Long time no post! Reuploading my 2024 zine piece for Route 63 Vol. 1, with the theme "Pokemon in the Philippines".

I wanted to depict a piece of my childhood, and something that always felt so "Filipino" to me is "Buwan ng Wika" held every August in schools in the Philippines to celebrate local culture.
Here's a bunch of the Pokemon protagonists doing a "Sabayang Pagbigkas" performance. Can you guess the irl reference why they were chosen? 🤔
