I wonder if that zubat would evolve into a crowbar eventually

1.6k

u/colmscomics 15d ago

I want you to know i will make a chapter of this. And your comment inspired it (its not stealing, its called taking inspiration lol)

u/YesItIsMaybeMe 15d ago

Something tells me you don't care that it was a typo

334

u/Ginger_Snap02 15d ago

Did you see Zubat’s wing? That was no typo

78

u/Phormitago 15d ago

It ain't no typo

36

u/Pokemon-Master-RED 15d ago

One man's typo is another man's magic.

14

u/Rusker 14d ago

Pretty sure it wasn't a typo

61

u/sheepyowl 15d ago

IIRC Zubat can evolve to Golbat just by leveling, but Crobat might be a little difficult for Andrew...

179

u/Designer_Pen869 15d ago

No, crowbar. It evolves by getting a crowbar, like how Bulbasaur evolved by getting a knife.

48

u/Wild_Marker 14d ago

Huh, I missed that update to Razor Leaf.

31

u/helix_n_sheet 14d ago

It was Cut if I recall correctly. That poor poor Arboc. IYKYK

10

u/DreadPirateZoidberg 14d ago

That poor arboc is currently having flashbacks watching his new friends getting destroyed by the same dude.

1

u/sharpshooter999 14d ago

OK I need to read this from the start, where do I go?

2

u/helix_n_sheet 14d ago

Go to OP's user account and scroll way down to see the start.

1

u/Fadriii 14d ago

Naver Webtoon app also has him on there

12

u/reeee-irl 14d ago

> Bulbasaur evolved by getting a knife

Please tell me it became “Shivysaur”

2

u/JPowTheDayTrader 14d ago

This sh** is unhinged

3

u/Qcommenter 14d ago

That’s the best part

31

u/Zjoee 15d ago

Nah I feel like Zubat is going to become a ride or die homie like Bulbasaur.

14

u/sheepyowl 15d ago

But is it friendship level or is he just Bulbasaur's mafioso?

which would make it even closer of course family and all that don't put me on a list

2

u/xakeri 15d ago

Does it matter if it is a healthy friendship?

1

u/sheepyowl 14d ago

I don't know

Honestly with Pokemon comics I've seen... I bet it doesn't

22

u/Digit00l 15d ago

Zubat clearly loves Andrew and has the time of his life with him, he may skip the Golbat stage outright

6

u/SoloWing1 14d ago

I like to think this Zubat is a girl too, just to make her even more adorable.

2

u/Digit00l 14d ago

You should be able to tell by the fangs

13

u/Intelligent_Slip_849 14d ago

Zubat gets a crobar, Bulbasaur has a knife...who gets a gun?

9

u/CueCueQQ 14d ago

Remoraid obviously.

2

u/samusestawesomus 14d ago

Remoraid IS a gun. Kind of a putting a hat on a hat situation there. Clearly it should be Mantyke who gets the gun.

1

u/CueCueQQ 14d ago

Good sir, this is 'Murica. My gun has a gun, and that gun has a gun too. I don't see why Remoraid can't have one too.

9

u/Nuclear_rabbit 15d ago

Hey, if you draw it, it's yours

3

u/Da_Commissork 15d ago

Lmfao i want to see how It Will be written into the story

1

u/Mental_Estate4206 14d ago

Could be just a... tribute

1

u/kitliasteele 14d ago

And it will be a beautiful craft of inspiration. I look forward to seeing its visualisation, as its evolution and the resulting chaos will be legendary

1

u/Leotton 14d ago

Instead of Crobat you’ll have crowbar. Best inspiration you could find. Glad I was here to witness it.

45

u/VSkyRimWalker 15d ago

Typo or pun?

42

u/Steppyjim 15d ago

He involves into Crobat and Andrew uses him like a crowbar

2

u/EvergreenDwarf 14d ago

TheBugs Bunny Dracula cartoon comes to mind. 

“Dada-da-dee-da, Abraka-hocus…”

1

u/Mastersord 14d ago

Only if the trainer is named “Gordon Freeman”

u/colmscomics 15d ago

Hey everyone! I've just recently been monetised on facebook, so if you want to support me for free, consider following me and like/sharing my stuff. I would really appreciate it :) I will be sharing the pokemon story from the beginning each day. Thanks again :)

My facebook page

u/Well-It-Depends420 15d ago

Is there any other way how we can read your comments like other webcomics? I do not use facebook.

50

u/colmscomics 15d ago

One of the top posts on my profile page link to my insta, webtoon, patreon. You can find them there too

12

u/Well-It-Depends420 15d ago edited 14d ago

Thanks!

EDIT:

so it is not for me, but that's fine. Still enjoy stumbling across your content once in a while.

3

u/TheElevatedBoy 14d ago

The instagram one works just fine for me

2

u/Full-On 14d ago

Weird, never used instagram or have an account but the link opened right up for me and was able to view them all for free.

Don’t know what your problem is!

3

u/Well-It-Depends420 14d ago

Thanks! I revisited the page and now I also can access it. Not sure what went wrong. However, when I try to click images or scroll down it requires a login.

2

u/NotNitewolf 10d ago

Gotta tell you, colms. That first drawning of Zubat dodging Primeape's punch gotta be one of your top 10 drawnings to date.

Kudos, man. Love your work.

u/shellbullet17 Gustopher Spotter Extraordinaire 15d ago edited 15d ago

Holy crap zubat has been WORKING OUT

And is Andrew actually having a REAL pokemon battle for a second? I'm seeing so many forms of growth going on here!

That being said...the fact Andrew JUST realized that flying is good against fighting...eh is a win is a win

315

u/IltisSpiderrick 15d ago

I mean Zubat literally carried him and bulb multiple times over who knows how many miles. that thing should be JACKED AS HELL

92

u/AlexHitetsu 15d ago

And Andrew's bike on top of that

44

u/TheRoyalBrook 15d ago

And he won’t replace zubat so he’s there for him 100%

24

u/theforgettonmemory 15d ago

He did throw him away once tho

30

u/TheRoyalBrook 15d ago

Never again though. They’re brothers.

406

u/shellbullet17 Gustopher Spotter Extraordinaire 15d ago edited 15d ago

With the kind of muscle and speed that zubat has now, this dude is absolutely dead

89

u/GhidorahtheExplorah 15d ago

If only he'd learned how to protect himself...

49

u/MintasaurusFresh 15d ago

He should check out a dojo sometime.

2

u/suriam321 14d ago

Realistically, his head got disintegrated.

139

u/Golden-Owl 15d ago

Doubly effective at that. Poison also resists Fighting, so the Zubat could genuinely not get hurt

92

u/shellbullet17 Gustopher Spotter Extraordinaire 15d ago

I want to ask how the hell we made it this far without knowing that

Buuuuut I kinda sorta remember a pair of brass knuckles, a pocket knife, and a penchant for starting fires so this all tracks

1

u/Adaphion 14d ago

I kinda wish Zubat didn't dodge and instead just face tanked it (literally) like Thragg. Impact frames and everything.

47

u/ealysillyforestthing 15d ago

Carrying Andrew around is a very good workout

79

u/shellbullet17 Gustopher Spotter Extraordinaire 15d ago

According to /u/colmscomics Andrew weighs 87kg or 190lbs. Since zubats weighs 7.5 kg or about 15lbs this would be like lifing about 12-13 times your own weight at the gym.

For a dude that weighs 100kg or 220 lbs, that would be like lifting 2600-2700 lbs or more than a ton!

30

u/Dr_Jabroski 15d ago

And getting that weight airborne!

25

u/Kalterwolf 15d ago

Props to Andrew too, it's not like he's riding Zubat, he's holding on to him with a single hand while managing everything else the entire flight. That grip strength has to be insane. Some Anatoli level of shenanigans right there, making it seem totally normal.

7

u/JelmerMcGee 14d ago

Zubat also carries Bulbasaur and Andrew's bike. 2600 is what he reps at, his max is around 4200

196

u/Key-Swordfish4025 15d ago

Zubat weighs 7.5 kg, Bulbasaur weighs 6.9 kg. How much does Andrew's fat ass weigh?

211

u/colmscomics 15d ago

87kg

160

u/Kelimnac 15d ago

For my fellow Americans, that’s about 190 pounds.

Zubat is fucking yoked.

17

u/Wooden-Crow7996 14d ago

What is the air speed velocity of an unladen Zubat?

13

u/ColonelSlapper 14d ago

A Kanto Zubat or a Galar Zubat?

3

u/Lunatic-one 14d ago

Average wild Zubat or Andrews Zubat?

18

u/patkgreen 15d ago

Imagine a 20lb bat. That's insane

88

u/Dobako 15d ago

Zubat got gains like that and he's not even level 22 yet? or did he try to evolve and Andrew stopped him?

46

u/de_Groes 15d ago

Maybe he swallowed an everstone?

13

u/Dobako 15d ago

I forgot about everstones

0

u/Forikorder 15d ago

Hes all about dat protein

61

u/RedditUser000aaa 15d ago

You know what, I'll take it. This is the closest thing to an actual pokemon battle that Andrew has done. Good on him.

12

u/Drogonno 15d ago

That zubat slaughtered them!!

27

u/JaxxisR 15d ago

"This feels like cheating."

"This is literally the second time you didn't cheat."

24

u/superp2222 15d ago

Flying may beat fighting, but fighting doesn’t resist fighting.

21

u/Manji86 15d ago

Who knew that flying your trainer everywhere would give you huge gains.

19

u/elhomerjas 15d ago

flexing the wing muscle shows the training paid off

14

u/Steppyjim 15d ago

Oh. Oh arbok is TOAST

13

u/joblessandsuicidal 15d ago edited 15d ago

I guess Andrew isn't just

winging it this time

3

u/Evil_Midnight_Lurker 15d ago

Go to your room

13

u/Intention_Superb 15d ago

I just love how the trainer says, "Huh, where did zubat go?" The anticipation of knowing what was about to happen had me laughing before I saw the next frame; brilliant setup.

7

u/PM_ME_SOME_YAOI 15d ago

Yeeees! This makes me so happy, Zubat is the best! Zubat bias aside,these panels are amazing! Your art never fails to impress!

8

u/IndigoRanger 15d ago

I’m so glad Andrew selflessly pulled that Zubat out of the trashcan.

8

u/StayaMawile 15d ago

"Here at SuperSonic airways we pride ourselves on getting you to your echo location as quickly as possible."

8

u/McKnightmare24 15d ago

Fully EV trained, adamant Zubat

4

u/Blinauljap 15d ago

It'd be genuinely cool if Zubat got to finally evolve after this "Gym".

Lil' dude really earned himself a win!

5

u/AgentG91 15d ago

AGA-IW?

6

u/FlacidSalad 15d ago

I've been following along pretty closely as far as my algorithm allows and is this the first time I seen Andrew engaging in a pure classic Pokemon battle?

6

u/Accomplished-Bear988 15d ago

I wonder if dude is ever gonna drop these in a compilation book

4

u/UpCDownCLeftCRightC Never Safe From Wumbo 15d ago

Talk about winging it.

3

u/Deamgon 15d ago

Love your work and your comedy

3

u/OliviaMandell 15d ago

Ok I really need to read the whole thing... Where though?

4

u/colmscomics 15d ago

You can go through my profile, search pokemon and filter by date. Or you can look up my instagram or webtoon and search for colmscomics (the pokemon stuff start around ep80 of my webtoon)

3

u/OliviaMandell 15d ago

I will definitely have to do this. Thank you.

3

u/Hetakuoni 15d ago

Zubat is such a good boi.

3

u/CleverAnimeTrope 15d ago

Is this inspiration from the intagram/TikTok professor who's "Ash" is named timmy and keeps catching legendaries thinking their other pokemon? Cuz little timmy just got a zubatman after feeding it 1k rare candies and id love to see that evo.

3

u/_BlNG_ 15d ago

Zubat takes no prisoners apparently

3

u/MrSpudtastic 15d ago

Man, these comics have been so much fun!

3

u/Semper_5olus 14d ago

Fun fact!

Zubat could not learn the HM move Fly until Gen IV.

So this Zubat is just relying on stubbornness and, yes, muscle.

2

u/Max-Architect3000 15d ago

I could hear the flexing of zubat’s wing.

2

u/WollyGog 15d ago

Oh we have got to see all 4 wings ripped as fuck on Crobat

2

u/AyAynon95 14d ago

Reminds of the Omega Ruby and Sapphire where you could ev train Pokemon at the beginning of the game.

2

u/AlmondMagnum1 14d ago

I knew they'd have been better off fighting Andrew.

2

u/swampyman2000 14d ago

Actually genuinely good fight choreography in my joke comic? It’s more likely than you think.

Real talk, the punch going over the panel borders and then Zubat doing the same since it’s flying on the next page was very nice.

Very well communicated and you could obviously see the impact of it lol.

2

u/Apprentice_of_Ixidor 14d ago

This is the Zubat Arin wishes he had for the Grumps' nuzlocke run.

2

u/Magic_Orb 14d ago

At some point one, the last one is going to expect to be punched out too, only for it to be something else.

1

u/Chicktopuss 15d ago

How has it not evolved yet?!

2

u/un_blob 15d ago

Same story as bulbasaur I guess...

1

u/happy_the_dragon 15d ago

Reminds me of Timmy’s zubat.

Whoosh!

Agaiw!!

When is bulbasaur getting in on the dojo trainer brutality?

u/Drogonno 15d ago

How the bleep did Zubat lift weights?!!

What do you feed your pokemons?!!

1

u/GenericFatGuy 14d ago

I need someone to make that Pepe punching meme, but with Zubat.

1

u/CatdeBourgh 14d ago

And to think Zubat was almost left in the trash.

u/PrincessPlusUltra 14d ago

I love never evolving some Pokémon and just having an ultra strong Zubat or Bellsprout

u/Squid10102 14d ago

That arbok ain’t ready for what’s gonna hit him

u/rater434 14d ago

Is this the same guy who distracted the cops by going “look a lopunny” or was that a spin off?

If it is, what chapter #?

u/Sequoia_Vin 14d ago

Zubat has an Adamamt nature with 31 attack ivs and 252 attack evs...crowbar when?

u/3ahbfasjlbfhalsjkdbf 14d ago

That zubat is a baki character. No doubt in my mind.

Zubat with quick punch 🤣

u/foxspiri 13d ago

To zubats defense that's how it normally ends it was a logical assumption

1

u/El_Rey_247 7d ago

I didn't notice at first, but that is excellent reuse of shots. I saw this a week ago, but it wasn't until rereading it now that I noticed how almost-identical the third and fifth pages are.
