I'm doing a series of all of the starter Pokemon, making avatar-sized versions of them, and now it's finally time to release the Sinnoh ones (actually did these three earlier this year, whoops!). I'm doing this because of my story series, Starting in the Lab, which has four separate stories in total and each stars the three different starters from the respective region.

This is Spruce, a cute and bubbly Piplup that tends to be a little naive about things, not to mention very gullible in general. She also hates to disappoint her friend, Pine, out of fears of her ending their friendship. She tries and tries, but often finds it not being enough... Maybe being 'cute' isn't worth being unhappy.

Spruce is from the Sinnoh installment of Starting in the Lab, which has two of three chapters finished.

Go ahead and use this for any purpose if you'd like to. I intentionally left these unsigned so they would make a great avatar or display pic or something. I may use these as my own avatars from time to time, but I don't mind if you use them as well, or put them as an image for a story, or basically whatever other use. I don't care.
