cherishyork: Fan Art Friday: Pokemon by Satoshi Tajari & Nintendo

Happy Fan Art Friday everyone! I hope you've had a brilliant week. Today's drawings will be about some new and old drawings of the anime and game Pokemon. I'm sure a lot of you are aware of how much it has expanded since it has first began back in the mid-90's. Both the anime and game are really good.

I came across the anime first back in 1999. It was shown on SM:TV Live and the plot always excited me. What appealed to me was not only the art but the stories that were revealed in every episode. I remember the arrival of Ash Kechum and Pikachu as well as the arrival of his competitor who was always a step ahead of him Gary.

This was the second anime that I spotted after the Tenchi Muyo/Universe series. Since I already enjoyed the Tenchi series and Pokemon had similar features as in look. I thought that it would be wonderful to watch. Since the programme was broadcasted in the UK, I watched the English dub. I really loved the voice actors and actresses who played the main characters. They made the series very fun, exciting and emotional.

Due to the fact that I really enjoy the series I began buying some of the merchandise and also drew some of the Pokemon. Also some of the characters. The drawings that I drew went on to the extent that I included it in most of my work in school. I even made a fan fiction of some of the characters and included a new character. I always took reference to the person who created the series. However I did not play the game until the early 2000's. The game was very appealing.

The first drawing that you see below is the a colour drawing of Pikachu that I created a couple of weeks back. It looks pretty good.:

The following drawings are some of the Pokemon that I drew when I was 12. Most of its references were from a 2000 year calendar that I had. I used it to remember all (back then) 150 Pokemon. This was a huge success for me:
