Hehe, Pokefusions have been the latest thing on Tumblr. I keep seeing them ALL OVER THE PLACE, but yeah, there are some really good drawings of them too. Poke-fusion dance, go! *shot*

Found this artist who has loads of very cute pokemon gijinkas!
They're all very nicely made, so I can't pick a favorite one ;;

Second, if you're only just now discovering this artist's work, well cool! But just so you know, I accredit this artist with single-handedly popularizing Pokémon gijinjka in the West some five or six years ago. For many fans, his was the first set of images they saw which sought to anthropomorphize the entire Pokédex, and it's someone we on UPN discovered back around 2007 or 2008. I can't seem to find the proof super duper easily, but I can show you this:
As you can probably tell, my favorite one that the artist did was the Ampharos one (which I've used as my centerpiece in that one collage). I just love the personality brimming forth from both of the characters in it. Which one is your favorite? You say you've had a hard time picking, but I see you managed to select at least one to be your own current avatar ... ;o

Oh wow, that's awesome. I found the artist's work by searching for Gligar gijinka, and boom! (Hi Abra :P)
As for a favorite, I don't have one, but I especially like the castform (water) and the shelgon. Ampharos's face as he's being hugged by the girl is definitely something I enjoy when I look through the album. And of course, the gligar.

I think the last time that artist was found spawned a wave of gijinka avatars too.
The only reason I didn't join in was because there's no Relicanth, thereby invalidating the entire collection. |

When I had my Abra avatar, no one else was doing gijinka avatars. A, I remember having to push for the gijinka thing a little bit back then. (People were pretty resistent to the idea of Pokemon anthropomorphized fanart at first, as I recall!) And B, I abhor and have always abhored the whole herd mentality "baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, we must all use the same sort of avatar as one another, baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~!" that half of all Internet communities seem to always suffer.

Ah, yeah, I remember that, though that was with a different artist. I've always far preferred the artwork of the one that's being discussed now, but I could never find a full collection.
On the topic of me and swampy's experiment, that dying was actually my fault- we were supposed to switch avys every week, and then my activity started... Waning. Also my computer of the time was utterly incapable of handling the source image, and swampy (bless his heart) eventually started separating the gijinkas for me and sending them to me. But, despite his best efforts, I still ended up dragging it down into oblivion. I think the farthest I got was Phione? (And then just happily sat there for a while because having a cute and non-sexualized avatar was just fine with me) |

For those wondering, it's the script for the Attract effect in Japanese, so it'd be roughly "Garchomp is in love with Charizard!"

Forgot all about that until just now. (I hadn't been on a computer when I first saw bbb's post.) Just loaded the comic thanks to Jeri's bump and ... yeah, like you say, bbb, I think you can figure out what's going on even without speaking the language. All the same ...
Spoiler: show Just the one thing I can't quite make out -- Garchomp's (what appears to be) 話ってんな on the bottom of Page 04, with "ってんな" being something I can honestly say I have never seen before now but, if I had to guess, is some crude amalgam of speech って and そんな (with the そ dropped). Even still, it doesn't make sense to me that Garchomp would be taking us all the way back to Charizard's 話 from Page 03 (when he asked Garchomp to calm down and listen to what he had to say). If we go with that, it'd be like, "Oh! So this is what you were trying to tell me ..." or something. Still, that's only a guess. Everything else, not so much.

If Serebii or 4chan did a "STUNFISK AVATAR EVERYONE GO" (here you can probably tell i don't know pretty much anything about 4chan) then it would be MUCH different because there's a lot stronger conformity pressure and groupthink. UPN is more like Halloween costumes you wear every day and can change at any time. Though I would find it hilarious if everyone had their avatar be their "spirit pokemon" doing what my avatar is doing. "DON'T FUCKLE WITH SHARPEDO" "DON'T FUCKLE WITH CLEFAIRY" "DON'T FUCKLE WITH RELICANTH"

tl;dr you can't compare Hallowe'en dress up with the girl who goes to school copying the latest styles of select celebrities.
