attains its ice typing despite living in a habitat you wouldn't typically see ice pokemon living in. Butterflies had been one of my favorite animals (I still like them, but not as obsessively when I was younger) and I was particularly fond of the Blue Morpho.

[@MikeyTheCartoon]

I gotta say, the idea for using Fakemon in this is meta and awesome. Also I see your Voodool and Natyke lines are getting another set of RFs, unless those are convergent lines but it was hard to not notice there similarities lol. Also also, of the starters I’d probably pick the Embeak line. Mostly because I would’ve picked the Giroot and Crabubb lines for the your past regions. Keep up the awesome work my man

[@sandradermark8463]

Maria's brother has a Boto-inspired Finizen evo? Mind blown

[@Bownimations01]

This sounds awesome! Actually if i may, the concept is like the pokemon version of Digimon Tamers but cooler! In Digimon Tamers, Takato drew Guilmon and tried to scan his makeshift digimon card only to get it stuck in the reader. The reader embodied some code and turned guilmon into a real digimon and the drawing into a real Tamer card. However I like the difference here in which the legendaries themselves are two fakemon and that this is the mechanic in the game that affects the story and such. Wicked! In Digimon, Guilmon became a real digimon and that was really it, hes a digimon now and the rest of the story is just about digimon adventures. This explores the why and the concepts behind it and more. Cant wait to see more

[@pumpkn1ght700]

[@shizathoth4534]

So, starter is definitely gonna be Scubara, since capybaras are tied with axolotls as my favorite animal. I think I’ll go with Pull since I prefer demonic designs, and the idea of Ophidanga flying around like Valstrax is sick. I wasn’t sure how you’d manage to follow up Transforge’s act with how creative and cool it was, yet Dreamagine is somehow even more so in my opinion. I love the idea of a Fakemon region that actually stars Fakemon. And being able to decide it’s stat distribution would especially be amazing for me, since I often wish I could redistribute the stats of certain Pokemon. On top of that, you really nicely implemented the mechanic in my opinion. I greatly prefer mechanics that can be used at any time and on any Pokemon, and having it retain some moves from the host Pokemon let’s you keep some level of variability between hosts. And of course the Dreamerge mechanic is an awesome specialty variant. And I love how the mechanic puts the mascot legendary right at the forefront of everything, even battle. Oh, but I am wondering. How will trading version exclusives go down? Would you just be permanently locked from having the opposite version’s legendary? Either way, this is a great first look, and I’m excited to see where it all goes. Especially the Imagia designs. I’m still amazed you managed to usurp Transforge as my favorite fanmade gimmick so soon. I suppose Dreamagine really evokes a childlike wonder that most gimmicks just don’t.

As a brazilian, I really like this region, and i was scared before you reveal this region, because we already that some countries has a stereotype for Brazil, and you do some of them, and A LOT, like: Carnival, Rio de Janeiro, football and Amazon

[@mykemon_regions]

Oh yeah, this region while feature all those things as you’ve seen including Brazilian folklore while primarily focusing on Brazilian pop culture and art to fit the regions dreamy themes of imagination and creativity. Hints all the colorful pop art/colorful stuff but as you said I think it’s a nice change of pace from the other more overdone stereotypical things typically associated with Brazil that are generally focused on in Fakemon projects. As I wanted to do something fun and different for my take.

[@powersurge_beast]

Sorry I'm definitely pushing Palmeira in a locker dawg LMAO SPECTACLED BEAR SPOTTED

[@mauroperez2848]

For something that is a sneak peek, the ideas behind your upcoming Zonhe Region are crazy, but in a good way. I love how the new legendaries follow the same examples as Koraidon/Miraidon and even Solgaleo/Lunala to an extent as travel buddies. The fact that you can even name them and customize their stats is superb as it can allow for creative flexibility on what you want the Imagia to be in battle. The idea of creating literal fakemon, or Imagia as you said, sounds so absurd that it goes back around to being cool. Both the Dreamagine and Dreamerge mechanics sound super cool with the latter leading to some crazy battle strategies based on the fusion materials. And I haven't gotten to the starters yet. All three look wonderfully designed. I would choose Pokemon Push as my version and Scubara as my starter. Can't wait to see what you have in store for the Zonhe Region.

[@wuss90]

I'd probably choose Pull as Ophidangá looks really cool and because negative emotions, while often seen as bad, can be qute good. Also, the concept of creating the legends at the beginning is super cool
