#438 Bonsly and #185 Sudowoodo

I don't recall which came first: the decision to make Sudowoodo into a Hidebehind or the decision to turn the Hidebehind into one of these. Either way, there was a lot of hemming and hawing about whether to turn Sudowoodo's sprite into the Hidebehind itself or the tree. I thought it'd be really neat to make a biological being that had an anatomy that just coincidentally had the same size and shape as Sudowoodo. I did trial runs with both, and having it be the animal doesn't really work (to my knowledge): sprites are two-dimensional objects that exist in the plane, so hiding it behind a tree would mean (due to congruency) that it would just disappear. However, making a believable animal to stick behind the tree also proved difficult. I was doodling one day and started by drawing hands that'd be wrapped around the tree. I realized that I didn't need to construct the whole animal, just the parts that'd be seen. Hinting at the animal would probably be more interesting; I hope you agree. If these were in a game, I'm sure the PokeDex would make comments about how nobody knows how they really look, how they're often mistaken for shadows, etc.

Bonsly being a Baby Pokemon means it has a lot of weirdness innate to its design. The idea for this one is that Normaldex Bonsly are attracted to well-manicured bonsai and that nobody ever *asks* for one. Designing the animal for this one was what I tackled first and it was measurably easier to conceptualize and do than the "pot." I originally wanted it to be a lot more polygonal, but................. In fact, I wanted it to be anything but Bonsly's the whole time. I got so desperate, that I even used the bag sprites for incenses (It looked pretty dope, but the view was head-on rather than angled). I looked at pictures of actual bonsais and figured, y'know, stubby feet would probably be fine.

Bonsly's animal has parts from Smoochum and Happiny, and colors from Smoochum. It's pot is colored as Bronzor and that's where the stubs originate.

Sudowoodo's animal has parts from Aipom, Stantler, and Meowth. I wanted it to have countershading, so that's why the face is colored by Trubbish and the hands are colored by itself. The shiny version has Stantler's colors because I just really liked how it looked.

#453 Croagunk and #454 Toxicroak

I've been busy as all get out recently, but I'm happy to present Pilowog and Croakshanks.

"Pilowog use their thick insulating hairs to protect themselves against fluctuating temperatures. They also hide as rocks to avoid predators." Pilowog is based on the hairy frog, but without the abilities that gave them their Wolverine moniker. The red fingertips were kept as if to imply bones pressed against the skin, ready to escape. This sprite uses parts from Growlithe and Eevee, but the colors come from Pansage and Fearow.

"Croakshanks have large retractable claws they use for hunting, foraging, carving, and warding off predators and competitors. No two Croakshanks have been seen cohabitating." Croakshanks is based on the Wolverine frog, leaning into that aspect and shying away from the hair aspect. This sprite uses parts from Herdier, Kadabra, and Piloswine. Colors come from the same source.
