MUCH larger version here.

Created for a Tumblr marathon known as POKEDDEXY. The point was to draw each of your favorite Pokemon of each type, and then some as you'll see down the line. I didn't actually finish it until January, 2014, due to a late start, other obligations, and the fact that a portion of the art actually has some thought in it rather than really fast doodles. Well, of course I was gonna want to use them later, might as well make them at least half-presentable. This picture was created in the style of Pop'n Music/Rhythmic Pop'n.

Patterns from webtreats ETC. Also, inspired by an official piece of PNM promo art, so there's some similarities.

I'm still taken aback by the fact that there's Pokemon beyond Generation III in this picture. Gosh, who'da thunk it? There's also a bit of cosplay for those of you who also revel in obscure Japanese fun n' games, and just for kicks, two extras decided to... Pop'n... for a cameo (who won't be pictured otherwise). :D Not ashamed of that, nope.

It's pretty funny that long after I grew out of the Kirlia-Mawile shtick from the early Creative Worlds era that my favorite Psychic and Steel types would still be Kirlia and Mawile. Admittedly, they're hard to top in terms of cuteness and design accessibility and familiarity (Kirlia is simpler than Gardevoir, but is more identifiable as humanlike than Ralts). I'm not even sure Mawile as a species have many rivals in the world of cute Steel types. I guess that's why adding Fairy as a secondary type just made sense, because it was sort of the outlier

The less said about Mona, the better. As I've written before, Mona isn't a Pokemon, she's a doggone experience. She'll fill your life with excitement, but that's usually followed by regret and/or remorse... and possibly a lot of apologizing.

Mona is from Chibi's Corner.

A sort of spiritual successor of last year's Valentine's Cards. However, the trick this time was to not make up phrases based on a few characters, but to find and use legitimate phrases you can find on REAL CANDY, and make sure a character fits it, so it's slightly less gimmicky. And again, all these phrases can be found on real conversational hearts, even if the phrase is now discontinued or they didn't come from the Brach's/NECCO brand (some of them are from Bittersweets Conversational Hearts, for example).

I decided to dust off the old cast from Chibi's Corner (here's a refresher). There are characters I didn't include, sure, but that's irrelevant. I did, however, make sure to leave names this time.

Man that's a lot of tags
