The Johto Redrawn collaborative project is a pixel art re-imagining of the Johto region, from the Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal games, released between 1997 and 2001 on Gameboy and Gameboy Color.
The goal of the project was to redraw the entire Johto region in the contirbutors' own sprite styles, not unlike a reanimation collab.
It was started and coordinated by pixel artists audrey, Dewdneym, Foofarawr and PJ user Zaebucca!
The project has now reached a close, so you can look at the whole map on its dedicated website:

Don't forget to comment on the pieces you like!
Not only does a comment have the potential to make the artist's day, if you post a lot you'll win one of the fancy new trophies
And February's most favourited award goes to:
Wolfenoctis
