In a post to Reddit, FrigginBoomT shared their love forthe Kanto region Pokemon, Poliwag and all of its evolutions. The artwork is fairly detailed to be a wood carving and captures the emotion and personality of each evolution well with the facial expressions of each evolution standing out in particular.
OtherPokemonfans replied to the post and most of those replies were compliments to the artist on a job well done. One user, however, was off-put by the sizing disparity between Politoed and Poliwrath. Another member stated they had never seen an angry Politoed before but loved the work regardless.
