Sableye Evolutions

Description

Alright, so I don't normally do fan art and suchlike, but there was an issue that I needed to remedy here. Many, many people have come up with their own made-up evolutions for the Pokemon, Sableye, one of my personal favorites. NONE that I have seen make any reference to Sableye's actual *basis,* an alleged alien visitor nicknamed the Hopkinsville Goblin: [link]

These "goblins" were reported in Kentucky, but very popular in Japan, where they've made more than one anime or video game appearance.

Thus, if Sableye ever evolved, I feel it ought to be into some OTHER "real" alien, like the Flatwoods monster (left) or Mothman (right) both of which are also very famous in Japan.

Most fan-made Sableye evolutions turn it into some kind of dragon or demon, which leads me to believe that the artists are unaware of his alien heritage :(

Sableye copyright nintendo! Without further ado:


PHOSPHOREYE - the Looming Pokemon - Ghost/Dark
"It blinds opponents with intense shining light from its crystals. The one on its chest is technically a third eye."

NUCLIEYE - the Dimensional Pokemon - Ghost/Dark
"Emits burning radiation from its entire body. It is said to appear where terrible disaster is imminent."

A Sableye regional variant based on the Chupacabra?
