A Pokemon fan creates impressive painting of Kyogre swimming with other Water-types, showing a more docile side of the legendary Pokemon.
The artist teases upcoming artwork, including depictions of Groudon and Rayquaza. A talented Pokemon enthusiast has crafted a remarkable painting featuring Kyogre swimming alongside fellow Water-types. Engaging with fellow gamers, the artist also drops hints about their future artistic endeavors.
Kyogre, the box-art legendary of Pokemon Sapphire and Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, is a rare and powerful creature. In these games, the evil Team Aqua seeks to use Kyogre's power to create never-ending rainfall and flood the world. Once their plans are foiled, players have the opportunity to catch and use this "Sea Basin Pokemon" in battles and contests. Kyogre has also made appearances in other recent games like Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, thanks to the use of Pokemon Home. Conversely, Groudon takes on the role of the version-exclusive legend in Pokemon Ruby and Pokemon Omega Ruby.
An artist named Lilystrations shared a rendition of Kyogre on Reddit. In this artwork, Kyogre's signature colors of red, white, and blue are complemented by other underwater companions like Remoraid, Mantyke, Magikarp, and even Seaking. Similarly, another artist created an image of Lanturn as a Legendary Pokemon swimming alongside underwater fish. The surface water illuminates the scene with yellow rays of light, directed towards The Pokemon Company's killer whale. The artwork effectively portrays Kyogre's immense size and movement through the presence of numerous bubbles and dynamic body language.
Despite being one of the most powerful Legendary Pokemon in terms of stats, Kyogre displays a more peaceful and gentle demeanor. Its expression remains neutral, and its eyes exude tranquility, indicating its protective nature, akin to the humble Magikarps. Surrounding fish Pokemon appear unaffected by Kyogre's presence, continuing to swim in the same direction.
Reddit users expressed their admiration by upvoting the post and leaving supportive comments for this rendition of Kyogre. One individual, in particular, appreciated the intricate details of the water's texture, which Lilystrations aptly described as water caustics. Others were delighted to witness Kyogre receiving more attention from fellow fans of the legendary Pokemon, especially considering the abundance of other powerful Water-type Pokemon in the games.
Lilystrations hinted that this artwork marks the beginning of their Hoenn journey. They mentioned that they have already finished works featuring the legendary Pokémon Groudon and Rayquaza, which will be shared on Reddit at a later date. Additionally, other artists are also showing their love for Hoenn, including one who has designed human-like versions of the Treecko family. While Lilystrations continues their work-related travels, they will be posting numerous artworks online for fans to appreciate.
