I suppose that this Pokémon isn't that great at self-portraiture, but it makes for an ingenious tattoo cover up.

This mushy butterfly transformed to a majestic deer in a field of beautiful flowers is definitely an upgrade. In fact, I might even count that original terrible tattoo as a blessing, because otherwise the new one might never have been done!
