PokéNatomy

PokéNatomy is an unofficial anatomical art project, re-imagining Pokemon through the lens of modern biology. So far over 251 Pokémon have been completed, with full-page anatomical illustrations for each creature as well as detailed descriptions of their biology, behavior, and abilities.
​
The project was designed to clarify and explain diverse scientific concepts like DNA, body systems, hereditary traits, and adaptation all through the wonder and weirdness of classic Pokémon characters!
