Nathan deserves some more credit about how much his Pinwheel looks like a legitimate Pokémon design. I feel like I could show it to my brother (former Pokémon fanboy) and be like “check out the new gen!” And he’d be like “oh nice” because it’s just so darn good

9:07 Karina: "What's that one font - Jokerman?" We live in a typography.

Julia's pure joy at seeing Castform after hearing about it makes Castform's existence worthwhile.

Karina: "Nathan this is Neato" Jacob and Nathan: "You just activated my trap card"

“Why is his butt so swollen??” Karina, confidently: hemorrhoids 🥰

Julia's "is there a Necromancer type in pokemon" sounded like a DnD mom trying to connect with her pokefan children

Fun fact, Pinwheel's name in the original Japanese translates roughly to "three people in a giant robe." It references a form of traditional Japanese comedy where one person puts on a robe and another person puts their arms into the sleeves and tries to feed that person, to great comedic effect. The cultural reference was totally lost in translation, and the localization team presumably just threw their arms up and called him Pinwheel because that's what he looks like.

Btw, that "ugly Pokemon, that looks like its tail got cut off" was part of a group of Pokemon that are literally supposed to be abominations. They're a group of reanimated pokemon, but the one reanimating them, mashes together two fossils that don't actually fit. Which results in Pokemon that make no sense, because they're two halves of different prehistoric Pokemon. It's a reference to how archaeologists sometimes fuck up and create wrong dinosaurs, by just adding together fossils that are found entangled.

I hate to say it, since Julia did so well at drawing a Pokemon, but... adding a zipper to imply that the design is actually a costume? That's a real Digimon move right there. Evidence: It immediately made Karina like the design more.

Karina: "This is neat-o" Predictable nerds: "Actually, this..." Karina "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP"

"Imagine if Pikachu evolved and it's just Pikachu with a gun" Then it would be a Digimon.

Julia: I hate Dracovish. Dracovish: *Looks like half of the Pokemon Julia has ever drawn*

Y’all should go to Wikipedia’s list of obsolete occupations and draw what you think those jobs are by their name. The list includes titles like “between maid,” “toad doctor,” and “Coffee sniffer.”

In today's episode: - Intense pokemon shaming - Julia pretending she knows pokemon, instead of pretending she doesn't know pokemon at all - Nathan creating a portfolio piece to get hired by Gamefreak & Nintendo - Long ass arms

I never thought about Castform having gigantic bongos but now I have to live the rest of my life with that knowledge and I really don't appreciate it. 10/10 episode.

julia’s laugh at the honkin bazonkas pokemon was like a shot of serotonin straight to my brain

Ok, but speaking of clicks, Drawfee gotta be one of the most consistent channels out there? Around 200-300k views on almost every video for idk how long. Really tells how loving your core fanbase is!

“Pinwheel is a necromancer pokémon that tried to resurrect its dead wife and son, but failed horribly, and now is fused to their partially reanimated corpses that it carries around on its back.” -Pinwheel, Pokédex entry

Karina’s rendering is just *chef’s kiss* looks exactly like the coloring of the older generations and I’m obsessed

The fact that Karina is usually the one telling everyone about super niche things, and today it's Jacob and Julia's turn to tell her about super niche things while Nathan peacefully draws something badass... idk there's just something very endearing and poetic about it.

The irony of Karina being concerned about the sexiness of pokemon when she draws absolute ABOMINATIONS of horniness

man Julia looking up Pokémon is a joy to listen to, and hitmonbottom is perfect

Julia reacting to castform is SO FUNNY. The initial giggle contains so many emotions.

I feel like Castform is the perfect anime mousepad where your wrist lay between the two "clouds" 😅

The fact that Nathan said “different ASSpects of a butt” and no one said anything is a pun crime

SHOUT OUT TO DAVID FOR ALL THOSE POKEMON THEY HAD TO PUT ON THE SCREEN!

I think the intention was to make castform look like an H2O molecule… but I disagree with its execution on a personal level

11:40 In the defense of dracovish, he is supposed to look like crap; He's based off of some really bad reconstructions of dinosaurs from London, where they went like "behold! a new species of dinosaur!" and it was literally just a mesh of different species stuck together without any scientific proof, so, since dracovish is a fossil pokemon and the region where he is from (galar) is based off of the UK, its design is a nod to that funny part of history.

Julia made me ask myself, "Do gargoyles give live birth or lay eggs?" and this cannot be forgiven

Julia laughing at castform after making spheal is fucking hilarious i can't even

I LOVE a callback to Julia's "he-nut" joke, even though she doesn't.

14:20 - Julia's Castform reaction restored my energy and brightened up my whole week!

Both Jacob and Nathan IMMEDIATELY jumping to correct Karina’s “neato” is what’s giving me life today

Julia's reaction to Castform legit was the most contagious laugh.

For those wondering, Castform is based on a water molecule, which has three parts, one big oxygen atom, and two smaller hydrogen atoms. If you don't know that, I can definitely see why it's confusing

"Who are you top three Pokémon who shouldn't exist GO." Me immediately: Mr. Mime

for Julia's eyes only, an explanation to the Galar fossil Pokemon (like Dracovish): early dinosaur bone finds were mixed up, creating horrible and inaccurate dinosaur chimeras that's why in SwSh you combine fossils and they become these weird dragons that actively, and explicitly, want to die so in other words: they're just dinosaur lies, perhaps from a big book written by Nathan

Damn, even David got in on that "No, this isn't Nito" bit. Y'all just got her! Plus, loving to see those quick reference images flashing up. As someone who also doesn't know shit about anything, I appreciate it!

Fun fact, calling them the legendary dogs is a misinterpretation. When doing the designs, they wanted the three to mirror a lion (entei), a tiger (raikou) and a leopard (suicune). They should instead be addressed as the legendary beasts

can we talk about how amazing Karina's render looks? she nailed the retro pokemon art style

I love Karina's render, she really nailed the coloring style of the Gen 1 concept art!!

14:20 Julia's laugh just gave 10 more years of life

Ok nathan and karina NAILED the pokemon. And I loved Julia’s interpretation, it would definitely be a pokemon if it were more in the style. But we all know how julia draws with detail 😂 love her!

Julia's pure joy at seeing Castform just made my day - that reaction was perfect :)

"He's a bit of a mess" "Aren't we all?" Damn, Karina, if that isn't a mood nowadays

Pinwheel is actually a necromancer who done kerfuddled himself and got fused with his wife and son

I always saw castform as having two little foot nubbins but that’s gone forever now lmfao

I love that you can tell the exact moment Julia's brain finished processing castform

14:16 Julia’s genuine reaction to Normal-type Castform

Julia's laugh at seeing Castform for the first time was SO pure ohmygosh Edit: 14:14

Castform is the physical embodiment of the phrase: "Uh....my eyes are up here!"

Karina's render mimicking the old watercolor style of the 1st generation artwork is so good.

"Funcomfortable" is yet another apt descriptor for some of Drawfee's drawings.

Julia's reaction to castform was hilarious, it's got honkin Badonkaroos.

the first fifteen minutes alone is pound for pound the funniest thing ive seen in months. genuinely considering clipping the way karina chimes in to say "hemorrhoids" without missing a beat, i spat my tea

I love the front bottoms quite a lot, but hearing jacob suddenly namedrop them here gave me whiplash

I felt the desolation on Nathan when nobody catch the "ass-pects of the butt" line.

castform is such a neat concept as a pokemon that they have criminally neglected almost immediately upon creating him.

Julia insulting dracovish as if it doesn't look like something she would 100% conjure up is hilarious

"There's 5 ones that are just spiders and they're like, indistinguishable from one another" to be fair that's pretty true to real life spiders

i was having the worst day, but castform's tig ole biddies made me cry laughing 😭 thanks yall, you're the best

A dream come true! Of course these get clicks! Your dark souls series is what made me fall in love with you like 4 years ago.

Nathan: Pinwheel is a nightmare Karina: Aww it's cute! This is why I'm in love with Karina

Shout out to the editor for having Castform appear every time they mention it

This isn’t originally my suggestion but if you look at Bulbapedia, there’s a pretty solid physical description of each pokemon. What if you put that through google translate a time or seventeen and then gave the result to someone else to draw (keeping the original a secret, of course)?

Time to see what Julia has learned in her travels.

I love the rendering on Karina's drawing. It makes it look like an early Pokemon artwork by Ken Sugimori. Unfortunately, the Headbutt Pokemon looks surprisingly like a gen 1.

Karina: "Castform is that little ball with boobs." Me: *look at picture* Well thanks a lot Karina, now I can't unsee that.

Karnia singing "molten anus" made my day. Swiftly followed by Jacob "thats a backweiner". RIP me

Drawing Idea: Let's keep riding this train and draw muppet characters as dark souls characters or alternately, dark souls characters as muppets.

I wish clipping was enabled on this video just so I can rewatch Julia's reaction 14:12 over and over hahah

I had to pull my car over and take a moment when Karina said: ✨ H E MO R R H O I D S✨ This episode is the most chaotic thing ever and I *love* it

Nathan says he took too long but then just drew a beautiful Pokémon! The design is so good and it just came out of his hands like nothing!

I would love to see Karina and Jacob ranking and roasting all the existing pokemon

Draws a digimon: "This is the closest I've ever gotten to drawing an actual pokemon."

is anyone else genuinely proud of Julia for correctly remembering both a bird pokemon and a dog pokemon (kinda)?

you should definitely do an episode improving all the Pokemon you roasted in this episode

The joy in Jacob's voice as he exclaims his hatred is perfect.

Drawfee naming the episode Pokemon to draw in pokemon fans and then spending the whole episode roasting pokemon is so funny 😂

I have a few things to day about this episode as a Pokémon fan. 1. Castform is supposed to be a water molecule (the teets are supposed to be the H² in H²O) though I do agree they could have put it somewhere else. 2. I completely disagree on your hate to Swampert. Yes he's very ugly, but it's another pug situation where it's so ugly it's cute. 3. I love that Karina's render recreates the original Pokémon art style where the official art was more watercolor-y 4. I believe the total opposite of this video (Pokémon as Dark Soul Bosses) would've gotten much more attention because Disney Characters as Dark Soul Bosses was way more popular than Dark Soul Bosses as Disney Characters.

I never thought somebody's laugh would bring me near to tears with joy, but then Julia saw Castforme

Julia won this time. She actually drew a Pokémon.

you can't talk about dark souls without making a Nito joke, and this episode does not disappoint

When you were talking about wobbuffet, my brain was like “oh that one, boba fett” 🥴

I almost choked on my lunch from laughing when Julia found Castform.

David's (?) silent "Oh no" fading in at 1:12 at that ripe-for-demonitization intro made me laugh

Thank you for keeping the Castform picture up for your entire conversation so we could all enjoy it together.

JULIA'S REACTION TO CASTFORM LITERALLY JUST GAVE ME LIFE

Julia's laugh is a bird call and you cannot convince me otherwise

You should do a “Who’s that Pokémon challenge” with the silhouette and all but draw a different Pokémon in the space (or sonic)

Jacob’s The Front Bottoms joke made me have A REACTION. So sad it got slept on. 10/10

Suggestion: draw prehistoric creatures you've never heard of, like Aussiedraco, Saltasaurus, and Gluteus minimus.

"Does this pokemon have a weapon? That would be like if Pikachu evolved and got a gun." You laugh, but Sirfetch'd exists

I really like how Karina rendered hers, it looks hand drawn almost, not how any of them render usually but looks cool

Thank you to Karina for pointing out the issue of calling Tyrogue a bottom

Nathan's Poké-fied Pinwheel is definitely a pseudo-legendary. Also, Castform is Dickbutt confirmed.

"Long card Jim" makes me want to suggest having Willie go through and pick out of context quotes from old drawfee episodes for you to draw.

Fun fact about Castform: the head part resembles Teru teru bōzu-a charm/doll meant to ward off bad weather. No excuse for the booby bottom, tho.

Pinwheel - Ghost/Fire type. On rare occasions, Yamasks carrying the masks of close relatives will merge together into a single Pokemon. In spite of having three seperate minds, they work in perfect harmony Smeelta - Fire/Steel type. Seelta live in volcanic environments rich in metal ores. They expel hot slag through the strange opening on their foreheads to drive away rivals who resist fire attacks. Vordit - Ice/Steel type. What appears to be the true body is actually shed skin formed into a suit of armor. It exudes such powerful cold that touching the armor with bare skin will instantly cause frostbite.

I honestly feel like Castform should have bigger bazongas.
