Gorebyss using Whirlpool by GlitzerKirby
GlitzerKirby is one of the German artists that followed the call and joined GA-HQ due to the Pokemon Tribute in 2016. His three Generation I contributions covered Hitmonchan, Voltorb and finally Doduo with the Run Away move that nobody else drew in the Gen I & II Projects.

Whirlpool
“Inflicts damage on the target. It may also afflict the targeted enemy with a Constriction status condition, making it incapable of movement. It will inflict double damage on a diving target.”
Whirlpool is as a Water-Type move from the Gen II games and onward. It was introduced as item HM06 but later HM05 in Pokemon HeartGold and Soulsilver.
The move deals both 1/16 damage to the target depending on the target’s HP and also can leave them in Constriction status. This prevents the target from escape or switching out with other Pokemon. This can last two to five turns, and in later iterations, the move can last longer and inflict even more damage.
Gorebyss using Aqua Ring by Dynamo-Deepblue
Dynamo-Deepblue aka Keturah is a cool artist from the USA who joined the GA-HQ community in 2018 and submitted her take on Gorebyss as her first contribution to one of our art collaborations. In 2019 she returned for the Gen IV Tribute with Azelf!

Aqua Ring
“The user envelops itself in a veil made of water. It regains some HP every turn”
While it does not deal any damage, the Aqua Ring can be a very useful move that works like a Regen in Final Fantasy and heals around 1/16 of the HP of the casting Pokemon at every turn.
Aqua Ring was introduced in the Gen. V Pokemon games. Currently six of the Pokemon in our Tribute are using it 🙂
Gorebyss
“Although Gorebyss is the very picture of elegance and beauty while swimming, it is also cruel. When it spots prey, this Pokémon inserts its thin mouth into the prey’s body and drains the prey of its body fluids”
