by the way, as the 14th birthday of EOS approaches - id like to introduce everyone to the

PMD SPRITE REPOSITORY!

not only are all the character portraits of EVERY pokemon in the original pmd games in here - theres hundreds of fanmade ones for pokemon that didn’t have full expression sets, newer gen pokemon (even alolan/hissuian forms!!) and shiny versions too! please go check them out and be sure to credit them if you use one!

today on “how can I combine my interests”: variations of volcarona based on stellar classification!

actual stars are classified based on their spectral characteristics and temperature/color from hottest (bluest) to coldest (reddest) with a strangely ordered letter system: O, B, A, F, G, K, M… why not do the same for this stellar moth?

some other info:

• o-type volcarona are incredibly rare and are considered “shiny” pokemon
• m-type volcarona can come in the largest variety of sizes from large enough to easily carry a person to about the size of a cat
• k-type volcarona are the most common, with the higher temperature ones becoming increasingly more rare (and m is about as rare as g)
• while there could be b- and a-type volcarona between o and f, the latter two are so rare that there’s no reason to split the categories up further
• alder’s volcarona is the g-type one shown here, and the m-type one belongs to cyrus in my au
• the pupa/cocoon stage is too short relative to the other two stanges to be considered its own separate evolutionary stage like other similar bug type pokemon

scarlet and violet have blessed me with not one but TWO (2!) more volcarona to work with! so continuing with the stellar theme here are the two paradox moths on the far ends of the temperature spectrum…

“brown dwarf” slither wing is based on the failed stars of the same name that never get hot enough to sustain nuclear fusion in their cores (despite slither wing being much larger than its modern relative). it still follows the same lifecycle as volcarona but can’t fly at the end and never reaches the same temperatures. mostly gives off light in the infrared range

“wolf-rayet” iron moth is named after a kind of star that sheds off its hydrogen envelope to expose the extremely hot helium core underneath. most of the radiation from this form (and the star) is in the ultraviolet range and combined with its very high temperature makes it very dangerous

Made these back when scarlet and violet were first announced and totally forgot to post them

i feel like being a dragon type trainer would be the pokemon universe equivalent of being a horse girl because the whole thing would just be so complicated and expensive. there’s just no way someone with a dragonite or a salamence is ever going to shut up about having a dragonite or a salamence. something about owning a huge beast
