the Pokemon TCG Illustration contest posted their 300 quarter-finalists; I didn’t make the cut, but that means I can share my submissions!
Image description
A submission for the 2024 Pokemon TCG Illustration contest. The image depicts a relaxed looking Feraligatr largely submerged in water, with only the tops of its arms and its head poking out. Much like a wild crocodile, it has its mouth open for little birds to help clean its teeth. The little birds in this picture are Fletchlings which sit on Feraligatr's jaws and head. Some fletchlings are even napping on Feraligatr, implying the large Pokemon is a safe and friendly beast.
