Also I dont post here tons, but you may have seen my work. I did the mock cover for Spookin' with Scoops

So in celebration of Pokemon X&Y, I'm gonna attempt to draw every pokemon before the game's release. That will most certainly mean I'm gonna have to draw more than one Pokemon a day but at least one a day is the goal.

I'm in school right now but these are just doodles so it shouldn't be a huge chunk of my time.

I'm gonna be updating this thread and thecalgee.tumblr.com If this isn't the appropriate forum, I'll be glad to delete it.

If I don't post everyday, bug me about it. Help me do this Giant Bomb community.

And here's Bulbasaur to Venusaur to get started.

EDIT: I'll be updating this main post with full evolutionary lines.

You know what, it never occurred to me that the 'saurs were horrible pig monsters, but looking back at it, you're probably right.

To me, they look more like horrible turtle creatures with ears.

I like the idea of making pokemon look like ugly real animals, and that Spookin' with Scoops cover is fantastic, so I am very much in favor of this endeavor.

@haltiamreptar: Most things I draw end up looking like horrible pig monsters. Expect this to be a recurring theme.

Thanks @arbitrarywater! Means a lot. And @ravenlight your rendition of Bulbasaur looks even more pug like than mine.

Nice work. Skip over 'Trubbish' and 'Garbador' though. Or actually, no don't I'm sure what you'll do with them is better than the real ones. By real I mean... ahhhhh you get it

This is supremely awesome, I'll be sure to come back here to check regularly. I also promise to bug you if updates become too unfrequent, and if I don't, bug me about it! ...wait.

Speaking of bugs, I have a soft spot for Bug pokemon so I'm especially excited to see your Caterpie and Weedle, but also Cubone, cause Cubone is a bad mofo.

I'm really liking these changes to the Pokemon. They look cool.

Also, I might have flagged your post, @jacksukeru, by mistake while looking through the thread. Sorry about that, but I immediately unflagged it.

If Pokemon actually looked like this, I would probably start playing again. Awesome stuff, man.

On the other hand, that would probably traumatize a lot of kids these days.

@symptomz: Weedle and Caterpie never learning more than 2 attacks always made me a little sad.

I don't know when I started appreciating Weedle. Maybe it was that specific sound bite of it saying its name as it lept to attack in an early episode of the anime, that had been stuck in my head for so long that it eventually crystallized itself into a form not unlike nostalgia.

Maybe it was its underdog nature, with it never getting any attention as its form was swiftly traded away for bigger and stronger ones. Forms that themselves never quite got the attention they were due (Butterfree, that smug bastard, is surely to blame).

Maybe it's the nose?

Either way, good going! I'm expecting great, creepy things from Kakuna and Beedrill.

@symptomz: The GBA ones. I kinda stopped caring after that, because the designs just looked uninspired at one point. Thought about playing SoulSilver since it's a remake of one of the best Gens.

@jacksukeru I just like saying the name Weedle. And I think all his charm comes from his bulbous nose. It's a shame even Beedrill never became more useable.

@daftronaut I think there are hits and misses in every generation from a design standpoint. Soulsilver would be especially fun if you haven't played since the GBA days. Nostalgia boom.

Kakuna turned out okay. I like Beedrill better though.

I look forward to Stunfisk. Some of these look like they're a few chromosomes shy... so that one should really be a gem all things considered.

I like that you went a little off script with the colors and design of Kakuna, and Beedrill's design looks fantastic. Now if only its stingers were actually drill shaped its name would make a little more sense.

Next up are some pretty similar looking birds IIRC, I don't envy you having to think up how to make them look interesting.

Doing what I can to ruin one childhood memory at a time.

@jacksukeru It's hard. I'm trying to remain true to the design while injecting a little bit of my style into them. Some of them get hit harder with the ugly stick than others. ALSO, I'm gunna run into a problem soon. With Pikachu and many others, they have pre-evolutions or new evolutions. I don't know if I should just do it in the classic order or put the new evos with the whole line.
