Another all-time favourite Pokémon design, my friend #Malamar sports an entrancing new #MegaEvolution in the upcoming Legends: Z-A game. 🧬
For this #fanart #illustration I emphasized the darkly menacing nature of the topsy-turvy Overturning #Pokémon. 🦑

library apps should have a feature where when you're queuing for a loan you can see the reading progress of the current lender of the book and you can message them things like "a little slow aren't we?" "reading hard or hardly reading?" and things of that nature
