Concept

[soc_puppet]

A monster collecting game where all of the creatures you collect are somehow hidden and/or mimic-style creatures. Some of them are still mimic-style treasure creatures (pulling examples from Pokémon, this would be Voltorb, etc), but some you have to solve puzzles to reveal (Spiritomb), and some appear to literally be part of the scenery until you interact with them, either in general (Stunfisk, both original and Galarian) or in specific ways (watering Sudowoodo in Gold and Silver).

I just think it'd be a neat twist on the idea. (Possibly because, of the two dozen or so fakemon I've come up with, two have been mimic-style 'mon a la Voltorb, which is a bit disproportionate!)

Spiritomb and Stunfisk mention! This would be so cool and I love the idea of puzzles over the creatures just appearing.
