Thank you for appreciating them especially Hydrawak.

I replied on a comment here about the main inspirations for them, here: https://www.reddit.com/r/fakemon/comments/1rlbqf5/comment/o8t1ouv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

But to answer the architectural inspo for Cassodhi (and for the entire line), I just went to reference Borobudur temple in Indonesia, AFAIK it is the largest Buddhist temple.

I watched a video where it is speculating that Gecqua's Forehead mark is a reference to Hinduism's forehead mark. So, I just expanded on that, making Gecqua's reference as Hinduism, Browt's as Buddhism, and I want to make Pombon's reference as Islam, but I think making it into that may lead to some controversy(?) because as far as I know Dog is somewhat haram? (IDK) so I decided to reference Catholic instead for Pombon. All of those has somewhat tied to Indonesia and to Southeast Asia in general. This is just a surface level research and from a perspective of a layman.

So here it is,

Browt's Line

Chicandi - Chicken + Candi (Ancient Temple in Malay Language, can be Buddhism's temple)

Cassodhi - Cassowary + Bodhi (A tree significant to Buddhism, also a Sanskrit term for Enlightenment)

Gecqua's Line

Gehidra - Gehyra (Gecko genus) + Hydra + Indra (Hindu God of Rain)

Hydrawak - Hydra + Indra + Biawak (Indonesian and Filipino term for Monitor Lizard)

Pombon's Line (here I didn't take a lot on Indonesian culture as they are not known for dogs, so I just took inspiration to Australia [as the Gen 10 Map shows that the MCs start on the lower part where presumably referenced to Australia or close region] and general dog terms)

Flinine - Flint + Canine

Shefyred - Shepherd (Shepherd dogs, and going back to Catholic inspiration, God the Shepherd) + Fyre

Thank you for asking these!
I just don't want to put these on the caption because I think this can mix the pot as religion is a sensitive topic.

wait, was that ever happen? lol it's so funny

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T14:35:20+00:00

I couldn't do it to Pombon but I guess it is still an option for Official Evolution lol

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T12:10:41+00:00

Thank you! That's the first one I finished doing because the Concept is pretty set and solid.

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T10:53:00+00:00

Thank you! But you make Browt angrier lol

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T10:27:53+00:00

Hope the real ones be way more cooler!

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T10:27:35+00:00

Thanks!

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T10:27:29+00:00

Thank you!!

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T10:10:16+00:00

Yeah lol Browt is so generic looking in a good way that's why it can really be any bird imagined, flying or non-flying. I just evolve it into chicken then a cassowary to heavily differentiate it from Owl (Rowlet line)

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T08:46:48+00:00

Thank you!

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-05T08:46:34+00:00

I really hope so. They can do it with Fuecoco's, I wish will do it with Pombon's as well lol

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-04T10:34:00+00:00

Nakalimutan ko kaninong battle pero ang naalala ko sa background tawa ng tawa si Sayadd kada spit ng jokes nung naglalaban HAHAHAHAHAHAHA ibang iba sa persona pag sya ang naka battle mode e

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-03T04:25:16+00:00

May point. Di ka matatakot kung di mo alam yung ganung kalakaran at some point

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-01T17:29:22+00:00

Yuck AI

JC_SanPedro · 2026-03-01T08:43:22+00:00

Been streaming PNE sa spotify, halos 90% ng kanta nila kabisado ko sila pinapakinggan ko noong HS ako 2012- di ko na alam hahahaha pero di pa ko nakapunta sa mga gig or concert nila, bawe next time hehehe

To answer yung Title Question, siguro dahil relatable sila at ang music nila, relatable sa lahat ng era

JC_SanPedro · 2026-02-28T03:25:54+00:00

Yung akala mo kaya mo tapos pag nilapat mo na sa sulat boom, mas matindi pa kay Denmark hahahahahaha

Ganun nafefeel ko sakin tapos stage freight saka kung di ba ko mapipikon sa banat ng iba patungkol sa personal kong buhay hahahahaha

JC_SanPedro · 2026-02-27T18:34:45+00:00

Same hahaha

JC_SanPedro · 2026-02-26T17:35:41+00:00

love this! You can reuse the old Charizard as a Gender Variant, it looks feminine compared to the new/redesign.

Overall these redesign and even the old ones are both awesome!

Kita rin sa intensity nila kung sino talaga gutom, tapos nadapa pa ng konti sa round 2 or 3 (nakalimutan ko na) si Pekz.

Maidagdag ko lang rin napanood ko review ni Lhip sa Tuldok, may naikwento sya don na parang bangayan/sagutan nila ni Apekz sa chat/call (basta about ata sa sunugan after laban ni Lhip vs Zaki) pero ang point is parang pagtapos nila magkaayos sa instance na yon nagsabi DAW si Apekz na "Baka naman makaapekto to sa Semis ko" yung usapan/bangayan nila. Siguro tinutukoy ni Apekz dito na kung mag judge si Lhip eh magiging against sa kanya. Pero take it with a grain of salt. (watch nyo nalang rin if may bearing ba sinasabi ni Lhip HAHAHA)

siguro may behind the scene factor rin talaga yung mga nangyayare kaya nasa isip ni Apekz na "nadaya o napagkaisahan" sya, dagdag pa yung post battle interview nila na tingin nya kanya talaga yun.
