Just a lil guy.

Gotta catch ’em all, man.
I’ve wanted to draw some proper art of Zeraora since its debut, but it seems like the specifics of its design just really clash with my style and preferred media. idk how I’d handle those stupid whiskers, but otherwise, the design basics are really similar to Zoroark, but canine heads are still easier to work with than feline ones for me even though I like cats better than dogs, lol.
Pokemonathon 2022: 158-160
Didn’t turn out as I hoped, but happy to move past the starters and get onto the other stuff.
I’ve always been annoyed at how the yellow patch of stomach/chest scales moves around in the evos though. Of the starters, I think the Chikorita line turned out the best… probably because it was the one I cared the least about, haha.
Impressed with how well the point has kept on this brown Tombow Fudenosuke.
Gen 9 starter sketches… Fuecoco is the best one but it is hardest to draw. 😔 Sprigatito still feels like a lesser version of Leafeon to me, and Quaxly is what Ducklett should’ve been.
Pokemonathon sketches… having a hard time with Feraligatr line because they’re my favourites and I want them to be cool…
Was having trouble with the red ink so this came out grungy, but oh well.
Pokemonathon 2022: 155-157
Badger-type bodies are really hard to get right, especially when they’re covered in fire… sort of wanted to have both Cyndaquil and Quilava not-on-fire, but it felt like too much of a cop out, haha.
I bet you expected my fav of the Gen 9 starters to be the cat, but you underestimated how much I love baby crocs.
Also, Fuecoco reminds me of the Bubble Bobble blobs.
(Also, I’m pretty disappointed Sprigatito doesn’t have a plant on its head.)
Pokemonathon 2022: 152-154
I don’t think I’ve ever actually drawn anything from the Chikorita family before… Chikorita is a shapeless blob that turns into a dinosaur…
Probably gonna group evolution lines together like I did for my original Pokemonathon run, but I’m not really gonna hold myself to anything tbh.
I reviewed the Denik sketchbook a while back. The tl;dr was that it has some of the best paper I’ve seen in a sketchbook since the Punctuate (RIP). I bought a bunch when they were on sale but then decided to go through the rest of my stash of Punctuate sketchbooks to tear off the bandaid of them being discontinued.

Hisuian Zoroark scribbles/studies for the previous… Still want to draw something cooler with this design. It’s not clear that those red things all over its body aren’t eyes.
Hisuian Zoroark
I know vengefulness is among kitsune stereotypes, but it’s kind of a shame that Ninetales’s purported vengefulness was never highlighted much while Zoroark gets an entire alt form dedicated to the idea? Though I guess resentment isn’t quite the same as vengefulness. 🤔
Anyway, I really like Hisuian Zoroark’s design and don’t feel like I did it justice here, but it was nice to play around with the grey Tombow Fudenosuke for inking.
Bunch of Hisuian Arcanine scribbles from after the official design got confirmed… honestly, I think everyone’s guesses/hopes were much more interesting. Want to do a new scroll with this design, but am having a hard time making it work for me.
Sneasler is a super uninspired name… Also, it really bothers me when bipedal Pokemon end up with no thumbs in official art. Please give them thumbs.
Man, the 3D models look so boring. Hisuian Sneasel could be cooler.
Drawings to test out the Newpen Ginza Pro brush pens.
Review for the Newpen Ginza Pro brush pens coming Monday.
Shiny New Years Hoothoot was really cute. ‘v’ Blick Studio Brush markers are all right.
Hat Wurmple is the best hat mon in the game, don’t @ me.
My thrown-together Master League Classic team full of boring meta picks. :V I don’t think I’ve ever drawn Giratina before… it’s kind of annoying lol.
GL electric team
Have been messing around with all-electric UL and ML teams for a while, but it’s been harder to pin down a GL team because there’s more options. This one’s been doing well in the Holiday Cup though!
Every time I click on a lil white dude in Pokemon Go and it’s Castform instead of Vanillite, I am sad. 😔
Ghosty sketches.
My thrown-together Little Jungle Cup team was pretty okay. Leading with Pikachu was hilarious because so many people reflex-swapped to Gible (and Deino?) only to get unceremoniously destroyed. ;D Charm’s animation is so obvious, ya’ll, come on. ;)))
Been having a good time doodling event images for local bike party people. 🥳
Where is the fluffy unicorn Arcanine, cowards. I am expecting basically Galarian Rapidash, but Arcanine.
A jolt and a woop.
When the pen is almost out of ink but not quite.
