Pokemon Art Academy, the fusion of two of Nintendo's popular series, is coming to 3DS on October 24.

Nintendo announced the date today, in a bare-bones announcement that reiterated the basic gist behind the game. You can follow a series of instructions to learn how to draw Pokemon, with lessons ranging from simple shapes to advanced shading and blending techniques. You can even unlcok special lessons with Mega-Evolved Pokemon.  You can also share your best artwork to the Miiverse or save to an SD card to print it out.
