Description Known for her kind nature, Nelli enjoys relaxing and hanging out with her friends. However, she dislikes being thought of as weak, and thus enjoys training with her older brother. She has bright teal eyes compared to the normal dark purple that are filled with determination. She wears a red headband to make sure that all of her fluff doesn't get in the way of her vision (which it has been known to do every once in a while) and training wraps along her lower legs to help protect them. Her feet appear to be brown compared to the normal white, but that's only because they are so dirty due to training. She used to wash them everyday, but she eventually gave up on keeping them clean. Now she only washes her feet for special occasions.

She specializes in special attacks and in speed, making it hard to hit her average defenses. While she is weaker when it comes to physical attacks, her favorite move is Thunderpunch, which she first saw performed by her brother when he defended her from a pack of Houndour. Since then she observed the older Ampharos until she successfully self-taught herself the difficult move.

The only item that she holds onto is a thunderstone (Not shown). While it is of no use to her, it is a reminder of her friend Pikachu, a pokemon that she was best friends with as a Mareep. They had planned on evolving together, but that was before Pikachu was caught by a Kanto Pokemon Professor...


For the Pokesona contest ("pokemon" + "persona"= "pokesona"). In my SS game, I have an Ampharos that is gentle natured, and I think that she is pretty much as close as I could get to being a pokemon, if I was one. But because I'm a growing 18-year-old girl, I still have a lot to learn about life, so I'm not exactly an Ampharos, but I'm definitely not below lv. 16.

Edit: Thank you for the honorable mention from Peachfuzz! Thank you so much While this didn't get first, it was among 5 people who got 7th place, which is pretty good for my first pokedorks contest! I earned 94 EXP cause of this, and that makes me happy

She's like the pokemon Naruto character!

... Yeaaah I'm a derp.

Anyway, I love this so much! That angle of the top picture, and her fluffiness in both are both AWESOME

no, so am I. I'm a Naruto fan as well- it probably influenced my creation of her. And I don't like changing the official colorizations of the pokemon too much or making them have special markings or special situations, etcetera. I think of myself as more on the average side, and so I wanted my pokesona to reflect that by not changing her initial design too much. but adding accessories are totally fine with me, thus the leg wraps and the head band!

Art wise, this is a beautiful picture that's both very well drawn and colored effectively (in two different styles ... both awesome ) The composition is great, and I adore the angry-looking Nellie who looks like a storm cloud. I'm amused that her feet are dirty from training, but the rest of her looks squeaky clean~ ^^ Like I said earlier, I love that you added a bio for her, because that makes an already beautiful picture even better ... you feel like you really know the flaaffy. I also love the reason you chose flaaffy as a pokesona, it's well thought out and makes sense. And the poor pikachu friend she has ... how sad. From both the story behind Nellie and her design, I know you'll do really well in this contest!! ^o^

"I adore the angry-looking Nellie who looks like a storm cloud." ~I didn't even think about this! But now, looking at her, it's just so absolutely true! I love it I also didn't realize that she does look squeaky clean, despite her dirty feet I'm still loving it!

Yays for long comments! I'm glad you noticed her 'pikachu friend'... I loved coming up with that part if only to connect her to the pokemon series ...do you recognize who the pikachu was? Or was I too obscure?

TsukiTsu In reply to Draw4life [2010-05-26 06:25:05 +0000 UTC]

Haha, that's the first thing I thought of with the lightning sparking from her foot ... storm cloud fluff! It's perfect! And awesome that you didn't even think of it ... that makes it better. XD

I feel bad, but I don't know the reference ... unless it's Sparky? I haven't watched any episode other than the eevee ones in a long time (obsessive in strange ways X3), but I wanna know who her pikachu friend was!

Hint #1: Who's the 'kanto professor'?
Hint #2: Who has a pikachu in the anime in the first season?
(more obvious or no? maybe i watched too much pokemon as a kid...)

Oh wait ... Professor Oak? 'cause he had pikachu to begin with ... :3

Draw4life In reply to TsukiTsu [2010-05-26 20:55:40 +0000 UTC]

did it say that? I assumed that he had to get it at some point, and since pikachu was so stubborn and 'wild' when Ash got him, I think that he could've caught pikachu in Johto or something. maybe on his way back to give Gary and Ash their pokemon?

it was a fun idea I came up with that I enjoy!

TsukiTsu In reply to Draw4life [2010-05-27 00:25:33 +0000 UTC]

Well, Professor Oak was the one who Ash got pikachu from ... but whatever way you go with it, I love that you connected your pokesona with the series~

Draw4life In reply to TsukiTsu [2010-05-27 00:33:41 +0000 UTC]

yeah. I guess what I'm trying to do in a 'discrete' way say where Professor Oak got pikachu. oh well. but it's still super fun!

I really like your Pokesona! Not only is the art great, but the accompanying description really makes all the visual details fall into place. Haha, I especially like the dirty feet part, and the headband to keep the luxurious Flaaffy fluff out of her face during training. Her personality and appearance are shown so well.

Awesome work, and good luck to you in the contest!

thanks! I really enjoyed making it. It's been something I've been meaning to do, but I never got to it. Seeing that there was going to be a contest gave me the bit of motivation that I needed. Although I had some trouble deciding on the pokemon
