One of my recent obsessions that I have been preoccupied with to the point that it rivals all other obsessions in my life is Tiger and Bunny. Tiger and Bunny is a 2011 anime about heroes. Set in a fictional future American city, certain citizens have powers and use them to fight crime on live TV! It's got a great plot and is exciting and well-paced, but what really got me into it were the characters. If you're wondering why I'm talking about this on my Pokémon blog, it's because Pixiv user 結衣 has created amazing pieces of fan art featuring Tiger and Bunny characters with Pokémon!
Many of the Tiger and Bunny heroes use elemental attacks (fire, ice, etc), and 結衣 has paired up each of them with an appropriate Pokémon as well as a matching attack. My translation of the artist's original title is below each image in bold. Click on the images to go to the Pixiv page.
