Pokemon Rainbow & Gray 🌈👽

#386 Deoxys

I chose to go with the drawing done by Mina Nakai, and while the background I used marker on paper, the Pokemon itself I crocheted! I wanted to make something inspired by two of my favorite Pokemon crochet artists, Pokemon TCG's Asako Ito, and our very own @dailypokemoncrochet here on tumblr!

The whole pattern was free handed, so it took me a while to figure out how to make the ears and the leaf propellers. I got there in the end, though! Loved seeing all the other redraw entries, glad I could finally add my own to the 'dex! :)

I illuminated this medieval manuscript inspired Smeargle for @poketcg-art's Pokedex redraw collab, based on the Neo Discovery card by Hironobu Yoshida. See the original card art below the cut!
