"Thank god for being lazy"

While I'm here, have you heard of hit new pokemon game, Pokemon Sleep? It's a Pokemon game you play by going into SOM-NI-UM, it has terrible framerate, half of it is in loading screens, has barely anything to do, like a massive bunch of patches to install every day and it's still bugged up the ass, questionable choices, pikachu is forced into your face, you get stuck in endless error loops booting you to the title screen forever which softlock you, and fans already kinda hate it. Basically the same as any other modern pokemon game because I sleep through the gameplay as well.

I'm just abusing power here idc this animation took forever and im typing this on my birthday and i drew the assets in 2k res for some reason, I'm 50% as crazy as EKB but with 0% of the PS5, my friend code for pokemon sleep is: 6589-1576-7279

"Special thanks to Jelly (jelly386) for the assistance, I recruited them for the initial sketch, as I felt like the vibe of their style worked perfectly for this!

The background is the old trial art I did, instead of the clear bg gif in Discord, because 1: Imgur doesn't allow big gifs without turning them into white background videos, and 2: The first frame having that text is BOUND to set chat off, maybe even Joe, so he can provide his own audio. esp cos i couldn't find a clean clip of joe saying it lol. idk maybe i'll just ask directly in dms next time instead of trying to get him to say it in fanart.

The splashes on the side use to be black and white, not black and grey, and flashed 4 times faster, but I'm going to do the opposite of Rabi Ribi and make it epilepsy safe.

This used to be a whole thing where I'd animate a trial going on with the other mods, Marik being represented by MarBun covering herself as her top slipped off, and whatever the fuck Alduin Feet Pic's avatar is (even he doesn't know who that character is) and so on but I encountered one minor inconvenience so. ANIMATING IS HARD. IVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR WEEKS. glad i finished this JUST in time."

Really annoying how imgur doesn't allow you to upload big gifs, so I was forced to make this version. anyway next up is the big gif version of this cos we're not on imgur.

"Here's an uncompressed PNG for you to enjoy and zoom in on (pls no really the bunny ass took so much effort don't do the same here), pre "let's not kill epileptics" alterations. I kept Jelly's shading style cos it added so much. Love you Jelly.

I did say this last fanart, but I really appreciate the streams, Joe. Been having alot of fun, you're honestly killing it for a part of the game you're not nearly supposed to be in, and without all the proper abilities too, like intended mobility yet doing a hitless fight, LLUJ. Thanks, and hope you enjoy the *intended* difficulty fights which are *more* balanced and fair, and yet still bullshit.

Wanna know how the pre item wall jump works? You need to face away from the wall you jump off, after leaving the ground, before you turn into it. You doing the little twirl did actually help."

ah yes. the intended difficulty fights he recieved later on. yeah. hrm. about that, tuesday kay.

This is a polished, refined and actually the OG vision from back when I drew the courtroom. It changed over time to suit what was relevant to the stream, but since fanart got pushed back I had the opportunity to finish this. Thank god the rogue mod incident is still relevant, right?"

I'm glad that it did get pushed back since my bed is comfy, I'm lazy, animating is a bitch, and another thing that makes sense that i can't be bothered to think of, idk. In the spirit of keeping things lazy, the rest of the fanart left is the previous/alternate version of this, a looping gif of that, then an uncompressed still image for zooming in hd style, all of which I didn't edit the description of since Tuesday, so PLEASE speed through em lol

Oh and don't feel bad Joe, genuinely, fanart being delayed gives me more reason to polish up the art and spend some time refining it. Hell, this has already been used in some highlights compilations too!
