Palworld Fan Creates Mecha Version of Lovander

gamerant.com:

A Palworld fan has recently devised a mecha version of Lovander, a controversial Pal that looks like a pink bipedal lizard. Palworld is a Pokemon-inspired survival game released in early access a few months ago, and it features 137 different Pals. This variety of designs has led many fans to create unofficial takes on these monsters, and some of them are pretty creative.

Lovander is a Neutral-type Pal that can be found in Palworld’s deserts, including the Dessicated Desert and the Twilight Dunes. This nocturnal creature was perhaps one of the most controversial Pals to star in the game due to its Paldeck entry, which hints that Lovander often goes out at night seeking love encounters with both human and Pal partners. Controversies apart, Lovander is a skilled fighter, stealing HP for the player during fights and being an able worker at producing medicine, laboring with its hands, and transporting goods.

Now, a Palworld fan called shunixe has created an amazing mecha version of Lovander. In this new form, the creature continues to be a bipedal pink monster with a lizardlike face, but it gains a metal body that resembles a mecha. It’s a pretty neat design that shows a completely new take on Lovander, making the creature seem much more dangerous in combat than its somewhat peaceful-looking original design.

Pokemon fans who like fan art may have heard of the Mecha Lovander’s creator shunixe before. Shunixe is known for creating several Monster Hunter-styled designs for Pokemon, coming up with unique takes on creatures such as Reshiram, Vaporeon, Gyarados, and others.

This work is far from the only example of Palworld fan art, though. Last month, a Palworld fan made a human version of Lamball. In this fan art, the artist reimagined Lamball as a young human girl with a brown top with sleeves made of wool. The Human Lamball had several details that resembled the original Pal, such as the same ears and horns, as well as its yellow eyes.
