Here's a little Newgrounds AU where all the characters in stuff like Pico's School and in this case Tankmen are Pokémon. And that's litterally it. It's just really self indulgent (there's also a Mystery Dungeon AU where everyone is the same Pokémon they are in this AU but instead of it just being the normal stories there's more it's actually got its own plot where Boyfriend's gotta stop some things but shush)

Now for the cool stuff. I made Captain a Raichu because Lt. Surge uses primarily a Raichu as his Pokémon (and Raichu is also cooler than Pikachu). It just seems really fitting for him to be an electric rat that, according to the Pokedex, can produce enough electricity to cause an Indian Elephant to faint. Steve is Azumarill because that's the evolution of Marill, which was rumored to be Pikablue, another version of Pikachu and a secret Pokémon in the first games before News on Gold and Silver reached the west. And Raichu is the evolution of Pikachu so...

The reason why Commander and Tim are Manetric and Arcanine respectively is not as cool as the reasons I had for Captain and Steve. I just thought Commander would look cool as Manetric and be a good Pokémon to rival Raichu, he can also Mega Evolve, which I would like to draw later. And if Captain and Steve are mice things (Steve is technically a rabbit thing but whatever) and Commander is a dog (I think) then Tim should also be a dog. And he's fluffy :)

But yea it's Pokémon but with guns and swearing (affectionate)
