So, the thing that gets me back into drawing is a Pokemon OCT(ish) event. Didn't see that coming!

Gijinka: Shawn || Nauxis

Updates:

Post-Event 3 - Added accessory voucher earned from event 3...only months after the event was finished! Schoolwork clearly has not been kind to me lately...anyway, I decided not to accept and egg or additional evo scroll.
NOTE: Artwork of the accessory voucher belongs to :iconpurplekecleon:...I think. Tell me if I'm wrong!

Post-Event 2 - Added evolution scroll to inventory, resulting from Event 2. It hasn't been used yet. As to why, I have a page hinting the reason here: [Link]

============================

Let me introduce Team Troubled Waters!

Shawn: Shawn is a great deal more reserved than he was in the past. He was a lot more carefree and outgoing when he was a young pup being cared for by his mother, a Dewott. While his mother was not part of any major group (like the guild Shawn is in now), she was always quick to defend or assist any pokemon in distress, and was often considered a selfless defender to those around her. She was a hero in Shawn's eyes, and aspired to be just like her.
An unfortunate accident left Shawn's mother in her own situation of distress, however no rescuer was able to reach her by the time of her passing. Shawn was heartbroken and demoralized by the event, and hasn't quite come to terms with it yet. As a result, he is currently reserved and timid, and has a diminished confidence in his abilities.
He followed his friend's advice in joining a rescuer's guild in hopes in becoming what his mother used to be.

Notes:
*The scalchop on his chest was one of his mother's: she had fashioned it herself. Acts as a memento
*Water Pulse is in Shawn's moveset, but he hasn't quite mastered it's execution (as of mission 2)
*The ribbon on his arm acts as a reminder to be brave and help others. He needs to reflect on it fairly often

---
Nauxis:
Nauxis was a sort of a 'family friend' to Shawn and his mother, though he had mostly associated himself with his mother at the time. They had met when Nauxis was injured by a rampaging Tauros; he was sheltered until he was able to fly again. He and the Dewott remained friends after the incident.
After the passing of Shawn's mother, Nauxis took the Oshawott under his wing. He felt that he owed Shawn's mother the favor of rekindling his spirit. After hearing about a nearby rescuers guild, he made the natural suggestion of having Shawn form a team with him and join it.
Nauxis is a soft-spoken pokemon, knowing both how to speak kindly and deliver menacing undertones when needed. Kind words are often reserved for Shawn, though he sometimes becomes somewhat exasperated at Shawn's timid nature, yet he always regrets saying anything out loud that would hurt the Oshawott. Nauxis rarely gives up on a task he sets out to do, but he is aware of his limitation (aka size). He is fairly skilled at finding alternative solutions to problems should he need to.

Going back through your old art because I think you are good.

And I must say that your art style has really improved in two years.
