Get yourself a Backbone here! https://go.playbackbone.com/e/pragmagik

Fun Fact: Cheetahs aren't big cats! Cheetahs are in their own separate genus, and they don't possess some of the attributes that big cats have, like the ability to roar.

I mean there are only 7 big cats, 4 of which are leopards, and three of which were already taken, so yeah getting creative with some of these cat choices was really fun to see.

Kenzu being a Psychic type cheetah actually has a lot of symbolism. They are sometimes seen as symbols of divine guidance, which is perfect for a Psychic type.

I like the irony of Anjo being the most ruthless of the beasts but it's name in my language means literally "Angel" lol

Would be lit if you also have them represent something,
Raikou - The Light that strikes the tower.
Enter - The Fire that burns the tower.
Suicune - The Rain thats stops the fire.
Mashu - The New beggining. Represents the new life that was given to RaiEnsui
Shinno - Represents the Forest around the Tower, That keeps the air clean.
Hyouhi - Represents the Cold Night after the Tragedy
Kenzu - Represents the Soul of them being transferred or being modified
Anjo - Represents the Moon that gave Light on that Night.

Something like this please hahaha.
You guys comment on what do you think can help represents the other legendary beast.
+ HoopsAndHiphop. New legendary beast is wonderful, The one that represents the Smoke and Shadow

Okay, but now I'm trying to imagine their Paradox forms. Kenzu would probably be based off Dromaeosaurids, because they seemingly were among the fastest and smartest of dinosaurs.

I think that when the eeveelutions died, Ho-oh revived them in the image of the paradoxes

My new headcanon is that four of these beasts can create Terrain by making biscuits. Raikou creates Electric Terrain, Mashu creates Misty Terrain, Shinno creates Grassy Terrain, and Kenzu creates Psychic Terrain.

To be honest, we haven't had any new legendary beast members in the new games. Meanwhile, the birds and golems got more forms and members

11:53 i love how they look like they are protecting iji

This is just so clever and well-researched and I need Shinno and Anjo in my life

Snow leopards are more closely related to tigers than they are to leopards! :D There also aren't many "big cats", being jaguars, lions, tigers, snow leopards, and leopards, so there's probably gonna be some repeats!

Happy new year and love the new mascot guy!!!!

I dont get why people gloss over the fact that the designer said he wanted a blend of silhouette of cats and dogs. Suicune got leopard spots, but his actual silhouette is closer to a hound. Entei gives a lion and mastiff mix. Raikou is the only one I think is pure cat.

10:08 I adore the cresent markings on Anjos body- it looks like when Umbreon died, it’s rings broke

I can see Iji being a unique starter pokemon. In the beginning with diminished power and can only use water/fire/grass at the start for its ability but as you progress the game it unlocks the rest. Iji is so stinking cute i need them 😩.

Thank you for letting me help make the special surprise at the end 👀 and Happy New Year! 🥂

I love the designs! A design feature I miss from the official legendary beasts is the inclusion of colors not present on the eeveelution. Like Suicune's purple, Entei's brown and black, and Raikou's purple and light blue.

The word "anjo" means angel in portuguese and as a Brazilian guy I was shocked by how you could randomly come up with this name from totally different sources
Fantastic art btw. Loved the psychic one, closest design to the originals

You should do a sequel where you give them all these new beasts paradox forms!

Woah! These were all really cool. I didn't expect you to do eevee but he ended up being my favorite of all of them. I admire your creative naming scheme as well, I would never be able to conjure up names like that. (love the new drip too 👍)
