A Pokemon fan shared a Paradox form that they created for Jirachi. Ever since the special forms for certain pocket monsters were introduced in Generation 9 of the series, many fans have made their own based on existing creatures. This has led to a number of unique Paradox Pokemon shared from the wild imaginations of gamers who love the franchise.
The Pokemon Jirachi was introduced in the series' third Generation and is a Steel/Psychic-Type that was only acquirable through special means. The pocket monster starred in the franchise's sixth movie while also making a number of appearances in the anime. The creature is said to sleep for a thousand years at a time and will grant anyone's wish during the week that it awakens. One Pokemon fan decided to make their own Paradox form for Jirachi, displaying what a futuristic version of the pocket monster could look like.
A Reddit user named Ralminno_art shared their take on what Jirachi would look like if it had a future form. They have dubbed the result Iron Star and made it an Electric/Steel-Type. They also gave the Pokemon the Compound Eyes ability, increasing the pocket monster's accuracy. Ralminno_art even provided a little lore to Iron Star, which states that it was made by selfish humans and does not grant wishes, but rather destruction around those who try to command it.
Ralminno_art used a good amount of detail when making Iron Star, which keeps much of Jirachi's design while adding a few new touches. The Pokemon still has the star-shaped head along with the white and yellow color palette that is used over much of its body. It also retains the streamers that flow off of its head and body, though they are now made up of holograms. Iron Star's face and open stomach have been changed to LED panels that feature bright blue eyes while keeping the small tear-like markings. It is an interesting take on the Mythical Pokemon and helps show how older pocket monsters could find new life in the most recent entries of Game Freak's series.
Since Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will be receiving new DLC later this year, new Paradox forms will have to make an appearance. It will be interesting to see where Game Freak takes the concept, as there are a ton of possibilities due to the sheer number of Pokemon that exist. The developer could use older Mythical pocket monsters in the same way that Ralminno_art did, allowing veteran players to see them in ways that they have not before while also introducing them to a new generation of trainers.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are available now for the Nintendo Switch.
