Elite Four Ko-! ..Shinobu?! (Patreon)

Elite Four Shinobu is here!

While Shinobu is a relatively unknown character, Shinobu played a significant role in ONE episode of the Pokemon anime. Being a skilled Ninja herself, it felt appropriate replacing old stinky Koga with someone a bit younger.

Well, younger in appearance.. (she's 100 years old)

With Shinobu is Koga's iconic team, though primarily this means a reworked Zubat family and new Pineco family!

----------------------------------

The Zubat family has been totally overhauled / reworked!

These three were long overdue for a rework, and I spent a lot of time on these new ones. There are simply too many things to list that have been changed, but all of them are a product of my new techniques and utilize accessories, material edits, etc. Additionally, all of them now have full outfit sets and are almost entire rebuilt from the ground up.

There is a bit of overlap with the outfits as usual, though I mixed things up enough to feel somewhat fresh. There's also appropriate Shiny versions, should you like Watermelon Bats!

 ---------------------------------- 

Pineco & Forretress are here!

I did something a bit different with these two as far as their outfits are concerned. Typically I copy over the secondary slot, but since there's no 3rd evolution I used the Going Home slot as a sort of "alternate" default. In other words, what I would design if I just used my creative liberty, I suppose. Just as well, I usually leave the "base evolution" outfit for the Casual Clothes slot, so that 2nd and 3rd evolutionary family members can use the base outfits. While I kept that the same here for Forretress, I changed the color palette of it to match the rest of her outfits. Small distinction but I'll probably end up doing that more in the future. Crobat has the same pattern, actually.

Anyways, while Pineco was rather simple in design, I spent a lot more time on Forretress, and she's now my waifu, you can't have her (kidding, kidding), but seriously she came out so cute. She has simple custom hair, and little cannon things coming out of her head (like the actual Pokemon does). Oh, they're also available in SHINY GOLD versions.

There's probably dozens of little details I'm forgetting to mention. Load them up and check them out for yourself!

With all that said, I'm gonna go play with Forretress for awhile.

When I was young, I never once used Pineco/Forretress on my teams. That said, I also never thought that one day I would want to stick my dick in this:

Yet here we are.

And here are the cards!
