Handcrafted with love

A set of vibrant frame-by-frame animations featuring the original Pokémon Red and Blue starters, and additional character designs by Markus Magnusson. Each character appears in a themed vignette emphasizing expressive movements and believable weight while embracing the humorous absurdity of the scenarios. From dance cyphers to magical girl transformations, the loops exist for pure character-driven fun. Layered grain, stylized smear frames, and refined linework reinforce a traditional hand-drawn aesthetic, creating animations that feel both nostalgic and playful.
