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.

Like Vulpix and Nidorina, Horsea has had the title of favorite water type for years. I just don't draw them often. These two aren't really main characters, but are a good example of what Poke Tales was known for, which is to provide a story for all Pokemon, even if this placed them into One-Off status. The Horseas show up more than once, but they didn't do anything you haven't seen Nidorina do with her children, just under the sea and a with a lot more danger.

Mama and Baby Horsea are from Poke Tales.

Figuring everyone would be as tired of the same old Nidos as I was for drawing them this holiday, I decided to do a deeper pull and used Mama and Baby Horsea instead. Went for the old Pokemon Blue Sugimori art style, here, looks pretty nice, ngl.
