Common Errors with Mega Audino
I adore Mega Audino. I mean, clearly, I own this Tumblr, but something I have noticed frequently since its release is there are a few common errors to this day and I wanted to talk about them! Partially as a PSA, but also the Pokemon does not get a lot of love to begin with and some of those errors are included even on merch people make. I’ve made this list in order to most common to least common.

Note: Obviously if you want to make these adjustments for an OC Mega Audino of yours, do whatever you want! This just applies to when drawing a regular Mega Audino.
1. Mega Audino’s feelers. In the first official art we received, Mega Audino is holding one of its feelers, mimicking how Audino holds one of the ones from its ear:
While I have never seen anyone mess up with Audino, this has caused one of the most common mishaps with Mega Audino, people often draw it with one feeler longer:
It should never just hang down! If Mega Audino is pulling on it like in the official art, that’s fine! But otherwise, both look exactly the same:
And yes, either one can be pulled. So, in short:
2. Mega Audino is not completely white/light pink for its main color. While the creamy accent color is usually done right, a lot of the time people will make Audino either completely pink or completely white. While you can play around with the white color as it is a warmer shade and make it like a pale pink, it should never be the same colors as the accents unless certain lighting changes that.
3.Mega Audino’s eyes are a dark pink! Some people make it red (maybe for certain references), but they are actually a dark shade of pink:
4. The underside of Mega Audino’s cloak is pink! I’ve seen it the same color as its eyes and also the same color as the pink accents. It’s not White or Cream-colored:
5. Mega Audino’s ear feelers curl inward-- not outwards like Audino:
6. Similarly, both Mega Audino and Audino share a Heart-shaped Footprint, but they don’t face the same way! Mega Audino’s foot shows the heart properly when having it up facing forward with it upside down when having it up behind them:
Audino’s are the opposite way.
7. Mega Audino and Audino are actually very similar in size! The majority of the added height comes from Audino’s ears flipping upward upon Mega evolving:
That pretty much covers it. I hope this helps!!
(As a mileage may vary thing, Audino’s accent colors have been shown:
Pale pink to light pink to pale pink again
Pale pink to light pink
And both of those just as is or as a gradient. All seem to be correct.)
