Illustrator Makes Pokémon Versions of Presidential Candidates: See the Drawings
As the 2016 presidential election gets more heated, it's nice to remember that sometimes we can have a little fun with the candidates. Illustrator Alex Hirsch, creator of Disney XD's animated series Gravity Falls, did that with some spot-on, Pokémon-inspired reinterpretations.
Naturally, Bernie Sanders becomes "Burnie" represented by an adolescent Charmander, Hillary Clinton becomes "HillarFree" as a regal Butterfree, Donald Trump becomes "Schmuck" as a grimy Muk, and, of course, Ben Carson is "Carzzzon" as a sleepy Snorlax.
