Description Thanks for all your votes on my most recent poll guys, I wanted to know so I knew which one to draw more and what designs/concepts were appealing to you for future fakemon creation ^^
This unnamed water starter has the lead and I don't think that's going to change, so I dub it the winner. To be honest I would have NEVER expected this thing to win, I thought it was too unoriginal and it hasn't gone through even development, considering I came up with it in Algebra class just last week =v=; But I'm really happy you like it! That's not to say some things won't change still. . .

I thought Faylectrik was going to win just because that's the one people have drawn most so I thought you liked it. Spirei and Lunerei are my favorites because I love their concept and story and such (Which I never really told you =v=; ) but I don't think I draw them enough. . . I feel more comfortable drawing them on paper.

Poor Masqoon and Joyro only got one vote each. . . Wonder why, is it because the quality of the art? Because I didn't want you to vote on that ^_^; I plan to do updated drawings for both of them soon anyways.

So if you voted, could you please tell me why you voted for which fakemon if you didn't already do so? I must know, really, it helps me out X3;

As for the design of this one, everyone makes a starter set, so I wanted to be a little different at least and thus a cat water type was born! It's kind of ironic, no? There actually are cats in the world that like swimming -shot- Anyways, since I was a little kid I've been drawing cat water starters believe it or not and they've always had something to do with bubbles, just carrying on the tradition.

And also don't forget to comment about this piece, even if I only spent like 1 and a half hour to 2 hours on it =v=;

I wish this Pokemon was real. If it was, it would definitely be one of my top favourites. Your designs are so good. Adorable picture, too.

But that's already been tried, and with a masterball, it doesn't work D8

Of course, it's a starter so you can count on two evolutions, as for what they are, I don't have the slightest clue yet, I'll get to desingning them eventually =v=;

Remember, just because all the other are better doesn't mean something's bad! It just means it's the worst. 8DDD Like I said, I drew them all myself so I would vote based on design, but then I clicked on this guy and was like 'OMG -vote-.' I'm sorry. =w=;;;
Trust me, this design is unique, I mean a water cat automatically gets creativity points and the design's simple to boot 8D About the picture itself, it's so adorable, I love all those little highlights! and the background is so spotty and the way you've sort of made it smaller than the fakemon is really effective >w<
dkjfhjskda such a huge comment.

I know your story >D And we already made peace about that I thought, you know, remember the whole "You're just like I me, I always accidentally choose the most popular one" conversation? Yeah =v= Besides, there's nothing wrong with it, honesty is more important. . . Most of the time :3

And that simplicity is what I don't like about this, that's why I was so worried it wouldn't make a good fakemon, because it doesn't have enough . . . You know. . . Stuff? Upon searching for water fakemon (When I found that 'not SpongeBob pic lDDD ) I didn't find any other cats so I'm happy <3

Huge comment is good for a huge artist's comment
And to me it seems like you really read everything I wrote, which I appreciate <3

I forgot about that. |DDD; /shot'd
And details schmetails, I remember reading somewhere that if something has less detail, people are more inclined to look at it? And besides this way you can save all the fancy parts for its evolutions.
all part of the job =w= <3

Faylectrik still my favorute but this is cute too X3 I liked Faylectrik's desing and I voted for it.
A blue background will be better for this.

Actually you'd be surprised, when I try putting blue BG's with this, it ends up being too much blue and I've found that this shade of red is best. . .
Glad to hear you like Faylectrik though, that was basically my first fakemon ever XD
Thanks <3

X3 Yup, it's got a bubble over the tip of it's tail, I tried to show that but I'm inexperienced with shading bubbles
If you want to catch it so bad, just go for it lD

They were all good, there were just a few. I'll have to look at them again. I would agree that the racoon one was just, not as good. Not that it's bad.

I promise to redraw that one soon, I know that picture is really bad, I mean, the face is so . . . Yeah XD; I think it'll be a little more pleasing with better anatomy XD; Thanks for the opinion though, like I said, it helps <33
