ITT: Fakemon that has better execution of a concept

>>27650802
Nope
Left looks like a digimon

The fakemon is a cool design, but it is certainly not a better concept.

The realmon is a sand mimic. The fakemon is just a sandcastle that becomes humanoid.

The last one doesnt even look like a sand caslte

The problem is that you can replace the sandcastle in your sentence with any object.

Only some digimon actually become mechanical when they digivolve.

Also since digimon are data that means they can become virtually anything.

it looks more like lucario than the real one, which makes it better

>>27651654
Some aren't mechanical, but cyborgs in a sense.

>>27651408
If it is a urban legend or not is not relevant. It is just lazy designing making everything possessed by a ghost.

Shitposters are out in droves today.
Ghost type means what it very obviously means; spectral, spooky lads etc.
Most ghosts that could be made into a Pokemon are haunted [thing], which is great because Pokemon are used to portray the region's culture so you can make use of the Ghost type to explain that something is from the now displaced culture of the region from the olden days. Like Aegislash hearkening to knights or Chandelure to decadence and Stone Masons clubs. Ghosts can also infer perils and old wives tales. Haunted Houses are a cool idea and it's good to package it in a silly way to give young kids from any background an easy in to start figuring out Pokemon concepts.

Plus, the aren't enough Ghosts to draw from that have something visual to make use of. Sure, Poltergeists are literally just invisible forces that throw things, et.c.
What would you make, a spooky shadow with sunglasses or something? Do you know how designing works or how much goes into a Pokemon design? They're meticulously put together, whether you know how to actually gauge a design or not and your hot opinions can't change that. Maybe learn a thing or two before spouting nonsense with assumed authority.

That guy was following up on my post because you're clearly the kind of person who needs to have something simplified to such extremes that it takes a whole day to explain it to them.

There are no completely unrelated things. The Sandcastle is a haunted house/castle but it's a sandcastle because, guess what, there are sandcastles on beaches. It's a funny take on the concept and it makes a haunted house pokemon possible. It also makes a future regional form of it as a doll house possible - which would also e really cool.

The fact you've needed it explained to you this many times is worrying, you may need to kill yourself.

>>27652640

There's no such thing as a bad concept, there is bad execution though.

Fish(Water) + Stoney texture(Rock) = Relicanth

A Kasha Pokemon found in the Pokemon equivalent region of Antarctica.

The thing about Shirodesuna is that it just really makes creative sense given everything that we currently know about Alola.
There's been a large emphasis on it's ecosystem being shaped a certain way that in turn affects how the Pokemon that live there find ways to thrive. Because of the abundant natural beaches of the islands, a ghost Pokemon pretending to be a sandcastle built by a random beach-goer and left there makes for a pretty clever predatory mechanism, since you wouldn't anticipate the danger until it's too late.
If this were any other generation, it'd be a horrible idea; but the timing and execution happens to mesh quite well with the overarching regional narrative they've been building.
If you're the type of person that prefers when a design can stand without context, that's fine; but don't go presenting your personal feelings on design philosophy as if it were objective, when "context is key" is just as valid as a school of thought.

If it was a ghost mimic that just didn't mimic sand castles to catch it's prey. A ghost type Pokemon that changed it's appearence depending on where you find it.

How is it a mimic? Why would it be a ghost is it was a mimic sand castle?

It's a mimic in the sense that it actively wants to trick you into believing it's just a normal sand castle so that you let your guard down and suck you down into it.
It's the same as Drifloon being a balloon mimic so it can fucking kidnap the shit out of unsuspecting children.

Anon, I think the problem here is that your grasp of the English language is imperfect. You seem to be under the impression that, if someone is arguing that this thing is a mimic (which it literally is, by definition), they are also arguing it isn't a play on the idea of a haunted castle. That is not the case. This Pokemon is a haunted sand castle AND a mimic. There is no "well it can't be a mimic because it's something else!", because it uses mimicry as part of its concept. You cannot under any circumstances separate the two.

You're pulling shit out of your ass, that's entirely speculation on your end. Also, Drifloon is based on a Japanese folktale so it's not a mimic either. If you had read the thread you'd have learned that.

Hold on, that's wrong. One is a spooky haunted castle that's a sandcastle because that's hilarious, the other is a bear that's a mascot (the mascot is a redpanda/maid(hence moe and affectionate and the head thing et al).
But they both do portray the deceptive danger of aspects of the natural world we are often taught, as children to consider cute - winnie the pooh and sandcastles.
So they have a similar theme.

Yes, I have. It is a mimic because it uses mimicry, and because it mimics something that it is not. What do you think a mimic is, exactly? What qualifiers are necessary for something to be a mimic in your eyes that the dictionary definition of the word does not include?

>>27653966
As someone who hates genwunners with a passion I still like Grimer and hate Shirodesuna. Believe it or not, some people have enough sense to judge things on their own merits and not lump everything into categories.

How is knowing the definition of words "arbitrary"? And when have I once stated in this thread that I rejected your idea of its concept being a haunted (sand)castle? You don't get to ignore the English language in order to make your point. It IS a mimic, by definition. No room for debate.

The Haunted Castle deal makes so much more sense, given the information available, than this mimic bullshit. Randomly saying it's not a haunted castle at all is absolute nonsense - it absolutely is. It might borrow from the whole mimic thing, but is it does it's as an aside.
In closing, it is a haunted castle. First and foremost that is very obviously what it is designed to be.

Not some. It pretends to be (mimics) an ordinary sandcastle, when it is in fact either A) a preexisting sandcastle that has been possessed, or B) possessed sand that shapes itself into a sandcastle. We don't know which of the two it is yet, but ultimately that doesn't matter. What type it is is inconsequential to whether or not something qualifies as a mimic, as per the definition of the word. To ignore that is, quite simply, to ignore the definition of words to suit your own fundamentally ignorant opinion.

It can be both. Every Mimicking doesn't have to be a possession, and every possession doesn't need to be an intentional mimic (though, to some extent it is still mimicking, unless it drastically changes the form), but in some cases a possessed object CAN be a Pokemon trying to mimic that object.

By possessing it doesn't mimic being the possessed object, it becomes the possessed object. Mimics are objects that copy the look of another object. Ghosts that posses something don't copy it, they become the object. Therefor a possessed sandcastle is not a mimic. It is just a possessed sandcastle.

Irony, plain and simple. I explained this already, too. It is a haunted castle. It's a castle that is ghost type. It is literally the premise for Dracula - the most iconic horror story of all time. It's so universally understood it scares me that you didn't automatically see it.

If you want to make a mimic, you don't make it a ghost castle because that would be counter-intuitive and just making a mimic for its own sake is stupid anyway since there's nothing for it to be based on, it's just a random mimic for the sake of one, as opposed to the very obvious reading of it being the very well known Haunted Castle trope.

Possession doesn't mean "transform". It is another being (usually a ghost) inhabiting an object (or living creature, for that matter).

Whether or not it is mimicking said object or person depends on how it looks and acts. And it can be both intentional or unintentional as to how much it mimics something while possessing it. If it TRIES to look and act like the thing it possesses, it is clearly mimicking, as per the definition of the word.

Mimics don't need to be possessed things, and possessed things don't need to be intentional mimics, but they can both certainly be happening at the same time.

>What does Goylurk have to do with this?
There can only be one Ground/Ghost Pokemon.

Is this entire thread two people having a rabid argument over a Pokemon they both like?

It really bugs me Ground is the "sand" type but Rock is the type that gets the boost from sandstorm

>>27655687
But by possessing a sandcastle it becomes one. So it doesn't need to mimic a sandcastle. It just needs to do what a sandcaslte does to lure people. And since it is a sandcastle, it is not mimicking.

>>27655807

>It just needs to do what a sandcaslte does to lure people.

And now I insist you read them all again because, if you do, you'd realise that it is a Haunted Castle. That is the design, that is what it is meant to be. That is the core concept and any assumed mimicry is a minor detail/not even a minor detail/non-existent.

>Ordinary sandcastles do not move or eat people. You follow?
Confirmed uncultured pleb who has no knowledge of Haunted Castles in media.
It's a Haunted Castle. Look up any Haunted House film. They House traps and then eats them half the time. The house is generally alive.
Watch the Japanese film "House", as an example - seeing as how it's a Japanese design. That film is based on the same core concept.

It hurts me that you're this stupid, but it hurts even more that you keep posting with an implied sense of superiority when you're clearly an idiot.

A possessed sandcastle acting like an ordinary (nonpossessed) sandcastle, by not moving or whatever, is mimicry. Are you daft? How are you not getting this?

I don't like the word mimic, so it's a haunted house.

>>27655807
You're trying to change the definition of mimic.
I'm 90% sure you're trolling. I don't wish this level of ignorance on anyone. But in the case that you are being serious, just know that just become something inhabits another thing, doesn't mean that it can't trying to copy that thing.

Possession is taking control of something, in this case by moving inside of it. The possessed thing doesn't cease to exist when it becomes possessed, it is just under the control of whatever is possessing it.

Maybe you think possession means something different from what ghosts do when they possess things.

>It's a Haunted Castle. Look up any Haunted House film. They House traps and then eats them half the time. The house is generally alive.

You're not telling me anything I don't already know. And in that example you just gave, the house acts like (mimics) a normal house until people (prey) are inside of it. For another example of this, watch the animated film "Monster House".

I just wish that you were capable of grasping this core concept.

I don't know where you all pulled the word "possessed" from, but that's not what a Haunted Castle is and therefore irrelevant.

When you talk about spirits - especially in Japan - they are imbued in people, plant, animals or things due to an event. A Haunted Castle comes to life after certain conditions are met - these often vary. It's a Castle that is alive.

You're arguing about nothing, I already won this argument hours ago.

You keep arguing that a sandcastle that is alive is mimicking another sandcastle and it's gotten on my nerves.

I'm sorry anon, I really am, but this isn't a contest. It's okay for you to be inherently mistaken about the meaning of and compatibility between words. It'd be far healthier for you to just admit you were wrong and move on instead of saying you're done with the argument and then continuing it anyway because you desperately need to get the final word in.

>>27656124
If we're talking about Pokemon, then we're not talking about literal, actual sandcastles

>>27656140
That is why the sandcastle is alive and not mimicking a sandcastle.

>>27656032
Okay thanks for confirming the troll in your roll.

I got the word possess from the person I was responding to. If that wasn't you, then tough shit. He said the word possess and that's what I was talking about.

But you... Do you know what it's called when a spirit imbues something else with its own consciousness?
That is a possession. Same concept, different word. Let's just use the word 'inhabit', because that's what's going on. The castle is only "alive" insofar as a spirit has taken control of it. Once the spirit is gone, the castle is back to normal, but while it is inhabited, the spirit can choose to mimic said [noun], both in looks and actions, to meet whatever ends it needs.

If you are trolling, then good job. My time is worthless but I could see that annoying the fuck out of a normal person.
If not, then I truly hope you eventually realize that you are misunderstanding the concept behind a few key words.

You have yet to actually provide an explanation for why it is not that does not misrepresent the argument of the person you're responding to, or outright ignoring the definitions of the words they're using.

>An ironic shitposter

I assure you anon, there is no irony in anything I've been saying, nor have I been shitposting. I've been attempting to correct you on some mistaken claims you've been making.

Also, that person talking about possession isn't me.

>>27656293

Because typing has nothing to do with whether something fits the definition of "mimic".

>>27656328

It is a mimic, appearance-wise. Behaviorally, however, you are correct.

>>27656256
>Nope. It's the castle's own spirit.
Which originated from...??? If nothing else put the spirit there, then yes the castle made its own spirit. Otherwise, something else has put another spirit inside of it (possession), which can then choose etc etc etc etc. Just because the spirit wasn't there before hand doesn't mean that it isn't possessing the thing that didn't have a spirit to begin with. Moving goalposts doesn't do anything to prove your point.

>>27656236
Kind of? I mean, it tries to LOOK like a keychain, but it doesn't really ever act like one... so it's appears to mimic, even if it doesn't act like a mimic. Partial mimicry perhaps?

>>27656368
>Because typing has nothing to do with whether something fits the definition of "mimic".
Then why does it have this typing? It is a possessed Sandcastle, that's why. And because it became the sandcastle after possessing it, it is no mimic. You can't mimic what you are.

>>27656416

>You can't mimic what you are.

I agree. A possessed sandcastle can't mimic a possessed sandcastle.

A possessed sandcastle can mimic an ordinary, non-possessed sandcastle, however.

>>27656416
But it isn't a regular sandcastle. It's a ghost that mimics being a regular sandcastle.

>>27656388
Nah, with these things the castle just develops a spirit due to tragic events that occurred within it.
generally old castles were seen as haunted and the castle said to have come to life due to them lying derelict and being overcome with sadness and lonliness or whatever events that made the castle vacant birthed an angry spirit in the castle, etc.
Generally that was said to scare kids who would otherwise play in the dangerous abandoned castle.

I didn't think we were still doing this

>>27656433
>>27656434
But how do you know that it acts like an ordinary sandcastle?
Maybe it lures people by doing stuff ordinary sandcastle don't do.

>>27656463
How do you know it does things ordinary sandcastle don't do?

Your argument is a terrible one because it can easily be reversed and used against you. Try harder next time.

>>27656463
I guess I don't know for a fact that's what it does but it seems a fairly logical place to go. Even if it pretend to be friendly like it was a sandcastle called out to little boys and said "hey there I got lollipops want one?" and then they walked over to it it would A) still be mimicry i.e. pretending to be something that it isn't, a nice sandcastle monster, and B) would make it being a sandcastle kind of pointless

>>27656483

Honestly, there's so much we don't know about this thing that it baffles me that there was an entire thread arguing about it. All we know are their Japanese names and typing.

>>27656463
>How do you know it does things ordinary sandcastle don't do?
I know because it is a possessed sandcastle. It sucks souls an shit. ordinary sandcastles don't do that so the argument makes sense.
