Part of my series "150 followers, 150 pokémon" I'm doing on twitter, this one is for   ruleroftherainforest

The anime repeatedly shows pokémon as babysitters, which is a concept I've always found fascinating, especially when the pokémon is #081 Magnemite who straight-up looks like a ball.

This one took way longer than anticipated, not just because I had to break for finals, but because I kept forgetting what I was doing half the time. The stripes, for instance, would've been easier to color with the brush tool, but I stubbornly stuck to doing them with the vector tool because that's how I was coloring everything else. It's been a sadly long time since I've done something like this. Next time, it'll be better.

I am offering to color (or redraw*) any of those sketches for $5 as a simple YCH. I do have a system for determining the quality when someone pays more than $5. In this case, it roughly works out to

• 5: color
• +5: shading
• +5: texture (Fur, pads, etc)
• +5: background colors
• +5: background texture (that floor was so annoying!)
• +5: lineless

*"hey, can you do that but with my 'sona?" counts
