Fakemon Challenge #11 - CROPTOGRAF (Psychic/Steel) The Alien Message pokemon
This pokemon is based on Crop Circles and the idea they are messages from aliens
Tumblr media
This pokemons are said to come from outer space, their bodies made from a strange metal not found on earth. Their bodies constantly emit a low frequency signal that is said to affect electronic devices and can be felt by people around them, described as similar to be standing too close to a radio tower.
They poses great psychic powers, even tho is hard to determine if they have a brain and where it is in their strangely shaped bodies.
Some theories suggest this pokemon came to earth thousands of years ago, and their strange body shapes is what inspired some of humanity's first written lenguages.
Its name is based on Cryptography, the studies on how to hide and decipher messages

On the Forgotten Art of Crop Circles
Tumblr media
Source; Guardian UK crop circle gallery
Some of my favorite websites in the mid 90s were those of crop circle makers, with photo galleries, reminiscences, how-tos, and even a simple game using aerial photos of fields on which you could design your own.
I've forgotten most of the URLs, but one I do remember was circlemakers.org. Early, hand-coded websites may be a little confusing to navigate; let me drop you here for a little background history.
It's a fun look at a huge subculture — they had cons! — that blossomed in the transitional 90s between pre-internet society and today's. The infant web let them communicate, collaborate, and share their activities. Computers let them plan increasingly complex patterns. Hand-coded websites were a cinch for these geometrically-inclined problem solvers.
Yet the crapass nature of early search engines meant you would only find them through word of mouth or following links from sites you already knew about. Between that and the limited userbase of the pre-commercial web (mostly academics, nerds, and eccentric introverts), they could share their weird hobby right out in public while remaining largely invisible to the wider world. Sound familiar?
@brightlotusmoon your post mentioning "Alien Histories" ignoring the known authorship of Mothman reminded me of crop circles — "Oh, I know who started those; his name was Doug."
(Or was it? This account of a 1991 competition questioned whether Dave & Doug's 1970s crop circles really launched the fad. Other researchers have claimed to have found evidence of circles in older aerial photos or records. But geometric patterns are modern.)
One last item. Here's an account of a circle maker who recently hung up his boards due to very moden concerns. A pity—gorgeous art.

Poll: Which FOUR female Resident Evil characters can make the most intricate crop circle?
Tumblr media
Crop circles? Aren't those weird swirling symbols pressed into crops made by aliens? I hear some of you asking.
While I'm not gonna argue over their supposed extraterrestrial origin, all I'm going to say is that there are people who make these as an artistic hobby/pranks. Got it? Good.
Anyway, after spending a long night waiting for Leon and Ethan to leave the corn maze, the gang decides to do something else out in the fields instead of just heading home and wasting the day.
After a while, Helena points to a nearby wheat field and jokes about making crop circles. Just as Piers asks her how to even do that, an old farmer casually walks out of the corn maze, startling everyone before explaining that all you really need is a length of rope tied to both ends of a piece of wood that you would use to stamp down the wheat. Assuming you had a good enough plan for your design, it could look quite convincing.
And with that, the old farmer nodded and walked back into the corn maze, never to be seen again.
The gang looks around, spying a convenient stack of wood and rope nearby. Figuring they could cover more ground in groups, they split off into teams of four.
Team 1: Rebecca, Helena, Mia, and Sherry!

Team 2: Ada, Hunnigan, Jill, and Alcina!

Team 3: Sheva, Ashley, Rose, and Claire!

Winners go on to face the winners of the male poll so make sure to vote in both!
