    Are we looking at the same picture? It’s not that it’s a grin on the cat, it’s that it looks nearly 1-1 traced from Pokemon

      Its a line of white triangles inside a half oval shape. Its the most cut and dry “cartoon sharp teeth smile” design on the planet.

        I can’t find another smiling cat that looks quite like it. I mean, they have the same number of teeth, it looks at least a little bit sus

        Not that I’m going to rag on this company for making a Pokemon that shares a face with Viking Meowth. Fuck Nintendo

          Well it might not be on the internet, but that smile and triangle teeth is how kids usually draw evil smiles when I was a kid. And that predates Pokémon.

          Glowing yellow eyes is such an old cat stereotype that my grandmother finds it cliche, and the pals eyes are a sharper oval. The meowths ovals plateau and flatten more at the top and bottom, while the pals eyes have more of a pointed peak.

          They used a “make shape” tool on some 3D modelling software. Egads, you mean the make shape software is going to make similar shapes?? As if its some sort of, what, algorithmic program?!?
