Day Eighteen of pokemarch! The rules of which are here

For this art challenge, all my pieces will fit the boxes and tone limits of the Gameboy and Gameboy Color respectively. In theory with colours used and tiles used these sprites could even be hacked into gen 2.

We kind of have to talk about Emolga's name right away for this one, as the Japanese name is "Emonga" and from what I found when digging, Emolga is just a really weird choice all around. I think the best explanation is that it could have sounded like an english slur, but I'm not 100% sure that's the reason why. It's not a translation error either, as the strokes for RU and N are totally different from one another. Maybe the people working in localisation (maybe a person) was having an off day? Your guess is a good as mine on this one!
