Description

A few months ago, I decided to give the Pokémon games a try and purchased a copy of Pokémon X, a decision of which I am very happy I made. I see why people enjoy these games so much now, they really capture one's imagination, especially when it comes to the Pokemon themselves- I ended up making up individual personalities for each member of my team as I went on which in turn led to a surplus of fan art. Pictured here is Henry, my Gardevoir which I captured as a Ralts very early on in the game and became a staple member of my party through the entirety of the game and beyond. I always imagined him to be a wannabe knight who is rather abashed by his generally feminine appearance- it was his dream to become a chivalrous Gallade someday, but his pitiful novice trainer didn't know she was supposed to give him a dawn stone while he was still a Kirlia so he ended up evolving into a Gardevoir. He's a real manly man- er-  'mon, so to speak, but he must cope with the fact that he is stuck in a dress for the rest of his life. Don't worry, Henry, I'm sure you're not the only male Gardevoir out there with such sentiments! >v<''

Anyway, there are a lot of details in this drawing that are pretty sloppy that I'm going to touch up later, so expect an updated scan to replace this one in the future. Probably will post other pieces of the rest of my Pokémon crew as well. With that said, I hope you enjoy the picture and let me know what you think!

Ah, and here I am, finally commenting on all your arts for the last four months! I'm sorry it's taken so long!
But, this Henry one came out wonderfully! I like how grumpy he looks, even when he's in such a peaceful spot.

Ah, it's totally okay! You've been working hard and I totally understand!

Ah, and thank you so much! Yeah, he always looks a little bit grumpy even when he isn't, but for good reasons. XD He's in some ways reminds me of Hope from Final Fantasy XIII mixed with a tiny bit of Radcliffe. >v<''

Thank you so much for all the awesome comments!

Hooray! It's Henny! He is the manliest knight of them all! He is not alone though. Gary has the same problem. It can be difficult to be a male Sylveon! He gets bullied at the day care center. Henny and Gary can destroy them though.

For sure! Together they shall prove to Kalos and beyond how manly they truly are! The world may not be able to handle such Norris-esque manliness! All naysayers shall die the Gary way!

Aww, thank you so much, Minty! Yeah, gardevoirs are definitely very high on the most radical pokemon list, I wholeheartedly agree!

Ahh you have X!!? I have Y. I caught a Ralts in the beginning of the game as well and he actually became a Gallade. My first Gallade ever. XD Took forever to find a dawn stone though. Everstones for the win! Loving the art as always!

MissPeridot In reply to GhostAlly [2014-01-11 20:57:08 +0000 UTC]

Aww, thank you so much! We'll have to have a pokemon battle sometime, then! Ah, yeah, everstones are really helpful! I am such a novice to the series that I didn't know about everstones or pressing B to cancel evolutions on the game at the time, so when little Henny hit level 30 he was doomed by my ignorance. XD Insult was added to injury when I found the mega stone for him. >v< Ah, and that is so cool! Yeah, the dawn stone is in a really out-of-the-way place in the game unless one is won from secret super training. I found it only after I had beat the game and ended up laughing at the irony when I found it. >v<''

We should! My team is a little unbalanced so I can't promise I'll give much of a fight. .u. Despite that I only started playing Pokemon games since Ruby I got lucky with my Kirlia. He was level 29 when I thought "Hmm I feel like having a Gallade. How do I get one of those?" XD

MissPeridot In reply to GhostAlly [2014-01-18 04:39:36 +0000 UTC]

Ah, it's okay, mine is super unbalanced too! >v< I pretty much picked mine just on a basis of how mush I liked a certain pokemon and not on overall stats or anything fancy. :3

GhostAlly In reply to MissPeridot [2014-03-17 10:35:34 +0000 UTC]

The majority of my team was fire type. I wasn't paying attention and was just "You're cute. You're cute. You're cool looking. You look promising. You're cute. You're funny so I should add you. Wow so many nice new pokemo-woah my party's full." But still one I want to get is that cute new bat type. They look so lovely. I need to find more time to play that game.

MissPeridot In reply to GhostAlly [2014-03-18 02:12:42 +0000 UTC]

Haha, that was the exact method I used to pick my team as well! XD I pretty much just picked ones that I thought looked cute or cool too! Oh, and is the new bat type you're looking for a noibat? Because if so I can get you one with its special hidden ability, as I have it on friend safari! ^v^ I can give you it in a trade if you want. What name would you like for it and would you prefer a girl noibat or a boy one?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

GhostAlly In reply to MissPeridot [2014-04-16 23:11:49 +0000 UTC]

Yes, it is!! A trade would be lovely! Preferably male but a female would be fine. I'd like the name Noiz. .u. Noibat...Noiz...it works. For some reason I'm naming everything in games Noiz. Somehow my pokemon have evaded having this nickname. Any particular pokemon you'd like that you're having trouble getting? I might be able to help. Also have quite a few starter pokemon from a few different regions if that interests you. Thanks again! We need to make a date for a battle too...

MissPeridot In reply to GhostAlly [2014-04-17 02:54:19 +0000 UTC]

Ooh, I'll certainly look for a hearty male Noibat for you, then! And Noiz, I'll remember that name! ^v^ Oh, and for a trade in return you can trade back anything you want to give in return. Hmm, maybe Treeko if you can find one, but if not, that is totally okay!

Ah, and we'll totally have to arrange a battle of doom! 0v0 It will be exciting to see who is on your team and how the lineup will play out! I am terrible at battles, to warn you ahead of time, but it will be so fun!

Thanks so much!!! I really appreciate it!!

Yessss! I'm not too great at battles either. I tend to just jump in. ^^ I think in X and Y your pokemon are put at the same level. I'm looking forward to it!!

Ah, I am glad to hear that I am not the only non-overly-hardcore battler on that game! >v< Looking forward to the battle and trade whenever we both end up online at the same time!

Yess! Well it can be pretty random when I get internet since I'm not all that in charge of it. o-o When do you usually get on?

MissPeridot In reply to GhostAlly [2014-05-13 21:00:30 +0000 UTC]

Ah, yeah, your brother mentioned that your guy's internet likes to poop out on you, I'm so sorry about that. I only had dial-up at my house until about a year or two ago. >v<'' Oh, and I usually tend to get on the game in the afternoons and evenings, usually on the weekends but recently more so during weekdays now that I'm on break. How about you?

GhostAlly In reply to MissPeridot [2014-05-14 08:51:39 +0000 UTC]

Well it tends to be pretty random for me. It works really well when it's really late but I've been trying to get into a better sleep pattern. What about this Saturday? Would you be able to be on then? I think if I plan ahead I can at least make sure I have a good few hours of internet.

Oh, I'm sorry, I totally understand the whole sleep pattern thing, I have the same problem a lot of the time. >v<'' Oh, and I sadly am going to be out of town this Saturday, but maybe next Saturday might work?

That's okay! Next Saturday will work just fine. That would be the 24th right?

MissPeridot In reply to GhostAlly [2014-05-19 05:07:35 +0000 UTC]

I do believe so! I'll double check to make sure we're not doing something on Saturday as well. I just figured out the other day that a close family friend is having her college graduation party this weekend and we might go up to visit them and stay at their cabin, I'll have to check to see what day that was now. I'm sorry that all this stuff keeps springing up! >_<'' I've been taking good care of the noibat I have for you in the mean time!

Aww, thank you so much, Sis!!!! TT.TT I am blessed to have a sister as kind, smart, witty, fun, AND talented as you! I actually was thinking of re-scanning this one. When trying to adjust the color saturation levels to make sure the scan looked like the original, I think I made it too dark in comparison to the actual drawing.
