[@8bitwiseman]

I like the idea of a regional variant of a fakemon from a previous region an artist made, it helps solidify not only the current bit also previous regions to the world. But yeah, on retrospect, I disagree with how the Mystic type was implemented. While it CAN have an style that differs from other similar types like Psychic and Fairy or even Dragon, and while some of this fakemon do acomplish that, others just don’t convey that well (Combustallion is straight up a Dragon/Horse). Plus the interactions it has are weird (…how does having a mystic background give you specifically an Ice resistance). And of course, if you don’t like having repeat typings on your team, the Starters invalidate the need for any other Mystic Pokemon.

[@CoralDragoness]

I think Combustallion is supposed to be based off of a Qilin, hence the mystic. But yeah, fairy would’ve worked fine instead for that one. (Qilin supposedly only appear in times of peace, drink pure water, and eat whole grain. That’s why I say fairy type. Would also make it a unique typing!)

[@criticalnarwhal]

Design element that didn’t get touched on is the use of jade in the legendaries beyond the Nephroyle line in the form of bracelets, anklets, and headpieces, and the bracelets of the protagonists. With the peril forms not having the jade pieces, I’m guessing it’s also tied into the plot of the game. Cinnabar is also an important element of Chinese internal alchemical practice.

For both Infernape and Mon-King both being based on Sun Wukong, maybe Mon-King is an ancestor Pokemon to Infernape, Monferno, and Chimchar? But who knows! I mean, the concept of ancestry already exists in Legends Arceus for the human characters, but for Pokemon? Wow!

[@darkye_]

Here’s something the creator should improve when adding new types, They shouldn’t have the new type for starters. It feels weird for a starter to have a new typing, it just doesn’t feel right. Another thing is this new typing makes ice worse and it’s unneeded at this point. Also if your making a new type it should be weak to weaker types like rock for instance, rock needs love. Also they should make sure there isn’t a typing that already can fill the meaning of that type. What I mean is a typing like fairy or psychic kinda fills the role of a mystic type in a way

[@Skywolve1998]

I do think adding a new type to a starter is kind of acceptable. It's a way to make sure players who really wanna use that type can dedicate to it from the get go (if they check later evolutions) and just doesn't really have any drawbacks in my mind. Edit: I do find the usage of the new type as something on all 3 types to be weird though.

[@Jw87563]

Same thing could be said of the light type in the Philippines video. Fairy-type is the light type.

[@EmberFlames_Jag]

@@Jw87563 no, not at all, that's like comparing the dark type to the ghost type. Also, not all fairies are good and "light" anyways. Fairy is more fantasy-like whereas light could be more holy, heavenly, angel like or ever just "light" like without being electricity based.

When you add a new type, the goal should be to add it to all the other types, mixing the tropes of the original type with mystic. I agree that giving all the starters one type makes it redundant to use one of the other new mystic types. There doesn’t need to be more unused type combos, so making a mystic type hybrid with the other 18 is necessary, but then also invalidated by the starters. Also I agree that the psychic type already does the sort of sage/god thing that the mystic type tries to do.

[@aly7515]

Listen Chinese pronunciations are Hard(tm) and you tried very hard and did your very best! I knew what you were going for so the effort is all that matters. - Agrahorn, Bustallion, and Naguara may be a reference to how elements are related to each other in the classic Chinese 5 Elements: each one can be destructive to each other but never truly being superior, yet together synthesizing into new creation and coexisting in harmony - Bustallion's lore and colours may be a nod to Red Hare, the loyal and beloved mount of legendary warrior Lu Bu, who himself is worshipped as a minor war deity and in the stories was known to be belligerent and hotheaded - Azulong may be a reference to Qing Long, one of the 4 Beast Lords; its name literally translates to "azure dragon" - the sash on Naguara, Selenare, and Lucignal is commonly used to denote divinity, and often worn by celestial beings, particularly maidens (including Chang-E!). They are usually translated as "celestial" or "feathered" robes (hence the feathery/coatl-y look of Naguara) and in some stories like the Maiden and the Cowherd can be stolen and hidden away to prevent their return to the heavenly realms, similar to a selkie's sealskin. Your critique on seeing them as a design pattern on too many different species in a single region makes logistical sense, but the sashes are pretty common a motif on Chinese art so it.... kinda tracks? - in Chinese traditional medicines, one of the many ways to maintain health in the body is to eat things that are shaped like (or are) the body part(s) you wish to maintain; i.e., there's an ear-shaped fungus said to help with hearing, an algae aptly named "hair grass" supposedly helps hair grow strong and beautiful, and duck and chicken hearts and kidneys are said to help your heart and kidneys stay healthy. Ginseng, because it is often depicted in the form of a person, is believed to therefore help bolster and invigorate the whole body, hence why it is used in energy drinks - the artist is correct in the colour choices: yin is black (literally translating to "shade" or "dim") and represents feminine energy (among other things), yang is white (literally translating to "bright") and represents masculine energy - Xiangci's shrine dancer inspirations, particularly the multiple arms and the fact that one of the hands are over a big heart shape on its chest, may be a nod to the goddess of mercy Guanyin, who was said to be gifted a thousand eyes and a thousand hands after her deification to be able to eternally find all who suffer and them grant compassion and aid - Caulding in particular may be a reference to some dings that have taotie, a ravenous fiendish monster, as their motifs. Since the taotie is a mythical beast in Chinese folklore, that could also explain its Mystic typing - Ruffous' reds and golds may be a nod to how bats are present on more traditional red pockets, which are red and often have gold lettering and trim to them. The little golden bits coming off the sides of its head look like how bat wings would be drawn on those red pockets, and the shape of its eyes may be meant to invoke the image of gold coins, nodding to the fact that red pockets contained money - Pangurian Shelmet and Accelgor are based on Zhuge Liang in case anyone is wondering who the strategist was! Zhuge Liang is typically depicted with his hair pulled into a curly decorative box hairpin (the design of which is seen creating the design of Accelgor's head and somewhat reminiscent on the top half of Shelmet's shell), his moustache kept thing and long (as seen on Accelgor), and carried a feather fan (making up Accelgor's neck ruff) - squibs are small explosives, used in anything from pyrotechnic special effects to military use - Dribblet may be a reference to swiftlets, of which several species use their hardened spit to build nests (and then are harvested by humans as a delicacy) - Hanuman, Sun Wukong, and Son Goku are different regional names for the same Monkey King - Reliquine may be a reference to Bai Long Ma, 3rd son of the Dragon King of the West Sea, who takes the form of Tang Sanzang's mount throughout the Journey to the West - Bullgrim may be a reference to Sha Wujing (Sandy), one of the 3 disciples to Tang Sanzang in Journey to the West; he is typically depicted with a necklace of large prayer beads and is described at times as a "water buffalo" for being a bit slow on the uptake. The "grim" in the name may be the idea that between him, Wukong, and Pigsy, Sha Wujing is usually the "straight man" of the comedy and thus is more "grim" than the other two pranksters/troublemakers - I do like the reference to the rake (Pigsy's weapon of choice) as the tusks on Swinobite - Peril forms may be a reference to the fact that the four accompanying Tang Sanzang on his journey are in fact doing it as a form of forced penance, and are thus not completely "good" characters and have a bad habit of giving in to their vices (some more than others, I'm looking at you, Pigsy and Wukong)

@@robertperez2262 I was thinking the other evil team could be more evil oil tycoons, and the oil Pokemon I had suggested earlier would be their signature Pokémon. They would destroy habitats, or encroach on ancient peoples monuments and sites to extract resources from the environment.

[@robertperez2262]

@@fishtaco2996 that would be pretty cool as well! What could the pseudo legendary be? Hmmm… based on the wendigo? Ghost/Dark? Maybe based on the indigo snake? Steel/Dragon and it’s immune to poison because that’s a trait of the indigo snake (I think) ooooo maybe also a three stage SPLIT EVOLUTION pseudo legendary based on a hen (dragon/fairy) and a cockatrice (dragon/fire or idk…

Peachum is the new Version of grooky but with an additional normal type with a little bit of flavor cuz is a peach

I like this whole region I don't like that their was 3 mystic grass types

This is months old but it doesn't look like anyone's mentioned it so I wanted to say, yin is black and yang is white! Westerners somewhere along the line decided that white Feels more feminine than black or something, but in actuality it's not the case.

The villainous team can be the Team CCP (Claim Control on Pokemon Team) There can be lots of spies and espionage. The MC is in a society where if you don't obey the government your rights to have pokemon are taken away and put in camps. Your main goal is to overthrow the government, and allow everyone the right to have Pokemon again. Side missions can be environmental restoration and reduction of pollution. Getting people's pokemon back from the camps.

this region would be perfect for a single type nuzlocke, only using mystic pokemon.

I’d love a China based region, but with Japan and China relations, that’s not likely to happen…😅

[@thedragonwarrior5861]

I'd say it's possible since they made a dolphin mon despite their reactions to it

[@Gamer7z7]

Mystic type definitely feels over done. Maybe six or seven mystic types tops would be okay. I also agree that it doesn’t feel like it is a unique enough type when we already have psychic and fairy.

[@miaaemy]

with the 4 legendaries of Paldea being Chinese inspired i have to guess that a region based on China is up next

[@yenaremedina8676]

aerora borealis? at this time of day? at this time of year? in this part of the country? localize entierly within your kitchen?

The new legendarys hint that the next region might actually be in China! Very cool

There should be the 5 Marsters of Kungfu fighting type Pokemon. The animal style kung fu (Tiger, monkey, crane, mantis and viper)

I love the idea of having to evolve a Chimecho to a certain level while you have 3 other Chimecho in your party, and they combine into this "Harmonell" I don't know of any Pokémon that incorporate this idea...

i have a remake for Muffluff. We can call it Mufflufeon as a bug type evolution of Eevee

[@Jw87563]

Wasn't psychic already the stand-in magic/mystic type before gen 6 (and fairy type afterwards?) Mystic feels unnecessary.

In China, the monkey hero is called Sun Wukong. Son Goku is his Japanese name. Although Son Goku might bring up thoughts of 'Dragonball Z' to the uneducated anime fans.
