Artist's Comments

I meant to do shading, but I couldn't get Gimp to work. So, this was all done in MS Paint. It was hellish. Once I get Gimp working, I'll probably go back and shade. But maybe not.

:iconpcbc:

Yeah, so this is for the PCBC tournament, although it's actually for next years one, because I only found out about the tournament, like, six days after it had closed applications. Bummer, but I guess it's probably a good thing, what with all the assignments I've got going. Hell, I shouldn't even really be doing this, but... well.

Drawing Pokemon is really difficult.

She looks like a nerd/hobo, minus the smarts a nerd should have. Perfect.

I haven't done the intro comic required to join yet, but I will eventually.

WARNING! Wall of almighty text ahead!

Name: Oku
Gender: Female (well, I should hope that would be obvious)
Age: 17 (or, at least she will be when the next tournament starts... long wait)
Height: 5'8"
Hometown: Fortree City

Personality: A weirdie whose intelligence is like lightning. One brilliant flash, and it's gone. Same with her angry-ness. She gets angry a lot, but gets over it very quickly. It's like "roaaaar-okay, done". Mostly gets angry when people assume she's a hobo. Which she totally isn't. <.< >.> Is lazy, and tends to zone off mid-conversation. Goes out of her way to be dramatic, particularly with entries, although it often comes off as silly and full of Narm. But trying to be dramatic is the main reason she rides a Swalot around instead of walking.

Background: Born in Fortree, the fact that she would often fall out of the treehouses or off the bridges there, often injuring her head in the process, is often attributed to her lack of intelligence. However, it is unknown whether this is true, or whether she is just naturally so.
Ended up leaving Fortree and visiting various cities, trying to find a job that she wouldn't lose. On the way, a stray Poliwag made its way into her bag and ate all her food. They became best friends after she got over the loss of her food.
Despite her inability to hold a job, she seems to be skilled at Pokemon battles, probably because it's a straightfoward thing (essentially, get your Pokemon to beat the crud out of the other Pokemon), and it's nearly impossible to get completely fired from. Seems to be good at improvising, indeed, her whole strategy when it comes to Pokemon is 'I'll just wing it'. However, she has a habit of confusing her Pokeballs and forgetting which types are good against what (not the really obvious ones, like water beats fire and thunder beats flying, more like the ones like ice is good against dragons and such).

Pokemon

Clapper the Politoed
Type: Water
Gender: Male
Ability: Water Absorb.
Nature: Jolly
Moves: Rain Dance, Perish Song, Hyper Voice, Bubblebeam
Clapper was Oku's first Pokemon, caught quite accidentally as a Poliwag (it took a nap in her bag, and she didn't realise it was in there until it ate all her food. And Oku was most displeased). A cheerful bugger who seems to enjoy singing and dancing, and will often continue to do so at the most inappropiate of times i.e when the others are trying to sleep. Incidentally, the only time Oku makes his go into his Pokeball is at night, when he's been singing and dancing too much and too loudly.

Baklava the Misdreavus
Type: Ghost
Gender: Female
Ability: Levitate
Nature: Quirky
Moves: Shadow Ball, Pain Split, Confuse Ray, Power Gem
Baklava tried to scare the party when they were trying to sleep in a cave, because it was bored. And in that it suceeded. But then it got caught. Baklava is an odd, cheeky ghost, and doesn't seem to like the colour red, and has often tried to throw away Oku's shoes and bandanna for that reason.

Swaggy the Kabuto
Type: Rock/Water
Gender: Female
Ability: Swift Swim
Nature: Calm
Moves: Surf, Mega Drain, Mud Shot, Ancient Power.
Oku found a Dome Fossil and, just thinking it was a coolly pattered rock, carried it around for ages without realising what it was. Eventually, someone told her what it was and she took it to one of those labratories that bring things back to life. Swaggy is quite calm, and is often lazy. Often, it has the habit of crawling onto Oku's hat for a nap.

Nom the Swalot
Type: Poison
Gender: Male
Ability: Liquid Ooze
Nature: Lax
Moves: Gunk Shot, Body Slam, Attract, Swallow
Nom once came across Oku's bag and ate it, and was subsequently beaten up by Clapper in an effort to get it to spit up the bag. The bag was lost, but Oku captured it because she thought it would be good to ride around on. Honestly, walking is probably faster, but riding a Swalot looks so much more dramatic. Or silly. A little from column A, a little from column B. Nom is very relaxed and never loses its temper, and doesn't seem to mind ferrying people around, although if he sees anything interesting, particularly food, he will go off after it. Has a very large appetite, as is typical of its species.
Usually wears that ugly-ass blanket on his head, particularly when Oku is sitting on him, mostly so she doesn't get slime on her butt.

Kutte the Vulpix (I think a kutte is some kind of vest worn by bikers)
Type: Fire
Gender: Male
Ability: Flash Fire
Nature: Rash
Moves: Flamethrower, Energy Ball, Mimic, Fire Spin.
Kutte is one of the most violent, bad-tempered, in-your-face Pokemon you could ever have the misfortune to come across. It was acquired in a trade with a biker, in exchange for a Hitmonlee. Who the hell knows why it even listens to Oku, because it doesn't listen to anyone else. Maybe Kutte just likes the fact that it's smarter than the trainer. Kutte likes getting into fights, and as such appears much more ragged than a regular Vulpix. Kutte is the only Pokemon kept in an Ultra Ball, as he was caught by someone else.

Pillow the Altaria
Type: Flying/Dragon
Gender: Female
Ability: Natural Cure
Nature: Naive
Moves: Sky Attack, Dragon Breath, Substitute, Mist
Pillow was 'caught' when one of Oku's Pokeballs rolled out of her pockets, and the silly bird headbutted it out of curiousity, which caused the Pokeball to catch it. Pillow is... not very smart. Indeed, she's probably the only Pokemon in the party who is dumber than the trainer. Often used as a pillow, hence its namesake, nonetheless Pillow is a helluva fighter when it needs to be, as long as someone is telling it what to do.

:iconokusurei:
Well, someone else found out about it too late, and the PCBC said 'it's too late to enter this years, but very early to make a reference for next year'. So, I assume so.
:iconokusurei:
My hand didn't cramp during the text. It cramped like hell during the colouring, though. Stupid Paint.
:iconakina-sa:
