GOLGOLIATH (Ground/Ghost) & CRANIEMBERG (Ice/Ghost)
GOLGOLIATH (Golgotha/Goliath) The tar pit Pokemon. Its body is made of tar, brought to life by the restless souls of all the pokemon that perished trapped in it. It uses their bones as armor to protect its soft, sticky body. The shape of its body resembles a Paraceratherium and the skulls from its armor are those of a Brontotherium/Megacerops, a Woolly Mammoth (Upside down) and a Woolly Rhino

CRANIEMBERG (Cranium/Iceberg/Cronenberg) The glacier Pokemon Its body is made of Glaciar ice and compacted snow, reanimated by the souls of the many pokemon forever trapped in it. It uses their bones as weapons to hunt for its prey. Its main body is shaped like a Megatherium and the skulls from its armor are those of an Uintatherium, a Smilodon and an Arsinotherium (upside down)

CRANIEMBERG's striped body is based on "Striped Icebergs" a phenomena in which icebergs melt and froze again over time, forming layers of different colors due to the impurities in the water and the difference in densities

The Fossils of the Kanto Region
Tumblr media
This was a remake of an old poster, and I'm much more satisfied with this one

The swsh fossils could very well be based on the crystal palace dinosaurs. These were dinosaur sculptures at the crystal palace park in London, which were all inaccurate to modern day standards. Essentially, they were putting random stuff together to get something which looked right. The lady who revives them is even called Cara Liss (careless)

this is a cara liss hate zone. i am going to fight her not with my pokemon but with my bare hands and she will not know what hit her. for legal reasons this is a joke (-@wyrmwiind)
Ugh. Thank you kindly. Fossil Pokémon resurrection is regulated in most regions with a league, but as I understand it, Ms. Liss got her work started while Galar's authorities were still debating the specifics of the restrictions.
In any case, I hope the Galar branch of the IPCUC considers updating their certification standards.

Root
My family is pretty distant.
My sister has been climbing the economic ladder since she went off to Unova to study for business, we saw much less of her after her first year of school.
We recently reconnected, out of business obligation....
I have been seeing her a bit more lately but it's really awkward and hard to be professional but I do what I must.
My mom has been a bit distant lately too. She was always kind and caring, usually keeping my dad's feet on the ground whenever he had big ideas and was ready to decorate the whole house for Christmas or open a restaurant where people who didn't have a lot of money could trade things for meals.
She's been a lot more quiet lately, and last time I visited her she was looking into more of her Johto roots and I even heard her playing one of her old instruments.
My dad was a dreamer, bigger than life and cared about people and pokemon so much. He opened his small corner store, Mercado if you will, to help trainers and travelers who came to Sinnoh. Everyone in the area knew who he was, and he could remember every fact about a person he met only once.
He was also a lover of lore and history, probably why he settled in Sinnoh. I miss him a lot.
My little Brother "Tei" was just as energetic as my dad, and he LOVED pokemon. He was really excited to go on his pokemon journey one day...unfortunately he never got to do that.
I dont do what I do as a Ranger because I'm trying to remember them or be closer to them, but I sometimes feel like they are with me when I'm just enjoying what I do.
I can say that while I love and miss my family, I'm a lot closer to the people I call a family lately.
My whole team, every pokemon that I've adopted or that has adopted me is a very important part of my family.
My Ranger Team and I are super close. Eddie is like the Big Bro I never had. Minnie is like a little sister, though she thinks she's more responsible than me, and we have known each other since we were kids.
And Jo is a great boss who I respect, and although she's never said it, I think she cares about us too.
The Girls of Team Wild Dragoon are pretty awesome too.
Jo decided to help out an up and coming team of Poke-Tri-Games athletes and they work in our Cafe to help support their team and we see a lot of each other.
Konani is very nice and knows so much about herbs, plants and foraging, and she's surprisingly very funny. If you ever go into the cafe and see a funny chalk writing, it's probably hers.
Vea is very passoniate and can be a lot to handle but she has the back of anyone she deems worthy, so despite her abrasive and in your face attitude, she's pretty cool. I often see her and Minnie getting in little competitions, so it's good that Minnie has a friend.
And Tia...she's, pretty cool. It's a little hard to describe her but "determined" is a good start. A lot of people seem to write her off as "uptight, srandoff-ish, and ice cold" but she's actually very caring and nice, she just doesn't talk alot.
We were getting a lot of people asking if she was in a bad mood when they first started but we assured them that she was fine. She doesn't have a glare that could freeze a Glaceon soild, but I think she's just trying to figure people out.
I really admire how hard she works at it, and when she's in the sky training for their next competition, it's really something to see.
But uh...yeah I think I really care for my found family a lot!

Fossil YAMASK (Ghost/Rock) & Fossil DWEBBLE (Dragon/Rock)
This two pokemon has made their home in a vast ravine rich in fossils, the constant interaction with the fossilized remains eventually caused some changes in their physical appearence as well as behaviour.
Fossil YAMASK carries the fossilized claw of an ancient raptor like predator.By doing so this pokemon has been able to channel this predators spirit from the afterlife. Thanks to his the pokemon has started to look more like such creature, featuing feather like spikes and claw like fingers. It brandishes the Claw as a weapon and uses it to fight.
Fossil DWEBBLE has made its rocky shell using a piece of bedrock that contains the skull of an ancient ceratopsid. Somehow having such remains constantly on them has affected them on a genetic level, making them tougher and more aggresive, choosing to fight head on instead of hiding inside their shells.
This pokemon evolve by leveling up inside of the ravine into DEINORYGUS (Ghost/Rock) & STYRACRUST (Dragon/Rock)
DEINORYGUS (from Deinonychus) now posseses the fossilized remains of the original predator from wich the original claw came, still embeded in stone. Despite its looks it can move with incredible speed, and having freed the fossil's sickle like claws from the rock, it uses them to slice its opponets with ferocity.
STYRACRUST (from Styracosaurus) now carries a fully developed ceratopsian skull on top of its rocky shell. Its body now has changed to become as tough as the skull with sets of armored horns that can be used for both defense and attack. It uses the large horns of the skull to fend of predators as well as compete with other members of its species for territory.

Either jaw or skull please?
Just answered Jaw but...
Skull - How is your mental health? Do you have someone to talk to on your bad days?
I've been doing well these days. A little overwhelmed at times with how many things I need to do, and helping Team Wild Dragoon with training, and running a cafe & market can be a lot, but I've been getting some more help.
I do feel like I'm missing something though...
(Irl, I've been pretty busy, and between trying to practice more art, make more videos, and get more people to see those videos, I've been up and down, but I'm ok. It's mostly about learning to enjoy the ride of life)
(Here's a doodle I did of Rai and his different AU versions)
