SO I WANTED TO DRAW RIOLU. Okay, so, see, to learn a new character or species, I gotta draw from reference to "get" them. So, here're some riolu I drew from other peoples' art! And the links to that art. Which is awesome, you should go look at it!

Other than that, we've got some phonemes, for working on an animation. I've done lip sync exactly once before this, so animating someone actually talking is still really weird for me!
