my artstyle is so inconsistent man click to zoom, click arrow to see the next picture ok so for context. i’m making a fakemon region based on central/eastern europe (specifically poland, belarus, ukraine, and moldova) these are the 2 rivals, the boy is named maksym and he’s more of the jerk/bully type rival, and karolina is the girl, more of the friend rival i have maksym’s story more fleshed out, essentially he comes from a traditional style village, he ran away because he wanted to experience the modern world; which is why he acts comedically modern, he’s trying to prove a point. he’s not necessarily a bad person, but he’s aggressive because he’s really only known aggression his whole life, and he internally feels like people are judging him. he also lies about being from one of the bigger cities, and regularly insults the traditional style villagers for being “archaic”. he’s a specialist of electric and steel types, along with the starter that’s super effective against yours. he comes from the part of the region based on ukraine karolina is less fleshed out, she’s a rather cheerful but sarcastic girl who picks the starter that’s weaker than yours. she doesn’t have a type specialty and im still developing her character, she (along with the player) comes from the area of the region based on poland the songs are the ones that i associate with them, (placeholder battle themes) maksym’s is battle! team star grunt from s/v and karolina’s is battle! rival from b/w spoiler: karolina is a traitor and blackmailer :skull:
