(Ha-Ch-OO-rU ~ Le'-Ve)
This is my Hatchie, 'Sesame'. Do NOT steal his design, as this is still a form of art theft whether you use it on CS or not.
First of all, this is a secondary place where you can adopt a Hatchie. HERE is where you can go to get your Adult Hatchie bred, customized with 'potions', get Acid Pebbles and evolve your Hatchies to transfer them from looking like this ^, to those in my signature.
Colour Coding
a red dot means this Hatchie is a competiton prize. Green means the best form with the most time spent on it wins. No dot means the design is either taken or not for adoption just yet.
Introductions.
Hai there. I am Universal PhoneBooth but you can call me Boothy. I do not have a tablet, but because of my high achievement in art, I previously decided to start drawing oekakis and user made adopts. Because they weren't getting much attention, i decided to plan this species for days and voila! The Hachūrui Løve was born. So, I suppose you're wondering what's up with their name. Well, i wanted something foreign and meaningful. After a fair bit of Googling, I settled on 'Hachūrui', (Ha-Choo-Roo) meaning 'Reptilian' in Japanese. I chose Japanese out of all the languages I could have because of the eyes of the Hatchies. They look kinda Manga don't you think? Oh, and the 'Løve', (Le'-ve) is a Danish word meaning 'Lion.' I chose Danish because I love the symbols like the line through the 'o', and not to mention I also LOOOVE Danish pastries.

The story behind the Hatchies
Originally, the Hatchies were mutated Mountain Lions, illegally experimented on by Scientists situated in Indonesia. They were kept in large cells, pumped full of excess oxygen from the high altitude and had their DNA mixed with that of African Lions, native Indonesian birds and large reptiles. They got bigger, and eventually overpowered the humans with their veins pumping with hormones and steroids. After the original few that escaped from the Cells, fled to the mountains of Indonesia, favoring extreme environments such as volcanoes and snow capped mountain ranges. Breeding led to ranging colour variants and in the 21st century they can be classed as their own species. Some have been domesticated while others still roam around in prides or solitary, predominately in the Kawah Ijen Volcano and Sulphur Lake surrounding it. Now, only people who study reptilineology (the study of reptile feline hybrids) know how to approach them.
Dwelling
The Kawah Ijen Volcano is the stunningly preserved discards of a human residence. It's the remains of the site of a labor intensive sulfur mining operation where miners collected and carried huge loads of pure sulfur up from the crater floor along a steep, rocky path amid clouds of sulfur dioxide gas, all for the equivalent of about ten dollars a day.
It is also home to the largest lake of sulfuric acid in the world. the most dangerous but safest way of approaching Hachūrui Løve nesting grounds is via a small boat over the Sulphur lakes. The ph of the lake water is 0.5, similar to the strength of car battery acid.

(right) As soon as this aluminum can was put into the acid, it started to sizzle and bubble. After about 20 minutes, the metal had been eaten away to the point where it was as thin as tissue.

(right) It may be pretty, but this is one of the harshest work environments in the world. The sulfur previously mined here is mostly used in the processing of sugar on Java.
