This image was inspired by a dream I had last year. In the dream, my cat, Ruby, was playing in the State Championships for the Pokemon Trading Card Game (which I play competitively). She made it all the way to the finals and ended up winning the event with a Nidoking deck. No good Nidoking cards exist right now, so this was almost as ridiculous as the fact that she was playing in the first place. After collecting her trophy and prizes, I grabbed her and tried to hurry away because I was worried everyone would "realize" she was a cat and take away her win. Although in Ruby's defense, she does watch me playtest all the time and loves rolling through the cards and batting at the dice, so she's not a complete novice.
The entire dream was bizarre and entertaining, so I tried to capture this in my image. The juxtaposition of putting a human sized cat into a serious tournament setting is completely absurd... and I love it!
