This book is great for beginners on how to draw Pokemon, starting with drawing the (very) simple Igglybuff, and working your way up to Entei who is much harder to draw.

I'd say it's really helped me improve my drawing skills. I haven't drawn all of them, but I have drawn (you can search these up to know what they look like):

-Igglybuff

-Jigglypuff*

-Cleffa

-Chikorita

-Cyndaquil

-Marill* Because of drawing Marill, it got to me that I can also draw Azurill (who is not in the book but is super easy to draw).

-Wobbuffet

-Pikachu

-Pichu (There are Pichu twins in this book! So cute!)

-Togepi

-Gastly*

and Teddiursa*

I'm hoping to draw a lot more in this book.

*These Pokemon are shown in the book but don't have directions. But, the author gives you one or two hints about their shapes. So that should help you draw them.

For Pokemon who are not in the book but you want to draw, I would recommend just searching up that Pokemon, clicking an image that looks good to you, and start there.

I love drawing from this book, but the only reason why I'm rating this 4.8 stars, is because I would like just a few more Pokemon to draw in this book! I love this book, and will keep drawing from it.

Then when I'm ready to go to drawing more different things, I can try out the shapes and see if they work for me in my drawing style (I'll keep the shapes for drawing Pokemon at least though.)

As a child, I really enjoyed How to Draw Pokémon Paperback. I had practiced drawing some of the more popular and my personal favourites that were in the book. At first they came out a bit horrible, but as I went on practicing I ended up improving to the point where I could draw certain Pokémon on my own, without the help of the book. If you're a veteran Pokémon fan looking for a fun, nostalgic afternoon then I recommend playing around with this book.

Offers step-by-step secret tips on drawing popular PokTmon, including Pikachu, Togepi, Chikorita, Meowth, Pichu, Moundour, Lugia, Cyndaquil, and more. Turtleback binding is a highly durable alternative to a hardcover or paperback book. The comprehensive cover reinforcement process will drastically combat wear and tear, keeping your favorite books in great

I like this book because it has a lot of new Pokémon that I learned. My regrets are that maybe this book is too complicated and you need to break down the Pokémon into simpler parts. The End
