What's that in the tall grass~?

Hello, Nail Friends!

It's dangerous out there without a pokémon! Wild oddish are in the grass! But can you tell which is a pokémon and which is just a plant?

Hint: one of these are pokémon! (the one you can barely see!)
Take it away, Dex!

"Oddish. The "weed" pokémonDuring the day, it keeps its face buried in the ground. At night, it wanders around sowing its seeds." (Source: http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/oddish)

Thanks.

That's RIGHT! It's week one of the Pokémon nail challenge! Hosted by yours truly and Sharra from The Blahg, this challenge is a pokémon a week from each of the different types. This week is Grass-type pokémon and I chose Oddish! (He was a very popular little guy this week, scoring 1st place in number of nails he adorned!)

And he's SO happy to see you!
For this mani I used:
a teeny paintbrush
China Glaze Liquid Leather
Cult Nails Manipulative
Sinful Colors Snow Me White
China Glaze Salsa
Zoya Shawn
Sinful Colors Innocence
Zoya Skylar
China Glaze Aqua Baby!



Oddish always has 5 leaves and the middle one has this little tilt to it, like it slicked it back! I drew more oddish on my left hand than the one oddish on my right thumb. (pictures? I don't have any...but it's just the leaves. Picture time!


I've  had two customers FREAK out over these this week.
The nail challenge has just started, and while we're going to go in order, we aren't being strict about how long it takes! You still have time to join! ^_^



Make sure to check out the amazing pokémon nails from the other participants this week



and as always...

until next time, nail friends!
same nail polish time, same nail polish channel!
