Description

Thanks CrochetQueen for suggesting my Magikarp for a Daily Deviation, and thanks Brookette for giving it to me. ;w; You guys are awesome~

And thanks everyone for the faves and the comments. :D I'll answer when I can~

This guy is the third prize of the contest I hosted (for future deviants, the contest ended last week). 

Oh my gosh was this guy a challenge to make. It was fun, but dang was he a challenge. He can't stand up on his own, so I had to use a ring and a que sera sera sphere to prop him up. XD Otherwise, he is meant to lie on his side, ready to use Splash attack. 

Anyway, my reason as to why this dude was the third prize instead of a Master Ball as I planned originally was because of his big surprise when he evolved back when Gen 1 first came out. Personally I never expected a carp to turn into a dragon. XD My little 10 year old mind exploded when it evolved (I was able to play the game a year after it came out 'cause I didn't have a gameboy. ;w; ). That guy was nostalgic enough to become the third place prize. XD

Well, Magikarp, if you hate it or love it, was a fun pokemon back in the day and still is special. XD Even if he reeeeeally sucked in battle and was so frustrating to try and get to evolve. 

Enjoy guys~ I'll be working on the announcement of the winners in a bit. :D Hope you're all excited~

ALSO, NO, I CANNOT GIVE YOU THE PATTERN. 
My pattern consists of this: winging it, winging it, and winging it. And most times I don't remember exactly how I made something.
