Alternate Universe: We Still Love You, Nidorino ~ Pages 21 - 29

On the first (2006) iteration of the Aqua Bunny website, this page was marked as the start of a new segment. You should be able to tell because it no longer focuses on forums (for the most part), and Nidorino becomes more of a character and less of a mouthpiece (until it relates to the internet again). His whole personality just kinda changes.

That said, this portion still has more "forum experience" comics that are hard to follow (even for me, and I wrote them... so long ago that the context is starting to fade), so you can skip ahead to pages 30 and on if you don't feel like being confused. Otherwise...

You caught 'em, Kine. Now you have to live with them. This is the end, folks. This collection includes the rest of the Nidorina stories, and Nidoqueen's stories as well, and as usual, new stories can be found at the end. Let's give it up for Alternate Universe one more time in what may be the best collection to date.

Alternate Universe: She's One of a Kind, Kine ~ Pages 66 - 77

This is another comic you can easily compare to the original.

However, it had to be reworked in a way, because even though the fundamental reasons for drawing are still the same for me (mood dependent, the most interesting and accurate expression succeeding being on model, etc), art evolution and character development changes things that are no longer relevant. For example, Nidorina in 2001 followed in the footsteps of Mrs. Nidorina in being cuter than average, and the old answer was good enough. Today, Nidorina is supposed to reflect a specific personality. It's already stated in universe that Nidorina is attractively cute, so Kirby's old retort wouldn't fly either.

Alternate Universe: She's One of a Kind, Kine ~ Pages 78 - 89

I think it's funny how I time these stories unintentionally. This one's was uploaded 6 days before Valentine's Day in 2014, and it's all about love and friendships. In all seriousness, the ACTUAL reason I included this story (even though I didn't need to, much like the pool party one) was because I felt I should at least include a Chikorita story before I finally quit the AU collections. Plus, it shows the much needed bonding between Chikorita and Nidorina, who prior to this event were on OK terms at the best of times. This story is also necessary characterization for Nidorina, in that it presents her in the role that she's plays the best...

Glasses Make Everything Smarter

Except Nidorino's (center left) aren't real. But he sure wears them for this reason. I've established from "credible sources" that not only do glasses make you cuter, but anyone who wears them is absolutely brilliant.

Valentine's Day 2011 - Practical Cards

Valentine's cards that are actually meant to be useful. This set includes characters Sentret, Charlotte, Nidorino (AU) and Wobbuffet. The pic's pretty big, just in case for some reason someone actually wants to print these out on cardstock. I am not responsible for any possible outcomes.
