I'm thinking about making my first Fakemon today, bros. It'll be a legendary, called 'Regieval;' Represents the Dark Ages, Dark-type (naturally) and based on either a torturer or black-knight. It's lore is that it's much older than expected, but was most recently unearthed during the medieval period. Kings would use it to enforce justice across their lands and advise them on occult matters, but eventually its atrocities became too much to tolerate, and it was again locked away by four heroic trainer-knights and a giant, for the good of humanity and Pokémon alike.
I don't have a hack in progress or anything, but a potential plot I came up with is that it's the true villain of its game, manipulating the evil team. The Disc 1 antagonists, roughly based on the SCP and Aether Foundations, will stop at nothing to track it down and recontain it, although their methods are just as heavy-handed and frequently conflict with what the Pokémon League is willing to tolerate in its region.
Any ideas off of this, either mechanical or visual? Pic possibly related?
