The last holiday special... this matches with my usual inconsistency tbh Too many stories not enough time~
I was on the fence about reblogging the holiday special but eh, I enjoyed making it
*The “a lot more often” was a hope for the future that did not happen*
This is why he’s a favorite
and why Plesola is also my favorite
Figured I could upload some sketches and scraps in between pages as they were really fun to do.
These were some pages I did to develop the style of the comic. Originally, all the characters were regular pretty anime peeps
Thinking I might as well reblog the extra bits too~ Professor Cole Mangal and the Champion, Weis Mangal, were originally based on Ingo and Emmet a loooooooong time ago but they changed drastically since then
Mangal is another word describing a mangrove forest/ swamp... its also a barbecue but I didnt realize that until just now Millionfish’s comics were the inspiration for this style
My favorite talkative overexplanation character- very hard to draw since he has so many perspectives he cant be drawn in. Or at least I havent figured them out yet
It was always fun to think of Pokemon more like naturally occurring digital interface life forms, the earlier games leaned into this idea a lot, or maybe they didn't and it was their silence that promoted the idea~
Introducing a character in a different color palette than everyone else in the room, is still very jarring- maybe less so if the entire panel was in that new color scheme instead of just them
they also have power puff girl eyes
