Few franchises have an unquestionable staple in main stream society, two of which are Pokemon and Game of Thrones, so it seems only natural that the culmination of those two entities would result in something that's truly awesome, which is a game of thrones banner inspired by Pokemon.
Artist Cami Sanders created a mash-up of Game of Thrones and Pokemon to produce these amazing illustrations of Pokemon GOT-inspired banners. The banners feature Charizard,Tentacruel, Luxray, Mightyena and Sawsbuck. One can only imagine what it would be like if those two series actually did collide with another. The blood, gore and death in the HBO series will be an obvious juxtaposition to the cute and tame Japanese series.
