Is there any fan art of the original concept for Hydreigon?
>Originally, according to interviews with Ken Sugimori in Nintendo Dream, Hydreigon and its pre-evolutions were intended to be cybernetic dragons incorporating aspects of tanks within their bodies before being redesigned around the theme of Yamata no Orochi. The tank track-like markings on Hydreigon's body are a remnant of this design. Furthermore, although Yamata no Orochi typically has eight heads in mythology, Hydreigon was drawn with a fewer number of heads in order to appear less confusing.
Pic somewhat related; it's fan art of the original concept for Sawk and Throh.
>According to interviews with Ken Sugimori in Nintendo Dream, in development, Sawk and Throh both had horns, making them look more like Oni. However, they were replaced with eyebrows so as not to clash with Tornadus and Thundurus, who both were originally designed to be red and blue, like Throh and Sawk.
