A Pokemon fan created a claymation showcasing one of the series' Poison-Types, Koffing. There are many forms of artwork featuring Nintendo's creatures, including different types of animated videos. Fans have been making Pokemon animations for some time, creating amazing pieces dedicated to the franchise.
Koffing was first introduced in Pokemon Red and Blue. It is one of the first Poison-Type creatures to be introduced in the series along with its evolution Weezing. The pocket monster was the main member of James' team in the Pokemon anime and was featured in a number of episodes. The artist has created an impressive claymation starring Koffing, showing a bit of love for the Poison-Type.
A Redditor named LazyLauy posted a short animated clip that they made of Koffing. The video shows the Pokemon floating in the air, which has the smile and skull and crossbones on its stomach that help to define it. Gasses are blowing out of the pocket monster as it inhales and exhales, giving the creature a sense of liveliness. The claymation is amazing and is a nice piece of artwork for fans of the Pokemon series to enjoy.
LazyLauy's animation is being well-received. One fan called the claymation delightful, while another said that it is awesome. A Redditor mentioned that they do not think the piece was actually created using clay due to the vertex distortion that can be seen on the clouds that Koffing is blowing out. Despite this, they stated that LazyLauy's work is still very pretty and well-made. The animation does look great, and it is nice to see a Pokemon from the original 151 still receiving love and attention despite being over 25 years old.
The Koffing claymation that LazyLauy created is just one of many animated pieces that fans of Game Freak's RPGs have created. A Redditor known as BobblaKei made a piece featuring Klawf from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet done in the Generation 5 art style. The clip features the pocket monster set against a turquoise background moving up and down slightly as if breathing. The artist did a good job of converting the creature's original 3D design into a 2D style, as it does look like it could originate from Pokemon Black and White. Many characteristics that can be associated with Klawf were captured, including its bulging eyes and the fur-like tufts coming out at different points of its body.
Both LazyLauy and BobblaKei did good jobs of showing gamers various pocket monsters in mediums that fans would not normally see them in, resulting in awesome pieces to delight in.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will release on November 18 for the Nintendo Switch.
