Think we could get a tag or somethin for all these fusions. would be nice to have to actually look for more (especially later YEARS down the line.) And no a simple catchall like 'Hybrid' wouldn't work well, i like specifics. Personally I just think the tag 'Fusion' would suffice.

pokemon_fusion

These tags exist and are generally used in various situations:
pokemon_fusion
fakemon

Also see this thread. Fusions such as this have already been pushed under Hybrid. Fixing that would be a lot of work IMO, so probably wouldn't happen.

I thought hybrid_pokemon is the right tag, guess I was wrong 🤦‍♂️ Time to add an alias?

I don't know if we even need hybrid pokemon as a tag

maybe just hybrid? I'm not entirely sure of the line between "hybrid" and " fusion" when there's no obvious sciencey lore going on.

Actually I did a long, okayish-translated string of tweets about this. (account reveal, yay?)
I want to see the 34 artists try their hand at fusions besides Vap/Lop (but I have almost no followers so I don't think anyone in Japan will see it and be inspired)

In the case of pokemon, at least, a pokemon fusion is the combination of two (or more) pokemon. There are websites that can create pokemon fusions by selecting two pokemon, and it will combine elements of their in-game sprites to create a mix of the two. A hybrid pokemon I guess is more generalized, a combination of at least one pokemon with something else (that may or may not be a pokemon).
