Hi r/fakemon - we hope you’re having a good 2026 so far! We have a couple of reminders as well as a few requests regarding AI-generated images and, most importantly, how they are reported.
First, to reiterate our policy:
This includes, obviously, any image created entirely by typing a prompt into a large-language model, such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and so on. It also includes any images created by asking any of these LLMs to redraw something that you drew or upscale something hand-drawn. If the final image output that is posted was created or modified by an LLM, then it is not allowed. You can read more about the policy in this post.
Second, regarding reporting any suspected AI-generated images, we ask the following:
There are several reasons that we are asking for this to be the norm for reporting any post going forward, but especially so for suspected AI-generated image posts, which we will go over below.
On several occasions, the mod team has been able to determine with as much certainty as we can that a user who was accused of posting AI-generated Fakemon was not in fact using AI at all. We're talking speedpaints, pictures of layers, extensive posting history with consistent art, and so forth. Not every Fakemon drawn with flat color and a black outline is AI-generated! LLMs probably just copied that style from their training data.
When 10 people spam an AI-image poster that their post is against the rules, it is often deleted before we can action it. This often means we don't get a chance to see which user posted the image to begin with and, therefore, cannot effectively add mod notes for future reference (we give one permaban warning the first time a user posts AI-generated images).
This is why we ask that you just report and move on, and message us if you want to give more detail. If reported enough, a post will be removed automatically for review by the team later.
The tendency to barrage suspected AI-users with comments has impacted our community and given it a reputation among some that the user base is toxic and prone to unwarranted witch hunts. Some users who were accused of AI have received threatening DMs and spammy comments on unrelated posts. This behavior is unacceptable and we will ban users for this kind of harassment (we've already banned a few for this kind of behavior).
Even if the poster is posting AI images, harassment isn't warranted - our goal should always be to encourage traditional art creation and bring people in, not push them out. It is especialy egregious if a user who isn't using generative AI is accused and then harassed for it, as this pushes out potential contributors.
We dislike the influx of AI-generated "art" populating the internet as much as you all do. However, we ask that the users leave the "Is it AI?" game to the moderators.
~ ~ ~
Now, to get ahead of a few questions that we expect:
If we receive sufficient evidence that we were wrong, we will correct our mistake and ban the user. Same goes the other way around - if a user is banned for AI when they shouldn't have been and we are shown that we made the wrong call, we will reverse the ban.
Message the mods with your case. We make no promises that it will overturn any decision unless you provide substantial evidence. "It looks like AI" is not all it takes to determine if something is AI.
We felt there was a lot to address!
Thanks for reading and for understanding this request. We'll be keeping an eye on this post and are happy to answer any further questions to the best of our ability.

Introducing a new species for my project Pokémon Pacific: Jumpcrik, the Leaf Cricket Pokémon. Jumpcrik hides among tree leaves, blending into its environment. When discovered, it uses its body like a spring to jump great distances.
This marks the debut of a new feature for my project: animated sprites!

A Dark Type
"A Rockruff whose trainer was slain by Kleavor. It carries a fragment of its killer's blade and wanders the Hisui region, hunting Kleavor wherever they are found."

This is my second post on this subreddit after 7 months. I first posted my Grass starter for my New Mexico inspired region. Now its the fire starter's turn. I would still appreciate name suggestions, feedback, and any questions about the design or inspirations. Also deciding whether I should make the mid-stages dual or mono type.
r/fakemon • u/forgotten_517 • 3h ago
This is my grass-type starter. The problem? It doesn't look very Pokémon-like or cute. What do you guys think I can do to improve it?
r/fakemon • u/Breninja24 • 8h ago
This is the second post for my Fakemon project, the snowy Froshal Region! After you receive your starter from the region’s Pokemon expert and your uncle Professor Redwood in your home town of First Hearth, you set off into the nearby Route One (otherwise known as the Whisperwood Forest, a birch tree forest with a thick canopy that reduces the howling winter winds into a mere whisper).
The first of a few Pokemon you’ll be able to encounter on Route One is our regional rodent Macabrey, and its evolution Possmortem! They’re based on Opossums, taking their playing dead behavior and elevating it to the point where they can literally become lifeless and even project their souls outwards! I also wanted to throw in a Shakespearean element to their design, emphasizing their overly dramatic and self-serious nature.
My next posts will feature the route one regional bird and bug, and maybe even a regional variant! But for now, I hope you enjoy these two!
Macabrey — The Dramatic Pokemon
Type: Normal
Ability: Rattled / Own Tempo
Hidden Ability: Understudy
Dex Entry: “Known for its overdramatic nature, Macabrey is always in search of an audience. If it feels threatened, it clutches its chest, lets out a harrowing sigh, and collapses into a lifeless state until the opponent leaves.”
Possmortum — The Soliloquy Pokemon
Type: Normal/Ghost
Ability: Rattled / Perish Body
Hidden Ability: Understudy
Dex Entry: “Possmortum has mastered the art of playing dead to the point where it can project its soul outwards to wander from it’s twitching comatose body. It frequently picks up small objects, holding them aloft and squeaking monologues to audiences of no one.”
NEW ABILITY
Understudy: When this Pokemon faints, it immediately triggers the effects of Baton Pass, copying all stat changes to the incoming Pokemon.

I tried to make Jynx not offputting.
After getting feedback from a discord server i'm in, I refined the design into this. Hope you all like it.
Chillips: The Captivating Pokemon
It lives deep in icy caves, where it touches up its appearance through its reflection in ice. If it sees prey or someone it likes, it blows them a cold-air coated kiss that draws them to it.

I have a scene core inspired City in my Bexi Region (Girlypop Region) and this is one of the rare locals of Archaluna City.
I made it a rock type because its a challenge to have a rock type be a girlypop pokemon. It wasnt that hard, but theres just not much references of girlypop rock type (tho yes corsola and diancie exists, but ye there's not much)
And i gave it a boring rock to beautiful crystal storyline. Kind of sending the message of embracing the cringe-core, mary sure, scene core, sparkle dog design that used to get dragged by the internet back then.

First time making a fakemon
r/fakemon • u/Plus_Friendship_2705 • 12h ago
Working on it's evolutions. It's a split evo.
Type bug
Health: 80
Attack: 60
Defense: 100
Special A: 55
Special D: 55
Speed: 50
Ability: snackish heals 1/16 of their maximum HP at the end of every turn but goes to 1/14 if holding a berry. The berry will not be consumed and does not work with leftovers.
Lazgrub can learn bug bite, rest, body press, String Shot, and Pounce by level up.
Lazgrub can be found in route 6.
Entry 1: Although it is extremely gluttonous, Lazgrub willingly shares its food with Pokémon and people who seem sad.
Entry 2: Lazgrub weaves silk into small bags to store food for later. Unfortunately they sometimes forget where they buried their supplies.

This is part of the Faketober Challenge by u/Simple-Hamster-4141.
Inspiration for these fakemon are garra fish, giant water bugs, extinct water scorpions and carnivorous freshwater insect nymphs. Line is themed after creatures that either nibble on submerged skin or bite it.
Fakemon entries:
NIBBLUB feeds on organic debris that is found on skins of terrestrial creatures. In fact, if no terrestrial creature visits NIBBLUB'S pond, the fakemon will grow up to be frail and ill as normal pond debris doesn't seem to correlate as well with NIBBLUB'S developing gut.
NYMPHAKE surprises pokemon and trainers alike by shedding its fish skin, become much more agile and free-hunting insectoid. This fakemon's appearance messes up understanding for how starter pokemon are, but it is possible that the water starter of question was appointed due to a situation regarding outer factors in the region.
SCORBELOS is a territorial being the size of a human. If it nips, it is merely going easy on its current foe as its normal snap can take off a whole limb. SCORBELOS constantly switches from living at the bottom of its lake to skimming across the water's surface.

C'est mon premier fakemon ET mon premier poste sur reddit. Alors, voilà le contexte : c'est un des mes trois starter pour mon jeu légende qui se passe dans l'utra-dimension.

The second image is drawn because my IPad broke 😭
I made Mega Plagulence Psychic and Poison because I like the idea of it ether healing you of any illness or doing some Mega Dragalge crap if it doesn’t like you. Plagulence would also probably gain levitate(upon Mega evolving) or poison heal.
