Torchic and its evolutions easily represent the favorite starter line for manyPokemonfans, though its popularity is competed with by a great many other adorable starters seen throughout the nine generations of core-series games. Torchic is a tiny Fire-type chick Pokemon which is virtually impossible not to fall in love with at first sight, and yet evolves into what many fans consider to be one of the strongest of starter evolutions with Blaziken. This toughPokemon seems to have begun the odd traditionof Fire and Fighting-type starter evolutions, and while Blaziken boasts some impressive battle stats as is, it also features a Mega form which can raise its fighting capabilities even further.

Designed and shared online by the artist known as endifi, this collection of images show a human form for Torchic, Combusken, and Blaziken respectively, including their associated shiny variants as well as Blaziken’s Mega form.
