"I hadn't come up with those designs by chance, but I had been thinking for a long time about what the most likely choices Game Freak could have made based on their past working method. "I was obviously surprised, but modestly it made sense," Leopoldo explained. The only one that differed was the Water-type, which Leopoldo rendered as a blue platypus. Surprisingly, the Grass and Fire-type starters looked remarkably similar to what Leopoldo had designed.

When asked about his motivation for creating his own Pokémon Sword & Shield starters, Leopoldo replied: " It was one of those things I've always said to myself, 'It would be a lot of fun to try once.' The period between the release of Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and the announcement of Let's Go, Pikachu and Eevee was really full of anxiety and leaks, so I simply took the ball."ġ8 months after Leopoldo's art went viral, the official Pokémon Sword & Shield starters were revealed. "What really surprised me was the speed with which the news grew immediately afterwards." "I expected that there would be at least a bit of a stir, but initially everything was keeping up to my expectations." Leopoldo commented. The 'fakemon' starters he created were so convincing that games media and Pokémon fans quickly latched on to the designs with the hope that they were, in fact, legitimate. Leopoldo Spagna aka 50shadesofHeliolisk is a skilled Italian artist known for his stylish Pokémon fan art and is responsible for a 'leaked' image of the Pokémon Sword & Shield starters which garnered quite a bit of attention back in 2018.
