replayed pokemon Y recently. i never really noticed this before, but male trainers tend to use male pokemon and female trainers tend to use female ones

a redraw of a tumblr post as a comic featuring characters from pokemon x/y.
professor sycamore says "women shoild only use female pokemon and men should only use male pokemon ."
serena asks "what about nonbinary people", while pointing towards trevor and shauna. sycamore, puzzled, replies "fuck i don't know". he pauses for one panel and finally says "cloysters". trevor says "Glad I'm genderfluid" and shauna says "We can use anything we want!", but sycamore points at them and says 'you have to use cloysters".

i've always liked archeops but i've gained a newfound love for them thanks to new pokemon snap. the way they move is like… half muppet, half human person in a bird costume. very endearing

this gives you way too much insight into my character creation process because it becomes a little too clear that said ""process"" is just me thinking "haha wouldn't it be funny if-" from start to finish

a drawing of 3 characters captioned "Dr. Plasma's parents, Earl and Meyer".
earl, a crystal ball-headed character wearing wizard clothes, is standing on the left, with one hand on dr. plasma's shoulder. dr. plasma, a plasma ball-headed scientist, is standing in the middle, and meyer, an electric tiger with lightning bolt-shaped stripes, is standing on the right.

a drawing of dr. plasma and her parents captioned "Her mom's a philosopher/historian and her dad's a fortune-teller/astrologist. She's deeply and equally embarrassed by both of them."
earl, her dad, is saying "I'm such a virgo, and Venus is in retrograde, so…" and meyer, her mom, is saying "You know, some philosophers believe that-". dr. plasma is holding her head in her hands and shouting "STOOOOP THAT'S SO UNSCIENTIFIC" at both of them.

everything reminds me of them

a screenshot of three comments redrawn to be a conversation between three characters: a bat, a witch and a ghost.
the bat asks "If a hungry lion kills and eats a deer, is the lion evil?". the witch answers "The deer is evil for being weak" and the ghost answers "They are both evil for being alive". a jack-o-lantern reading in the background is looking at them, concerned and puzzled, with three question marks above his head.

happy new year...!
this is probably my favorite thing i drew in '24

two comic panels.
in the first panel, a girl wearing a yellow bandana says "Gee, I don't know, uh… Give it to charity? Solve world hunger and homelessness, stuff like that."
in the second panel, a witch appears behind her and yells "Aw, BOOOOOO" while giving the girl two thumbs-downs. the girl looks extremely annoyed.

for a kirby-themed secret santa event

the first of two pages of a kirby comic.
panel 1: an establishing shot of the halberd at night, and a sleigh parked on a neaby cliff.
panel 2: king dedede, dressed as santa claus, slowly creaks a door open inside the halberd. it's fairly dark.
panel 3: dedede continues to stand by the doorway, and two waddle dees dressed as reindeer holding a lantern catch up to him and slightly illuminate the room. "Huh", he thinks to himself.
panel 4: dedede and the waddle dees enter the room. dedede stares at an empty bed with bat-patterned covers and thinks, "He's not here."

the second and final page of the comic.
panel 1: the three exit the room, leaving a present behind. dedede thinks to himself, "…Knowing him, he's probably getting some late-night training in."
panel 2: on his way out, dedede can be seen passing by the doorway of a slightly lit room.
panel 3: dedede can no longer be seen from the lit room's doorway.
panel 4: dedede returns to the lit room's doorway to get a better look. he looks extremely surprised.
panel 5: dedede, still looking extremely surprised, is revealed to be looking at meta knight eating a parfait in his kitchen. meta knight is staring back at him, looking equally surprised.

santa claus comic from last year. happy holidays!

a comic featuring a ghost, a witch, a bat and a jack-o-lantern walking in the snow. there are pine trees in the background.
panel 1: the witch, while pointing at the ghost, says "Oh, Graves, maybe you'd know this." and the ghost says "What?"
panel 2: the witch asks, "Is it true that Santa Claus is something of an urban legend to humans?"
panel 3: the ghost looks confused as he repeats "…Urban Legend."
panel 4: the witch says, "Yeah, like Bigfoot an' Bloody Mary an' all that. A big worldwide phenomenon where people spread and twist rumors about him…", and the jack-o-lantern continues, "…And there's a big discussion around whether or not he really exists."

panel 1: the ghost pauses for a moment.
panel 2: the ghost says "…Uhh, when you put it like that, sure, Santa Claus is an urban legend. (Emphasis on 'legend'.)"
panel 3: the ghost continues, "But really, only little kids discuss his existence. After a certain age, you get picked on for believing in him."
panel 4: the jack-o-lantern asks, "You get picked on for being right?" and the ghost replies as dramatically as possible with "Story of my life, Jack."
panel 5: the witch puts her right arm around the ghost and pokes his face with her left index finger as she asks, "Did YOU believe in Santa Claus, Graves?". the ghost replies "Oh, sure, but from a purely philosophical standpoint."

panel 1: the ghost says, "Y'know how Pascal's Wager concludes that the gain from believing in god and there really being one is infinitely greater than the gain from not believing and there not being one?". there are three art pieces in the background.
panel 2: the witch and the bat look at the jack-o-lantern inquisitively, but he just shrugs.
panel 3: the witch says "…Yeah?"
panel 4: the ghost says "That, but with Santa Claus." and everyone else gives him a weird look. the art pieces in the background appear again, this time with crudely drawn santa claus apparel drawn on them.
