HDM-PKMN Pullman form

0001-0003 Bulbasaur family

Number one in the pokedex although not the first pokemon designed, Bulbasaur line is associated with the Kanto region. Their natural caretaking nature makes them an ideal starter pokemon for young trainers on their first journey. This pokemon is associated with (New) Beginnings, Journey, Nurturing, Growth, and of course Grass type. While they are also associated with Poison type as secondary type, this is less prominent due to stronger nurturing themes. Of the Kanto starters, Bulbasaur line is known for their Loyalty.

Known as the Seed pokemon, Bulbasaurs are drawn to sunlight, absorbing energy from the Sun and storing the energy for Growth. They are able to survive for days without eating by using the energy stored in their bulb (Endurance). Using the stored energy in their bulb, Bulbasaurs grow from their cute appearance into powerful Venusaur, with their bulb blooming into a giant flower. Their flowers can release Soothing scent that can Attract pokemons and Calm emotions.

In Japan, their name is Fushigidane, meaning mystery/miracle seed, symbolizing the unknown journey ahead full of mystery and wonder.

Type: Grass, Poison

Area: Open Grassland, Plains

internally screaming because I just wrote a pullman interpretation of a form and realized I know a person irl that fits every single thing about that form

Symbolic forms are subject to much variability. Even within the same culture, interpretations may change over time as people add their own interpretations to the form. This is especially true for the more popular forms.

For mythicals, while they more or less retain the core characteristics of their original myths, their status as mythicals allows for creativity inputs making their form subjected to whichever content about them is the most popular at that time.

For real world animals, they too are subjected to various depictions in media. If stereotypes in media being used as the most common way to interpret form associations and themes does that not become stereotyping?

It is freedom of thought to create new interpretations about mythical creatures and animals but basing daemon forms on those interpretations means the themes will change and none are static.

At the end of the day this is just another way to find a way to describe oneself in a more tangible/visible manner so that's all that matters..

#overthinking this i guess #me waffling over symbolic form's structure as a concept #musings #theoretical

Daemons come in all shapes and forms but what they all share in common is that they are their person's best companion.
