Description
My entry for Thursday Prompt: Pocket Power . This one nearly killed me.So, this entry changed a lot while I made it. Originally, it was supposed to be myself as a trainer, then as a gym leader, then champion...and then it turned into a sort of performance. It could easily be all of that and I'm just a dramatic freak of a champion in this.
The Pokemon I chose were my favorites of each generation. Interestingly, each Pokemon I chose has symbolism that fits with me:
1) Gengar is by far my favorite Pokemon. I feel he's the cutest Pokemon ever. You can disagree all you like, but he's precious. And considering how backwards I am, it fits. Gengar is Clefairy's shadow and Clefairy was supposed to be the mascot.
2) Sneasel is adorable and I just love it. It's a sneaky little butt and that really is me. XD
3) Sableye is one of those Pokemon that is just fun and fascinating but also creepy. That fits me.
4) Darkrai is the well-meaning but very misunderstood angsty bean. I have had so many issues trying to fit in and I have been and can be angsty at times.
5) Chandelure is like a light in the dark. I've done a lot of growing over the years, so that totally works.
6) Aegislash is a valiant warrior and I am definitely someone who tends to fight for others. I'm stronger when I fight for others than for myself and I always seek justice, so this good boy is definitely a good representation. I changed his colors and his shield to give him a unique vibe. This is my valiant knight! Everyone loves to feel unique.
7) Mimikyu is one of those precious sweethearts that I just want to snuggle and assure that everything is okay. Their backstory is so sad - they want love and so they dress up like Pikachu. I would literally rip off that thing and tell them "You're perfect as you are!" So, I illustrated the precious babu hugging with little hearts (including it's eyes).
8) Eternatus...did you miss him? He's basically the background and everyone else is lounging on him. I like to think he's also misunderstood and with his family here lounging on him, he is a happier bean. We're all misunderstood so we can accept each other. Eternatus may not be ghost or dark type, but he shares his poison type with Gengar.
I used refs for each and the only one I copied most of was for Gengar . You should see the resemblance. The Aegislash I decided to wing it, the Darkrai's arms and eye are the only things that really changed, I used a gif to help me get the Sableye right, and the Mimikyu was easy enough. And yes, her Pokeballs are blue because blue is my favorite color - she decorated them.
I spent so long on this. I had to figure out how to draw the trainer and the Pokemon. I hope you like.
