While looking around your site I thought to myself, “Why aren’t there any super deformed pics of Mrs. Nidorina??” So to change that I drew a cute little pic/comic type thing for you. I heard that Mrs.Nidorina loves to clean up messes; I imagine she’d both be thrilled and agitated to see a giant mess like this one. More thrilled though. :3

I remember when my mom used to make church suits for women. I can't remember too well what they looked like, but I know she'd have customers come over to be fitted every now and again. She later downsized to hats and jewelry, but she's re-expanding to other avenues. I'd insert a plug here but I'm pretty sure this site targets all but the correct audience for that.

Nevertheless I wanted to draw a suit on Nidorina, not the one she wears in the series (which is green for one), but I thought it'd be nice and in character. She's kind of exaggeratedly drawn, but then again what pictures of mine aren't?

So, it's that time again, and I've made a picture I like more than both Bun-Bun and Mrs. Nidorina v3. I decided to think bigger for this one, and since each picture of the Nidorina series is a kind of tribute, I made the background images of Nidorina historical, or just for fun. Each of the background images I drew new, nothing pulled from archieves, and you probably already know I can emulate my old drawing styles. At the top, you have all the clearly defined old styles from 1999 to about 2006-ish (early Aqua Bunny/Late Creative Worlds). You can see that the earliest was clearly a misinterpretation of Sugimori's Nidorina made to be cuter, and honestly the closest to it (if I knew how to draw better). I thought Nidorina had a kind of lump for a horn, but it's just the angle the official art was drawn in. Later my own style started kicking in and this Nidorina officially had a small horn. The bottom's just fun drawings, of course including Muriel, an OC heavily based off of Nidorina (and practically her personification). And in the middle is the centerpiece, Mrs. "Bun-Bun" herself in a cutesy Manga style. I love it.

My VERY first picture that I have made for Aqua Bunny. It is Mrs. Nidorina, I used the old ‘how to draw guide’ to create this drawing of her. Hope everyone enjoys it. :)

I know the backround looks blurry,but all I used to color was an airbrush XP.Anyway, it's Charlotte.... on the beach.

A romantic moment nobody could mess-up. Nidorino was too cheap to buy the tickets to the festival (the reason for fireworks) D: at least they saw the fireworks :D.

Just some sketches I decided to color the other day of Charlotte and Nido-san. They weren't drawn together originally so Charlotte isn't to scale.

Nidorina is a peppy and friendly young adult who, in the end, usually does the right thing. She tends to be playfully contrary, which may come off as annoying if you can't take a teasing. Nidorina seems to love music, and can often get lost in the rhythm. What's her favorite types of music, you ask? The type of music that tends to overpower her and get her body moving, such as house, trance, rave, and dance.

Editorial note: Nidorina's come a long way. You know, I dunno if I ever said this, but I'm actually rather glad there are fans of "Nido-san" (or AU for some reason) because honestly, if people didn't pay it much attention, I'd've still left it alone like I originally had (and unlike Poke Island I didn't have any attachment to it). Nidorina was more or less known before as combatant who actually opposed to fighting, and could miraculously cut hair, and played big sister. Generally. But these days I've developed her more or less away from that do-it-all angle (much like I did Charlotte) and essentially she's much more like a normal, but relatable young adult. Granted I haven't depicted this much yet in comics currently on site, but trust me, it's where she's headed. And I like to base characters off of real people, not stereotypes, because life has the most interesting people and stories already, and I like to capture that essence in my characters (moreso since the past couple of years).

We play the hits all night long, baby. I actually like this one better, despite the original having more work put into it. I was going for something a bit more graphic designy. And it's official. Pokemon belong in urban environments. Everything does. Cities rock so hard.

Aqua Bunny isn't just centered on Nidorina anymore. So why not introduce you to this cast of cute and happy Nidoran? These are all my Nidoran characters. Here's what's intresting, all but one are from the Poke Island Series, so I guess I haven't been as Nidoran friendly since then. Here's the creation date rundown:

In order of appearance: 1999 - Melody, Rondo (Poke Island); 1999-2000(?) - Nidoran (F), Martha, Gerald, Nidoran (M), Dot, Needles (Poke Tales); 2000-2001(?) - Diana, Nina*, Chaud* (Poke Legends); 2006 - Angelina (Carmela: ¡Alcance Las Estrellas!). *Chaud may have appeared first, too lazy to confirm.

And now, some really quick background info. Melody and Rondo are child siblings, but importantly Snow Nidoran, a species of Nidoran with a thicker, white coat living on Mt. Frosty. They lead a choir of other Snow Nidoran kids, and this choir is known as the Snow Children (so now, the fictional Love and Peace song title should make sense). Nidoran (female) kick started Poke Tales, really, and my love for Nidos. Martha and Gerald Faurnsworth are an older Nidoran couple who fell on hard times. They're also one of the few characters in the series with a surname. Nidoran inadvertantly got them back from rags to riches, but the Faurnsworths are very generous and pleasant to be around. Nidoran (male) is a really nice guy, and a bit of a thrill seeker. Dot is the Nidoran family's only child. She started off a bully, but just became talky.

Needles is the Nidorino family's first born. He's very shy, but likes sweets. Diana is the Nidorino family's second born. She's very sweet natured. She looks a lot like her mom in this picture, too. Nina is the Nidorino family's third born. She's fragile. Chaud is the child of Nidoking's family. Nidoqueen thought it'd be fun to have a baby just like her friends Nidoran and Nidorina. Let's just say the Nidoroyals weren't well prepared. Chaud's a little whiny. Angelina is Carmela's childhood friend. She, like Carmela, has a pretty snappy attitude, but she believes in family and keeping traditions, and has an optomistic personality hidden inside her tough exterior. Be sure to check the Character Bios for more info, even in the future.

Cartoonists, illustrators and animators my get a kick out of the top image. It was both really funny and absolutely horrifying to draw. I need to cleanse myself. I remember I saw on Yahoo's homepage one day a promo image for Shrek 4, and Shrek was giving the 'Tude look. I mean, come on! Is there anything they DON'T use this on?

Anyway, next to it is self redemption, but an important note in case anybody felt like doing Nido-san fan art(?). Nidorina is actually very girly in demeanor, despite not being one in personal tastes. I like to derive personalities from real life people. Everything else is everything else, but I know you're lovin' the extra rabbity Nidorino. Made just because I know how much everyone wants it. ;)

Of all your nido-characters, I've always had a biting urge to draw Charlotte. Maybe it's the character design, or maybe it's just the last couple of AU comics (which are awesome beyond further description). To spare some more unnecessary rambling, I was recently prompted to draw her when I realized that my own nido-character, Charlie, had a name that is strikingly similar to Lottie's. ... I... swear that wasn't intentional. For whatever reason I never caught on. ^^;

I ended up drawing both of 'em, but I'm not so pleased with how my own character turned out. In hindsight, that's probably because I'd put so much effort into making Charlotte look somewhat accurate that I didn't have the willpower to make my own nido look any good. XD

Okay this is not my best work but here is Charlotte with my character Jessica the pikachu. Kine got Jessica from the same pokenerd who gave him nidorina. Jessica can also know what Charlotte says.

Can you guess who this is a personification of? Actually, to be honest, she's an original character of mine (so, yay more art that most people don't know about). So wait, what's a non nido doing on this site? To answer that and the aforementioned question, she is a personification of "Nido-san", as if you probably didn't infer as much. However, Anita has some unique differences from the Pokemon she spawned from. For one, she's slightly younger, and isn't the do-it-all that "Nido-san" is. In fact, she's just a graphic design student (who wants to specialize in poster and ad design) instead of a hair stylist. Being human, she's supposed to be a lot more relatable and therefore, more real. Personality wise, though, they're pretty much the same (fun tomboy-ish yet girly sporty kinda quirky girls with a jerkish older sibling complex that enjoy "lame" stuff all the while find humor in everything but go to tears over nothing. Typical, really), and they're both Montana born gals.

There's two reasons I put this picture up, though. First of all, so that there's an "official" "Nido-san" personification on here. Although, really, what did you expect her to look like? And secondly, just to further prove that my personifications are much better than my gijinka. Then again, I can't really draw humans manga style anyway. The proportions of manga humans (mostly the face) just... throw me the heck off.

You're familiar with Muriel. She's the personification of Nidorina of Poke Tales. And, much like her Pokemon counterpart lives vaguely on an island in the Pacific, Muriel is just Polynesian. Which island specifically? And what ethinicities are the most prominent in her? I don't know, and it's surely not important. Like Anita, she's an original character who spun off from an existing one, so she could actually be useable in the real world. She differs from Nidorina in that Nidorina's only life goal was just to find love, happiness and have a family, and she only happened by chance to become a temporary actress. Muriel, on the other hand, has a dream of stardom, but having a family unfortunately ties her up. She's also a little less obsessed with her husband, and she isn't tone deaf. However, lots of other things are similar, they both are rather cheerful women who love to both cook and eat the food they make, love kids, and are not as down to earth as their spouse is. Muriel intentionally has a kind of 1920's charm, despite not really knowing what time period her story's based in. Why? Because women in the early 1900's were women and men (like me) were glad of it! =D

An interesting thing to note is that my original characters (so in other words, non licensed characters) work similiarly to the Tezuka Star System (I TOLD you I was gonna do it). So, while my characters have a sort of canon background, in another story that isn't theirs, they can play a totally different role. It's a way to introduce new characters and stories while keeping a few familiar faces, plus it's always fun to have the characters "act" a different part.
