Our Times Square billboard was a modern riff on the "Guess That Pokémon" motif from the original 90's cartoon so many of us grew up watching. The IP restrictions kept us from animating any part of the Pokémon IP or going too deep into their history, so to be able to pull off something so nostalgic and iconic felt like a big win. 
We hired an illustrator to create the background artwork for our hero social assets. Each unique background was inspired by the natural environment of each Pokémon - Charizard, Dragonite, Rayquaza and Roaring Moon. 
We also made some OLV's and graphic social assets that were made to feel like organic content. Que the binder meme and unboxing Tik Tok.
