Holo everyone!
Today's a big day for our reveals, we have a big family of creatures we want to present to you!
While things have been going forward a bit slower than preferred lately, we've been working hard on the things we can help at times like these. We'd like to mention that these creatures aren't polished yet but we thought we'd use this downtime to host a naming contest and at the same time reveal them as they are for now!
The year of the dragon
Alright, as you can tell, these will be our dragon creatures for the alpha and beta version of the game! They come with quite a few evolutions as well! This is also our first normal creature that can evolve into many different types which explains why the first evolutions have such similar facial features.
How to participate in the contest
1. Place a comment under this post with the dragon type you're attempting to name.
2. Include the name, try and make sure no one else has named it that yet.
3. This counts as one entry and you'll be limited to 3 entries per dragon type.
4. The above means you're eligible for up to 18 name suggestions in total, you can place all or more than one in one comment and we'll curate and tip you accordingly.
Example:
Normal Type: Hodor
Hints and Tips on what we're looking for!
These dragons will start out with a normal type dragon, which can evolve into grass, water, ground, ice and fire types. Those types will then have two further evolutions (we will reveal the next evo's in the next post) so something to keep in mind when naming these that the names need to fit with each other somehow but also leave room for evolving the names but feel free to be creative with how you do it.
To make it clear, there'll be 1 normal type, the "starter", then there will be 1 evolution from the normal type into Grass and the Grass type will have two further evolutions, although we may not reveal the last one yet as we may save that evolution for a later expansion of the game. We will however reveal the next evolution of all types in the next post and keep this contest running until they are shown as well in case you want to "wait it out" and attempt your name suggestions for when you first see the next evolution stage.
Prizes
Aside from comment upvotes for naming attempts, we will be giving out 50 Hive per picked name for a total of 300 Hive. This means that if we pick your suggestion, and you were the first to suggest that name, we will tip you 50 Hive on the winning comment as a reward and your suggested name will be used in our game forever. (Unless we're forced to change it due to unforeseen reasons such as insinuations/hidden meaning/language/trademark/etc)
POSH will also sponsor 10k zing per winning entry up to a total of 60k zing!
Alright, now let's move forward with the types! Starting with the base creature:
Normal Type
Grass Type
Water Type
Ground Type
Ice Type
Fire Type
Alright, that's it for today, stay tuned for their second evolutions coming up soon!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comment section or in our Discord.
Let us also know which type you like the best so far!

Naming these animals is very difficult. But still we all on this platform are working together to name these rare animals. Here I am naming six favorite animals. I hope you all enjoy these rare animal names.
Normal Type: crabels Talon

Grass type: grassdron
Water type: wheelhoo
Ground type: Anguis tryptic
Ice type :sea terbul
Animals are supremely sentient. I am overjoyed and inspired to see these new animals. I hope that the creator will bestow all of you with all abilities. However, the behavior of these animals' claws may derive much from their ability to defend themselves. When these animals touch various medicinal plants. Then a kind of poison is created inside their nails. Which above all gives them the ability to protect themselves and fight other animals.
Since they are all related, one idea is to use a family of things. My first thought was gemstones. Red dragon -> ruby, green -> emerald, blue sapphire, etc. You could add dragon-y suffices like rubyscale, or emeraldclaw. The base/normal type is possibly the most challenging, as you kind of want a blank slate. That made me think of blank piece of (white) paper, so Pearl might be a cute name for the starter.
I really like these names:
Normal Type: Zygon
Fire Type: Ignis
Grass Type: Herbon
Water Type: Hydron
Ground Type: Geodon
Ice Type: Glacion
Not polished eh 😆? I choose not to believe that haha.
Anyway here are my entries!
Normal type: Roaragon
Grass type: Meadogon
Water type: Aquagon
Ground type: Terragon
Ice type: Frostagon
Fire type: Blazeagon
if you were to zoom in enough you'd understand what we mean :D
Hmm the only issue I see here is the quality of these artworks. It looks like they are in low resolution so the lineart does not have that sharpness that you see in the final versions haha.
That's all I could find xd.
Yeah I wasn't being clear, in high res when you zoom in you may see certain lines cross over or colors not being where they should be etc, that's why we have our in-house artist @hiddenblade polish them for future use. Meaning if at some point we wanna create big resolution wallpapers, high quality physical cards, things like that, we need to make sure another hand has gone over them and polished them properly from the first artist.
Even though we pay the illustrator quite well they don't seem to want to "polish" it properly (even after many asks and offered a raise in commission). For now, since funding is tight we've had to delay the polishing process to focus funding game development but we still wanted to introduce new creatures and will continue to do so for a while even though they're un-polished and most won't notice it in these banners.
Ah I see but I have to say you have to squint your eyes to find those issues so I guess you guys are in the good now haha. Maybe it's because I'm watching it on my phone I can't really find it unless I'm looking for it. On the tab I might easily notice it because the screen is big. Good thing that most people use phones for casual use so I wouldn't worry about it unless like you said above these are available as wallpapers. Getting a second look through the in-house artists was a great idea. A new pair of eyes will always find some issues if any.
I'd have to share the high res ones for you to notice I guess. :D
Haha I guess.
Wow, this is a great idea, and it adds a lot to the community, since we can interact and contribute to the structure of the game...
Normal Type: Dracongray

Hello greetings to all! I want to share with you these names for the Type Grass creature:

Normal Type: Zarix
Fire Type: Emberon

I would call this fire-type dragon Radon, which in Japanese is a contradiction Pteranodon
In Japanese Radon also corresponds to Ladon, a monster from Greek mythology that looked like a dragon or a bird of fire
The first form would be: Radon
And its second evolutionary form: Ladon
Well we will make my first entry to the contest.
