Need some artistic inspiration? Look no further!

Ever since the advent of Inktober, October has become one of those months where artists from all across the community embark on a set of prompt based artistic challenges. Prompt lists of all kinds pop up around this time of year ranging from Halloween themed to various fandom specific lists. Pokémon is, of course, no exception, with its vastly creative community coming up will all sorts of challenges for this spooky season. So if you’re looking for a set of challenges and prompts to take on this October and want to make it Pokémon, look no further! We’ve got three different challenges for you created by the Pokémon community that you can partake in this October 2021!

First up is #PokeOCtober! This challenge, created by Reizerou-Arts on Tumblr, has two different prompt lists for you to choose from. Participants can take on a 31 day or a 4 week set of challenges depicting their Pokémon OCs. While these prompts are definitely more geared towards participants with Pokémon trainer OCs, they’re also vague enough that fans with Pokémon Mystery Dungeon or similar type OCs can participate as well, with themes like “Partner” being applicable to both a trainer’s partner and a mystery dungeon partner. #PokeOCtober is a new challenge developed just this year so we’ll be sure to check back later this month to show off some of the cool artwork that is set to come from this set of prompts.

Returning as the classic set of October based Pokémon prompts, Ookamarii‘s Poketober prompt list is ready for you to tackle this year. This list features a set of 31 prompts for you to take inspiration from and is open to all kinds of Pokémon OCs whether it be humans or trainers. This prompt list is definitely a lot less Pokémon-centric than #PokeOCtober and, as such, could theoretically be used for non-Pokémon based drawings too if that’s where the inspiration took you. As previously mentioned, this trend is also somewhat of an established classic that we actually highlighted last year so you can expect to see great things from it again this year no doubt.

?? Introducing #PokemonOCtober , where you make up and draw one trainer OC who specializes in one type for the entire month of October! ??
You can draw some of them if you want instead of all 18 too, but I did this mainly to bring up my designing motivation again.
Have fun! ? pic.twitter.com/D7GfEg93wf

Finally, for our third and final featured challenge, introducing #PokemonOCtober! Created by Twitter user, Moriartsu, this trend encourages artists to make up a Pokémon trainer OC who specializes in a specific type and then draw them throughout the entire month of October. This one is less so of a prompt list and moreso of a general challenge, but the idea seems like a lot of fun since it really pushes artists to tap into their design skills a bit when created this trainer. Additionally, because this challenge isn’t a prompt list, it’s compatible with the other challenges listed above, so feel free to mix and match and have some fun!
We’ll be looking back at these challenges towards the end of the month to highlight some of the amazing artwork that will come out of all of this. We’re looking forward to seeing what everyone contributes this year so be sure to tag us if you want us to see it, because you might just end up in our October Art Challenge Highlights Reel.
