The Pokémon franchise is a gift that keeps on giving. This became even more obvious with a wholesome new animated series featuring Snorlax and Cubone.

The series, consisting of four short episodes, was created by Japanese 3D animation studio Polygon Pictures. It follows a unique friendship between two Pokémon monsters that couldn’t be more different. Snorlax is laid-back, enjoys naps, and isn’t always in the mood to do things that don’t involve resting or eating. Cubone, on the other hand, is energetic, jumpy, and always in the mood for some adventure.

Despite their differences, the two Pokémon manage to become best pals. They find joy in little things through the seasons, whether it’s making snowballs during winter or simply admiring nature’s awakening in the spring.

The Snorlax and Cubone animated series was first shared on social media as four separate episodes. The Pokémon Company now compiled all of the episodes into one video shared on YouTube. If you are a Pokémon fan, you need to watch it right away. If you are not, you should go ahead and check it out regardless because it is a relaxing and soothing watch.

Check out how Snorlax and Cubone formed their unlikely friendship below.

Dutch artist Jochum Van der Woude recently decided to embark on a unique challenge during which he plans to paint all 151 original Pokémon in Renaissance style. And judging by his first couple of artworks, the series promises to be really special.

Van der Woude announced the project several weeks ago on Reddit, where he’s known under u/Dingaantouwtje moniker. His post showed finished paintings of Pikachu and Bulbasaur and quickly got the attention of Pokémon fans.

Pikachu was shown with a cute red beret while Bulbasaur was donning a fancy white scarf. 

“I am working on 151 renaissance Pokemon paintings and haven’t seen my girlfriend since,” Van der Woude wrote in the post.

Other Reddit users loved Van der Woude’s paintings, with many expressing interest in purchasing his works.

“whoaaa love your style! I need all 151 framed on my wall!” one user commented.

Van der Woude took time to thank everyone for positive feedback, promising that all of his paintings would be available for purchase. He also plans to release a series of prints for everyone who misses out on the original artwork.

So far, Van der Woude completed Renaissance-style paintings of Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Lapras, and Chansey. He is currently putting the finishing touches on Psyduck as well.

Japanese iconic media franchise Pokémon has been an important part of pop culture in past decades, and as such, it served as an inspiration for countless artists. This is especially the case in its native Japan, where the Pokémon motifs and characters have found their way into the country’s traditional arts and crafts practices.

The Los Angeles-based Japan House is now bringing some of Pokémon arts and crafts to the United States through the upcoming POKÉMON X KOGEI exhibition. It is set to feature 70 Pokémon-inspired works in a wide range of techniques from 20 Japanese artists. This includes Jolteon sculptures made out of gold and silver-plated copper, impressive ceramic sculptures of Venosaur, Pikachu cups, and a number of textile artworks adorned with Pokémon monsters.

Backed by The Pokémon Company, the exhibition made its debut in Japan’s National Crafts Museum and was a huge success. It is now set to be displayed at Japan House from July 25, 2023, to January 7, 2024.

According to the official statement, some arts and crafts on display will be swapped out during the exhibition’s run in order to encourage visitors to return multiple times.

“While Pokémon and Japanese craft might seem like an unlikely pairing, there is an elemental connection between the two worlds. Just as there are distinct Pokémon types – such as Grass, Fire, Water, Ground, Steel, and Electric – most of Japan’s principal crafts are created with grass, fire, water, earth, and metal, and facilitated by electricity,” said Yuko Kaifu, President of JAPAN HOUSE.

Pokemon is one of the most recognizable pop-culture franchises in the world. No matter the age or location, almost everyone knows at least a few Pokemon monsters and can recognize Pikachu on the spot. Many of us even watched the show, saw the movies, or collected Pokemon cards going up.

Inspired by these cute characters, freelance artist Chey decided to start an interesting project which sees her creating humanized versions of Pokemons. She takes the defining traits of a Pokemon as a starting point and then lets her creativity guide her through the rest of the process.

The outcome is pretty fascinating, as you get the feeling that “Poke-humans” Chey creates could really be the embodiment of the creatures they are based on.

Any Pokemon lover will enjoy Chey’s imaginative takes on the characters. Check out more of her works below.

Artist Grey Edmonson is a mixed media illustrator who loves Pokémon. Starting February 2019 he began his Pokémon illustration series, classifying them based on their type. “Drawing an 18-piece series was a feat unlike any I’d attempted before, and it certainly stretched me as an artist,” Edmonson shared with Bored Panda. “It was a challenge to keep each composition fresh while also just desperately trying to make 12 characters fit on a page!”

Altogether, he drew 198 different Pokémon characters with their two trainers, each piece taking him around 10 hours to complete. “This series was born during my time at an office job, each piece was drawn with a mechanical pencil on copy paper from the printer, and I could not be more proud of the results,” he explained. “Now that my project is complete, I’m honestly not quite sure what to do with myself, but you can be sure I’ll keep drawing!”

Pokémon Type Project #9 – Dragon Type – August 2019 >> SWIPE through for close-ups! >> I guess he hasn’t gotten to the page where it says how important it is to ALWAYS BE WATCHING THE EGG- This piece… really tested my dedication to the series. I made a LOT of concepts before I was happy with one. Originally the dragons were all going to be taking a nap together in a cave with Manly nestled in amongst them, but having all those BIG Pokémon laying down took up a lot of space and I had to draw it as if the viewer was standing far away just to get everyone to fit on the page. The resulting scene looked cramped and did not at all match the proportions established in the rest of the series. Much like the design struggle with Psychic type, deciding to scrap the concept I’d fought so hard for felt like a lost battle. However, the fresh slate was freeing and the end result was a victory of its own. I guess I’m still learning that holding on too tight to something that just isn’t working seldom pays off in the creative process! Has there been a time you’ve had to retreat a smaller battle to win a bigger one?
