"Anyways. Thank you for the compliment, it's nice to have my hard work noticed. My petals are quite unique, after all. As for your question, I bloom year round, but... winter is a struggle at times. Rather cold, after all... I try to stick to warm areas."

Cocoa is a shy child, but they are the sweetest thing. They love snuggles and cuddles and lots of TLC. A very smol and fluffy child with very good toe beans. They love tea, coffee, and biscuits.

Mega-Mew’s Theory on Pokémon blog Aesthetics.

Through this research, I’ve “attempted” (in the biggest possible speech marks you can find) to analyse these 3 blogs and what makes their aesthetics a success. Let’s get started. First: @askanrattata​

Rattata’s art style refers to a perfect blend between simplicity and realism in her drawings. The Pastel colour palette allows easy viewing on the eyes, and is constantly pleasant to look at. The main aesthetic of rattata is also to make things as circular as possible to almost everything in her drawings. Her thumbs, the tuffs of fur around her neck resembles that of a fluffy coat, and even her whiskers tend to be either bigger than usual or smaller just to satisfy that tolerance of the circular width-to-height ratio. This is seen when comparing the original Rattata’s whiskers to that of the blog’s rattata. In other news, the blogs rattata fallows more biology or real life rats compared to that of Pokemon's original Rattata. the eyes show more black and leave little room for the white of the eye, perfect for Rattata’s more simplistic and cartoonish expressions shown in the image above. There’s also the hind legs that are shown to be thicker and resemble that of a real rat. This allows the gravity balance of Rattata and her ability to constantly stand up, giving a more human feel behind her. Lastly, outlining is important, but it’s not always acceptable. the black of lines stand out, and if constantly drawn, each block of colour becomes it’s own separate entity (sort of). The colours are also given a chance to shine as no lighting or shading is necessary for this simplistic rat, although there are some orange triangles in certain areas to resemble some shade, from the left ear and arms. (see below)

In short, Rattata’s art style resembles that of a real rat, with some changes to make her appearance more friendly, both in the contour of her drawings as well as the pastel colour palette.

Next is @daily-zorua​

Unlike Rattata, Zorua’s colour palette is more “in your face” than anything. The contrast of the colours have deepened, and some colours have been completely removed such as the irises. Some of the body parts have also changed such as the tail, with the black and red motif similar to the tuff of hair on his head. Similar to Gardevoir, the blog’s Zorua allows his whiskers to become similar length to his ears, allowing a more circular, if not square shape to his head. Extra features have also been given to Zorua by reference to real foxes; the snout extends and the nose becomes bigger, taking up roughly 70% of the top of the snout. There’s also some really nice touches with dots for whiskers, and the canine maw looks inside the maw (see below). For comedic effect, more human expressions are given to Zorua by changing the eyes, the red eyebrows shift to give the expression instead of being a resemblance to Original Zorua’s shifty and mischievous nature, and the lower jaw’s length (see top image). Lastly, the fur around the neck expands like Rattata, and is darkened to give more attention to the head. Again, no shading is required.

Lastly, @occasionallysalazzle​

Even out of her own blog, she’s still trying to spray away her reference by trying to neglect everything a Salazzle is: A shifty, almost succubus-like fire lizard. Colour is completely neglected except for character’s outlines, which only makes them more 2D than they already are. This makes them simple to draw, and leaves room for lots of editing in body structure. For starters, it’s obvious that Salazzle doesn’t follow her Pokemon reference, nor does she for her IRL counterpart, which makes Salazzle so unique and simple: There are so many aspects of comedy out there in the media, and with Salazzle’s non-existent colour-scheme and simple humanoid-yet-cartoonish body structure, she can fit into any category of comedy she deserves, but more or less likely slapstick comedy. While a original Salazzle has features such as narrow feminine eyes, long feet and hands, thin arms and a flickering tail, Occasional-Salazzle holds none of it; She’s her own woman and proud of it! She can be wherever she wants to be and she owns it. Her body structure is more cartoonist humanoid, and that means more circular and square shapes in her body structure, while holding some triangles for her natural species archetypes and is still recognizable.

That’s all for now. Thank you for reading this quick attempt at analyzing artists of the Pokemon community. If you want me to analyse more blogs, or want to touch up on what I have probably missed out on, contact me either through messenger or the ask box. I hope this also helps with anyone aspiring to make it big in the community, so long as you also have passion for it, but hey, don’t take my word for it.

(Small little kinda ask that you may ignore if you wish, but wowow, your art is very nice, like I was just staring at your backgrounds. They are equally both simply yet detailed. It's really inspiring, also I hope you have a great time in the community. If you ever need help with anything please feel more then free to ask, I'll be sure to help any way I can]

( I was battling myself trying to figure out if you’d rather this be answered privately or not! but it made me happy, so I’m deciding to publish it just for the sake of keeping it!you’re too sweet and I appreciate it so much 😍💕💓I already have 70+ followers??? and many kind signal boosts, so my thanks to those people too!!! )
