What's your favorite 'weird' artwork?

[ArcticLapras]

So going through my collection I found this Tangela card that I never paid much attention to, untill now… There’s a Jynx in the corner.

I love it, Jynx and Tangela on one ‘regular’ card. Madness.

I’ve always loved this hallucinating mewtwo, especially the pp fingers/hands.

I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite, but it’s defintely a weird artwork:

This Shedinja with a literal dead person in the background:

In the paired Ninjask artwork the (possibly same?) person is alive:

To quote the Pokémon index for the Shedinja that explains the dead person:

@professorstephen

Pokemon Ruby Pokedex entry - “SHEDINJA’s hard body doesn’t move - not even a twitch. In fact, its body appears to be merely a hollow shell. It is believed that this POKéMON will steal the spirit of anyone peering into its hollow body from its back.”

And to quote Bulbapedia regarding Ninjask’s and Shedinja’s weird evolution:

When Nincada evolves into Ninjask, it can also evolve into Shedinja simultaneously, which appears in an empty Poké Ball.

Greetz,

I thought Ninjask was playing basketball

Idk about favorite, but definitely weird

[xileets]

I’d say the weirdest art is likely to be a komiya art, right?

I’m gonna pick this though. Lots of people don’t like it, but I think it’s great, and also weird… Fish eye close up NOSE by Arita

But here’s a runner up: Fallout New Vegas Haunter by Komiya… Or IS it New Vegas? But it’s pokemon…

New thread name: which Komiya art is the most out of pocket

I love this illustration, but I know a lot of people find it disturbing

[c0ll3ct0r]

It often takes me a second or two to adjust to the fact that the body is turned against the viewer, not towards.

Tentacruel is…slapping a Thunderbolt??

When I started collecting again back in 2015/16 I saw two bootleg artworks that really stuck with me. I wanted them badly but thankfully didn’t manage to find anything to buy, so I directed my money into something more productive lol.

.
The infamous Sableye, the charizard of bootlegs

.
Then, Alien Celebi, based on extremely weird illustrations from Beckett magazine:

Whether it is bootlegs or authentic cards, Psyduck always gets violated. I am guessing you are numb to everything when you are dealing with constant migraine.

Cheers!

Obligatory Baba Raichu mention. One of the most amazing, and sorta weird, artworks out there

[jabby]

Ooyama’s Pikachu:

Also, Vending Series Chansey:

Leg

[rtas]

Left leg of the forbidden one…

[dromanyte]

Rocket Returns has some weird artwork … but my 2 favourites are definitely Grimer and Houndour … Grimer looks like he’s over and Houndour looks weirdly happy after cutting an apple in 2

[Taigataipan]

I don’t own one of these, still seeing a flying Dunsparce is a sight that makes me scratch my head ( especially because it’s portrayed as cave dweller in early games and majority of artworks ).

[dromanyte]

I have to add this one …
He looks like a dog running in the middle of the park

[nic]

personally have a lot of favorites… these are my favorite that I own, though!

and THIS stupid poke dude that I have been hunting for a reasonably priced psa 9 for a long time now. (hmu if u know of one or have it pls)
