Better late than never, we’re excited to share the submission we got for our Fan-Art call! Sadly we only got two submission, likely due to the busy holiday period, but they are beautiful pieces.

Congrats to the giveaway winners btw, and I hope everyone had a happy new year! I did… until the day after that is ._.
Anyway, question thing to bring in some convo. If you were a Pokemon, what Pokemon would you be?
Hard mode: What Pokemon would at least three of your family members be?
Harder mode: Same as above, but they must all be from the same evo line (counting branched evo lines)
Harder mode, we’d be Slowpoke
Me & Brother- Slowpoke
Dad- Slowking
Mom- Slowbro
But all in all I’d be a Poliwag
Ideally Gardevoir
But realistically, Garbodor
Tbh I can’t decide which Pkm I would be, it’s just luck. But I guess something like a Gallade or Deci would fit me tho
Ughh my family is WAY unrelated to any of the Rhyhorn line
I see
Me: Rhyperior duh
My Asshole brother: either a Nuzleaf or Cacturn
My mope youngest brother: Phantump
My Mother: Audino
My Father: Chatot or Exploud
Ugh, why do I have to have rare taste in Sage? (I didn’t have my laptop over New Years, but finally got it back)
Hunting for Macabra and its a difficult one to track sadly 🙁
For those who forgot what it is its this guy
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/61b0ef82bda90775dd2d0c06dc2eb8396eadd5540f96303e81341bb53db24ac0.png
It’s a cool one, I personally searched a while for it. Though nothing compared to Leukoon (I think it’s called).
so am i the only one who had no idea MandJTV came to pokejungle?
I had no idea either
i mean it’s cool haha no matter an opinion about somebody (i personally enjoy his videos) its cool when somebody like that comes here…to me atleast.
Star, your artwork is really good. I’m impressed. I can tell you put a lot of work into it
Thank youuuuu!!! >w<
You’ve improved a lot guuuurl! Practice makes perfect!
You guys are so sweeeet!!!! Nice comments like these are what keep me going! ^~^
Prankster is truly the most annoying ability after Serene Grace
one of those 4 slot status move users Illumise Roost, Aromatherapy Rain Dance Thunder Wave
I knew I wouldn’t win, ah well. I might if I can get the Midday one for myself anyway tbh.
The art is good, a shame there’s only 2 but quality over quantity I guess. I basically chickened out of doing one because whilst I can picture exactly what I want to do I can never get it out on the page anything like it. I know I need to practice more, I just have no confidence and really didn’t want to showcase my lack of ability.
Hope everyone’s year is going well so far, I’m sick again myself. I did manage to see The Last Jedi again today though. I realise whilst I really like it there’s definitely some issues, but also things I appreciated much more this time around.
i am seeing Qwilfish everywhere today
The only good way to start off 2018
AS IN LOSING MY FREAKING PU RANK
Sounds amazing!
IT”S FUKING ANNOYING
It’s fucking godly
As legendary Pokemon should be
why is it so fast despite its dex saying its poorly built for swimming, it’s just always a hassle seeing if i can psych out the other jerkface to urge him to switch into a Dark type only to get a faceful of Signal Beam on my Beheeyem i should suck it up and life orb it so i don’t have to let specs lock me in
Must be Intimidateing.
doesn’t even need to be physically invested all it needs to do is play the op scalding game and set up
Oh I have the Exeggcute you wanted btw.
had 1.3k in PU 20 minutes ago and now reduced to 1.1k
Always the freaking Qwilfish i’ve seen at least 6 of them
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7pu-683182999 i feel better now
Do any of you forget a Pokemon gets a certain ability or move?
Never knew Qwilfish got Intimidate lol
Now just wait for it to get an evo
In fairness Intimidate is its’ Hidden Ability.
I can’t think of any I’ve forgotten, probably because I’ve forgotten.
Until recently I never knew delibird got the same ability twice
I never knew Drifblim had a signature ability, a very good one in fact
I knew
It’s sad nothing else can make use of it
Chandelure should really get it imo.
it cant
Oh I thought it was when hit by a Fire move not burnt.
I forgot so many of the new moves they added because I never knew them till I was looking at them on the pokedex

isnt minecraft already out?
Forgot the Switch still doesn’t have a virtual console.
So yeah when is that releasing
Why is /vp/ so thirsty?
and why are we way thirstier https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d325a098ca666c65cb73f5bb4a501a6dda7806d933090a4d3f9e5826be00ce04.jpg
They’ve actually ran out of ideas for titles, and these logos look like they belong in a fan game
WAIT WHA
WHAT
IT’S REAL
IT’S
R E A L
E
A
L
wait what?
Sorry I don’t actually know for sure if it’s real but look at this:
https://www.scribd.com/document/368285833/EUIPO-eSearch
what is this?
It’s fake, it’s a pdf on scribd, not an actual trademark database.
I know, but it’s their effort to try to “prove” they saw what they saw.
#fakenews
The trademark number is lower than USUM when every other Pokémon trademark number is sequential
They’re most likely fake, unless they were somehow trademarked before USUM. Which would make sense if Stars was scrapped for USUM, which raises the question of why they hadn’t been found at that point.
One and zero are both real, by the real numbers theory (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_number)
This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen
its fake
Thank god
Not saying it’s fake 100 percent. That said it reminds me of 2016 when the trademarks for sun and moon were leaked. I remember serebii screaming it didn’t mean anything even though it happened one day before the Pokémon 20th anniversary event lol that said if pokemon one and zero somehow happened I would most likely go with zero(not saying I believe it just being hypocritical)
So I have a reliable source and I drew the legendaries for Pokémon 1 and 0 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6918ba657bad0e9bb6ab2fad7e6ab02cccd00aa098f4b418e162c64f5cb9556b.jpg
But what is the third game?
Two
That’s it? No 1.0 or 0.1?
thats the fusion
Inb4 binary
It’s literally fucking digimon
Dude… that’s not how you use ‘literally’ unless you actually mean that
I kniw
Remakes
Never knew Sonic was becoming a box legend
WHY IS THERE SONIC THERE.
I was trying to draw sonic
He looks kinda adorable ngl

http://i.4cdn.org/vp/1514942133210.jpg
Great game
I like how the outline of the Pokémon logo doesn’t even change lol
UNLESS they saved the image from the trademark site and are now covering up the truth to protect their dear wife and child barricaded in the back room from the onslaught of Nintendo ninjas!
Nintinjas
but the logs look kinda bad unless its just beta rn
If you open it up fullsize you can see the bad paint job.
Tag yourself I’m the ‘tm’ awkwardly hanging fifty miles away
I’m the eyeball of the zero

yush
Mmmmm alright maybe you can do better
I’ve been trying to perfect my Poison/Fairy type Gloomour and Malistocrat, it needs to look like a sullen young child with pompous attire and a curvaceous wealthy female Pokémon with a stunning dress like body and fru fru hat
draw Dr.Coyle
I can’t believe they put me in the game https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/247f797021370879a3b9b105633955a2b74d627ddf21972cf2360f359fc899e3.jpg
I can’t think something good rn so a mecha dinosaur

I love the little “pew”
You tried
( AND SUCCEEDED)
Is this Stra Wasr?
.. no
But the pew and the cannon. Actually from what I’ve seen, this could be where Jurassic War is going.
The mascots of 1.0 and 0.1
I already did
The remake ones I mean
A sentient pineapple with several unrelated appendages which is being viewed in a museum by parents and children.
Gyar ados Oak.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e0c95236b3fb9906c7a79d346a9a04c16b2e726ed7d387a489a7255f7dacafe6.jpg
I thought it would be his head on a Gyarados body but this is great.
Zossie but as a bird
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/383a10290f4c74cdc3945d902623ecf4e009ca2762e97f38386684a221bebd30.jpg
I’m not dissapointed whatsoever
If pokemon zero was a game and x and y got a sequel called W, couldn’t I spell out 0w0 with legendaries?
What’s this?
>0w0
But why tho
Because it’s close to uwu
Ngl I never expected people here to be into Uwu :p
It’s a jok
Nintendo Wiiuwu
Post of the year right here
Bad
Pokémon (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ and Pokémon ┬──┬ ノ( ͡° ل͜ ͡°ノ).
Yes, just yes

:3 and 3:
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ and “¯_(ツ)_/¯”
The real question is if gamefreak is greedy enough to try the two versions bullshit on the switch
It’s gamefreak
You mean it’s a rhetoric question.
Hey guys… Why does Wobbufet have to be such a risk to use
You need it to be always slower than your foe and you gotta hit the foe with encore and hope it was actually using an attack and not a status move. And even after that its still not a cake walk to fight with
Because it’s a literal punching bag
But why does it have to be such a hit and miss thing
If Toxic or Leech Seed is used your screwed
Because it’s a punching bag, it’s not meant to attack
But a status move could help it a bit
eh..
People that are actually able to use Wobbufet and these kind of Pkm in a walkthrough highly surprises me
Using it in game is suicide basically especially in Gen.2
Lookin through 4chan game pair names. Sugar and spice came up as a name and a person mentioned how everything nice was too long of a name for a third game
Why does Gumshoos learn yawn at level 47?
It’s tired and getting ready for retirement.
If only that were the case
Why would the ultra recon squad send a little girl (Zossie) on a mission that essentially can determine the fate of several dimensions
Because she’s totally kawaii or whatever. Idk maybe she’s a prodigy.
K A W A I I
No but seriously, she spends her entire time like “SUGOIIIII, PLAYER YOU’RE SO COOOOOL”
I don’t know what her purpose even is
Maybe to offset Dulses’ personality? Such as it is.
But like it’s not really that bad….. Like Dulse isn’t as ultra (see what I did there?) serious as the UM members
Hm, idk I’m just going off of early game as I’m not that far.
Last spam post for now
I feel like Grumpig is like top five least remembered Pokemon
It should be part Ground or maybe Dark. As it is it just plain isn’t that great.
Yeah…
Hoenn and Sinnoh probably have some of the most forgettable Pokemon because they’re nowhere near as well known as Gens 1 and 2 and they aren’t exactly recent either
I mean stantler has been shitted to relevance. Grumpig is literally the most “there” pokemon
I only started liking Grumpig after I started my RSE roms sadly I didn’t use it in OR
Swampert
Shiny Hariyama
Aggron
Flygon
Armaldo (barely used it)
Walreign
I just looked through the list of all Pokémon and the only ones I could say I “forgot” are Tyrogue, Woobat/Swoobat and Durant. It’s strange because Gen 5 is my favorite region.
Hmmm…. Why Durant?
I don’t know, possibly because Gen 5 has a lot of basic stage only Pokémon of large size (Cryogonal, Heatmor, Druddigon) and Durant just didn’t stand out as much.
Cryogonal is a great thing
I know I keep talking about the Nintendo Direct, but here are my hopes and dreams for the Nintendo Direct with a dash of reason and logic thrown in:
Thursday, January 11
Switch:
-Pikmin 4 (Summer)
-Animal Crossing (Early Fall)
-Kirby Star Allies (April) with light pink Joy-Con
-Yoshi full title (June/July) with light green Joy-Con
-Lots of indies and third party stuff
-Super Mario Odyssey: Isle Delfino DLC with Super Luigi Odyssey campaign
-Random new IP that looks good coming out way sooner than expected (March)
-Ends with Smash Bros for Switch logo (more details at E3)
3DS:
-Wario Land (late 2018)
-new 2D Zelda game (May) with limited edition gold New 2DS XL
-localizing some useless eShop stuff
-that’s it
Paper Mario
Link’s Awakening remade
Pikmin 4
A new Wario Game
I’d like to see some kind of Link’s Awakening successor or reimagining on Switch before the next big 3D Zelda. I just feel like it’s the only kind of story and world that would really fit the system and the post-BotW world we live in. And I could totally see Paper Mario at E3 considering how they announced Kirby and Yoshi last year. It’s cool that after this Direct we’ll be able to predict Nintendo’s 2019, which sounds nuts to me.
Literally one of the worst regional variants I’ve ever seen
And the lore is duuuumb
http://www.projectazurite.com/kurian-tsareena
The thing about Azurite is that it’s definetly in the upper caliber of fangames but its stuff is extremely hit and miss
Yeah but it has my favorite thing ever https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/babd740b1ac87d311826cfb97e2f0e2bdb49976a55b0536f49cbd661e35a7510.png
They’re all amazing designs and concepts but some of them feel more like Delta pokemon tbh 😡
Seriously though this Lopunny is probably one of my favorite things. I love it so much
True
“Within Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, visiting the Game Freak building with Pokémon introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver has a non-player character relate how they were having trouble getting data onto the Game Boy Color game cards until they were helped by an “amazing guy”; this acknowledges Iwata’s contribution to Gold and Silver that allowed them to include the whole of the world from Pokémon Red and Blue without compromising the size of the Gold/Silver world.”
How did I miss this?!
Finishing a game and not seeing Iwata’s name at the end leaves such an empty feeling…
It requires you to have the VC game in order for the text line to activate

Did you consider Gloomour?
Yeah, just wasn’t in a fakemon mood my dude
