My tribute to Unsho Ishizuka, the voice of professor Okido/Oak, the narrator, and many others in Pokemon and anime in general, who recently passed away. Your work will never be forgotten, Ishizuka-san, may you rest in peace.

IT CANT EVEN KEEP UP. I’M DEAD SOMEONE PLEASE HELP THIS WORM

PICK IT UP OR SOMETHING AM I GOING TO HAVE TO SPEND THE WHOLE GAME CONSTANTLY SLOWING DOWN SO I DON’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE GUILT OF LEAVING MY DEFENSELESS WORM BEHIND ME???

Pokemon Character Designers and What Pokemon they designed/helped design! 

Ken Sugimori is one of the most well known names involved with the art and design of Pokemon, but he was never the only one making them! Pokemon as a whole is a huge collaborative effort, and its fun to see who put what pieces into the the 807+ piece puzzle we have today! Maybe you’ll learn something new about some of your favorite Pokemon?

This is not at all a comprehensive list, there are several more designers that have worked on Pokemon over the years and a majority of Pokemon we simply do not know the original designer of! The Pokemon that we do know the designer of that I haven’t listed here can be found at this source: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:Altruis/List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_their_designers
