Artist's commentary
Sweet nature
There are plenty of weird pokémon. Some weirder than others. It may be easy for us to picture them in battle or being with a trainer, where they'll move, act and behave the way they do. What's harder to imagine, however, is their natural habitat. Particularly if you're a sentient icecream cone which may have the highest amount of predators possible. Obviously, not all pokémon was designed with proper ecology in mind, but just this once, I wanted to visualise how odd it would be to show highly aesthetic species in an environment they're supposed to live in. And, in the same vein, how nature runs its course.
This strip is somewhat different as the emphasis isn't contained within the last panel alone, and I've gotten many mixed responses to this strip already. So if you happen to not appreciate it, then it's my loss, not yours. And even though the strip may imply so, its purpose was not to beat down on Vanilluxe. I'd be happy if the comments could reflect the same.
