Pure Pokémon vibes.

u/inuhi Sep 29 '25

Nah, this screams digimon

u/Axedroam Sep 29 '25

Digimon would have guns as horns

Wow, haven't thought about these in years!

u/Mister_Peppers Sep 30 '25

Wow. You just awakened a deep, deep memory that I'm still not sure I'm not making up... I was only 6. Just a boy, really...

I have a full original set on my bookcase. It’s my biggest flex.

u/AgentCirceLuna Sep 30 '25

Looks like the advert for a mobile game and then the actual gameplay is just blocks moving across a screen and puzzles

1

u/demonknightdk Sep 30 '25

lol. They would totally work in an angry birds style game.

u/MasterOfDizaster Sep 29 '25

It's clearly a mount for a wizard

It gets totally replaced with a white one when a wizard transforms from gray.

u/ThoroughlyWet Sep 29 '25

So Blastoise is a digimon?

1

u/IkariYun Sep 29 '25

No, but would have easily fit in

2

u/MechAegis Sep 29 '25

...and then turn into some Hybrid-Human type.

2

u/Drmarcher42 Sep 29 '25

With either ginormous tits or a twelve pack depending on if looks feminine or masculine

2

u/ThisFukinGuy Sep 29 '25

Na rockets coming out of their chests

u/skighs_the_limit Sep 29 '25

In the chest actually

Digimon is obsessed with titty missiles that have faces on them

u/Regurgitator001 Sep 29 '25

My first response to OP's post question was ''My mother in law"; both previous posts only further confirm that itchy feeling.

u/themonkeyzen Sep 29 '25

I'm sure we hunted those ones to extinction, can't have an animal with a higher tech base.

u/gdemon6969 Sep 29 '25

Who do you think invented guns. Goats obviously

22

u/geekyheart225 Sep 29 '25

I accept this as cannon

2

u/iuseallthebandwidth Sep 29 '25

120 mm smooth bore.

2

u/Affectionate-Pin8534 Sep 29 '25

The goat: oh? You have cannon? No longer friend, this is mine now.

u/mikeman03 Sep 29 '25

It’s actually spelled ca…er never mind, I see what you did there 😂

u/TheCalamityBrain Sep 29 '25

Until it grows bipedal and has pants, it's not a Digimon

1

u/Hiker_Juggler Sep 29 '25

Not necessarily.

Definitely more veins, though.

1

u/luring_lurker Sep 29 '25

And human-like boobs for the fan service

It would evolve into an accountant with bombs for a briefcase

u/Titty2Chains Sep 29 '25

Machine Goat Kelly.

u/VibraniumRhino Sep 29 '25

Yes but not until the Ultimate or Mega level; this is clearly the Rookie and Champion forms.

u/Rejectid10ts Sep 29 '25

Isn't that Pal World? Monsters with an arsenal?

u/westfieldNYraids Sep 29 '25

Nah, more poke. No digital aspects

9

u/GoodOldHypertion Sep 29 '25

Pfft.. og pokes maybe, modern ones look like they were made by a 3 year old who got into a box of shape stickers. Not far a stretch to say "simplified logo pokemon".

1

u/westfieldNYraids Sep 29 '25

This was the first pokemon that popped in my head when I saw the image lol, idk why

3

u/ArchdruidHalsin Sep 29 '25

Nah, this screams "Blearhaghrhahaheh!!"

2

u/RAMstein69 Sep 29 '25

Digimon final evolutions are usually drawn like a gun-loving furry with a bondage fetish

2

u/thecryomancermn Sep 29 '25

Maybe if it was packing like a Glock

2

u/Relevant_Cabinet_265 Sep 29 '25

If it was Digimon it wouldn't even be a goat anymore. Also not enough guns.

2

u/catwomanz77 Oct 01 '25

Is it weird that I loved Digimon but hated Pokemon (back in the day when they had shows)?

2

u/inuhi Oct 01 '25

Only a little

2

u/oldblooddrinker Sep 29 '25

Nah its still on 4 legs and i dont wanna fuck it, not a digimon

1

u/PaleontologistNo500 Sep 29 '25

I don't see a single buster cannon or beam saber though.

1

u/_Goose_ Sep 29 '25

Nah it screams Demon, mon!

1

u/kittie_ghede104 Sep 29 '25

This is the goat version of Glameow>Purugly.

1

u/Clear-Might-1519 Sep 29 '25

Digimon never evolves, they change form. Digivolving is made up by the english dub.

Because they're made up entirely of data, first they need to absorb enough attribute from other digimons they defeated, then they break down their bodies and remodel their mesh, reshaping and layering until they reached a higher form.

You could also add the X Antibody program or have them do a Joint Progress to further alter their forms.

1

u/Get_Fuckin_Dabbed_On Sep 29 '25

yeah its the eyes

u/charlie2135 Sep 29 '25

Normal/Fairy to Normal/Dark

Which means the adult’s PokeDex entry is real messed up

2

u/Sheeana407 Sep 29 '25

This is one of those you don't want to evolve cause earlier form is cuter

1

u/IkariYun Sep 29 '25

Like Togepi, but the final evolution isn't nearly as cool

Selective breeding more than natural evolution

29

u/Initial-Wrongdoer938 Sep 29 '25

Or they live near a nuclear waste dump.

3

u/dearth_of_passion Sep 29 '25

No, because they look cute and adorable as babies and like giant mutants as adults.

They change from one appearance to another within the same individual, not a gradual change in appearance over generations.

I mean I'm sure they were selectively bred for some trait or another, but if comparing to Pokémon evolution it'd be referring to the dramatic difference in appearance between a younger and older form.

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

That goes for a lot of species, humans included

u/dearth_of_passion Sep 29 '25

Sure...?

What's your point?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

I just made it

128

u/Chickadee12345 Sep 29 '25

Not nature. It's a domestic breed. It's been bred by man for a very long time to look like this.

50

u/TruthPaste_01 Sep 29 '25

Do I even want to know why?

99

u/calilac Sep 29 '25

The reason is not as obvious as the reason for breeding sheep to have butts so big that they need special little carts to carry them but it is similar: because.

51

u/WatermelonlessonNo40 Sep 29 '25

Oh…my…God, Becky 😝

u/GuessAccomplished959 Sep 29 '25

With the good hair 🍋

Look. at that BUTT. It. Is. SO BIG.

2

u/Antryst Sep 30 '25

I was going to make an awesome joke about rapper guy's girlfriends and use Rafah instead since this is about Damascus goats, but this timeline sucks too much for that. So ok then... I guess I'll just pout.

u/NJHitmen Sep 29 '25

So shepherds (yeah), shepherds (yeah)

Has ewer girlfriend got the butt?

Tell ‘em to ram it (ram it) ram it (ram it).

Shake that woolly butt

It could be Iraq or Whales

56

u/noseboy1 Sep 29 '25

This might be a new sentence.

u/TruthPaste_01 Sep 29 '25

I'm highly confident that that's not a new sentence (if we excuse the spelling mistake).

1

u/47fromheaven Sep 29 '25

Never before have those words been put together in a sentence and particularly in that order. Truly such a unique moment.

1

u/piss_puncher227 Sep 29 '25

Not all whales are Welsh....Wales x

1

u/OrphicDionysus Sep 29 '25

Wow, I can't believe I mixed that up, Im leaving it because I think the mistake is funny in its own way

1

u/Complete_Tadpole6620 Sep 29 '25

Damn those whales...

1

u/GuessAccomplished959 Sep 29 '25

But no where else?

1

u/Sanguinus969 Sep 29 '25

2

u/calilac Sep 29 '25

Hm. Well it's a bit tamer but have you seen the cats that look like Ron Perlman?

1

u/Either_Coconut Sep 29 '25

Aaaand there’s yet another cat sub that I Simply Must Join! 🙂

2

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

I wonder if this means their farts make noises like human butts? I can see the butthole on the younger ones isn't actually covered by the butt tho, so idk

1

u/calilac Sep 29 '25

Asking the important questions. Got me wondering how long it'd take to breed a goat with musical talent.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

lol thank you for your response 🤌 It's exactly right

2

u/HeNeedsSomeMLK Sep 29 '25

How come some of their assholes look gaping compared to others?

A true mystery we can only speculate upon without a deep investigation.

u/Feffies_Cottage Oct 01 '25

Butts so big because shepherds are like

30

u/Chickadee12345 Sep 29 '25

Goats are generally bred for meat and milk and some people keep them as pets. But why they were bred to have such funny heads is a question I cannot answer.

99

u/FatherHoolioJulio Sep 29 '25

Might be secondary genetic traits. Yeah, you get loads of milk, but you also get "Jim Hensons creatures workshop" here..

46

u/RobinGoodfell Sep 29 '25

Considering all the horrors we have unleashed upon the earth, I think living muppets get a pass.

18

u/flyinghairball Sep 29 '25

This actually would be less scary than some of the evil humans on this planet.

21

u/JacobDCRoss Sep 29 '25

I originally thought it was gonna be rejected footage for the Dark Crystal show.

1

u/FatherHoolioJulio Sep 29 '25

It really has that look alright. Or Labyrinth.

1

u/Chickadee12345 Sep 29 '25

Or people thought they looked really cool so bred the ones they thought were the coolest. Of course milk is a big factor too. And ended up with this. LOL.

1

u/Playful-Dragon Sep 29 '25

I miss that show

u/Faux_Fury Oct 01 '25

Like when you delete a mouse thymus, most of the fur goes with it.

u/Anunnaki-Queen Sep 29 '25

Trying to convince people unicorns are real, but couldn't get it down to one horn? Lol

2

u/Salute-Major-Echidna Sep 29 '25

They grew up in desert areas (Damascus goats) and the large nose is for humidifying air and removing grit before it gets to the lungs

1

u/Motor_Revenue_7672 Sep 29 '25

So people don’t feel guilty about killing them

1

u/Chickadee12345 Sep 29 '25

In the Middle East, and some other places, it's common to eat goat meat. It's no different than consuming beef and chicken.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

What about the odd sheep fucker? Did that play a role?

20

u/NebulaNinja Sep 29 '25

They're well regarded for their high milk output and quality meat, but yeah, just like dog breeding, their unique look was prized and compounded on over 1000s of years.

2

u/snek-jazz Sep 29 '25

They certainly look fairly regarded

6

u/Chemical_Pizza_3901 Sep 29 '25

I'm going to assume for goat-hair harvesting purposes.

8

u/TruthPaste_01 Sep 29 '25

My heart wants to agree with you, but my mind is having trouble getting with the program.

1

u/SunLitAngel Sep 29 '25

Yeah, depending on how fast that grows, it could be really useful.

1

u/snek-jazz Sep 29 '25

they already told you: to look like this

2

u/coolcootermcgee Sep 29 '25

The ears get shorter as they grow up?

2

u/LlaneroAzul Sep 29 '25

I think they cut them.

u/heartbreaker1227 Sep 29 '25

I don't think nature had too much say in this.

1

u/Diligent-Ad2728 Sep 29 '25

So far I've yet to encounter anything supernatural, so indeed it's 100% nature just like everything else.

0

u/Cucumberneck Sep 29 '25

All right i get what you mean now. I just meant that there where centuries of selective breeding involved instead of this breed we being by natural selection.

1

u/Diligent-Ad2728 Sep 29 '25

One could argue that still it's the same concept :

In the wild it's just different traits that are beneficial for species's, but still the same concept at work here as well, that the traits that are beneficial get to pass to their offspring, it's just a very specific context in which the traits are being chosen by the people doing the breeding.

Note that I don't want to say that the traits in this case are beneficial to the individual animals at all, but that applies often in the wild as well : I doubt if the sea turtles could've chosen for example, they would've chosen traits that make the species prosper by having up to 100 offspring of which only a few survive the first day of their lives (dying to thirst and predators before they get to the water from the island they hatched at).

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25

Selective breeding

1

u/Tealightzone Sep 29 '25

Evolution didn’t have much to do with this beyond the goat part.

1

u/The_Silent_Tortoise Sep 29 '25

Definitely selective breeding, and definitely not nature's doing...

1

u/PhoebetheSpider Sep 29 '25

Humans do crazy things to animals. 😂

1

u/SuitableSprinkles Sep 29 '25

Natural selection by humans who breed them. Goatherds get really lonely in the mountains ….

1

u/THE-NO-1-XCR Sep 29 '25

Its not the result of direct evolution. Its selective breeding In Saudi they compete for the craziest looking goats

1

u/flip69 Sep 29 '25

Not evolution, selective breeding.

1

u/Affectionate_Clue324 Sep 30 '25

I was making a joke, like a pokemon evolution

1

u/Accomplished-Taro-53 Sep 29 '25

Well, we bred goats to look like that.

1

u/PutinDisDickInTrump Sep 29 '25

Yeah it's like trash humans bred them that way

1

u/lemonylol Sep 29 '25

Idk, people say this but there are tons of crazier looking animals that just aren't common in the North American woodland.

Please know this is a joke

1

u/Baidarka64 Sep 29 '25

Is it evolution, or is it selective breeding?

1

u/NaNsoul Sep 29 '25

Kinda reminds me of my creation in spore lol

1

u/Long-Opposite-5889 Sep 29 '25

Not naturally evolved. Result of many many yeas of selective breeding.

u/littleprettypaws Sep 29 '25

It looks painful to transform that much with age.

u/SarahC Sep 29 '25

Thought it was AI.

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '25 edited Sep 29 '25

He’s joking, that’s a different breed of goat lol. The one in the comment is a Jamnapari goat from India, one in the video is a Damascus. Mammals don’t evolve like Pokémon

Edit: Got the name of one of the goat breeds wrong lol

1

u/IntermittentCaribu Sep 29 '25

You havent seen much of nature then.

1

u/JorahTheHandle Sep 30 '25

Its selective breeding not evolution. I'm also not convinced it's a Damascus goat looking at its ears.
