This line I’m sure will be a bit controversial, as humanoid or human-like pokemon can either be a hit or miss. But basically I realized I didn’t have an early route dark type for my region yet, so this is the line I came up with. They’re basically goblin-like creatures who are obsessed with theater and entertainment. You can’t tell from their art, but they actually have two faces, one on the front of the body, and the other on the back of the head, and each face has a mask that uses the comedy and tragedy masks associated with theater. And they switch their face around by 180ing their head depending on their mood. So if they are happy and in a good mood, their comedy face is in control, but if they’re upset or angry, then their tragedy face switches over. There’s also a phantom of the opera inspiration with the masks in the final evolution as I see that as one of the most well known theater shows. Devaudevil is devious, vaudeville, and devil all combined, and Jespian is jester and thespian
So I’ll wrap things up at that. As always, any questions or anything feel free to comment. Credit for the artwork goes to my artist @poketrainervb on instagram. And yeah, hopefully this is a well made human-like pokemon that you guys like

I LOVE jesters!
These two are really great, but I think they could benefit from a middle form—it could end up being another counterpart to the Hattena and Gothita.
Also—Devaudevil is a really great name.
Love the design
That’s cool
He’s so cute
Awesome design and fantastic idea!
How about you make this a regional variant of grimmsnarl or a convergence on it?
I’m getting imp vibes from it, and I think it would help with the entire humanoid characteristics
These designs are so stinking cool.
Are there like stat implications of the two different forms, or is it purely esthetic? Like comedy form has higher defense, tragedy has higher attack?
Okay yeah. I love these creatures. I need a plush of Jespian NOW.
am i going crazy, or is Devaudevil a bit darker in the tragedy form?
Should the type change?
KRIS! SOME [talented professional] TURNED ME INTO A [pocketful of dreams]!!! BUT WHAT’S [even BETTER than that] IS THEY MERGED ME WITH THAT GOD FORSAKEN [send in the clowns]!
These names are stellar
Great names.
Come here little guy. I’m gonna spoil you so rotten. Definitely looks like he would love contests and dressing up. He’s so cool looking.
That’s just a Deltarune character
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
Omg I love them
My love of theatre would probably end up with me using these on an endgame team
Wow no shaco mentions yet.
Gotta change that
The number of people that’d call theirs “Pomni” for a Nuzlocke is too high to count lol
I love it
great design!
If these guys were real they would absolutely become a new favorite of mine
I would play the whole game with one of these guys.
THIS IS SOOO FREAKING COOL!!! NINTENDO NEEDS THIS IN THE GAME!! By far one of the best creations I’ve seen as of yet!! Great job, OP.
OP cooked and left behind no crumbs
Can they do anything?

Jevil?!
I am not even kidding I am sad this is a Fakemon because if it were real it would be my favourite Pokémon ever.
Aww duuude these would literally fit for pokemon! This looks so sick! Also, why are human-like pokemon hit or miss? I like those ones, what could be so wrong with them. Would this guy be a physical or special attacker and how good would his defenses and speed be? I hope someone can animate this fakemon, it’s just too good to be a still image!
