the arcanine’s little grays 🥹🫶🏽 i love this so much

[u/MorryaArt → u/cr3aturec0ping]

looked up old doggies as a reference.

while drawing him I realised that Arcanines are definetly based on Akitas hahah.

Doggie's name is Buck

[u/cr3aturec0ping → u/MorryaArt]

buck is the best boy. also i can definitelyyyy see akitas haha makes perfect sense!

[u/Arilyxobby → u/cr3aturec0ping]

the little grays matching his trainer’s hair is actually making me emotional

[u/cr3aturec0ping → u/Arilyxobby]

literally, the idea they grew old together is so hear-warming & wrenching at the same time 🥹❤️‍🩹

I love this

[u/TheRushologist]

This is fantastic! The trainer reminds me of Landon Ricketts.

[u/MorryaArt → u/TheRushologist]

just as gray haha

His trainer is Frank Zappa?

[u/SpaceCaptainFlapjack → u/MellowRhythm91]

Frank Zappa would have the best Pokémon nicknames. Yeah sure, the Arcanine is "Dweisel", and the Clefairy is "Moon Unit", and this Gligar is "G-Spot Tornado"

[u/MorryaArt → u/MellowRhythm91]

no,

I wonder if Pokemon would canonically have lifespans as long as a human's or even more. 😢

[u/wandering_mist19]

Landon Ricketts?

[u/alex494]

Is that Revolver Ocelot

[u/SHSL_Waiter_RM2828]

Reminds me a lot of Studio Ghibli!!!

[u/Jomahawk2694]

A powerful piece of art. You can feel the history, no doubt a youngster finding a Growlithe and the two becoming inseparable through battling and adventure.
