Pokemon anime characters drawn in the game's style

[danburite]

This thread is ultimately useless, but I was browsing around the Gamefreak website, and I stumbled across concept art of the Pokemon anime characters, in the style of the Pokemon games.

Here's a few samples:

May: (Well, she's essentially Sapphire from the games- or is she Ruby? Eh, you get the idea...) http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/movie05/haru_adv.jpg
Ash: http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/movie05/sato_adv.jpg

Here's the page the images are from- it's the 8th movie page: http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/movie05/2005movie.html

Enjoy!

I want to know, who draw them?

PS: This really seems to be useless, pointless too.

Uhhh they are drawn by Ken Sugimori and he provides the concept art for the Anime since more or less all the characters you see in the anime are originally drawn by him.

Yep, Ken Sugimori.

And although this thread is pretty pointless, it's a lot more interesting than some other threads on these forums.
I mean, it makes good reference for people wanting to do fanart, for example.

Those have been seen countless times, and there are always Sugimori drawing for the Main characters of the Movies. I've seen Sugimori Art of Movie Characters since the 3rd Movie. It's excellent, but a lot of people have already seen it by now.

I don't doubt it. I mean, it's right there on the Gamefreak page, so that is a safe assumption.
But there are people who might find this interesting- for example, if the character bios here on Serebii.net were ever unified into a single art style, or for people doing Sugimori-style fanart.

There's a person on Deviant Art that draws in Sugimori's art style. I've seen it. He/She made a really good picture of a Blaziken drawing.

EDIT: Here's my Blaziken on notebook paper. I submitted it to Deviant Art too.

Heey, some of his stuff ain't too shabby.
There's some pics that look too much like Sugimori originals (same pose, etc) but on the whole, his gallery's pretty good.

Just give it a couple months, and I guarantee it'll be available. Probably in the D/P instruction booklet, too.
