What is this you may ask? Just a little fun endeavor I decided upon for myself, more or less to give me something to do in free time. Ok, so I think it's been pretty well established that I'm a bit... critical of a lot of Pokemon designs, especially later ones. Fact is there's a lot of Pokémon that I feel look shitty, new and old. Now not all of them are worth salvaging, some are just bad but others are concepts that I WANT to like, but they fail in execution; others fall into the category of being ones that I like, but like but in connection with the other evolutions they have in their set, they just don't look right by comparison. So I asked myself, "what would it take for me to like these Pokemon aesthetically?" and that's just what I did. I figured I'd quit the bitching and just make up how I'd like to envision these otherwise poor design choices. It's something I sort of started way back in October when I drew my own version of Shiftry https://inkbunny.net/submissionview.php?id=1206746 Of course, this is all objective. If you like these Pokemon normally that's fine, I don't cast judgment I'm just saying that this is how I want them to look... and I'm right-lol

Starting this out is the first Pokemon to come to mind when I did this; Persian. Meowth was and still remains one of my favorite Pokémon. Even without ties to his snarky anime equivalent, the Pokémon has a quirky, fun design that is filled with charm (metaphorically and literally given what it's based off) unfortunately this is utterly dropped the instant it evolves and it reverts into just 'cat'. What character it used to have is obliterated and it has always been the sore thumb to me because while I like Meowth, it's not very usable... Persian CAN be, but I dislike it too much to ever evolve Meowth (don't get me started on Alolan form either) So taking that into account I thought, how could I ramp up Persian? By keeping the sneaky flare Meowth has and increasing it. With a little reference to the Cheshire Cat as well as further influence from the Lucky Cats which Meowth is based on, I came up with something I really like. I figure the Alolan color scheme is best as just a shiny variant since both of those suck on their own. I'm really not sure what I'd do to convert an Alolan Persian to look less retarded and frankly I don't care. I'm fine with just this.
