    They are cute, I like them. Basing them on Tempura is neat, nice counterpart to Tatsugiri.

    This is the best fakemon made ever, no bias whatsoever, we have no reason to continue from here, shut down the sub

    Awesome work man!

    This gave me an idea. If there could be a horseshoe crab fakemon (who’s not Kabuto), maybe Sakugiri could act as a “lower jaw” for this fakemon, while crab’s mandibles form the upper jaw.

    They may need a variant Dondozo friend. UwU

    These are really lovely concepts, the convergent aspect comes from them being shrimp instead of fish? Not the *most* transformative compared to jellyfish vs. mushroom, mole vs. eel, but I think it’s acceptable with Sinistea and Poltchageist both being ghosts. Although if you wanted them to be convergent forms you’d have to make them strong against their original counterpart-

    * Toedscruel: Ground/Grass > Tentacruel: Water/Poison
    * Wugtrio: Water > Dugtrio: Ground
    * Sinistcha: Grass/Ghost > Polteageist: Ghost

    > *”All ecologically similar Pokémon have at least one type that is strong against their original counterpart’s typing. For example, the Water type of Wiglett’s line is strong against Diglett’s line, which is Ground type. This is true for Poltchageist’s line as well, despite sharing a type with their counterparts, since Ghost-type moves are super-effective against Ghost-type Pokémon.”*

    Why not do what Sinistea and Poltchageist did and make these Dragon as well so that they technically follow the pattern? I honestly don’t get any Water theme out of them anyways. Dragon/Fire-type would be a pretty sick typing.

    * Takes 0.5× from Bug, Steel, and Electric.
    * Takes 0.25× from Fire, and Grass.
