Description So here it is, the final evolution of our little Shreamp! It buffed up pretty well, didn't it.
I got inspired by the Mantis Shrimp, an animal that really impressed me because of its brutality. It can give really hard punches, if provoked! I suggest searching it on YouTube to get what I mean.

Name: Vehemantis

Type: Water/Fighting

Species: Punching Pokémon

Height: 3'11" (1.20m)

Weight: 110.0 lbs (50 kg)

Ability: Torrent

             Defiant (Hidden Ability)


Fakedex entry:

Even though they're not really tall, the length of a Vehemantis' body is 4'7" feet. They're very swift in water, but they can also live outside, even if they could be outspeeded by other Pokémon; one thing that doesn't change, though, it's the speed of their punches, which can break walls and undertake the shells of Steel type Pokémon.

Fun facts:
- Vehemantis is based on a Mantis Shrimp ;
- Its name is a combination of the words Mantis and Vehemence.

Evolution line:

--- lv. 16 ---> --- lv. 36 --->

The eyes look very suspicious... 
I don't know what word to use for them. It looks like it is weary of danger or something. It's on the lookout.  It looks a bit like its going "Hmmmm..."
Anyways, what I'm trying to say is that the eyes look very cartoony and expressive, the shape is very nice, top!

I think Clawitzer, an already existing Pokémon, is a mantis shrimp. It doesn't matter though, you put your own love and touch to this guy. Very cool looking (:

LorenzoLivrieri In reply to MyOwnRealm [2016-01-15 14:00:37 +0000 UTC]

Clawitzer is based on a snapping shrimp, actually. I love that pokémon, it's so cool.
Thanks anyway, I'm glad you like it.

Oh, right! Kinda easy to mix them up!

Anyhow, the mantis shrimp is one hell of an animal. I believe it can ''punch'' at least as hard/fast as a firing revolver (if not harder/faster). My memory is kind of blurry about that.

I'd choose this one as a starter of your region keep it up!

LorenzoLivrieri In reply to MyOwnRealm [2016-01-15 14:44:50 +0000 UTC]

Yeah it's easy to mix them up, they're always shrimps anyway. xD
Mantis shrimps could do something like that, you're right! I once saw it in a documentary on National Geographic and I was pretty impressed by it!

Seen them there too. I dropped my jaw and sank into the sofa just as fast as the mantis shrimp's punch. Incredible animal (:

LorenzoLivrieri In reply to hans-sniekers-art [2015-08-29 19:25:39 +0000 UTC]

It is based on a Mantis shrimp, a really cool animal in my opinion. I tried to make it look badass, so I'm happy you think so of it.
(This stays between you and me, but I'd pick Vehemantis as my starter, too XD)

I know right? I immediately fell in love with that animal after seeing it in a documentary, so I thought it would've been perfect to become a water/fighting Pokémon!
Thanks for the compliment.

Okay, this is really excellent! A little bit overdetailed (this is maybe more suitable for a Mega Evolution) but it's perfect.

LorenzoLivrieri In reply to DIAPAUSE [2015-03-15 22:50:51 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, maybe I got carried away and I ended up adding too many details, but I liked so much how it came out in the end, I didn't know which things I could've taken out.
Next time I'll try to remember that sometimes less is more.

By the way, I'm glad you like it.
