『ポケモン』から影響を受けただけあり、オリジナリティーを感じながらもポケモンライクなものになっています。
いくつか抜粋して紹介するので、興味のある方は下記からチェックしてみてください。
Delicate and graceful creatures, Loali are all wings and eyes – and natural charmers. Their hypnotic eyes can completely dazzle their enemies and their constantly fluttering wings allow them to change course in an instant. pic.twitter.com/DAOt9RMwpt

Despite their impressive height, Tateru are quite shy and not naturally aggressive. Thus they need proper training before battle. Wild Tateru are recognisable for their upright position and sensitive antennae, always alert. pic.twitter.com/uBQ5XWB1yh

Paharo tend to hide in treetops and lurk, their green "mask" allowing them to blend in with the foliage. Often the only way to locate them is to look for the telltale gleam of their eyes. pic.twitter.com/eN7Bz8weSv

This cutie is an adept climber, thanks to the little suckers located in each of its eight stubby legs. For the same reason, Omninesian children quickly learn to hide their cookies instead of putting them in the higher shelf… pic.twitter.com/8dID1WlsmG

This species of Temtem is notoriously bad-tempered, and tamers need all their skills to handle them. Once tamed, these muscular creatures can deliver powerful tail blows in battle. pic.twitter.com/4rr7zHkq48

Some say the first airship designs were inspired by this Temtem's ability to inflate air pockets within its body, allowing it to float and drift with the prevailing winds. pic.twitter.com/PFP3gEGjUJ

Traditionally associated with the University of Arbury as its heraldic Temtem, this species has a deep, piercing stare. Although winged, it preferes to keep to the ground and use its mind as a weapon – a symbolism the academics are very fond of. pic.twitter.com/ANI2ByMtT8

Raize inflicting Burn over his victims, looks so fierce! pic.twitter.com/2FqGLZUigB

As the Tucmani legend goes, in the beginning of time, Tucma and Kisiwa were one single fireplain where huge herds of Raican ran wild and free, flame and Temtem being one, until the Archipelago cooled and these noble creatures emigrated underground.

Here's the concept art for Raican.
Raican is a pure Fire Temtem and is the evolution of Raize which is the evolution of Raiber. This makes him our first announced third evolution! pic.twitter.com/cyzgqu9bbh

A native species of Deniz, this Temtem tends to drift with the Sillaro current, so as to conserve energy… but once brought into battle, his size makes him a powerful fighter. pic.twitter.com/vS2Y4pD7UV

We asked the community for a name and we got one!
Also known familiarly as "Sparky", this Temtem is a common sight in Cipanku. Children are warned to keep away from them – although normally good-natured and cheerful, they can involuntarily discharge considerable electric shocks. pic.twitter.com/T3mirXdMoc

Magmis' original habitat was in the lava rivers under the Anak caldera, but now they can be found all around the Archipelago, as foundry operators in Quetzal, heating systems in Arbury… And, of course, in Temtem battles. pic.twitter.com/2Eum1guk1p

Mastione are fire-loving Temtem, at home in the fiercest of blazes. They can be found grazing in woods devoured by wildfire. The tamed varieties learn to rein in their destructive tendencies – but even then, trainers should exercise care. pic.twitter.com/fWZORETrDv

When suddenly all the cutlery in your kitchen flies out of the window, you know this Temtem is nearby. In fact, it uses its magnetic power to move its own heavy, metallic body. The Cipanki always keep them away from their fridges. pic.twitter.com/JC2QYUjwle

Few Temtem are closer to flora than this species, a fascinating plant-animal hybrid that uses its encephalic leaves to produce healing and nourishing components via photosynthesis. pic.twitter.com/3LXHQLyYfq

Many Cipanki legends mention the kind but powerful Ganki as mountain spirits, mythologically related to lightning and whirlwinds. Although they are no longer revered as kami, the Cipanki still appreciate and breed them. pic.twitter.com/9BvEWlfljF

Although nobody has managed to decipher their language, the Valiar are assumed to be extremely intelligent. The Arburian dons are still trying to come up with a scientific explanation for the way Valiar use their expanding ears to boost their minds. pic.twitter.com/cF5a718GMn

And this was our first approach to Valiar. It has gone through so many changes! pic.twitter.com/IlJwWMlrQ6

The absolute favourites of toddlers all around the Archipelago, Pigepic are fluffy, soft and absolutely adorable. Voluminous and cumbersome, they normally float low over the ground, making them ideal playmates for small children. pic.twitter.com/csOiCVPSU9

Pigepic is just so cute, even on the first sketches! pic.twitter.com/WBlE7SM1da
