Megas for my roof critters. These both lose their Rock typing but gain an ability that serves to replace it (kind of). I have another Mega planned that was going to lose its Rock typing on Mega evolving before I realised that would make three, which is too many and feels like i'm bullying the poor type.
Mega Shachiyane are noble guardians and can summon powerful torrents of water when on the offensive. More sprightly now they have much stronger legs, they can gallop over the rooftops with ease and to see one as it flits through the urban jungle is an auspicious sign.
Mega Waruwara are obstinate pokemon that defend their territory with reckless violence. Whilst a sense of safety can be gleaned from their presence, their overzealous brutality can be directed at innocent guests as well as interlopers and it takes a strong bond to prevent unwarranted beatings.

First references of the mermaid auuuu !!!!
So ! Basically this is a universe where there are lots of fish people and underwater island, and Luffy wants to be king of the sea !
More info down below the cut <3
Zoro ->
Specie : Tiger Shark
Luffy ->
Specie : Carp Koi, Koi, Showa-Sanshoku
Gear 5 Luffy/Nika ->
Specie : Shachihoko
-
So basically, I imagine Lu’ to have some sort of god like being trapped inside him, I’m still working on how the devil fruits would be adapted into this since they don’t exist.
But starting with Luffy it’s just that he has this god like being trapped inside of him, yearning for freedom…
I also want every single one of the mermaid design to have special mermaid ear fins !! I think it’s pretty cool :3
Another fact is that Luffy slowly gets into making up a group, like.. not a family, but just a big mer-group of loyal friends ( and lovers because I’m a multishipper, but posts with ships of this will be properly tagged 💕 )

Day Seventeen - Ice Cream Yokai
Rested upon the roofs of Fort Otoshibuta, a Mealster based on a legend stands perched and poised to strike any hidden intrusion. The Taiyakihoko is a fusion of a grilled cake filled with red bean paste and soft-serve ice cream of various flavors, with the most commonly used being green tea flavored. Although seemingly useless on land, a supernatural force allows it to glide across the floor and lunge at enemies with tiger-like teeth and claw-tipped fins. It also can cover allies in a soothing mist, protecting them from any afflictions that may come to them. Being both sweet and bitter at the same time, this chimeric Mealster is an excellent dessert treat for after any of the Youri Brigade’s savory feasts.

Roof related rascals. Climate controlling critters. Megas might materialise.
Shachiyane reside at high altitudes and have took a liking to the rooves of large buildings. Considered heralds of good fortune, they are revered as a blessing if they should choose your home on which to perch. They will defend their chosen home with vigor and are an excellent defence against fires.
Waruwara are, despite their frightening appearance, considered good omens and are encouraged to stick around if they take up residence on a roof. Exceptionally territorial, they will bond with whatever family resides in their home and defend them and their house violently from any intruders.

I realize this is not the typical request you get so pls ignore if u don't wanna write it, it's totally fine. :3 I'd like some headcanons for the blorbos as supernatural creatures!
Hi hi hello hello, sorry it took so long to get this one done. I've actually been planning it out since I got it because it's not one I can do easily off the top of my head. I wanted to incorporate as much stuff as I could so it took a while to really lay thoughts down finally. Anyways, here it IS. It includes supernatural and mythological creatures from multiple cultures, btw. Sorry if I missed any particular faves.
Kiryu Kazuma: Dragon
Bit on the nose but our Kiryu can't be anything but a dragon. Powerful to a point of being otherworldly and with a driving fire in his belly, Kiryu is dragon similar to that of Haku from Spirited Away. He is simaltaneously tormented by his spiritual being but also extremely conscious of his abilities and how to use them. Sometimes he fears the sharpness of his own claws and wonders if his powers couldn't be used for something better or at the very least gentler.
Majima Goro: Ouroboros
With his snakeskin jacket, Majima is an ouroboros in walking human form. Known as the snake that holds its own tail in its mouth, Majima is his own best friend and worst enemy. His lifestyle of being on the absolute razor edge has left him holding his own fate in his hands, or in some cases, his mouth. He constantly lives in a state of holding on to his own past or biting it off entirely and becoming someone separate from it.
Saejima Taiga: Werewolf
Equally sensitive as he is strong, a werewolf is the perfect personification of who Saejima is and his internal struggle. He's very much a man who has a love/hate relationship with his supernatural struggle. On one hand, it makes him able to protect those he loves and stand up for what's right. On the other hand, he feels like he's controlled by it more than anything. He often questions if there's more to his life than brutish force.
Akiyama Shun: Centaur
Swift and steadfast like a stallion, all with the charisma and temperment of a human being. Handsome by nature but stands out in his own special way. Although he is prone to living lazily in his own comfort, when push comes to shove, he wouldn't hesitate to race to your side when you need him. Also really good at kicking people really hard.
Tanimura Masayoshi: Moon Rabbit
Small but mighty. Typically found alone despite having connections to other beings or even working under other more powerful creatures. Agile and has a penchant for sweet foods. Many people see him but truly do not know much about him.
Ryuji Goda: Basilisk
Similar to Kiry, Ryuji embodies a powerful snake-like creature. Although Ryuji also has great physical force, his form is slightly more reserved in that respect. If he desired, he could simply destroy another person with so much as a glance, choosing to raise his fists only for fights and people he deems truly worthy.
Nishikiyama Akira: Shachihoko
With the body of a carp and the head of a dragon, Nishiki's tattoo is truly the embodiment of what kind of mythological creature he would be. Always trailing the cusp of greatness, Nishiki finds himself trying to evolve while also struggling to remain true to himself. It's this very struggle that in the end either transforms him entirely into one being or the other or simply tears him apart.
Daigo Dojima: Sphinx
Daigo is a multifaceted person with a complex life, which only makes it fitting that his supernatural form be equally complicated. Part man, part lion, and part eagle, Daigo in his older age is a balance of brute strength, intelligence, and justice. He tries his hardest to embody the best of all these qualities but struggles to find the balance within himself. Sometimes this drive to be the best of everything leads him astray, blinding him from what really matters.
Mine Yoshitaka: Chimera
Our mysterious Mine is not understood by anyone. He's truly an engima, with his form changing varying on the situation he's in and who's nearby. Sometimes Mine doesn't know who he is and loses himself in between these transformations. Ultimately, it's this constant desire to change himself that is the end of him.
Tatsuo Shinada: Tanuki
Playful yet mysterious, Shinada is a shapeshifting tanuki that transforms as he needs to survive. Mostly content to get by day to day, saying and doing what he must to make it to yet another day. Partial to free stuff, snacks, and lying through his teeth to avoid hard work or responsibilities.
Ichiban Kasuga: Phoenix
Wonder-boy Ichiban cannot die. Even at his lowest, he doesn't die, he simply transforms and shines even brighter. Although constantly pushing harder and forward in life does tire him out, he always comes back stronger than ever. Somtimes even he's amazed at what he's capable of when he puts his mind to it.
Yu Nanba: Ratatoskr
Known in Norse mythology as the messenger between the eagles Yggdrasil and the serpent Niohoggr, Nanba's time as a homeless man has caused him to observe all walks of life and made him a silent but observant person. Known more his brains than his brawn, Nanba finds ways to be of importance without necessarily shedding blood, either his own or someone else's.
Koichi Adachi: Minotaur
All brawn no brains, our Adachi. He's got a good heart in there somewhere deep down but the years have made him a little jaded. Fears his only purpose is to hand out ass whoopings and nothing else meaningful. Once he gets really riled up, good luck with that fight. The man can really pummel when he feels like it. Spends most of his alone time just doing his own thing. No one really knows what else he does, honestly.
Tianyou Zhao: Qilin
Known as a symbol of good luck, Zhao floats through life either trying his best to give better fortune to others or just getting extremely lucky himself. He tries to make it appear as though it's easy or that it comes naturally to him, but he does exert quite a bit of effort underneath the surface.
Joon-Gi Han: Selkie
Depending on the situation he's in, he can either put on or remove the skin necessary to preserve his own life. Often feels like a fish out of water, pun intended. Typically alone but people find themselves drawn to him anyways, mostly for his physical beauty. Beneath his desirable outer appearance, he harbors great power.

ever wonder what the good old rainmaker is based on? check this out under the cut for a quick bit of information.
this beautiful thing right here is called the shachihoko. a sea monster with the head of a dragon or tiger with body of a carp within japanese folklore.
male and female bronze shachis atop the matsue castle
the creature was believed to be able to control the clouds and summon rain, as well as hold and swallow "massive amounts of water" in their bellies. they are also known to be protectors for castles within japan in case of a fire. having a male and female pair at the top of the roof. the statues being carved out of wood, and commonly coated in gold, but not always.
so, the splatoon rainmakers are literally rainmakers. while likely common knowledge, i thought it'd be fun to post about its origins.
