Almost a year ago, I started this mini drawing series, where I drew the eight well-known human main characters from Super Mario in outfits of the player trainers from all Pokémon regions, in (almost) their official 2D art style, by Shigeru Miyamoto. It's actually hard to capture the full essence of the 2D art style, so I could only get as close as I can. But I think I did okay.
The inspiration behind this series was the stickers from Mario Party Superstars, and since I had been drawing so much Pokémon and missed drawing some Mario, yeah this was the result.
Three months of work, and I did all of this before on computer mouse so it's no easy task. Although after I did Yoshi, I closed off this series and moved on to making more Commissions and finishing my own projects. Despite that, these still get the attention of many in DeviantArt, not so much on Twitter anymore cuz these are literally my first art entries in that site.
I chose a Pokémon from the region assigned to each character:
Mario - I chose Kanto for him, as well as Pikachu because the first Generation is the mascot region of Pokemon, reflecting Mario being the mascot of Super Mario ofc.
Luigi - Johto is actually a region beloved by a lot of people, and Luigi is almost the same, sometimes even more preferred than their counterparts. Although Chikorita's there cuz... green.
Peach - My origin region Hoenn. I chose Skitty for her cuz pink and cute, and perfect for a princess like her.
Daisy - Ironic for a Princess living in a hot biome to be assigned in the coldest region, but at least she has a shiny fellow warm-biome friend Luxio.
Wario - Unova, like Wario and Warioland series, two things that only get the love they deserve way later. Picked Tepig for him, although there are other Unovan Pokémon that'd fit along.
Waluigi - The least loved region, paired with the unloved Luigi Clone. Inkay is due to its evolution method, which also alludes to Waluigi's emblem being an inverted L.
Rosalina - Frankly it's due to the Minior why I assigned her to Alola.
Pauline - Same thing with Grookey that's why she's assigned to Galar.
Yoshi - Someone begged and guilt-tripped me nonstop from the comments in DA, that's why this thing happened. 😑 This too is why I had to strictly implement the "No Free Art Requests!" rule.
Will the series continue? Apparently it did because of this commission. But again, I don't intend on voluntarily continuing this series. So if your character didn't came out, you can always commission me :) ...

And their wildly different rendering styles every time- Listen I’m not here to be consistent, I’m here to make the worlds hottest nonbinary character designs
Shiny Minior found literally 3 minutes into a Rock type encounter sandwhich! Scizor refusing to fight shinies has been such a blessing for me in my latest hunts good lord. This was extremely lucky!!
And? They’re marked!
Master Balled that homie so they wouldn’t explode.
I know the dex states that the color of its core changes depending on what the composition of the dust is that it eats, but consider: meteors/meteorites also come in varied colors on the outer shell. SO!
Hello trainers! Has it been a busy year for you? It certainly has for me. There’s been so much shiny research going on that I barely have time to document it all! I thought you might appreciate an update though, so here’s a quick rundown of my most recent shiny wins! Above you’ll see shiny Ampharos, caught in an outbreak!
A shiny Vulpix caught in an outbreak on the side of a cliff!
A shiny Furret hastily caught in an outbreak in Kitakami!
A shiny Stantler caught entirely by accident while looking for the shiny Furret!
A shiny Annihilape, caught by influencing the amount of ghost type spawns in an area within Kitakami with a sandwich!
One of many shiny Litwicks caught during the outbreak event!
One of very many shiny Milcery caught during the outbreak event!
A shiny Minior - a grail shiny for me since my days in Alola - caught in Blueberry Academy in Unova!
A shiny Cetoddle, caught on the side of a mountain in Paldea during an outbreak!
A shiny Toucannon, caught in the coastal area in Blueberry Academy!
There are even more shiny stories to be told, and I do have some tips coming up on how to catch rare Pokemon within Blueberry Academy’s bio dome. Until then, stay shiny ✨!
the FINAL shiny for my Alolan Shiny Trial Quest is done!
Meet Starbit, named by me for once! And now time to reveal the naming theme i teased at the start of this 8 months ago or whenever i started! Every single name was decided by a friend, except this last one. I wanna thank everyone who supported me during this, and all the people who started their own after i started mine, like @fumoshino and anyone else who i have been told has wanted to do something similar (on tumblr in the last little bit at least, i’m not vain enough to assume anyone was actually inspired by me, as these have been done for years).
This was my Elite Four hunt. I have gotten a few extra shinies that i haven’t posted, since i wanted this to be the final one, so we will just say that they were extra.
Overall, thank you for the support in this entire trial quest! I want to do this again with another game in the future, so we’ll see what the future holds~ Thanks and seeya later!
