I am a geezer standing in the dusk, mesmerized by the gulls.
Gazing fixedly into the blue sea, I bemoan with shed tears,
as I yearn for the lovely gulls soaring above the blue harbor.

I'm not the best at drawing things, but I do like to take photos.
I like to imagine that, if the pokemon world was real, I'd spend my time taking photos of pokemon, instead of trying to do battle and stuff.
>>
>>55761464
I see your pictures on here sometimes. It looks like a fun hobby, keep it up man. Thank you for sharing them too.

There's a photographer character in Kalos I think, also of course Todd Snap. I expected a Johto Snap after the first game, but it never happened. They could totally make a new one with each new region, alas!
>>
>>55761496
it really is fun! makes me imagine I'm in the pokemon world, and that always is nice.

wish I had a full party of pokemon to assist me with it, but I am fully capable of doing it on my own -w-

Modern Pokemon cards are doing an amazing job of showcasing the slice-of-life theme. Most are just a couple dollars or less, so I would definitely recommend anons check out some cards and buy them for the great artwork.

funnily, enough, my favourite pokemon games are Shield, Moon (Acerola my Beloved), and Legends Arceus. I do have New Pokemon Snap, though!

2 days ago, I went for a walk with my dad. he got to fly his drone and observe the surroundings, I got to have a nice nature walk and take some really pretty photos. The one attached being one I took.
Although, the pond I took my Poliwag photo in has gotten muddy currently, but it'll be walkable in the summer! what will disappear, however, is the sort of "swampy" areas..

..need to order a yanma figure and return there before it dries, or another pokemon that'd fit. any suggestions?

Quagsire or Clodsire. Practically any of the Gen 4 Safari Zone mons too.

if you inspect any of my photos close enough, there will be a watermark of my socials in them! I make them visible enough for people to see them if they're looking for it, but invisible enough for it to go unnoticed if someone wants to steal the image.

yea! as said before, REALLY hard to find. Helps that I never really put them in corners, and I change the colour of it every time so it blends in. I don't like art where the watermark is so violently loud that it's the only thing you can pay attention to, y'know?

Often imageboards throughout the years so hueg collection, but Pixiv is the true treasure trove. Literally endless art for every tag. Make an account there and soon you'll be sick of saving hundreds or thousands of images. Boorus usually are just filtered Pixiv results. DeviantArt is the third wheel for me, but some extraordinary western artists only use DA.

This irritates me, maybe I'm closer to being autistic lile this board is than I thought.
>>
>>55827904
Can we really assume that all Pokemon act and think the same? Maybe this particular Alakazam enjoys walking and using its muscles. Or its mental capabilities could be... uh, "lacking" compared to others within its species.
>>
>>55807815
>>55808592
>>55828448
I invite you to expand your perception of the Pokemon world, which surely allows more diversity than you might at first think. It probably has a nickname, and lives a life with it's trainer. Perhaps this Alakazam's Special AT/DF IV and EVs are low because it was one of the dozens of Abra bred for a competitive trainer, but lost the lottery there so it was leftovers - but has high AT/DF IVs; not only that, but the local biodiversity of a remote area is small, so on the rare chance that it needs to battle (unlikely), then it probably only has a few species it would ever encounter, hence low EVs. Perhaps this one only just now turned "Level 16", and it already used all of it's "Power Points" today while levitating it's owners across the water to arrive at the only local piece of arable land. Maybe they only use it's special power for especially impossible tasks, but most of the time this Alakazam just lives a normal life.

Not every Ponyta is a racehorse just like your Japanese animes, nor every Jigglypuff a primadonna, etc. Not every Alakazam measures to the height of precisely Four Feet Three Inches, naturally some are shorter or taller. Some probably have smaller or larger ears, or darker or lighter features, or different colours entirely (aka Shiny, which we only see one variant of). Pokemon are not one-dimensional carbon copies of every member of the species, instead they are all different just like people are. The representations we see are just the average. AJ in the anime showed that not all Pokemon need to faint immediately when confronted with the Type they are weak to - you can train for that. Similarly, an in-game house is not a few sprite shoulder-widths wide, it's bigger on the inside. Every trainer would not begin in Pallet Town to follow a linear predefined gym route. Everything in-game is a distorted representation of how it would actually be.

y'know, if pokemon were real, I bet I'd have a small, but loyal team of pokemon that'd help me with life stuff. My go-to picks are Drampa, Grookey, Crabominable, Mr Mime, and Piloswine. 6th slot would be left open pokemon ranger style methinks.

Most illustrations with a character floating on plain background suck. Anybody can do that. To put the characters within an environment is peak fanart to me. More than other criteria, that's what "slice of life" means to me. If it's relaxing and nostalgic, all the better. The only time it bothers me is when the artist fills every inch of the canvas with dozens of different Pokemon - that always comes off as desperate and doesn't feel natural; but it works sometimes.

Not.. in the way you'd think.
I'm usually quick on my hands with it and find it easy to tell when they're about to float away.

..but I vividly remember meeting a skuntank figurine over my neighbor's fence and never saw it again when I was like, 5.
