A Pokemon fan artist has reimagined Gen 3’s Seedot, Nuzleaf, and Shiftry as humans, giving these creatures cute anime-like forms. Turning Pokemon into humans is a common theme for Pokemon fan art.

Seedot is a Grass-type Pokemon that first appeared in Pokemon Ruby, and later in Pokemon Emerald. Seedot looks like a big pine cone with eyes and feet, and it evolves into the Grass/Dark-type Nuzleaf at Level 14. Finally, Nuzleaf becomes Shiftry if it’s exposed to the Leaf Stone, completing its evolution cycle.

A talented Pokemon fan combines the shapeshifting Ditto with the Water/Ground-type Quagsire, creating a new creature that looks uncanny.

Now, the artist Endifi has shared human versions of Seedot, Nuzleaf, and Shiftry. Overall, the designs maintain the most important features of the original creatures while still having a spin that makes them unique. In this new version, Seedot becomes a kid with very long brown hair, a robe, and a metal helmet that resembles the original Pokemon’s pine cone head. Nuzleaf, on the other hand, is redesigned as an adult human, becoming a noble with a long dress, white hair, a mask that has the same shape as Nuzleaf’s face, and a single leaf on the back of her head. The final design is Shiftry’s human form, which looks like a warrior wearing wooden sandals and a robe with long white hair and a huge battle staff.

Together with the artwork, the artist shared an amusing personal story about their relationship with these Grass-type creatures. According to Endifi, they were playing Pokemon Sapphire several years ago, and tried very hard to capture a Seedot, but could never find it, despite several of their friends having one. That happened because Seedot and its evolutions were exclusive to Pokemon Ruby. Fortunately, the creature was later available in other games, and Endifi eventually managed to get one. Right now, it’s possible to capture a Seedot in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's DLC The Teal's Mask, but not in the base games.

Endifi is a very prolific artist and has created countless pieces of Pokemon fan art. At the moment, they’re currently drawing several Pokemon from Gen 3 as humans. Their previous creation was human forms for Lotad and its evolutions. The artwork followed a similar pattern to the most recent designs.
