Emaciated Garbodor — Description
"Ever since the city implemented its waste disposal and recycling programs, the amount of trash and litter has dropped dramatically. All our hard work to make our city more efficient and environmentally friendly has paid off. Even the landfill seems to have become cleaner! Unfortunately, not all of the city's 'residents' are happy with such a change. The local population of Garbodors seem to be starving, as they have lost a major source of food. Everyone kind of assumed they would just move to another dump, but it seems like they do not wish to abandon their territory. At first people offered the idea of relocating them in hopes of helping these suffering creatures, but now people are pondering this same action for completely different reasons. Turns out they get irritable when they are hungry, and in our city, they always are. With no trash to eat, they have begun eyeing a different food source, our electronics. They smash every piece of machinery they see, gobbling up every fragment and piece. The mass they were losing is now being replaced by their new meals, and that makes things even worse. Bad enough you got one of these trash monsters ripping apart your air conditioner, but now you can't chase them off without the chance of getting fried in the process..."

Not too much of a fanart person, but this is a scenario I have played around in my head for some time, so I figured I ought to put it to paper. Ever since I first saw Garbodor's design, I was always drawn to the metal piping that made up its limbs. I quickly imagined these pipes made up its skeleton, and I always thought it would be a fun idea to have a Garbodor lose all its junky mass to reveal a metal skeleton monster underneath it all. That is what I was playing around with here, having a skinny version of Garbodor that gives it a more skeletal look, complete with wires for veins. Could serve as a poison/electric type now.
