Merry Christmas! How about drawing a couple Undertale characters as Pokemon trainers?

aviarei:

This one was actually really fun, trying to figure out which Pokemon should go on their teams. I did Papyrus and Sans.

For Sans I picked:

1. Duskull. Come on. Just look at it. It’s got a bone motif on its’ back, a skull face and only one eye/iris/pupil (that switches from eye to eye but is usually seen in the left eye).

2. Shedinja. This particular Pokemon only has 1 HP. It’s invincible, however, unless it’s hit by a move that’s super-effective against it.

3. Celebi. Celebi is known as the “Time Travel” Pokemon, something that seemed to fit the idea around Sans supposedly having time-traveled himself.

4. Slakoth. Not only was Sans too lazy to evolve it into Slaking, but Slakoth is also one of the laziest Pokemon ever, and even has what was once a move unique to it and its’ evolved form, Slack Off, where it would literally Slack Off and regain half of its’ HP.

5. Minun. Its’ color scheme fit Sans better of the two partner Pokemon (Minun and Plusle), and its’ theme of “minus” is synonymous with one of the meanings of the word “Sans”, “without”. His favorite to use in Team Battles with Papyrus’ Plusle.

For Papyrus I picked:

1. Marowak. Okay. Like. It’s called “The Bone Keeper Pokemon”, and it’s holding a bone. What more do you want.

2. Sunflora. Based on his friendship with Flowey. Papyrus decided to nickname his Sunflora “Flowery”.

3. Togekiss. This Pokemon only evolves when its’ “Friendship” or happiness stat is raised to a certain level, and its’ Platinum Pokedex description says “

It shares many blessings with people who respect one another’s rights and avoid needless strife.” which is also something Papyrus would do.

4. Victini. Known as the “Victory Pokemon”. According to the Pokedex, “This Pokémon brings victory. It is said that Trainers with Victini always win, regardless of the type of encounter.” It seemed fitting for Papyrus!

5. Plusle. Not only is Papyrus’ brimming with positivity, but Plusle also matches his color scheme out of the Pokemon pair of Plusle and Minun. He likes to use it in Team battles with Sans.
