Topic:
COW #319: Pokemon Re-Design
Brief:
I have been putting off this topic for a little while, but I felt now's a better time than any to once and for all make this available to the creature designers of Creature of the Week! Behold Pokemon, the popular nintendo franchise filled with wondrous and fascinating pocket monsters! There are more than 700 pokemon that have been announced so far, 719 to be exact. As a result there will be plenty of creatures to choose from, but I want you to please keep in mind, there are a large amount of pokemon that would break some of the rules of CoW or would not be considered technically creatures (ex, Machamp, Bellsprout, Ditto, Magnemite; to name a few). I will not restrict you from picking one of these pokemon, but I would ask that you try to avoid picking one of these since others would be better suited for Creature of the Week. However if you do decide to re-design one of those "other" pokemon, do try your best to 'adjust' their design so that they can properly fit into the rules of COW (at least if you wanna make the poll).
One last thing that I require for participants in this round, this is going to be a first come first serve style round, so you cannot use a pokemon that someone else has already laid a claim to. Therefore before designing a final piece you must have called a 'claim' on your chosen pokemon here within the WIPS THREAD, otherwise you will not be included in the poll. So without further ado, you are required this round to re-design any of the 719 Pokemon from the popular video game franchise.
Round Requirements:
-you can choose any of the 719 pokemon, but please keep the rules in mind when designing your pokemon.
Here's a complete list of Pokemon to help you choose
-you MUST claim your chosen pokemon in the wips thread in order for it to be included in the poll

-Remember to make the design your own rather than just a realistic interpretation of your chosen pokemon
-I would also ask that you would provide a small thumbnail of the original artwork or sprite for the sake of comparison and the fact that it'll be easier to identify it as a pokemon since there are so many available now
