Thanks for hosting🙏
Nice to meet ya- Graphite's my name, grayscale's my game!

I mainly do Pokémon and my OCs, but I kinda dabble in whatever I want- all traditional art though

A painted Scorbunny in full color wearing a grayscale ink Santa hat popping out of a grayscale ink gift box. The box has seen better days by being ripped open from the inside and the bow on the front is a bit disheveled. A grayscale drawing of Psyduck and Gengar from the front desk in Pokémon S/V. They are holding reference materials while heading towards the right. Psyduck is carrying 3 books while smiling and walking alongside Gengar, who is returning the gesture while floating and carrying 4 books in its right hand and 2 large rolled up papers in its left arm. A grayscale ink drawing of my OC, Graphite, from a top viewpoint. Her body is facing slightly away towards the left while looking over her shoulder. Her shadow is behind her, but doesn't match her figure. Instead, it appears to be a creature with horns and wings. A grayscale ink drawing of my OC, Preston Hiru. He is sitting while reading through 4 different books at once. Each book is floating in the air with pages turning. There is also a stack of books behind him with the top one beginning to float as well.

Soooo turns out it's not just headache, sinuses or migraine, but a whole hypothyroidism issue!

So tacking that on to how I also keep spraining my wrist doing stupid things, my progress on #InkedUpOct is gonna be SLOW🥲
A grayscale drawing of the path of route 210 in Sinnoh. It is littered with Psyduck all having huge headaches of varying severity. There is an explosion going off in the background with the word "BOOM" over it.

Been missing those PMD games recently- I hope they do a remake of Darkness/Time/Sky

A grayscale ink drawing of a Pikachu and a Chikorita from the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games. Chikorita looks to be about to cry with an exclamation mark over its head, indicating low HP. Pikachu is looking back at Chikorita and pointing in the opposite direction trying to tell it there's food and the stairs in that direction.

A few more of my favs from past #InkedUpOct years

#graphitedraws #Pokemon #Pokemonart #inktober #inktoberalternative
A grayscale drawing of Alex Hiru on a shopping spree with her male Indeedee. She is carrying a gift bag on her left arm and 3 large boxes in her left hand by leaning them against her body. Her Indeedee has 2 smaller bags hanging on his right arm and holding out his left to receive the shopping bag Alex is handing him with her right. They look very smug like they snagged a great deal. A grayscale drawing of a Maractus, Chingling and Chatot jamming out to a gramophone. A grayscale drawing of a Girafarig and a Farigiraf in a field of grass. A grayscale drawing of a Krokorok sunbathing in the desert.

It's almost time for #InkedUpOct so here's a few more of my favs from past years!

#graphitedraws #Pokemon #Pokemonart #inktoberalternative
A lineart drawing of a female Indeedee sitting on a rock reading a book to a Chinchou and Hatenna. A grayscale drawing of a decadent dessert on a plate with a fancy dessert spoon. It's topped with fudge, a pecha berry, and a chocolate Butterfree wing. A grayscale ink drawing of a silhouetted Miffy Manoa and her Absol going across stepping stones in the ocean during sunset. A grayscale ink drawing of a buff cosplayer wearing a speedo and a Magikarp head.

Wanted to post some of my favorite past #InkedUpOct drawings since it's coming up soon!

#graphitedraws #Pokemon #Pokemonart #inktober #inktoberalternative
A grayscale ink drawing of a Galarian Meowth with large, wild eyes holding a mug of a hot, caffeinated drink in front of its face, covering up the area that you would normally see its crazed smile. A grayscale drawing of a very ornate rotary phone. The dial is on the bottom left with the phone rested on the top right. In between the 2 is a sculpture of a Florges sitting on a collection of lilies with its eyes closed, left hand resting on its chest and right on its lap. A line drawing of my OC, Preston, resting his upper body on a tabletop with his left hand crossed on top of his right and his head resting on top of both. He's looking to his right on his shoulder at his Natu, who has nuzzled into his hair and scarf. There is a mug of a hot beverage sitting on the table in front of his left arm. The 1st panel shows someone holding a Pokémon egg very tightly to his chest. The egg has large scratches on the left side of it. The 2nd panel shows the same person holding a very happy Torchic with a huge scar that's the same as what the egg had. The last panel says "I am flawed, but I am loved."
