    Blackstreet is an interesting translation.

  2. AustralianDingodile

    I’m taking the Fire T-Rex. What’s the 2nd typing? Dragon?

  3. _ghost_91

    Love them. I think they are creative and nice. I like the typings as well

  4. Hand-translation/romanizations for names:

    Green Stego line:
    – Steggo
    – Stera
    – Monstegora

    Red Rex line:
    – Tynabul (bul = fire in Korean. Also “Ty” here is explicitly pronounced “tee” here, I’m just writing “ty” since it’s clearly trying to incorporate “tyrannosaur” and it’s not a wrong pronunciation)
    – Tyranium
    – Blackst (I think they were going for like “black steel” or something? Or maybe trying to portmanteau in “blast”?)

    Blue sauropod line:
    – Popodo (pokpo is Korean for waterfall, plus it sounds like “pod” from sauropod, plus plus it’s a cute sound in Korean.)
    – Showeropo
    – Seipod (sea-pod? I don’t get this one)

    These are so cool! I wouldn’t be able to decide!

  7. Wistericinia

    I thought the collar on fire starter was a crown, which I think could give It even more aura

  8. sandy_the_loach

    Oooooh I love the trex one. Kinda reminds me a bit of a land fire shark i made awhile back. The mouths are similar in design but everything else is different.

  9. Snoo-83534

    Love em! They legit look like something from fossil fighters!

  10. lilac-scented

    I love these. The grass-type starter’s head looks like the little leaf/furniture icon from animal crossing and that alone might make me choose it

  11. Ghidorah28

    Grass starter needs the Gigantspinosaurus spikes to be perfect

  12. KrunchyKumb

    always wanted a dinosaur specific pokémon game, you captured it really well. i’d kill to see a spinosaurus done in your style too.
