Meet the Gijinkas ( Rather than referring to just any animal with human characteristics, a gijinka is most often a fan re-design of an animal-like character as a human or humanoid form)! Here are a bunch of Gijinka characters I've made, and the Pokemon they're based off of.
Raiku: "A knight, a magic wielding protector who guards his kingdom with fierce loyalty and power. His long cape appears heavy, but it is actually light and cloud-like. He can use it to enhance his power and when he uses it, the cape itself cascades out around him making the area increasingly foggy."
Lampent: "A grave keeper in a black trench coat with equally dark boots, their skin pale and other worldly. Not the color of any known human's flesh. Eyes wide and glowing, afraid of the darkness he stretches his arm out, holding his lantern, and his soul, out in his hand."
Stoutland: "The fun grandpa who tells stories and is always seen with a pipe, but you never actually see him smoke. And when you finally ask him about it, he blows it and it makes bubbles. Always up for a family dinner, and gives the best hugs."
