When SwSh was first revealed, I was wholeheartedly expecting ponyta to get a kelpie Galarian form. Even though I adore Galarian ponyta, I was disappointed that there was no kelpie Pokemon at all in the region, so I made my own. I was originally thinking of doing another form for ponyta, I realized there was another lovely horse Pokemon I could work with, and one I think plays the role even better than ponyta would have.
Galarian Mudbray and Mudsdale: I’m caught between Water/Fairy or Water/Dark so you can choose which one you think suits it better
A photo of my Mudsdale and my Stoutland snuggling up together for a nap as it starts to rain outside.
Stoutland’s never particularly liked being on camera, so this is probably going to be one of the few times I actually catch him in a shot.
Heya! How is your mudscale doin'? Heard that he was getting in a bit of trouble and feeling alone lately!

He’s doing well!
I’ve been spending the last few days giving him some TLC and making sure that he knows I love him. Stoutland’s been cuddling up with him at night too, since I asked him to help spend more time around the big lug.
He still likes collecting my neighbor’s free roaming Pokémon, but I need to have a talk with them about that… the Pokémon seem fine with Mudsdale grooming them and being protective, but they already have homes and some of the neighbors have gotten mad that I haven’t immediately brought them back, so I’m still on the hunt for a few permanent herd mates for him.
