One fan of Nintendo's Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has created concept art of what the paradox form of legendary Pokemon Lugia would look like. Given that there are a limited number of pocket creatures in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet that can be found in this unique form, the franchise's fanbase will likely be very interested to see what creative community members come up with on their own.
Long-time players of the video games likely always look forward to the new things developers bring to the table for every released title. Paradox forms in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is one of the features that is unique to the 2022 Nintendo Switch title, and the fanbase seems to be having a lot of fun with it. With only a specific roster of Pokemon having these special features, a lot of artistic fans have been conceptualizing and making their own artwork that feature other pocket creatures in their Pokemon Scarlet and Violet paradox forms.
On Reddit, user pandaga shared the artwork they created featuring the legendary Psychic/Flying-type Pokemon Lugia. In the art piece, Lugia is seen almost on all fours, with distinct spikes and sharp fins on significant points over its body. The artist had decided to call their version of the legendary, "Lugia, Silver Tempest." According to the artist, they were inspired by the Pokemon TCG set that was specifically made to feature Lugia. They said that it seemed to match the artwork perfectly, and thought that it was too cool to pass on.
For some fans, pandaga's Lugia will seem like a far-cry from the normally sleek-looking Pokemon. However, given that paradox forms have more ancient features, the Lugia seems like it would fit in well with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's current roster. Replies on the Reddit thread complimented the artist's vision, and even opened up discussion on what type this paradox form Lugia would be in the game. Others also pointed out that the artist's pocket creature had a great resemblance to the Monster Hunter series' Tigrex and Rathalos, due to its form and the spikes on its body.
According to their Reddit profile, pandaga has made other fan art featuring the Pokemon franchise. Their work includes a piece featuring Pokemon Scarlet's Professor Sada and another one highlighting Trainer Red and his Pikachu. With their version of Lugia being just the start, hopefully the artist will be inspired to make paradox form Pokemon fan art in the future.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are available on Nintendo Switch.
