The first generation of Pokemon included just three Ghost-types: Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar. Each one of these Pokemon are known for their distinctive purple hue and often, ill-defined borders. Duskull is a Ghost-type Pokemon that evolves into Dusclops starting at level 37. This Pokemon was first introduced in the third generation.

This fan-made creation comes from u/AnotherInvasion, and it brings Duskull all the way back to the first generation. Duskull’s original look is akin to a hunched over creature with a white skull for a face and a mostly gray body shape. To bring this Pokemon back a pair of generations, however, this creator removed all the gray from the original and replaced it with a gaseous purple. The general shape of the Ghost-type Pokemon remains the same but with a much less solid look to it. The other major change is to the creature’s skull which is more pronounced and features new, creepy cracks. The result looks just like the first-generation Ghost-type Pokemon designs and gives this Pokemon a more interesting look.

The first generation of Ghost-type Pokemon were all purple figures that focused less on their exact shape and more on their level of creepiness. This is especially true for Gastly, whose appearance in Pokemon Red and Blue was similar to a cloud of purple specs with a face. This fan creation thus only had to take away some of Duskull’s rigidity to make this piece work and the creator did so perfectly.

While designs have changed over time in the Pokemon franchise, most of these have only been adjustments to show more details as the technology improves. This is especially true for those Pokemon that were introduced in the earliest games and generations which were first shown on very limited systems. In general, these changes just show what the original was supposed to look like when it was released.

While these changes over time can be a bit frustrating for those who enjoyed the original looks, the freedom of adjustment is important for the franchise as it makes its way to better consoles. Regardless of how players feel about those changes, however, this Pokemon fan brought Duskull back to the first generation in an impressive way.
