Diglett

No. 050 Diglett.
The Red pokedex says
Lives about one yard underground where it feeds on plant roots. It sometimes appears aboveground.

Diglett is an object of many pokemon jokes so fitted well for my red nose day special. Not only that but he has a red nose. You are supposed to do something funny for money and i think diglett is funny so if you like him, donate here and if you don't like him, donate anyway beacuse red nose day and comic relief does a lot of good work.
I am naming him after the comic relief poster boy
Lenny
This year was the first where the red nose has toes, according to bulbapedia it looks like diglett may have toes too! 



The next pokemon is back to the random list and is No.068 Machamp

Gloom

No. 044 Gloom.
The Red pokedex says
The fluid that oozes from its mouth isn't drool. It is a nectar that is used to attract prey. 

I didn't know that it wasn't dribble, I still think it is cute, if a little gross. I realised that the oddish evolutions are one of my favourites when I saw just how similar they are to the Bulbasaur family.
 My gloom took a bit of work to get the spherical look to all the parts so I thought I would post how I made the little spheres on his head to give people an idea of what they could try to do themselves.
Three leaf shaped with 120 degree points, sewn inside out, turned out, stuffed and sewn up

And here he is, named after the Jack Wills Bag I found and am using to keep my homeworks in:

The next pokemon is a special one for red noseday:

Please donate because it is a great cause and as a clue, the next pokemon has a red nose
