Fuecoco is arguably the most popular of the three starter pokemon to be introduced inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, as it is the focus of a majority of the fan art posted online. Recently, a creativefan designed their own version of Fuecoco’s evolution. Now, Redditor PaleAd6109 has created an enthralling final evolution of Fuecoco as a rock croc. In this art, Fuecoco resembles a crocodile, but orange in color with fire coming out of its nose, suggesting that the original poster imagines it will undergo a fire-type evolution path.
The art piece received mixed reactions from members of thePokemon Scarlet and Violetcommunity. In the comment section, the original poster emphasized that they basically tried to combine all the different and sometimes contradicting leaks about Fuecoco’s evolution. They describe their version of evolved Fuecoco as part crocodile, part rockstar, and part firebird. Meanwhile, Reddit user Sceptile_Trainer6592 was thrilled to see the fan art and named the creation Punkaimán.
While Fuecoco fan art appears frequently, the other two starter Pokemon set to be introduced alongside it, Sprigatito and Quaxly, are also proving to be quite popular. Not a long ago, a fan on Reddit published an amazingsketch of the final evolution of Quaxly, which was adored by thePokemoncommunity. Fans have become heavily reliant on leaks and rumors, as the Pokemon Company has released only two trailers, and a lot of important information about the game’s features is still unavailable. Until more information is shared, fans can expect to see creative art pieces like this that imagine the starters' evolutions.
