Summary
APokemonfan is impressing social media users with their imaginative collection of Umbreon fusions that mix the Moon Pokemon with other popular pocket monsters.Pokemonhas always been a prime inspiration for creative gamers to invent their own elementally empowered creatures, reimagine existing ones with different types, and even dream up impressive fusions that combine the traits of two or more Pokemon to create some eye-catching designs.
Some of the most popular sources ofPokemonfan fusions are Eevee and its list of evolutionary forms, which players can unlock by exposing the base Eevee to certain items or fulfilling other conditions. This includes Umbreon, the Dark-type “Eeveelution” that was introduced inPokemon Gold and Silver.Eevee can become Umbreonwhen its trainer either levels up its Friendship stat during the night or gives it the Moon Shard, causing it to serve as a counter to the Psychic-type Espeon that draws its powers from the day.
Reddit user HoundoomKaboom, who has previously shared sprite-based fusions involving Eevee, recently posted a collection of their Umbreon combinations to r/pokemon. Just like their previous works, these Umbreon fusions resemble pixelated sprites that could easily come from the olderPokemongames. Specifcally, these fusions see the Moon Pokemon merge with other creatures likethe Psychic/Fairy hybrid Gardevoir, the mythical Darkrai, the classic Gen 1 starter evolution Charizard, and even its fellow Eeveelution Sylveon.
Pokemon Fan’s Custom Umbreon Fusions
Some of HoundoomKaboom’s otherPokemon-related artwork includesequally imaginative Gengar fusionsthat combine the Gen 1 Ghost/Poison-type specter with Pokemon like Squirtle and Mr. Mime, a cross between Onix and the infamous virtual Pokemon Porygon, and even a celestial-looking fusion of Ninetales and nebula-like Cosmog. Many of these fusions have been commented on by otherPokemonfans who find themselves wishing that they were real. At the very least, one has suggested that HoundoomKaboom submit their work toPokemon Infinite Fusions, a popular fan project centered around customPokemonfusions.
These fusions serve as a shining example of how thePokemonfranchise has sparked the imaginationsof its ever-growing legions of fans since the release of the originalPokemon Red and Bluein the late 90s. As more games were released and the list of official Pokemon has grown to a whopping 1,025 and counting, these fans have only gotten even more inspiration for impressive fusions, taking elements of their favorite creatures and mixing them together to make original hybrids that wouldn’t look too out of place in the constantly-expandingPokemonuniverse.
