Reiga

Who is Reiga?

I'm Reiga and drawing Pokemon is pretty cool. Around 2016 I started getting into digital art and accidentally discovered the Art room on Pokemon Showdown! and from there ended up joining Smogon. I enjoy using Smogon as a platform to improve my art and to use it to help the community.

Smogon Biography

I joined Smogon in 2013 when I was like 10 and didn't know it was against the rules and wanted to do an RMT for a dumb team I made (which I never posted for that matter) but then my account pretty much died. Come early 2016, I returned here as an artist and slowly worked on my craft, and by early 2017 I was accepted as an Approved Artist! From there I worked mostly on art for Smogon's Social Media, and even won the design for CAP 23 Pajantom, eventually earning my shiny li'l artist badge.

Outside of Art I try to keep up a bit with the CAP subforum but am pretty bad at keeping up with anything metagame wise (whoops).

Art Preferences

I almost exclusively do art with my Wacom Intuos Comic on Clip Studio Paint. I'd say my best quality in art is likely my color direction and shading, which is good since those are probably my favorite part of drawing anything. I originally hated that what I did always ended up being cute-ish but nowadays I fully embrace the cute and poppy look my artstyle employs.
