So, does anyone knows about this fella( https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Kaede )?
For those who don't know, she's a fairly unknown character from the also fairly unknown Pokémon manga "How I Became a Pokémon Card".
So unknown as a matter of fact, that no english translation exist online... A shame because SHE'S A DREAM COME TRUE!!

For what I was able to gather, she's severely allergic to pollen, yet her only Pokémon is a Gloom, a "Dark" Gloom to be more precise (Whatever that is supposed to mean, I don't play TCG).
She keeps her Gloom, despite her obvious problems, because that Gloom saved her in her childhood or something...
Years later, she became a member of Team Rocket and she was tasked to rob her childhood friend... Erika, you know... THE KANTO GRASS TYPE GYM LEADER WITH THE GYM FILLED WITH PLANTS AND GRASS TYPE POKE'MON!
Who wrote this? Give him a medal!!

Sadly, this chapter is her only appearance in the entire franchise.
She disappeared into the nothingness, only to be remembered by us.
But, it can't end like this... If only I knew someone that might be able to bring her back to life in some way... Oh wait, I know who... IT'S ME!

Consider this a thank you to the community! You guys have been so kind to me!!^^

This uses the current Pokémon world as a setting, I changed her uniform with the modern female Rocket Grunt design (Technically, she's now part of Team Rainbow Rocket, a reformed multidimensional Team Rocket, but I was too lazy to color the "R" on her shirt with a rainbow gradient for each panel).
I hope you like this!

I'm not sure if the Bulbapedia link is wrokin' for anyone else or not, but regardless:
WEW that sneezing fit with the three of them at the end is great. Especially with the Gard!

I really like the way you draw mess C:

Ho boy...this...whoa!!!! I am stunned. First...I haven't heard of this character in years. I am surprised anyone remembers her!

You either played the recent games or have done a lot of research, because you got a lot of great details correct about the facts on the different pokemon in this comic!

The best way I can describe this comic is clean. Seriously. Each panel has a clean, clear style that makes the viewer easily able to see what is happening in each scene! This cool type of tones you use for the light and dark shades do not need a rainbow gradient for the R. The R on her shirt looks great the way it is drawn in your comic =)

Even if I myself am not a messy sneeze lover, I actually really like the way you drew her allergic reactive sneezes! Her wet releases match what is hinted at in the only place she shows up in the entire franchise. She is very allergic to pollen, and your comic shows that =) RIP cutiefly...you were just doing what you normally do...but an allergic nose happened to cross your path.

One other reason why this comic shocked me is who exactly she comes in contact with. A Gardevoir and a female Aether grunt! Gardevoir herself is one of my all time favorite pokemon (and she's incredibly useful with her typing XD) and I was not expecting you to draw a gardevoir. I think she looks really nice in this style you did! The panel where Gloom is nervous about how imposing Gardevoir looks is honestly one of my favorite panels throughout the entire comic. Gardevoir can be extremely powerful...and Gloom unfortunately is a horrible match up XD

The poses you drew for Kaede look both cool and cute at the same time. She is capable and certainly much more dependable than James/Jessie/meowth...if her nose didn't get in the way of her mission.

I specifically wanted to say thank you so much for deciding to use Gloom the way you did!! I loved seeing the pokefact about Gloom's pollen! The only other pokemon I know of besides Gloom that specifically mentions sneezing or pollen allergies (besides Vileplume) is a 4th generation pokemon named budew.

Seeing the Aether Grunt sneezing was a great idea, and I honestly loved the idea you had of drawing Gardevoir sneezing too! Having all three have very different sounds and types of sneezes made me smile a lot when I saw that detail you did.

Honestly my favorite face expression throughout this entire comic wasn't anything to do with a sneeze. Kaede's face expression has a surprisingly cute looking grumpy frown while she waits for Gloom to do something. I was not expecting her to look like that, but she looks so cute in that panel I couldn't help but smile seeing her cute side after the desperate yelling in the previous panel.

The ending status report text was a great way to end this comic. It was funny but also very accurate :)

Thank you so much for taking time doing this comic!! You seriously put a lot of small details in it, and I loved seeing the different sneezes from characters I was not expecting to see!

Whether a sneeze idea is one panel, 2 panels, or the massive length of a comic like this one here, I really appreciate seeing the sneeze ideas you do =) I hope you had fun drawing what you wanted to! It was amazing to see your idea.

I messed up the link with the bracket at the end... *facepalm*
Fixed.

Btw, I'm glad you liked it!
I knew that in this forum a Gardevoir sneezing would have been appreciated! XD

I'd say I know my way around Pokémon...
I also have a competitive shiny Gardevoir that I use to wreck stuff in double battles, I know how deadly a Gardevoir can be!
Thanks for the comment!^^

I think you did great with the posing on this!  Like seriously, this is great!  I also can't help but get a chuckle from the mess shooting from her nose and how it is flailing as she falls from the ceiling!  Awesome job!

The only thing I know about Pokemon is... well I can just tell you, it's so short.

Pickachoo, Team Rocket, Ash Ketchup, and they go into balls and shoot out when a little boy throws them.  That's it.

So having zero knowledge of this show/series/comic/card game/wahtever, I gotta say I just love the comic!  I don't know the characters, but I appreciate the sneezy goodness in this comic.  The sneezing fit at the end was clap worthy!

Nicely done on this comic!  Love the snot, lol. I also like how you spell out the sneezes for her and the others near the end.

 I really like the premise of this comic.  It's humorous but well done.  Lots of different scenes and movements, etc.  I can sense your continued improvement and can see it. :)  You're doing great!

This is a treasure!

 I like the establishing shot of the base. You don’t see that every day.
