Despite the unbridled success of Pokémon Go, it is indeed still possible to find adult humans who have never seen a Pokémon character in their life. Enter Sam (known on Reddit as "netwoodle"): An artist who decided to offer up his talents to fans of Pokémon, despite knowing nothing about the game.
He submitted a post to /r/ICanDrawThat (a community created for artists who want to doodle the ideas of other Redditors) that said: "Give me a name and I'll doodle your Pokémon. It can be an actual Pokémon or one that exists only in your imagination. Honestly, I won't know the difference."
INSIDER caught up with Sam to learn more about his Pokémon doodles and what is now the highest-voted post on /r/ICanDrawThat of all time.

The inspiration for his offer came from Sam's penchant for doodling "nonsense words."
"Although I really enjoy doodling, I'm not one of those people that can draw absolutely anything," Sam tells INSIDER. "As long as I keep away from trying to draw something that has ever existed, I do OK."
Sam was never into Pokémon, but knew enough to realize the character names are "more or less nonsense words."
