Here’s part two of my future Alola redraws, this time featuring Sophocles and Acerola.
This time, I had much more trouble than with the previous batch - blame that on my tendency to overshade as compared to the much simpler style of the games’ official art - but I hope they still look nice.
So, what happened to those two? I imagine Sophocles will continue tinkering around with his inventions and eventually get a job at the Observatory, using his skills to make sure everything is running as smoothly as possible. And Acerola… I don’t think she’ll ever outgrow her cheerful, kooky personality. I see her keeping her Elite 4 duties, but also helping out at the Aether House, becoming sort of a big sis figure to the kids there.
What’s even better is that Maras mother LOVED the book Matilda. She loved it so much that she got her daughter the part, however she died before she got to see it. Or so Mara thought. Apparently just a few weeks before she died Danny Devito went in to the hospital with a rough first edit of the movie and got to let her watch it before she passed.
