Minish are smol and cute creatures that are only visible to well behaved children.

They are based of Korpokkur, a race of small people from the Folklore of the Ainu people, that inhabited northern Japan a long time ago.

2. Newest OC

Konrunonno is me newest OC!! She's a Demon Slayer OC, and she uses Ice Breathing. She is descended from the Ainu, an indigenous group of people from Hokkaido. I pair her with Rengoku, and I accidently made her while I was listening to AmaLee's ENG cover of Homura

Have some wolf breeding.

Younger Ainu and Lupus look pretty different. This is how they'd look early on in their marriage in the 1400's and man... Ainu looks more feral, and Lupus looks like a handsome young man.

I wonder if Lupus will gather any fangirls. Lol

I’m seeing some chatter claiming characters are wearing “Ainu-influenced” clothing & tho I don't really follow Pokemon I have to say - that's quite a reach (IMHO). There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about what these characters are wearing that says “Ainu” to me. 🧵

The outfits worn in Pokémon Legends are remeniscent of Ainu patterns and clothing. You can see similarities in the straw footwear, and also the patterns found on the sleeves and breast. The scarves are a more modern take on the need for warm clothing in the frozen north.

Basculegion seems to be based on salmon. The main clue is the fact that it travels upstream. Salmon were and are very important to the Ainu people, and are known as cep (チェㇷ゚) in Ainu. Unfortunately salmon fishing rights have caused a lot of conflict between Ainu & Wajin…

Ainu doesn't have the chest, but she has the spirit and that's what matters.

Congratulations for 22k+! 💕

I’m Ainu/Moni and thanks Genshin Impact (especially XiaoVen 🙈) my long lost motivation to draw come back. I missed it so much. My goal? Make people happy with my art.

Super late night/early morning tweet that I'm making because I'm bored.
The official chest size tier list from smallest to biggest goes like this.

Ainu, Lisette, Nemesis, Lyra, and Kiriki.

I'll have a new character sheet posted later today.

Have some cute Lisette face for now.

-"Sumari" (1974-76), but he had to make significant changes to the concept at the last minute based on advice from the Ainu.
(Note: Sumari is a story set in Hokkaido in the Meiji time, portraying a former samurai known as 'sumari' (fox in Ainu language).)

Fukuro's design with the Ainu patterning definitely shouts "Ainu" to me.

In Sinnoh, it's not just locations that are symbolic, but also the Pokémon you can encounter. For example, you can find Octillery on Sinnoh's coast because of Atkorkamui (アッコㇿカムイ), a giant red octopus kamui that is believed by the Ainu to reside in Hokkaido’s Uchiura Bay.
