Artist Creates Baby Forms for Legendary Pokemon Zekrom and Reshiram

A Pokemon fan with amazing artistic skills has recently created cute baby versions of the legendary Zekrom and Reshiram. Pokemon fans love creating Fakemon, which are unique fan-made designs based on official creatures, and among these art pieces, baby Pokemon are certainly some of the most popular choices.

While the Pokemon still maintained its black color, red eyes, and overall design, its appearance was strikingly different, and somewhat similar to the design of a Digimon, as another fan remarked in the comments. The Dragon/Fire-type Reshiram received similar treatment, becoming smaller and rounder than before while still maintaining its most important characteristics, such as a pointy face, feathery wings, and fluffy tail.

This was an interesting design, as the unnamed Pokemon fusion took Ampharos’ body and overall shape, but it mixed with the color, carapace, eyes, and antlers from Heracross.

Other artists also employ the concept of baby Pokemon in fan art. Another recent work that stood out was a pre-evolution for Drampa that was shared with the community last week. In this design, the artist made
