Unveiling Exquisite Fan-Created Middle Evolutions for 3 Gen 1 Pokemon
A talented Pokemon enthusiast and artist showcases their creative prowess by crafting imaginative middle evolutions for three beloved Generation 1 Pokemon that have yet to receive one Experience the awe-inspiring designs that breathe new life into these iconic creatures!
A dedicated fan and artist of Pokemon has created impressive middle-stage evolutions for three Generation 1 Pokemon: Tentacool, Vulpix, and Rattata. The evolution system in the Pokemon franchise has always been diverse and inconsistent, with some Pokemon having three forms, some having two, and some not evolving at all.
This diversity was evident from the very beginning of the Pokemon franchise. The Generation 1 Pokemon games showcased a wide range of evolution lines and various methods of evolution within the games. Some Pokemon evolved through leveling up, while others evolved through trading or exposure to specific stones. Regardless of the inconsistencies, these variations in Pokemon evolution have inspired fans to create remarkable artwork over the years, featuring imagined evolutions for existing Pokemon or bridging the gaps between evolutionary stages.
Reddit user Tonny_Art has showcased their talent by creating new middle evolutions for Tentacool, Vulpix, and Rattata. These middle evolutions serve as a seamless transition between the original forms and their evolved counterparts, Tentacruel, Ninetales, and Raticate. For instance, the middle evolution for the Vulpix line incorporates both Vulpix's colors and Ninetales' colors, bridging the gap between the two.
Not only have fans taken it upon themselves to create new evolutions, but Game Freak and The Pokemon Company have also joined in. Generation 2 introduced a range of "baby Pokemon" that granted pre-evolutions to some beloved Generation 1 Pokemon that were not present in the original games. Examples of these pre-evolutions include Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff, Tyrogue, Smoochum, Elekid, and Magby, who respectively serve as pre-evolutions for Pikachu, Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Hitmonchan/Hitmonlee, Jynx, Electabuzz, and Magmar.
With the arrival of the Generation 4 Pokemon games, a range of new evolutions were introduced for Generation 1 Pokemon. These additions include Magnezone, Lickilicky, Rhyperior, Tangrowth, Electivire, and Magmortar, which are the evolved forms of Magneton, Lickitung, Rhydon, Tangela, Electabuzz, and Magmar.
It is possible that future Pokemon games will continue to bring forth new official evolutions or pre-evolutions for Generation 1 Pokemon. Given the lasting popularity of the Generation 1 Pokemon lineup, developers have revisited this concept multiple times in the past. While it is unlikely that any of these potential new evolutions will be part of the upcoming Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC, there may be opportunities to discover them in the Generation 10 games. Fans will eagerly await further updates on this aspect.
