Seemingly without cause or reason, Pokemon showed up on Beta Bridge today. They are now joining Winnie the Pooh, who over a lonely winter break of keeping vigil on the bridge, was preserved in this repaint. My guess is that the Pooh painters and Pokemon painters are one in the same, based on the amount of artistic detail given to each.

When I swung by in the morning it was only partially completed:
I don’t blame them for getting frozen out, it was only 18F when I came by, so the overnight low must have been pretty frigid. Here was the completed version in late afternoon:
I believe that is a Pikachu, a Squirtle, and a Wigglypuff amongst some other Pokemon there, Pokeballs not to go unmentioned. Apparently they are here to wish students a happy new semester. I think this big’n might be my favorite:
