the bear stands, feet firm on the ground but whole body at a steep leaning angle. it’s hands are curled into fists and protectively positioned against in front of it’s chest and face, waiting for an impact. long fur grows around it’s paws, peaking out around it’s claws. head ribbons are curled into a kind of head protection. it’s fur is rather long and shaggy. it’s eyes glow a dull white.

normal: boxing. again, same reasons as before, boxing is a very simple mechanic for a fight, though it still requires a ton of skill. i tried to simulate boxing gloves with lots of fluffy fur around the paws and claws to cushion the blow. #NormalTypePokemon #Urishifu

a pokemon bipedal bear. it has a short and jagged green snout, and long green claws on both it’s hands and feet. it’s chest is covered in black fur with a ruffle of white on the shoulders that give the appearance of wearing some kind of robe or clothing. it’s arms, head and legs are covered in grey fur. wrapped around it’s head is some kind of ribbon, with the ends hanging down.

this is extremely out of my knowledge and comfort zones but MMA fighting is way too important to abq for me not to make something with it, and #Urishifu has a lot of all-types potential i haven't seen anyone do yet so here's my best try at it. #pokemon #fakemondesign #AhkitaRegion
