A blog about one of my favorite artists, Atsuko Nishida!
Atsuko is a video game artist. She works for the Pokemon company and has been ever since the first games! Originally most of the Pokemon designs were supposed to appear scary or tough like Charizard or Tyranitar, but she took some of the designs and gave them a cutesy look!
Atsuko is also the mastermind behind the company’s mascot Pikachu! She also designed a couple of the eevee evolutions and even designed my favorite Pokemon Zoroark! Not only that but if it wasn’t for her, Ivysaur would look like this!
Another cute fact about this artist is she’s super camera shy, during an interview in 2018 she spent the entire thing hiding behind a Pikachu plush!
Atsuko’s work is very important to the company because without her design we wouldn’t have a balance of designs within the Pokemon games. We mainly have intimidating ones such as Garchomp or Metagross.
Atsuko is an inspiration to me because not only are her designs diverse and loved by all but they also hold purpose in a way. The main rule of a pokemon design is that they need to look like they’d be your friend, I feel that Atsuko pulls this off really well! I try and make my work to have the same feel, some of my characters may look intimidating but deep down inside they’re total sweethearts who will have your back no matter what, either that or they’re just goofballs who want to have a good time with you!
One of the things that amazes me about her is that when she made the design for the company’s mascot, Pikachu, she didn’t make any concept sketches! She went straight to the computer and started punching dot’s to create him. She even quoted it herself in one of her interviews!
I like her designs because of how much character they hold and the color schemes and inspiration behind them are interesting! Not only that but the designs are also loved by many people and I wish to have people enjoy my designs, similarly to how they enjoy Atsuko’s!

Extra plushie pics
Okay last picture of Pikachu.
For now!
I did this picture on Instagram ( My account is Oliviathecatofficial) 5 days ago. Even though I took a picture of this on January 14 for 16.
I added this photo on my iPhone by using the ad called: IbisPaint X the same one I use for my drawings to draw digital art work.
I got my mini sleeping Pikachu plushy super cute. I would’ve gotten the bigger one, but I don’t have the room for it, lol 😆.
But I’m probably gonna get some more of these mini sleeping Pokémon plushy cause they’re super cute.
Speaking of sleep, I’m gonna go to bed soon and get some sleep. I’m posting this around the time it’s nighttime for me.
So have a good night, good day or good evening or good morning everyone! 

Here’s another picture of Pikachu I kind of have one more. It’s an old post I did on Instagram before this current one.
So I’m gonna post this also and probably be the last pictures of Pikachu at least for now!
I’m not sure if this Pikachu toy is a McDonald’s one, as my mom gave it to me.
This one even gloves in the dark as you look at the second picture. 
Almost forgot to post some more Pikachu’s lol 😆!
I like the different emotions that the Pikachu figures toys have.
Which one is your favorite Pikachu figure? 
Today is Pikachu day since I won’t have time to do digital artwork of Pikachu I decide to post photography pictures of my Pikachu plushy I have so far.
I don’t show a lot of photography pictures on Tumblr. I might try to do them more and once in a while.
I’ll probably be posting some more pictures of Pikachu tomorrow and Wednesday.
I have them on top of my bed. 
I love Pikachu although Pikachu is now like my second favorite, Pokémon besides Sprigatito who is now my first favorite, Pokémon. I do love Pichu,Raichu, and Alolan Raichu. I might be getting some more Pikachu plushy’s. 
Strongly believe everyone should have a favourite Pokémon
I don’t care if you’re not into it, suck it up and choose one or I’ll do it for you

MY B O I 🌿
I love drawing Pokémon but sometimes I get really stuck in an awkward, my art style vs the Pokémon art style™️

Denki the pokemon trainer!
I always imagined kaminari as a pikachu, and finally put pen to paper! He's in ash's sinnoh fit, when I saw that liko had ash's original pin except as a pin and not on a hat, it kinda reminded me of the spider mask and how each spider had their own take on it, so I tried that with the green arrow. As for the pikachu, inazuma, she has no tail cause she wasn't born with one (totally not cause I couldn't draw it)
When you're in bed, starting to get a bit drowsy, and then you're suddenly looking at a shiny Pokémon. (Research Breakthrough.)
That legendary place...
“Alright…now let’s go find the One Piece!!!”
