"It has been a long time. Did you miss me?"

And here he is. BUP version of Danny, who was the crooked thief sableye from Random Doom series. Here, he's a Crystal wearing some... groovy clothing. I wonder what's up with that. None the less, I'm sure we can expect no good from him in this universe too.

Now here's some fun facts!

1. As a sableye, in later works, I drew him with spots all over his body. These were random, but I always made sure to draw one spot above his left eye. I made sure to keep that in this design too and gave Danny a mole above his left eye. 

2. I've included the old "windows to your soul" drawing here. You might remember it and me wondering who the Crystal in the image was. Well, that's the very first draft of BUP Danny. The very first idea of him I had was him being older and a bit more... "tired" and depressed character who's looking after Merry. But I dropped that and he's still the insane gremlin we all know and love now.

3. Danny being a Crystal was teased looong time ago. Remember this drawing?

Yep, that's a crystal ball he's holding.

Edit: I noticed I've been inconsistent on how I draw Crystals' eyes. Sometimes the X is just the pupil and sometimes it's the whole iris. I think the idea was that it's supposed to be the pupil... So he's not supposed to have special eyes or anything. Oops

There he is! There's the gremlin! I did wonder about the crystal ball in that picture, but I honestly never figured that was him in the "windows to your soul". Like you say, the tired look didn't really strike me as... "him", if that makes sense (even though BUP is about mixing things up). And I LOVE the opalescent shirt collar and shoes! I don't know why, but it kinda makes me feel like he picked them on purpose? Like, if they were just normal-coloured then he would kinda just blend in with the crowd, but him having them is kind of... for lack of a better comparison, it strikes me as a bit of a "gentleman thief's calling card" sort of thing, like it's saying, "you didn't get robbed by just ANYONE... you got robbed by I, Danny!" (If that makes any sense, of course.) One can only hope Merry turns out to be just as gauche as her partner in crime, ha ha!

While I am not familiar with Random Doom or Pokémon in general, Danny looks and reads like the kind of guy who would be a member of Team Opaline!

Nice to see Danny again! If that drawing is considered a long time ago then I'm ancient. I remember when FTLOLD ended... I love his design here. Kind of gives me a bit of a Mark Hamill Joker vibe. Which I suppose is appropriate. That's always the vibe I got from his Sableye form too.
