Alright /vp/, I thought of this idea a while ago.
What would happen if you gave a layman a description of a Pokemon (i.e "a blue turtle with cannons"), and had them draw it.
Now, what would happen if someone did that for every single Pokemon, resulting in a Pokedex full of knockoffs?
Let's try it. Claim the Pokemon you're doing, and try drawing it as if you only know a basic description. For bonus points, try to keep it in the "Pokemon style". Make it look like it could be a legitimate design for a Pokemon.
Let's only stop when we're done with each and every Pokemon!
Claiming the eagle with stylish hair
>>24725902
I don't think this really works unless the person has legitimately never seen the pokemon they're drawing
>>24725945
This, you can't expect Pokemon fans to be able do do this properly, you have to get normies to draw them
>>24725929
Don't know if this came out better or worse as expected
>>24725979
The whole point is actually to make them look like Pokemon, just with different designs
It's not to make them "lel so innacurate XD"
Anyway here's charizard
OP here.
Forgot to mention; make the evolution lines consistent! We want to make this seem legit, after all.
>>24725999
then you should have said that in the OP instead of "make a pokemon, but going by a basic description"
The one you just posted certainly doesn't follow the OP, because if someone was describing Charizard to someone who had never heard of it, don't you think they would have pointed out that it has a flame at the end of it tail?
>>24726043
I basically just did it off the description of "fire dragon"
>>24726066
gold
>>24726049
That's a pretty bad description. Lot's of things could be described as "fire dragon", not just a pokemon. Going by the example description in the OP, the least that could have said was "orange dragon with a flaming tail"
Anybody remember that one guy who came here who did this?
He had never played pokemon before and people would describe one for him to draw.
Since this thread isn't going to get many replies, i also did cute fat bird and songbird with swirly crest

i just cant stand seeing an african-australian cry
A crying ghost that hides behind a mask of its former self
A sinister ghost inhabiting a sarcophagus. It mumifies enemies it touches and has glowing red eyes
>>24726066
Hey, that might be a way to make this work better. Instead of just telling the person a basic description, show them all it's Pokedex entries and let them work off of that.
bump, working on something keep this thread alive!
>>24727617
neat idea
Decided to have fun with this.
A whole bunch of ghosts.
>>24726607

When every Pokemon is done, it would be cool to make a compiled image of them in dex order.
#080 "Hermit Crab pokemon" - Lazy, dumb pink aquatic hippo that uses a shell as a home
#126 "Spitfire pokemon" - A butt-headed duck fire duck
#176 "Happiness pokemon" - Weird fairy/bird without a beak. It's got red and blue shaped on its belly and a huge dumb smile
#385 "Wish pokemon" -Star with a face and a magical eye as a belly bottom. It also has 3 papers to write your wish on.
#402 "Cricket pokemon" -Cricket that looks like a violin and has a mustache
>>24732069
magmar still looks too much like magmar, make it an actual butt and you;re gold.
A refined plant lady with a leaf dress and plant hat.

>waahh why doesn't dragonbarney look like dragonair
Go fuck yourself.
a different idea
1-Get a glitch pokemon from first gen
2-look at their stats and etc...
3-With all this info draw the pokemon that fit on the stats
I remember there was like a blog that was just like this actually. Someone who apparently didn't know about Pokemon had people describe them to him and he'd draw them.
>>24733389
Alright fucko you first
>>24733471
How long ago? Think it could still be found?
