Before It's Too Late...

I'm officially free!

This is a picture I started a month ago, but I didn't like the result and decided to redraw the whole thing. It was pretty complicated (mostly due to Ash's angle, a pain, to be sure).

As you would have guessed, this picture is inspired by the second Pokémon movie, The Power of One (one of my favs ) and also by a Spanish song sung by Pastora Soler ("La mala costumbre," "That Bad Habit"). You can listen to the song here: [link]

And I made a translation for the lyrics for those who need one:

<sub>We all have that bad habit of not showing our love enough,
not showing what we feel to the people close to us.
We all have that bad habit of missing what we love
only when we lost it, that's when we yearn for it.
We all have the bad habit of wasting our time
searching for so many vain goals and fake dreams.
We all have that bad habit of not appreciating what matters the most,
and that's exactly when you realize how many things are there that you don't even need.

Chorus:
Today, I would give you all those kisses that sometimes I didn't, thinking they were just part of our routine.
Today, I would give you words full of love and the caresses that I missed.
What we feel and we don't say, but wants to be said out loud.
Please, listen before it's too late,
before time takes me away from you.
Today, I would give you all those kisses that sometimes I didn't, thinking they were just part of our routine.
Today, I would give you words full of love and the caresses that I missed.
What we feel and we don't say, but wants to be said out loud.
Please, listen before it's too late,
before time takes me away from you.

We all have that bad habit of making up excuses
to avoid revealing our soul and assuming our guilt.
We all have that bad habit of not appreciating what matters the most,
and that's exactly when you realize how many things are there that you don't even need.

[Repeat chorus twice]</sub>

I think this song fits Pokéshipping quite well, considering how many times Ash has been about to die without knowing Misty's feelings.

Hope you like it! And have a nice summer.
