Description     So I've made my decision on this, I will be going through with the plan and this picture is the last promotional image to show this off and will also be Chapter 1's cover art. This depicts several things I will go over, first we get to see the art style for various characters, including Red who i think looks way better here. Unlike before, all the Pokemon Red will be using are being shown now. With the exception of Charizard and Jolteon (who are plot relevant), the team has been completely changed. Another thing I am considering changing is how the fight goes down, in the original, Red fought the way you do in the games, one at a time, however I have considered doing more of a battle royal sot of thing where he will be battling with Mewtwo using multiple Pokemon at the same time, sending them all out over a period of time. I think that would make the fights more interesting, vary them more from the original and it will also help illustrate how powerful Mewtwo is actually supposed to be in the comic. I haven't choreographed the fight yet so i don't know for sure if that is what I will do, but I am considering it. That would also likely shorten chapter 1 as well, so you wouldn't have to wait as long for chapter 2 as well. I had a lot of fun working on this picture and I hope it shows. Please enjoy and let me know what you think!!!

*For those curious the attacks on display are:
Houndoom is using Dark Pulse
Scizor is preparing to execute Bullet Punch
Charizard is using Fire Blast
Dragonite is preparing Hyper Beam
Jolteon and Alakazam are both using Thunderbolt together.
Mewtwo is performing an Amensia shield

Awesome! Mewtwo even looks like he's saying "Do you really think you're worthy to command me?!!".

Thanks. Yeah Mewtwo sees Red as being naive, he is the one to coin the Rose Analogy later.

Rose Analogy?

In the story, Mewtwo claims Red is naive, easy to trick and manipulate because he only sees good in people and is unable to see ill intent. He explains this with an analogy, "When you see a rose bush, all you see are roses, never the thorns."

Which story, is it that terrible Pokemon manga?

Not sure what manga you're talking about. It's the one I'm writing, this image is a promotional for the reboot for it.

Was talking about the manga series Pokemon Adventures, which has so many stupidly implemented creative liberties with the games that it becomes utter trash.

I wouldn't know, I read it when I was a kid but I don't recall much about it. I don't have them anymore either.

I'd say you're better off with watching Pokemon Generations, an anime mini-series that's much more faithful to the games.

Thank you so much! I'm not sure when this will officially start, as I still need to choreograph the fight but should be fairly soon.

I love using Scizor bullet punch when battling personally, so it'll be cool to see how it goes over in the comic.

I do too, Bullet Punch is pretty much a must with Scizor. He will indeed be using it in the battle.

It's amazing to see how much you've grown as an artist.
The poses, expressions, everything. The first things that caught my eye were the smaller details, like all the joints in Charizard's wings, Houndoom's very realistic paws, ect.

Great work

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! I know I've talked about this before, but I can consider fan work to be the best learning tool you can use, learn to be a better writing, artist, etc by doing it. I doubt I would have been willing to try a piece like this two or three years ago but I was able to do it today.
