Alolan Rattata and Alolan Raticate are here!

As with before, there are no official Moemon sprites for either of these two, so creative freedom is used with them. That said, there's a lot of inspiration drawn from different sources to come to these designs.

First, let's look at the obvious - Rattata/Raticate are Dark/Normal types, and of course their official artwork is dark in color, thus leading to the color palette I chose for these two.

Second, let's look at their Pokedex entries. Specifically, as these are Alolan, let's look at their Alolan dex entries. In particular, these two:


Alolan Rattata (Moon) -  When the sun goes down, it becomes active. It runs around town on a chase for good food for the boss of its nest—Raticate.

Alolan Raticate (Sun) - It forms a group of Rattata, which it assumes command of. Each group has its own territory, and disputes over food happen often. 

Given the dark, mafia style behaviours of them, it seemed fitting to design them after such. Rattata has a delinquent appearance, while Raticate has taken the "Madame" boss role.

This is fitting, as I came across this sole piece of Alolan Raticate personification:

While I could not 100% replicate the design (heh, replicate, raticate..), the design I went with still bears a good resemblance, and isn't overly flashy. Rattata has a simpler design, but this is also intended. Rattata isn't the boss, they're just delinquent thugs who steal for Madame Raticate.

Overall, I love how these ones came out, and glad I got to make them today (I wasn't planning on making them until literally earlier this morning).

Here are the cards!
