>>53745211>>53745146It is a "living clothes"-themed pokemon, originally when I drew it I was basing it off those designs where the interior of the clothes is fleshy and tentacly/tongue-ey, but that would be too visually busy and cluttered for a pokemon design so I simplified it a lot, you can still see hints of that detail in this drawing: the little flaps on the front legs, the gills and the vein-esque markings on the inner surface of the body...
But I guess the fleshy aesthetic was lost in translation somewhere so the final design has a more technological feel, whether on accident or intentionally
