My Favorite Pokemon of Each Type: Day 18(Fairy)

disclaimer: Togekiss is my favorite Fairy type, but i already drew her for day 5, so i drew my second favorite instead.

 

i liked Spritzee when i first saw her, she was undeniably cute, but i didn’t think of her as anything too special. until, that is, i read about how people thought she was inspired by plague doctors. plague doctors would keep perfumes in their masks to help keep the smell of dead bodies out, and Spritzee is tied to perfume, as well as her face resembling one of their masks greatly. this made me appreciate Spritzee more, because while she was a very cute Pokemon, she had an origin rooted in rather creepy things, and that was interesting to me. plus she looked a bit like a flamingo, and flamingos are really cool. it made me very excited to see what she would evolve into with all that potential, and what do we get?…

 

one of the most hideous, uninspired Pokemon designs ever, at least in my book. i was so sad that they just threw away all the great potential with plague doctors and whatnot and gave us some abomination that didn’t even remotely resemble a bird anymore. i might go as far as to say that Aromatisse might be my very least favorite Pokemon ever, because even though there might be some designs i like less, they just tossed anything that made Spritzee remotely interesting out the window. but i guess that’s neither here nor there.

 

and with that, this little series is over. so i ask, did you guys enjoy this? would you be interested in seeing something similar in the future? what was your favorite drawing of mine?

 

random statistics:

no. of Poekmon from gen 1: 0

no. of Pokemon from gen 2: 0

no. of Pokemon from gen 3: 4

no. of Pokemon from gen 4: 3

no. of Pokemon from gen 5: 6

no. of Pokemon from gen 6: 5

favorite drawing result: Snorunt and Cofagrigus(tied)

least favorite drawing result: Crawdaunt

favorite Pokemon to draw: Zygarde

least favorite Pokemon to draw: Deoxys

 

just realized that none of my favorites come from gen 1 or 2, which is strange because i do like a lot of gen 1 and 2 Pokemon. oh well(inb4 “the original Pokemon were the best though”).

The thing with g1/2 is the pokemon are, on average, good, but they're not GREAT. Not like later generations, with more room for gimmicks, more complex designs, future mechanics to work off of, etc etc etc.

 

I did really enjoy this, even if you did get Steel and Psychic 100% wrong by not putting Metagross in as at least an honorable mention =P

I love Spritzee. I also love Aromatisse, though I agree that it wasn't really what I expected from a Spritzee evolution. I think it's a cool pokemon on its own right, though, and I kind of like the silly connection between the two. (Spritzee is kind of a flamingo-looking thing, whereas Aromatisse could be farfetch'dly be said to resemble a of flamenco-dancer-looking thing). Either way, Spritzee's is definitely one of my favorite lines from Gen VI.

 

My favorite Fairy is Mawile, but she's also my favorite Steel type. I think Whimsicott would take her place instead.

i'll admit i was extreeeeeemely close to putting Metagross on the honorable mentions list for those, but in the end i just didn't. we can call him an honorable mention honorable mention. =P
