Hey everyone, I decided to enter into Clip Studio Paint’s TIP of the Month competition since they had a Drawing Dragons category! I’d really appreciate if you checked it out and dropped a like if it helped you!

Happy Chuesday!  Looks like this Pikachu has plenty of leftover Halloween candy and wants to share - which one would you take?

Wow, it’s June already - and it’s also the first official Pride Month that I’ve been out to folks online as both non-binary and bisexual!!  Thank you all for your kindness and support <3 Anyway, I don’t know if I ever posted them here, but I made some Galarian Rapidash pins and included some Pride based designs this year!  If anyone’s interested in potentially supporting a queer, disabled small-time creator instead of a giant corporation for Pride merch this year, I’d love it if you’d take a look at these pins!  I’m putting them on sale for 25% off this Pride Month to celebrate, too! Even if you can’t purchase right now, reblobs and likes are super helpful to me <3 Link here! https://www.etsy.com/listing/954619150/galarian-rapidash-pride-pins

Gyarados used Dive!   🌊 A piece I did inspired by my dear friend Mocha’s Hoenn Fic, which features many absolutely lovely Dive scenes!

Just binged read We rise and fall, and all I have to say is- ilysm and you are one of the best writers I've ever read from. I've always loved Kabu but no one has written anything for him as good as you. You are a blessing to the world and I hope you have a wonderful day. I literally laid here for 2 hours reading and getting excited for the next chapters. You have delivered, you are the hero we don't deserve but we need 🙏🏼🙏🏼

OH MY GOSH?????  THIS IS SO SO KIND....what did I do to deserve such praise omg T_T  To know that my little fic can bring such joy to you...I’m honestly so happy and heartwarmed ;-;  I know my current updates have been incredibly slow, but I hope that you continue to enjoy them when they come out!  Thank you again for going out of your way to send some sweet words my way <3

I just wanna say, I really really appreciate your writing! everything is so beautifully done and all the little details you thread into them? incredible. (not saying I’m fawning over the kabu fic on AO3 butttt.....) nothing soothes a hard work day like your work, let me tell you. :)) hope you are doing well and making it through these rough times! drink lots of water, bundle up, and stay safe out there! love you - nonnie

AAHHHHH OH MY GOODNESS......thank you so so much T_T  You’re so incredibly kind to say all of that, I don’t even know how to thank you enough!  I’m honestly so so happy to hear that you’re able to get comfort from my fic and it warms my heart to know that you enjoy all the little details I sneak in, too ;-;  I hope you’re taking good care of yourself too Nonnie!!  Thank you again for going out of your way to leave some kind words for me <3 <3

I’ve been with this series since Red and Blue, and I can’t believe that all these years later, I’m still as in love with Pokemon as ever.

Happy 25th anniversary, Pokemon, and thanks for helping me see the world with wonder and awe - and for helping me make so many friends along the way <3

Some punny Gen 8 Pokemon Valentine’s cards for everybody <33

Reason 187 I love Kabu: that flame eye thing he does when he’s being all intense

“Kana, my dear - I do believe our favourite clients have arrived…" 

For @apharine - thank you for being such an amazing and supportive friend to me. I wanted to draw our OCs Kana & Siane as a lovely pair of oiran. Their favourite & exclusive clients would be Kabu & Nanu, of course~!

Please do not crop | repost | reupload, thank you.
