Daily Dex - Bronzor, Grotle, Uxie, Solrock, Carbink, Remoraid, Cascoon, Corphish, and Skitty
In which I challenge myself to draw a pokemon every day until I stop
We got a doozy today. I'm still recovering from long covid and I've also been dealing with a huge work project that involved some weekend work and long nights and I'm happy to say that not only is that done (and I'm taking a 5 day weekend around memorial day) but also I found my 10 minutes per day to draw some fucking pocket monsters.
Here's the photo and blog haul as catch-up!

Something about this guy gives me clown energy. I don't know what it is, but there's a circus-like aesthetic to the face that I just don't like it. I've never had a 'fear of clowns' in the same way a lot of people who watched IT too young did, but I've always had an aesthetic aversion to the clown or stereotypical circus visual.

Hell yea, love a tortoise carrying the world on its back, even if "the world" is just some bushes.

I didn't look it up but like, is Uxie an alien? Uxie feels like an alien.

Lot going on here. It's the sun, but it's also a star, but it's also a rock, but it also has a face.

Carbink is so weird. It feels like it should be edible. Like, in the same realm as vanilite or the other ice cream pokemon but I can't put my finger on why? It's clearly a rock. Like, it'd hurt your teeth.

A while back I saw this video and it broke my brain in terms of being able to hear the word 'FISH' and not think "You know what that means!"
Enjoy I guess lmfao

This is just like, a sea urchin, right?

Last night I was thinking about Godzilla VS Ebirah again (as I often am) so I intentionally picked the large crustacean for the daily dex. Easy choice.

One of the more fun parts about this project is how prevalent the "I don't go here" is - I'm regularly rolling random numbers and saying "what the fuck is this thing" because I've played to completion so few overall entries in the franchise, but in particular "here's a pokemon I've never heard of....AND IT'S A CAT"?? Beautiful. Tears of joy. Violins swell.
Look at this weird thing!!! I wanna see it catloaf.
