Jacques' Furret (WIP)
Drawn by flora-remora. Part of the album Character References.
I've been drawing Jacques lately, and then tagging him with "Pokémon" when no one can really tell if he is from the Pokémon universe just by looking at him. So, here is one of his Pokémon, a Furret named Freddy. This drawing is incomplete, so I am going to add to this later and make it a more complete drawing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second (and most recently) caught Pokémon to date, Freddy had been caught trying to nab food from Jacques as a Sentret. He fled, however, from one look at his (Jacques') face. Jacques was offended, and tried to call the Sentret back. The Sentret came back, and was successfully captured and christened Freddy. Since then, Freddy got used to Jacques and Jacques to Freddy and now they are really close. Jacques dotes on Freddy and thinks he is the cutest thing on the planet. When he is out of his Poké Ball, Jacques wears Freddy like a scarf around his neck. So, essentially, Jacques was stylish even before joining Team Flare, haha. I kid. (I have yet to draw Jacques in his Team Flare uniform).

The tag around Freddy's neck is a Spell Tag in order to amplify his Shadow Claw. Jacques taught him Shadow Claw so he could surprise his ghost-type opponents (if they successfully knock out Jacques' Golurk). Freddy also knows Ice Beam so he can swiftly defend Jacques from flying-types. A drawback is that despite being a normal type, Freddy does not frequently use any STAB moves.
