The typhlosion line was one that I've been thinking about for a little bit, and I wanted to redo it as the last time I drew it was all the way over 202..3? 4? I don't remember anymore lul.

I wanted to push both the badger and echidina/tenrec aspects of the line more. I was happy with my first sketches, the idea of the fire coming from specific stripes on the neck and replacing the characteristic badger stripe. Quilava and Cyndaquil were a bit of afterthoughts, but I already had some ideas for them. I don't have studies to showcase this time, because i already studied mustelids a while ago separatedly haha
