Rat kings are like the saddest mystery dude, poor little guys
Rat kings are phenomena said to arise when a number of rats become intertwined at their tails. Historically, there are various superstitions surrounding rat kings, and they were often seen as an extremely bad omen, particularly associated with plagues.
A conversation earlier with a friend brought back some memories of one of my old fakemon, and his shiny Rotom pal / Pinky to his Brain.
His name's Devoker, and he's a mythical ghost/psychic Pokemon. He is a malevolent, uninvited resident of the Old Chateau, the infamous manor that sits mostly untouched (by the living, at least) in the Sinnoh region. To prevent myself from rambling too much, I'll put the rest of the info I remember about him in a list format loll:
-His ability is called "Spirakinesis," allowing him temporary control over any ghost types near him (think Marshadow from that one movie, but with just one type). His eyes and red fur-markings will glow purple when using it.
-His base moveset is Shadow Claw, Psychic, Wil o' Wisps, and Destiny Bond.
-His "crown" always floats above his head in preparation/during a move, and will stay there if using his ability.
-Since his paws are very stubby, he uses his ears to walk, stand, attack, etc.
-Like some legendaries, and some other mythical Pokemon, Devoker can speak to both humans and Pokemon alike. Though that doesn't mean he's very pleasant to talk to; this self-proclaimed "king of ghost-types" is rude, grumpy, and borderline insane at times.
-Made a sort of friend in the shiny Rotom that lives inside of the Old Chateau's broken TV, though it seems only interested in keeping him from causing too much damage than actual companionship with him (based off of the shiny Rotom that I encountered during my playthrough of Platinum when I was little... I ran out of Pokeballs. Yes my sib and I made this Rotom character to cope-)
-Enjoys burnt food and watching static, like a lunatic.
-Absolutely despises any form of music.
-He once fell in love with a Mawile that wandered into the manor at some point. Rotom got some hope during this period that his infatuation with her might compel him to change his act a bit (megamind style), but things didn't exactly turn out as planned. I'll leave it at that for now, maybe I'll write a story about it you never know.
-Bro came to me in a weird nightmare while I was playing Platinum. Old Chateau scared me a lot ngl.

huehue the scene that traumatized my childhood. this is also somewhat of a personal piece (as well as practice for making comics again) because I read this comic on deviantArt back when i played this game closer to when it came out that illustrated this same scene but with stabbing which... finally made me realize how the mayor actually could have died in the game at this point lol
but i could never find that comic again! so instead i just made it myself lmao
Part 4, and last part of the felted penguin tutorial!
Now that you have your beak, it’s time for the feet. From all the other penguins I’ve felted, I was running out of orange felt— you can use more than in the picture if you’d like to! Just make sure to cut/tear them as even as you can.
Again, for the feet I usually just place the felt on and go from there, but you can always make the shape beforehand.
Face the feet at an angle under the penguin, more towards the front than the back. Also try to get them as flat as you can, these will be the only thing holding your penguin up! Please do not give your penguin a concussion by dooming it to fall over and over again, the poor little guys.
Next up we’re working on the eyes. If your penguin has a mask, sunglasses, etc, this step is completely optional. Here I could have switched to my smaller needle, but I stuck with medium.
You can shape the penguin’s expression a bit more here with how you shape the eyes— for example, since AA is more attentive, I gave her wider, slightly sloped eyes.
Applying them is about the same as applying the white felt on the belly. Place a small amount of white felt above one side of the beak, shape it as you tighten it, and do the same for the other side. Make sure not to leave any space between the white of the eyes and the beak, and of course, get it as flat as you can.
Lastly, add the black part of the eyes! Use a VERY small amount of black felt, as it pops out a lot.
If you have felting scissors, you can also snip away extra bits of felt around the sides to make it look cleaner. AA definitely needs a bit more of a trim XD
I’ll get to her clothes sometime, but for now, here’s your penguin tutorial!
Sofia wanted to take a break from partying for a moment to trick-or-treat :3
hello sofia and happy halloween to you! take this totally not cursed spider necklace
OOH YEAH, THAT WOULD ACTUALLY WORK WITH HIM
he like genuinely believes he's doing better than the EPF is at protecting the island, he would definitely try and ask her to join him lol. he's def really salty about being rejected
AGGGGGH THEY WOULD BE SUCH COOL RIVALS I MEAN THEY BOTH HATE JPG TOO
do you think stellar and killian would take boxing lessons together. since they're basically twins at this point
It’d actually be pretty cool if they did before he became a hitman/villain-
I think he’d have enjoyed sparring with her, he does love a good fist fight too. Even after he lost his badge, he’d probably still would get excited if she’s the EPF agent he has to fight while on a job. I think he sees her as a sort of equal when it comes to strength and skill, much like how he feels about JPG (though with a lot less bitterness, he doesn’t have as much of a reason to her as he does he does Guy). He probably would ditch his gun for a hand-to-hand fight with her with very little persuasion lol.
Anyway, have a sketch of them about to fist fight in their EPF outfits
I hereby declare from this moment forward that I will be posting one rat a day, whether it be my art, a reblog, or a random rat nose to boop, it shall be done.
Signed, Dumi the Dumbo Rat
Exposing my 10 year old self's New Years Resolutions that I think I did for a school project or something
I think something was bothering at the time lol
Did this for an art contest, and I'm actually kinda proud with how it turned out! I also learned along the way that fabric and felt mesh a lot easier than I had originally thought, as I was able to attach the dress with my needle without much of a problem.
But anyway, they fit nicely with my collection! Even if I don't win I still gained something out of it :3
Happy Pride <3
