I don’t know why it took me this long to draw these guys with some pokemon companions! If it weren’t for pokemon, I’m pretty sure these characters wouldn’t even exist. Years and years ago Henry, Emily, and Karen were just the names of my sapphire, emerald, and leaf green files. (Yeah, I named her EMily because EMerald. I was so clever.) From there these guys went through a ton of changes and, well, evolved into the superhero kids they are today! They’ve been around for so long that I can’t really remember where a lot of the main ideas for their personalities and powers and such came from, but it can’t be a coincidence that Karen now has fire powers after her namesake game file started with charmander, right?
Anyway, happy 20th, Pokemon! You’ve certainly fueled my creativity for years, and I’m sure you’ll continue to for years to come!
