Fan reimagines Gecqua's evolution line
A Reddit user named Serbero posted fan art that imagines how Gecqua might evolve. Instead of simple upgrades, their designs turned Gecqua into two new forms called Tailash and Shengong, both pictured as Water-Psychic types. The fan versions keep Gecqua's signature eyelashes, add longer tails, and introduce brighter, more detailed markings.
The artist said the designs were inspired by the Chinese dragon god Shenlong and the Balinese Legong dance, which influenced the poses and decorative details. The post drew a lot of praise, with many fans saying they liked the idea of a Water-Psychic starter because that pairing is unusual for starter Pokemon.

Gecqua is one of the three confirmed Gen 10 starters, alongside Browt for Grass and Pombon for Fire. So far Game Freak has shown the base forms but not their final evolutions. The new games are heavily inspired by Southeast Asia, which has led fans to guess that future evolutions might draw on regional myths and styles.
What else we know about Pokémon Winds and Waves
Details have been scarce, likely because the titles are scheduled for a 2027 release and the developer is pacing information. The reveal did include some fun extras, like special Pikachu variants named Mr. Windychu and Ms. Wavychu that wear holiday outfits.
The games look to be open-world adventures set on a tropical island, with a big ocean, jungles, and even hints at underwater exploration. Fans are still waiting to see the legendary cover Pokemon. Some expect Winds to favor a Flying-type and Waves to favor a Water-type, which would match the games' themes. For context, the previous pair of titles used legendary Pokemon that also functioned as mounts in the world.
There are many months before launch, so fans will likely keep sharing concepts and theories. In the meantime, other Pokémon releases are keeping people busy.
