Something for a certain AU.
I recently have gained some interest in a Pokemon AU known as "The Masked Vigilante AU", which was made by @shinyhappydigistar. They said that they planned on designing some villains for the story, but only had a solid idea for a character he named Pathos, so I thought it'd be fun to design some villains for this story, and see if they them.
First off, the aforementioned Pathos, who I have made a design for.
Pathos, according to @shinyhappydigistar, was a villain created (unintentionally) by Larry via the Indigo Disk, aka Terapagos, when he wished for a villain to validate his status as a "hero". Personality wise, he's very childish and somewhat whiny.
Now we enter some of the villains I made for the story. First up;
Dr. Generis, formerly known as Gerald Aaron, a Pokemon Geneticist/Mad Scientist who has an intense hatred for Chairwoman Geeta, who he was once friends with during his Academy years. Due to an accident, Gerald attained a volatile sense of hatred against Geeta, along with humanity as a whole. In order to get vengeance, Dr. Generis began to develop serums that infused Pokemon DNA into the bodies of humans, causing them to take horrific forms.
Next is;
Toxic Terror, one of Dr. Generis's experiments. He used a bullied Academy Student known as Harold Harlem, who was an expert on Poison Types. Due to this expertise, the Mad Doctor made a serum that had the DNA of a Muk, a Weezing, and a Ditto. The result was a horrendous, horribly smelling homonculi that was barely similar to that of a human, but could shift into a human form thanks to the Ditto DNA. After the experiment, Harold used his new powers to wreak havoc on the Naranja-Uva Academy, and was seen conversing with the two two faces on his shoulders as he did so. Luckily, Vigilante took him down and gave a thorough talking to the bullies.
Next is;
The Sugarbug, another one of Dr. Generis's experiments that was made up of varying insectoid Pokemon, along with the genes of a Flygon. It seems to have an abnormal vendetta against Geeta, an abnormal attraction to baked goods and acts abnormally calm when around the Exceptional Everyman, Larry.
Next;
Vulcan, formerly known as a well renowned Volcanologist Michael Simmer, a hotheaded Supervillain with a hair trigger temper. This pyromaniac can shoot beams of molten rock from the palms of his hands, which hardens instantly when it comes into contact with the air. Vigilante, with the help from the Water Gym Leader, Kofu, managed to stop him before he could burn down Porta Marinada.
Next;
Jordan "Breaker" Fernando, a former bare knuckle boxing champion, which was overshadowed by the existence of Pokemon and the abilities they had. Due to this, Jordan holds a seething hatred against Pokemon Battling, calling it a "fake sport for cowards" and viciously attacking/grievously injuring anyone who dared to challenge him. It had gotten so bad, that Vigilante had no choice but to intervene. Ever since he had lost to the masked hero, Jordan deemed him his only equal that he ever had, and vowed to get stronger just to beat him.
Last but not least;
Pharoah Phantomb, once known as an Explorer called Sebastian Collins. After his team knocked him out and sealed him in the depths of a pyramid he was exploring (after stealing as much treasure as they could from the tomb), Sebastian met a Cofagreigus that seemed to sense his rage about his betrayal. After many months, which resulted in their bond to one another to become rather great, Sebastian had grown malnourished and dehydrated, growing closer to death by the minute. Not wanting to see his only friend die, the Cofagreigus fused his essence with Sebastian, the two becoming one vengeful being. Luckily, Vigilante stopped him from killing his former colleagues, once he found out where he was going to do the deed.
Hey, @shinyhappydigistar, I hope you enjoy these concepts!
