Requesting a better take on my fakemon based off of this parasite.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-eXmo-FnSAI was inspired by Parascylla, and wanted to make a pokemon based off of a parasite myself. And I came up with this - a fancy crab with a bubble dress. The bubbles are actually parasite eggs!
I like to think it starts off as this vain little crab that like to affix things themselves to look pretty - colorful rocks, bits of shell, coral and the like. A parasite has used this to their advantage, it disguises itself to look like a perfect pretty pearl that the vain crab cannot resist. Once affixed to the crab it has a perfect host to siphon nutrients from.
Upon evolution the pearl explodes (becoming a hat I don't have the skill to incorporate into the design), creating a foamy dress that houses the parasites eggs.
