So, not only yesterday was Popplio's day meaning it got a ton of fan art, but Primarina was featured again in the One Hour Drawing hashtag on Twitter which made the day even better.

Some Japanese artists on twitter planned to post a bunch of Popplio fanart on that day. Kind of like how they drew Prima for Mother's day.

Popplio is #728 on the Pokedex so fans decided to make a bunch of art for Popplio on the 28th of July.
This is the hashtag for Popplio's day: #アシマリの日
This is the one for the one hour drawing group where Primarina got featured yesterday: #ポケモン版深夜の真剣お絵描き60分一本勝負

>>33150768
The Mother's Day thing wasn't planned, it was just Primarina coincidentally being featured on an art hashtag with randomly selected Pokemon on that same day.

It's a ton of pictures but I'll try. I didn't think a Pokemon could be featured twice in the One Hour Drawing thing, or at least not so soon. That was a really nice surprise.

I think once Sun/Moon came out the selection became weighted towards Gen 7 mons to encourage more art of the new guys, so a lot of them have been featured twice by now.

I have to go now, I'll post more when I get back.

....The Popplio line is based on sea lions hence the seperated flippers. WAIT is there fan art of Primarina walking how a sea lion would?! XD oml using those arms and back tails to walk on all fours just seems ridiculous :p

That what the runnining animation should have been, not swimming in the air.

Oh yeah, I can definitely see that, especially with the Brionnefags on this board. My more casual friends and most fans I've seen on other sites seem to adore Brionne in a way similar to how girls adore princesses, or at least that's how I saw it. Then again, the people I'm talking about are all women and gay men

Being perfectly honest, I'm not too fond of most art the line gets full stop, just not one for "pretty and cute" in general. That's my problem though, as long as everybody else can enjoy them I'm fine.

Now I'm curious, which one of these are you? No dumb intra-starterwars. Did you

1. See Popplio as male first but now see the line as girls and do you also call Primarina your waifu
2. See Popplio as male and still see the line as male and do you also call Primarina your "gay prince"
3. See Popplio as male and still see it as that while seeing Brionne and Primarina as female
4. Not have any gender in mind for Popplio and still feel the same about the whole line
5. Not have any gender in mind for Popplio but changed that after seeing the whole line
6. See Popplio as female but now see the line as males

Somewhere between 3 and 5, Brionne and Primarina look totally female but I don't think much about gender for Popplio unless the art obviously indicates it, it's just "something cute."

I love the idea of goofy Primarina but the fanart where Primarina is 'goofy' never really make me feel anything except for that comic with the liquid voice joke and maybe pic related(though I like it mostly because I think it's cute).

I think it's usually just projection based on assumptions made from their appearances. Literally none of Primarina's official descriptions hint at anything about its personality. Though I've actually seen fans complain that Primarina's personality isn't specified, while others complain it has a set personality. You can't please everyone I guess.

Fuck, are you me. I generally don't mind cute art, I approve it even but the whole bow/frills/clothes obsession everyone's had ever since the latter evolutions came and the dire need to cute-fy and make Popplio "pretty" became kinda unsettling for me.

To think everyone had a raging hate boner towards Popplio (I never approved that shit) while the rest drew pretty neutral looking stuff for it (most of it was clown/circus stuff though since it was before the reveal).

>>33157866
Not saying you're wrong, but I don't understand what's unsettling about it other than when the artist is known for drawing some creepy shit? A lot of the artists who do the "pretty bows and frills" thing are women who simply like that kind of stuff. They do the same thing to Primarina too, so I always saw it as the equivalent to a girl dressing up her doll in cutesy things because that's she likes. People already do that with Primarina and Brionne, so what's wrong with letting Popplio in on it? It still gets way more fanart where it looks "neutral" anyway. You can tell just by looking at all the new art in this thread.

Also, can you point to 3 non-Japanese fanartists who do this with Popplio? I don't think I've ever seen this trend among western artists, it's usually just Japanese artists for some reason(maybe different values?) and I don't know, maybe it seems like this big thing in the fanbase because it's mostly Japanese fanart that gets posted here?

>>33160564
On top of that, most of the artists who draw Popplio that way do and did the same for a lot of other Pokemon too anyway. Eeveeolutions, Alolan Vulpix and other cute 'mons come to mind. The cute Alolan Vulpix picture/gif that often gets posted here on /vp/ was made by the same artist who made the image you posted, for example. I can absolutely understand someone for not liking that type of art, I just don't get why the anon you replied to has that problem exclusively with Popplio. Well, I do get it, but whatever. I like all kinds of Popplio.

Not the Anon you replied to, but the problem I have with it is that it didn't start happening until the evolutions became official. There was a complete shift in the overall feel of the art it got since that point and it ends up feeling like they're trying to make Popplio into something it's not.

What is Popplio then? The only set personality it has according to official descriptions is "hard worker" and "playful", so that doesn't mean it can't be feminine. It's a species so any Popplio could have different traits.

Primarina smells like fish gross
