The Literal Translation of Apocalypse is ‘an album’. Fortooate has made ‘a photoset that hopefully gets something across about it’. It’s got my and other voices on it. We are all in here together but none of us can hear each other.
ahh, the fennekin line... szo béautiful... so magnifique...
cuties! ears on Braixen there are a little ehhh but puberty is always awkward, i bet when it evolves–
quell le fucq?
okay we can fix this. kneepads on the dress are out, have you ever heard of such a thing, shorten the torso, make the hands pop magician-style, distribute the colors around... can't do much about the ear-hair at this point so i'll do the patented 'make it worse' fix...
there! Delphox gets a burning broom instead of... a stick... and the dress kneepads are a crotch decal now. shoulderpads from Braixen are back in, the tail is gone because it just looks glued on. repatterned the dress, chest piece looks a little more scholarly now, it's cute. now if game freak could give us a model that isn't a traffic cone we'll be in business
please you have to be happy at me. i hope you don’t think i’m a coward but my edits here are going to be pretty minimal and noncommittal because i like gyarados a lot already!
I don’t actually love losing all of those fins, but I do think Gyarados needs to hold onto a pair of limbs. I know, I know, Magikarp can get fucked, but we can keep this one aspect. People will never shut the fuck up about Gyarados being a Flying-type that can’t fly, obviously, but maybe they’ll quiet down a little if it can flap a little bit. Unfortunately adding those but keeping all the others is a little busy (and strains credibility as far as what could fit in a GBC sprite!) so they Had 2 Go. Except for the crown one. That can stay.
I also flipped the tailfin ninety degrees because fish tails go up-and-down. >:(

Meganium?
Oooooooooof, Meganium. Meganium, meganium, Meganium. You poor girl.
We love Meganium! She has a big pink flower! But there’s an elephant in the room. Or, more specific, a sultry litekll biinch named Bayleef. Bayleef looks SO cool, Ash had one in the ANIME, and it looks uncommonly complete for a second-stage starter pokémon. All of this leaves poor Meganium out in the cold, wilted and ready to just die on your windowsill. But we can fix her up! We can diverge her a little more from Bayleef, while also making her more in-line with her evolution line’s vibe and look a little more mature to boot!
She’s a dandelion bouquet! This has a few advantages; Chikorita has a necklace of seeds, Bayleef has a necklace of dank rolled weed leafs, so why should Meg have one big flower? Instead, she has a profusion of the dandelions, the other weed. I considered dropping the antennae (Bayleef’s big leaf is so cool) but I like how out-of-left-field they are. So we highlight them with the Grass-type spackle called ‘leaves’. She also gets a longer neck and tail to diverge from her prevos a bit more, while her nails get fused to match her prevos instead.
(I went with dandelions here because A] I like em and B] they’re more in the milieu of plants that the the rest of the line is playing with.)
(I noticed while sourcing art for this that the games are really inconsistent with how dark the green is for Meganium. This color works but in other art I would darken it significantly, again to make the progression of the line more stark.)
(Notably, here Meganium has lost all connections to, well, geraniums. There are less sensical names in the canon, but as a new alternative: Megandedon?)
I really like Voltorb, although it’s hard to talk about without also talking about Electrode. So I will.
The temptation is to turn the line into a poké ball, Great Ball, and Ultra Ball three-stage line, but those balls were pretty undifferentiated for a long time. Plus, there’s something so classical about a pokémon flipping over and getting a new emotion and calling that an evolution!
My one change that I would like to make is that the boys are too big. I’m supposed to think they’re abandoned poké balls, but Voltorb is at like knee-height and Electrode is the size of an elementary schooler.
So they’re small now. (Special guest appearance: auto-scaled Pikachu. Say hi!) Also note the fun little head divot on Gen One Electrode’s head! I demand more arbitrary head divots.
noivern is pretty good! it’s a touch too ‘ooh i’m a perfect cool dragon’ but <3
I just rearranged the pallet splashes a little, dropped the weird nothing beige* for more purple, and made the front claw number match the back claw number. Also added a fur loincloth to match Noibat’s adorable pantaloons.

window facing / an ill-kept front yard / plums on the tree / heavy with nectar
prayers to summon / the destroying angel
moon stuttering in the sky like / film / stuck in a projector
& you / You...
Twin prop airplanes, passing loudly overhead.
Road to the airport– two lanes clear–
Half the whole town gone, for the summer,
Terrible silence
Coming down here
And you.
You...
There is no deadline
There is no schedule
There is no plan
we can
fall back on
The-road-this-far-can't-be, retraced
There is no punchline... anybody can tack on
There are, loose ends, by-the-score
What did I, come, down, here, for?
You.
You...
