@Pareidolia: I think that was supposed to be a reference to Dustin Hoffman's line from Midnight Cowboy. I guess that would make the Pidgeotto the male prostitute.

Hmm, part of me now wants to see the ending scene of Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman on the bus to Florida reenacted with the cast of Mokepon. Perhaps an alternate ill-fated ending to Stein and Elle's escape to Cinnabar Island sans the more explicit content of the film? Kinda like that mashup picture of Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and St. Elsewhere.

Digital you say? Kinda reminds me of a cleaned up oil pastel or charcoal drawing. Not sure about action scenes, but this seems really appropriate for depicting flash backs. Or perhaps the post battle scenes of big fights where it focuses on the trainers surveying the aftermath. You know, pages where a lot of strong emotions has to be condensed to a few panels and time takes on a more intangible quality (i.e. cheering/crying scenes after the big battle is won/lost). Definitely good for chapter ending scenes with the characters walking off into the sunset and such, or dramatically entering the gym for a final showdown.

Maybe I'm just being greedy, but I also would've liked those zoomed out shots of DT and Bob staring down each other at the end to have taken up the full width of the page for added emphasis and to have gone on for more than two panels to lengthen the tension (e.g. if this were a printed comic then the first five panels would make up the left page and the zoomed out shadowy panels would take up the majority of the right). To me, the new art style really does a good job of depicting those standoff panels.

Out of curiosity, is Atty a fan of Foreigner? 'Cause that was Cold as Ice!

My guess? We see Onyx's tail slam into DT from the same panel angle as when she was a charmander. Then it cuts to a panel of Atty and George looking shocked, and Stein and Elle looking ecstatic. Onyx lifts its tail slowly to show a flattened DT... only to reveal a large hole in the ground.

Or DT just catches to tail with both hands and pushes Onyx back. I'm still going to push the "DT used Dig!" agenda at every opportunity I get.

Aaaaand the velociraptor-like pokemon knows how to open doors. Great.

What's not shown here though is the previous scene where DT ambushed a Bob Peck lookalike right outside the gym while Laura Dern left to turn on the lights.

What, no 'Dancing in the Moonlight' or "Fly Me to the Moon'?

At some point in the story Atty should acquire a black beret and perpetually full cup of coffee, he's already got the smoking, drawing, and sour outlook on life down.

@MilaMiya: C'mon you guys, don't leave Caravaggio and Richard Dadd out in the cold too.

3 to 1 odds he's catching up on Top Gear on an iPhone, iPad, iTablet, or the latest Pokemon equivalent. Or, y'know, he's reading a Pokemon-for-Dummies booklet. Let's hope he's not getting all emo and self-reflective on us by reminiscing or *gasp* keeping a journal.

(Yet Another) Happy Birthday!

Yeah, Circle of Life started playing through my head as soon as I saw the birds enter the frame. I suppose somewhere out there there is also a wild Houndour or Poochyena eating some Meowth roadkill right outside a major city. It's these kinds of things that make Cubone's back story downright ghastly when you stop to think about it...

So they suspect the local gym leader over the fact that the forest was a poorly maintained tinderbox full of old dried leaves and rotting wood populated by flammable insects and electric rats?

Well alright I guess. It's a better back story than being kidnapped by an eagle and raised as its young before eating her and crawling back to civilization.

Wait a tick, isn't that the landscaper with the lawnmower (who I also suspect might have been the masked jerk) from earlier?

Edit: NVM, rechecked Chapter 2 and the guy clearly lacks a chin stripe.
