A Gallery of Pokemon Reimagined
A little while ago, I brought you a gallery the claimed I’d found the “best Pokemon art I’ve ever seen,” and I still stand by that claim as those are exceptionally well done.
Well today, I’ve found a batch of pictures that gives those a run for their money. It’s from DeviantArtist SoupandButter, who decided it would be prudent to “reimagine” Pokemon in a more realistic, but still fantastical fashion.
I really like what he’s come up with here. Ranging from badass to disturbing to almost…tragic, these weird and wild creatures capture what the series could look like in a more adult universe, a place I’ve always wished it could go. Check them out below:
Arcanine
Bulbasaur
Chansey
Charmander
Cubone
Drowzee
Eevee
Gastly
Haunter
Lickitung
Mew
Nidoqueen
Oddish
Parasect
Pikachu
Poliwrath
Raichu
Sandslash
Togepi
Voltorb

Although these drawings are quite amazing, these real world Pokemon look quite…disturbing.
The Ghastly looks pretty creepy. My favorite one is Lickitung 🙂
If they looked like this they wouldn’t be caught for battling, they would be hunted down and shot!
These are epic
Wow, they did a great job of making them look really creepy, that said Haunter looks really awesome
Please keep posting Pokemon stuff. It is amazing…..If possible, though, stick with the original 151.
if Pokemon was done in this art style, I might have watched it instead of laughing at all the dorks trading pokemon cards at my school…. good memories…
I hope he does all of the Pokemon, even the new batch coming soon. A lot of them are disturbing. My favorite is the Ghastly. It’s perfect, and clearly ghost Pokemon are this artist’s style. (Also, is it too soon to say that the Eevee looks like Zelda Rubinstein? Well, too bad; it does.)
There’s no ‘h’ in Gastly…
Well, I sure hope the ‘h’ in Gastly doesn’t ruin your enjoyment of the message ’cause that would ruin everybody’s day.
raichu looks like a pedophile XDD
I’m not normally one for Pokemon posts, but this one was really good.
This was awesome. Loved Haunter.
Oh, these are brilliant, the artist did a wonderful job, I love his techniques!!!
Would kick so much ass if Raichu was doing the shocker…
The Arcanine, Hauntar and Nidoqueen were pretty badass.
The rest were just fuckin’ Disturbing.
why does raichu remind my of a stereotypical Scottish man?
Todos ascos.
I enjoyed the realism in each piece! Each has its own elements of intrigue! I especially enjoyed the gastly piece – I would not want to meet that in the dark!
they are all so ugly when drawn like that. I like them cute and cuddle
MAKE A MOVIEWITH POKEMON THAT LOOK LIKE THIS
