In a recent fusion fan art, one artist combined Spiritomb and Minior to create an interesting new design for the Pokemon franchise. Fusions date back all the way to the first generation with Pokemon players trying their hand at creating new Pokemon from existing designs. Creating in this style requires artists to take pieces from two different Pokemon and create something new while keeping the original designs somewhat recognizable.
The Pokemon used in this creation come from the fourth and seventh generation of Pokemon, respectively. While Spiritomb and Minior are both dual-types and don't have any evolutions, they don’t share much else in common.
This fan art comes from u/HoundoomKaboom, an artist who has been known to create Pokemon fusions similar to this. In this fan art, they show a strange image in which a Spiritomb-like creature explodes out of a meteor. Pictured is a black ball with a pair of blue eyes and a blue mouth that matches the design from Spiritomb. Surrounding this black ball are red stars and shapes as well as a yellow and white fog that originates from the meteor form of this creature. This meteor is a clear indication of the Minior inspiration in this fusion and, as with that Pokemon, this would be a display of the Core form of this new creation. Completing this Pokemon fusion’s scary look is a small representation of the Earth and Moon. It appears as though this Spiritomb-Minior combination has the potential to eat worlds.
The overall look that this fusion creates is a new Pokemon that basically functions as a Black Hole. The dual-type Ghost and Dark Spiritomb and the dual-type Rock and Flying Minior combine to create a potentially planet-eating Dark and Flying-type Pokemon. While in the games it would be a surprisingly dark turn for a Pokemon to form into a Black hole, this fan art does a great job of showing what that would look like.
While traditionally aimed at a younger audience, the Pokemon franchise features some surprisingly disturbing moments. The Manga especially has featured some odd moments including a Victreebel attempting to eat Red as well as a city explosion.
Then again, disturbing is a subjective term, and, for some, the most disturbing Pokemon are great additions to the franchise. Even the earliest games feature creepy areas such as Lavander Town’s Pokemon Tower. Either way, this post is a great combination of some of the most interesting Pokemon in the franchise.
