What does /vp/ want out of a dolphin Pokemon? I've been trying to design one for ages but I'm so picky I can't settle on a final design so I thought I'd ask for others opinions.

Make it sexy

Show us your designs.

That is a given. Of course it's going to be sexy, silly anon.

Just accept the one you were given, Lanturn is based.

Its designed with angler qualities but its meant as a durable dolphin pokemon.

Lanturn, Kadabra, Bruxish, and Kyogre are the closest to a dolphin pokemon that we'll ever get. Just accept it. There simply isn't a way to make a decent dolphin without it looking as uninspired as Toucannon.

No I believe that with the right feedback I can give us all what we want.

You'll just draw a dolphin, give it anime eyes, and paint it blue like every other armchair design theorist.

There's an old saying: When a man points at the moon, a fool will look at the finger.
Sorry anons but I'm not in the mood to list the design elements these pokemon share with a dolphin. If you don't see them then your idea of a decent dolphin pokemon will surely be terrible.

I haven't even colored it yet and blue wasn't one of the colors on my list. I was thinking purple or pink actually. And doesn't Pokemon give all of its characters anime eyes? lol

also sorry again for the shitty quality I don't have a scanner
>>
>>32554102
>list the design elements these pokemon share with a dolphin
It's really easy anon. Just ask yourself: does this thing looks like a dolphin? If not, then it's not a dolphin pokemon.
Meowth is cat pokemon, growlithe is a dog pokemon, ursaring is bear pokemon, wailord is a whale pokemon.
Does kadabra looks like a dolphin?
No.
Then it's not a dolphin pokemon.
>>
>>32554135
I like the one of right, without horn and spines reversed for auto dynamic purposes.

The one on right is a lil too Salazzle
>>
>>32554136
they're just saying Kadabra is a dolphin because its a shitty old meme
>>
>>32554128
>>32554136
You guys are the worst kind of stupid.

>b-but it's a Triggerfish!
Just because it isn't a 1:1 recreation of a dolphin doesn't mean that it isn't inspired by a dolphin.
>>
>>32554146
One on left*** is too Salazzle.
>>
>>32554150
There aren't 1:1 recreations of animals in pokemon.
Your argument is stupid.
Stop trolling.
>>
>>32554146
thanks for the criticism I really appreciate and I'll use this in the future in remaking these two. I plan on sometime in the future making a ROM hack and making some dolphin Pokemon the focus so I've really got to get these designs right. I intend on making a male only version and a female only version.

But this is just only if I can get a design that I really like and one that I think other people will like. These are my favorite animals and I just want other people to see what I see in them.
>>
>>32554152
It's the face isn't it? I want her to look attractive but I guess I didn't realize I had already seen that look before lol I don't even like Salazzle that much so this surprises me.
>>
>>32554150
It was good bait, but now you've just gone full retard.
>>
>>32554170
>>32554175
>It's the face isn't it?
Yes, the way the jaw aligns and eyes. Make her less sexual and remove rabbit ears. Maybe put a gem on the head, or crest and make it psychic type.

A steel-water dolphin would be cool.
>>
>>32554185
She's supposed to be Water/Psychic and the male Water/Steel.

So make her look more cute maybe? Or maybe more wise being psychic type? I could go with gems I wanted to fit that in the design but I thought you guys would be like "literally my moms dolphin" if I did that.
>>
>>32554135
They're both pretty bland. Just dolphins with random bits attached to them. Right has more going for it at least. Left is just a dolphin with antennae. Scrap that one.
For the right dolphin I suggest you remove the dorsal fin and turn the spikes around in place of the fin. Keep the horn but remove the thick base.
Look at narwhals & whales also. The worst kind of fakemon are the ones that take inspiration from a single animal.

>>32554167
Toucannon is just a Toucan. The only liberty they took was the beak glowing red.
>>
Psychic/Electric or Psychic/Fairy

Give it an ability that doubles the damage it does to Water Types
>>
Make it an Ultra Beast

Not a real dolphin, but a living mass of sound waves (because dolphins are known for echolcation) taking a dolphin-like shape
>>
>>32554216
>"literally my moms dolphin"
>So make her look more cute maybe?
The male should be Steel-Water, wise or ruff looking. The female should be more like a happy-cute-smiling dolphin.

Thats if you have to make 2, I think 1 steel-water is enough.
>>
Wailord is just a whale with a funny shape

There is no problem with dolphin being a dolphin
Just add some glowing bits to it and call if done

Make it like Malamar, no water type
Psychic/Fairy
>>
>>32554243
>Wailord is just a whale with a funny shape
Now THIS has to be bait.
>>
>>32554228
no it lives in water and must be water type I don't care if there are Pokemon that are exceptions to the rule

>>32554218
They're sort of bland because I can't settle on a permanent design I keep removing and adding things that's why I was asking for opinions. Which is why I made this thread. You guys are giving me some great feedback.

>>32554237
sun/moon sucked because the ultra beasts were a let down for me so no

>>32554242
Yeah I'm making 2 and maybe more. There's not enough cetacean Pokemon. I might make 2 bottlenose. An orca. A beluga or some other whale.

Overdose by cetaceans.

It's better than having another dozen cats or birds or worms.

I want "literally my mom's dolphin" with weapons artificially attached. The gray color of dolphins could be improved. Maybe black or camo.

I know what you're thinking: "Pokemon can't have guns or weapons". Then I remind you that Blastoise has guns, Remoraid and Octillery are weapons, there are a bunch of "gun" moves, and they even have an exclusive ability.

A dolphin's pokedex entry writes itself. Just say something about it's intelligence, hunting prowess, and/or their relationship to humans.

Forget lame bottlenose dolphins though. I would much rather have a killer whale pokemon. They are dolphins and wouldn't need guns attached to be cool although it doesn't hurt. I'd be down with a bottlenose being the first stage and a killer whale being the final stage.

Sand Whale and Me definitely was and everyone still watches Toonami.
>>
>>32554347
Narwhals are basically dolphins with a tooth twisting through their upper lip. That said I want one too. I want all the cetaceans.
>>
>>32554185
No we need a sexy dolphin pokemon
>>
>>32554269
It is the Float Whale pokemon.
It learns bounce.
>>
>>32554375
so sexy dolphin but don't make it look like Salazzle. Got it.
>>
>>32554353
Well, both DO have projectile-based weaponry integrated into their designs

Remora is a gun
Octillery is an artillery

The problem with dolphins is there's no way to make it interesting. Most people's designs just look like a dolphin. A Pokemon should take inspiration from an animal, but not replicate it completely. That hardly makes an interesting monster.

A good place to start would be making it a bipedal land animal.
>>
>>32554714
It's too edgy for a regular pokemon, and too little edgy for an UB.
Dunno, the idea of a sound-based dolphin is great, but the actual design you're giving falls flat. Kinda looks more like a robot than a living thing.

The pokedex entry just needs to mention rape caves so the general public will learn about how fucked dolphins are

>>32553879
I liked the Cute dolphin that is evil and evolves into mastermind with its brain out. Yes it would be like malamar, but I think it matches Dolphins better.
Water with swift swim-> Dark/Psychic with ability: Mindtrick: All psychic moves this pokemon uses hits critical.

OP here. Surprised my thread is still alive and that typical tropes are being thrown around against dolphins.

Dolphin rape is no such thing. They even give bouquets of seaweed to females. Hardly rape if you ask me.

It just shows we as a society are uneducated about these creatures as a whole and are quick to demonize them and project our sins onto them.

Which is something I would really like to abolish. Cetaceans have saved me from my soul. I was on the verge of suicide before certain events with them changed me. That's why I want a dolphin Pokemon I know we'll never get one because Japan will never stop slaughtering dolphins and whales so I have to make my own.
>>
just make it a sand dolphin, ground type
there you go unique concept even if it's basically just a dolphin

no way would I do that after watching sand whale and me. I already want to see Japan nuked again. whale killing parasites.

>>
>>32553879
Well, I think it should be a fast but frail water/psychic type with psychic referencing how intelligent dolphins actually are. Of course its going to be a special attacker and should have either swift swim or soundproof.
