Description

I managed to find my pencil sharpener at home after returning from the semester at college, so I was finally able to get my light brown pencil sharpened and reusable! :dummy:

Mega Relicanth
Rock/Water
Ability: Rock Head

My contest entry for :iconkonarika: 's contest for pokemon mega evolutions! (Here is the contest link:  Pokemon ORAS Release: Contest! on Konarika's page.)

For this one, I looked into Relicanth's history and found that it's based on a fish called the Coelacanth, which range from light and dark brown to light and dark grey (and anywhere inbetween; there are even a few light tan and even dark blue ones) - the change in coloration has to do with camouflage in the fish's habitat; if it's in a more silty, darker area, they tend to be more brown, and if the terrain is rocky and a little lighter, they tend to be more grey. 

Story behind the design: Well, whenever I end up in a battle against one of these guys, I usually groan because Relicanth is pretty much like an underwater tank that, if I don't have a grass-type move ready, can be a bit more obnoxious to handle. To be honest, I sorta just let him draw himself into the leviathan-like tougher tank that he is, receiving a large boost in Attack and Sp. Attack (cause he's already got great HP, Defense, and Sp. Defense) with slightly lowered Speed because he's got a lot more to move now. 

Hope y'all like it! :aww:



I'm off of school for now, so my workload has been lifted significantly, but I'm busy getting lots of things done around the house and preparing for lots of things, including next semester's classes, possible job, maybe a new fish tank, etc, so it could still take me a while to get requests taken care of. BUT! I will be getting to them at some point, I promise.
