Daily Dex - Pelipper, Sprigatito, and Wynaut

In which I challenge myself to draw a pokemon every day until I stop

Weird week. The skies have been smoke-filled and air-quality alerted to shit, ICE is killing civilians (again), my country is / is not / is again / wait no / yes actually at war with Iran, 97 Democrats voted with Republicans to keep supporting Israel's genocide, and AI psychosis despite climate collapse continues unabated.

I think at this point I draw pokemon for my blood pressure. Please enjoy.

Drawing of pokemon 279; a large pelican

I love pelicans. Most birds are objectively cool but something about pelicans and how they will snake-like try to swallow something twice their size in their already stupidly-large mouth fucking rules, so Pokemon showing up and saying "hey so what if like...the mouth was like....BIGGER" is EXACTLY the kind of stoner thought I want from the pokemon company. More this please.

Also on the "just a bird" scale? Def just a bird.

Drawing of pokemon 906; a cat that's mostly green

Dude I don't know what it is but I'm so shit at drawing cats lmao I live with so many of them but for some reason drawing them always feels wrong. Here's the grass cat.

Drawing of pokemon 360; a small blue blob-like creature with floppy ears smiling

Not nearly as cool as Wobbuffet but like, c'mon. Let's face it. Nothing is.

I often wonder what goes into the conversations that lead to adding a later-generation earlier evolution of a pokemon, especially for something as iconic as Wobbuffet. Like, how did Pichu end up happening?

Alas. The mysteries of the world shall continue.
