Description The first letter to his mom, just after receiving Pikachu.

"Dear Mom,
Professor Oak was gonna give me an Eevee!
But Gary took the Eevee before I could...
But, it's okay.
Professor Oak gave me a Pikachu instead.
I named him Zippy.
I hope Zippy likes me.
Love, Alex."

Please note that the words in the boxes are meant to be messy; Alex is only 10 after all!

Gary's a jerk! LOL

I like the style of this. The more snubby nose, the mussed hair, etc.
とてもかわいいですね〜
ふわふわピカチュウにだきしめたい!

(squishes pikachu, but takes care to avoid cheeks)

Gary is nothing but a butt. I'm wondering if I should develop his character a bit more? I have some pretty heavy things I'm considering for later in the comic

I'm glad you like it. I've become in love with the half-anime, half-western cartoon style ever since I started watching Steven Universe. WHOOPS LOL

Well Alex, sorry to say but Zippy doesn't like you. He doesn't like you until a little later in the game.

Haha, in-game Zippy actually seems pretty okay with me at this point.
I mean, he smiles when I talk to him, so he at least doesn't dislike me! XD

It's getting such good feedback both her and the Nuzlocke Forums and Marriland Forums, so I'm definitely gonna continue! I have the next page started, I just have to decide how I want to show it happening.

Experiment! Since I too am starting something new, I try out a lot of things and, if I like it, I stick with it. If ur not sure, give it a go anyway. U never know, u might like it.

Haha, too true! In fact, the style I'm drawing Dear Mom in is fairly new to me; I started watching Steven Universe recently and thought that a cartooney style that's just a little bit anime and just a little bit Western animation would be fun to draw. It's really easy and really fun to draw!

CatAndDragons In reply to FlameBlame [2015-05-23 15:16:31 +0000 UTC]

I remember going to the store to get my first Pokemon game and wanting "The one where Pikachu follows you. The yellow one." and they showed me Gold, and saying "Pikachu doesn't follow you in this."
I remember the clerk looking and being like "I don't think we have that one." So I took Silver instead. 
I didn't actually get Yellow until just a few years ago. It's one of my favourites though!

pretty much every kids dream to get a pikachu dont you think. If that actually happens in yellow then i should've got that , but unfortunately i only have red

Yellow was the Pokemon game that I wanted for pretty much my entire life but didn't get until I was 18 or so!
I actually own every main series game except for Emerald and Omega Ruby XI Including the original Green version!
