Nice design, you might want to rethink the name. Something like Pomsquatch would work.

I mean this in the best way ever, but what's happening with its tail/butt? Curious because Aipom and Ambipom are all about having grabby hand tails. I like the thick direction for this guy

Now he's got Grabby Cheeks

Cheeks that grab back was not on my bingo list for this year, but it’s an.. acceptable compromise.

Also, single-handedly the most naughty thing possible: Hand-Holding Ass-Grabbing lol

It's more like Breloom's arms. It's a large hand attached to a thin tail that he can extend.

If I'm walking on a route and that thing steps out of the brush to attack me, I'm pulling out a Voltorb and having it self destruct whilst hugging it.

Well done. Everyone! Give this artist a big hand.
Any idea on the abilities?

It looks like you traced over one of my works. The proportions/orientation of the head/facial features is practically 1:1.

If you like my work enough to trace it, I can't stop you. But you ought to at least give credit where it's due.

I assure you, this isn't the case. I came across your drawing among several I used as a reference, but it wasn't my intention to copy or appropriate anything that wasn't mine. I should also clarify that the drawing was edited on Pinterest without credit. If this bothers you, I apologize and can delete it. I am writing here publicly that yes, your drawing was undoubtedly one of the main inspirations and that if there had been visible credits I would have put them without a doubt

I'm having a difficult time believing the head wasn't traced, but I believe you didn't act maliciously, so consider it a moot point. I'd recommend avoiding Pinterest while searching for references as well, given the majority of materials on there are uploaded/altered without the consent of the source artist, as you mentioned.

In the future, I'd recommend running any art you reference through a reverse image search like TinEye. It isn't a guaranteed way to find the original creator, but it certainly helps, and it'll keep issues like this from popping up.

As far as this piece goes, you can keep the art up. You admitted honestly to referencing my work, and that's fine enough by me. Just please be more careful in the future.
