Pokémon Conquest Should Have Looked Like This

by Kyle Hilliard on Jun 23, 2012 at 10:02 AM

Pokémon Conquest takes place in feudal Japan (we think), and it would have been amazing if it looked closer to the art featured here.

Conquest is a pretty good game, but it never seemed to fully embrace its feudal Japan setting. You can check out our review of the game here, and our Pokémon Conquest Test Chamber here, where we try to figure out what exactly is going on in the game much to Lady Reiner's dismay.

The art was posted by Reddit user CaptChuckles, but I'm not sure if he or she was the actual artist. In any case, it certainly looks awesome.

UPDATE: Reader Todd Hansen was nice enough to point me to the original artist of this great Pokémon artwork. Jed Henry is the talented illustrator and you can check out more of his work by clicking here.
