'Garfémon' Reimagines The Original 151 Pokémon As Garfield
Shawn Bowers is an artist who has decided to use his talents for a horrific purpose: render each of the first 150 Pokémon as Garfield.
On this Tumblr blog titled "Garfémon" you can see how each Pokémon would like look if they a) hated Mondays and b) were the absolute most terrifying thing you'd ever seen.
Asked why he chose to tackle the project, Bowers replies simply: "I don’t know, man, why is the sky blue? Why do saxophones make jazz? Why are saxophones gold?" Well said, Mr. Bowers. Well said.
You can find a few more Garf-ied Pokémon below, as well as on Bowers' Instagram and Tumblr pages.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
