Summary
A talentedPokemonfan online has shared their impressive pieces of artwork, which reimagines many of the series' ghost-types as if they were part of a tarot card deck.Pokemonfan art gets more creative as the years go on, and this is another great example of that.
Fans have been passionate aboutPokemonever since it was first released, all the way back in 1996. As a result, there’s an enormous amount of fan art for the series, which can make it difficult to stand out from the crowd, even with something unique. The fact that the number of Pokemon recently passed the 1000 mark doesn’t help either, with plenty of new designs for fans to create artwork of. This does mean that there are plenty of different designs for talented artists to put their own spin on, such as thePokemonfan who reimagined Gengar’s evolution line in a rubberhose cartoon style.
Redditor zanevikart shared their amazing artwork with thePokemoncommunity online, which displays many of the series’best ghost-type Pokemonand turns them into a tarot card deck. Thematically, it’s amazing. Artistically, it’s even better. Highlights include Mimikyu as The Fool, staring into a dark night sky, and Decidueye as The Hanged Man, dangling upside down from a Dhelmise. The attention to detail is incredible, with many in the thread pointing out Giratina’s presence on some of the cards, like, in the words of one user, “a looming shadow waiting to be freed.”
