== Cubism art ==
I saw my edit was removed just because someone considered it doesn't look cubism at all by just a simple glance in Google Images. Let me tell that cubism is an art movement that was very diverse and different between artists, and not because some pictures don't look like Brambleghast mean that it cannot took inspiration on cubism.

From Wikipedia: "In Cubist artwork, objects are analyzed, broken up and reassembled in an abstracted form—instead of depicting objects from a single viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context". Brambleghast is a tumbleweed with face, which is a simple concept but the important point is how it was made. 

First: you can see its face from any perspective, even seeing it from its back, being a similarity on cubism art where they represent the object from multiple viewpoints. The fact that even when Brambleghast "walks" it separates its eyes from the branch that forms its face creates this effect of abstraction more solidly. 

Second: the branches makes the face more abstract whatever the perspective you are looking at it. In fact, some branches make cubes between them, which is the form that was used the most in this art movement. In other words, you could consider that Brambleghast is just a ":)" face but you are forgetting that you are looking the geometric forms on its back at the same time. You can see [https://i.imgur.com/Zr0urvQ.png its icon] to notice its face is not one branch only and the back makes the face look more complex.

Third: the use of heterochromia was unnecessary, especially when Bramblin doesn't have heterochromia. They could have changed the color of both eyes and yet they did it only in one eye. There are a few cubism portraits where the eyes were depicted in different colors despite the fact the people they were drawing didn't have heterochromia. This is just an artistic resource that cubism artists used not only in eyes but also in skin or hair. You can see this in the branches as well, where they were more like color patterns instead being a single gradient like Bramblin had.

In summary, I'm pretty sure Brambleghast took inspiration in this art movement for multiple reasons that may be overlooked by some people given how abstract it can be to base a Pokémon on an art movement rather than the artworks themselves. Worth noting that we are talking about a Pokémon from a Spain-based region, whose most famous artist has been a pioneer in this art style, so I don't think it's a mere coincidence. --[[User:Benjathor2|Benjathor2]] ([[User talk:Benjathor2|talk]]) 11:38, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
