Why is Phoenix being censored? Is a reference to something that happened with her cosplayer during the Kure event?
The artist doesn't have Pheonix but saw her at the event in the parade consisted of Phoenix, Kasumi, Kashima and Jintsuu. (these 4 would often stuck together, hence how Kasumi is showing up with Phoenix)
Kasumi also didn't look like she enjoyed the event that much. Thus the concept, I guess.
Does anyone know what traditional clothes this is and the origins/inspiration of the armour? It must be middle eastern. Ottoman perhaps?
I was curious and actually asked the artist after starting following him on pixiv. He said: "Hello! The reference source of the armor is ancient India, which should be the Mughal Empire or the Rajputs. The girl's clothing refers to the nomadic peoples of Central Asia, and the world view of the work refers to the ancient Central Asian Khanate. Thank you for liking my work!"
Neither is the Hisuian Typhlosion story - anything in the leaks was stuff that was scrapped. Meanwhile, Hypno actually abducted a kid in FR/LG as published, and Hypno's tendency for kidnapping was mentioned in the Pokedex of the JP Red/Green before that.

Hypno has fans? I mean outside of the people who enjoy it for the Pokemon version of the goblin rape genre, it's one of the ugliest designs in gen 1 and its stats is horrible even for a normal playthrough.
