I just figured it’s been long enough to let y’all see the whole thing. I’m not giving up on finishing it, but I am proud of the composition!
Here’s the reasons I have for each Pokémon:
Luxray: I figured Shinx might’ve been his first partner. Maybe his parents had Electric and Steel types to help with inventing things, so Shinx was already available? Idk.
Golurk: It’s a protector ghost, so it fits pretty well with Danny’s fanon concept of having a protective Obsession.
Mimikyu: This one I just liked, but also the aspect of disguise fits pretty neatly.
Chimecho: Ghostly Wail, Chimecho’s Pokédex says it can get really loud.
Minior: Space!
Alolan Vulpix: Ice Core, but I didn’t want Froslass because I think his parents wouldn’t want Ice types like Snorunt around. He got this lil gal while on a trip to Alola! Maybe his parents were brought on to help with the UB situation?
Here’s a preview of a thing I’m working on! I just love this little interaction where Alolan Vulpix is curious about Minior (who is way more angular than the official art, I know), and Luxray is endeared by it.
And yes, tracing was utilized for Vulpix and Luxray, though I edited the arts they were originally from so their heads were facing the way I wanted.
Here’s the other Pokémon in the piece: Golurk, Mimikyu, and Chimecho. I wonder who their Trainer is~? :3c
A recent question from my inbox mentioned Minior, which got me interested in drawing one. I couldn’t decide which colour to use, so I used all of them to create a lovely Minior rainbow! I’ll be interested to hear your faves!
I tried to include as many flags as possible in this image, but I can make almost any pride flag you can think of. (I accidentally included one flag twice! Can you find it?)
[Image description: a photo of many items on top of a green beret with the word “shop” in blue and “open!” In orange. The items include 7 pins, 6 stickers, and 7 bottle charms. The stickers, bottle charms and 3 of the pins are themed with various pride flag colors. The sticker designs include three Pokemon and three lions. The pride flag pins have Pokemon on them as well. The remaining four pins are of forest animals: two bears, a fox, and a deer.]
