More people need to take the time to look at their faces in freeze frames. They're priceless.
Punch out!! On switch WHEN NINTENDO
(I did use a translator for the languages, so if I got some words wrong, my apologies))
Since the PO fandom uses this chart to show how their ocs are with the other boxer, I thought I’d give it a shot too!
Ramble under cut
Glass Joe!
Why wouldn’t Kirby like him? Joe is such a kind guy, and he shows Kirby the best cafes with the best strawberry shortcakes ever!! They love each other’s company, and they don’t really have a reason to dislike each other. Sure Joe is a little concerned about Kirby fighting these huge guys that can knock him down in one punch, but Kirby is pretty well off. There’s no need to worry
Von Kaiser!
He’s cool with Kirby. Not too swayed by his cuteness, but not too disgusted by his cartoony personality. Kaiser focuses a bit more on Kirby’s small height, unconfirmed age, and his species entirely. Sometimes Kirby would swing by his place to get training, tips, gift giving, or just hanging out! Kirby sees Kaiser as a bigger friend than the other way around.
Disco Kid!
Kirby’s like a little brother to him, AND a best friend too! Disco and Kirby stuck together like glue after their fight and throughout the minor circuit. If Kirby ever has a question or problem, Disco is the first person he’d call! Also, Disco is just a train ride away! They’d hang out together at dance clubs, or at Disco’s house. They never stop smiling when the other is around!
King Hippo!
Given how Hippo lives with Disco for a home, Hippo sees Kirby a lot and really enjoys his presence! Hippo would take Kirby out to fun lil farmers markets and outdoor cafes for funsies and for food! Maybe an eating competition here and there, but only if Disco has the money and/or space. They’re just best friends!
Piston Hondo!
Hondo will never EVER admit he was swayed by Kirby’s cuteness and charm. Hence why he distances himself from the little guy. The least Hondo did to assist Kirby is give him a little advice and Japanese treats for him after fights. Kirby kinda treats Hondo like Meta Knight, which is like Kirby giving Meta space when needed as he’s to as close as he would be now. (Kirby was transported after RTDL and they were all still trying to get accustomed to Meta Knight not wanting them dead.) Hondo and Kirby’s friendship is just…a casual thing.
Bear Hugger!
BEST friends! Bear Hugger is like another Doc to Kirby, but has less time to be with him. Bear is almost always checking on Kirby, and making sure he gets outside when he’s having bad days in or just to see the the Canadian animals in the area!
Great Tiger!
They’re like two peas in a pod! Tiger finds it easy to communicate with Kirby despite not speaking in a language he’s understood or learned. Great Tiger is also the only person who seems out of wack in a way Kirby can relate to. They’re great friends!
Don Flamenco!
Don really tries to make amends with Kirby, but he holds onto grudges like they’d run away if he lets go. He can’t bring himself to fully hate Kirby because he’s cute, he’s too kind, and Kirby brings little presents each time he swings by. Also Carmen LOVE Kirby’s presence, so he mustn’t hate him and make her sad. Kirby just sees Don as a friend though. He knows what it’s like for someone to resent him for just existing, so he tries to be casual and slightly distanced.
Aran Ryan!
Kirby really really tries to be friends with Aran but CANNOT trust him. Aran always acts like friends with Kirby for a few days, and then breaks his trust in some major way. Kirby’s just too gullible and constantly gets back to a little friendship, but then Aran breaks his trust again. Aran just finds Kirby’s inability to not have friends funny, constantly playing dirty little pranks on the oblivious little guy that just wants to be friends with him. It sort of disgusts Aran how friendly Kirby can be with everyone and how everyone always makes amends. He’s just a hater.
Soda Popinski!
Also best friends! Soda is like some super cool big guy to Kirby, and Kirby likes super cool big guys! Kinda like Dedede! Kirby was concerned for Soda after he started drinking like crazy and the scientists tried to distance Kirby from him. Soda likes Kirby! He’s ashamed to admit it, but picking up people that are smaller than him is super fun! And Kirby likes getting picked up, so it was like an immediate friendship.
Bald Bull!
Bald Bull and Kirby’s relationship is pretty average! Kirby kinda looks at Bull like an idol as his boxing match was what inspired him to box too! Bald Bull doesn’t really like being seen as an idol, but lets it slide because Kirby isn’t too overbearing or invasive. Kirby thinks Bull is super cool, but is scared seeing him in the ring.
Super Macho Man!
Can barely remember who Kirby is. He only started to paid attention to him after he lost, but even then he barely cared about Kirby. Kirby had tried to be friends with Macho, but Macho mainly cared about his hot babes and money. The WVBA pays him to show up to the stadiums and box. If it weren’t for that, Macho wouldn’t even care to be there.
Mr. Sandman!
Can’t get over the fact, and never will get over the fact that he’s lost to nothing but mere children in his career. However after the TD match, Sandman began to respect Kirby. He didn’t know his branded attack was the name of Kirby’s home. Being cool with Kirby is the least he could do for him. Kirby still gets a bit confused when Mr. Sandman talks about putting someone to sleep or his home. Overall, they’re cool!
Little Mac…
“Never heard Mac…name a lil…fa..mil..liar…”
Doc Louis!
Literally Kirby’s dad. Kirby is literally Doc’s child. Doc treats Kirby like how he’s treated Mac when he was still there, and Kirby is like the Little Mac that Doc has been missing. Doc has tried to do an eating competition with Kirby, and keeps losing. After every fight, (or just for fun,) Kirby and Doc go out and eat a bunch of chocolate flavored pastries until they’re (Doc) full.
Carmen!
“Mi niña, mi hija! (My girl, my daughter!)” Despite others telling Carmen Kirby is a boy because he’s a boxer and such, Carmen sees Kirby like the daughter she’s never had! Whenever Kirby visits, Carmen is just super happy!
The Ref.
Kirby tries to be friendly towards the Ref, but he just doesn’t talk to him enough. The Ref honestly dislikes any boxer. They’re all crazy and he doesn’t get paid enough to deal with their shenanigans.
HONK HONKKKKK!!! What's this? It's the train with all of the boxers!! Say Hi!! (Check ALT Text to decipher my handwriting cuz I know there are some places people might struggle to read.)
The quality might be bad, and to that I say: Contender and Title Defense Drawings were made in huge gaps in time, AAAAND I'm using my laptop. the next chain of images will be for Dedede, Meta Knight, Taranza, Magolor, Susie, and Elfilin! The entirety of Star Allies might get their own section because it's such a jam packed-game, and I have it play out VERY differently in my AU. Sorry if this post is super long!
I MIGHT be deep into the phase…
Blue - my friend
Pink - me
--------------------
Glass Joe:
Oh I remember this guy, I wonder how much I'll recognize.
My first thought is, he seems spineless.
But the fact we're looking into these characters makes me want to underestimate this guy less, I feel like he could still pull off a knock out if you're caught off guard.
I'm not sure, but I feel like I've seen him make a serious face haha.
Or maybe he really is what he's name describes, made of glass... 😢
Yeah, he is the first opponent after all
Hm, but I won't hate on him though.
If he gets to step onto the ring, then he must have some background.
Although he's reputation probably caused him to be called Glass Joe since he's quite feeble.
Von Kaiser :
Yep, this guy definitely looks like he can pack a punch.
He's posture kind of tells me he's stiff enough to stand his ground, take a hit or two.
And land one heavy blow, but at the same time I feel like he could only pull off one good punch at a time.
He's pose also tells me he likes upper cuts, but that's just me reading too much into it haha.
He has a one shot move in title defense mode, which cause an insta k.o.
Ohhhh, does that mean I guessed pretty good?
Yeah ;3
Nice!
Disco Kid :
A part of me likes the first Von Kaiser over this guy.
But in terms of level of skill, this guy looks less stiff than Kaiser.
I feel like his punches could be weaker than Kaiser, but what would I know.
But I think I'd say the difference in skill is how less stiff he is, he seems loose.
So like he'd be able to pull off more quick moves and is nimble.
Uses plenty of motion techniques with his arms legs and body.
I'm sure he's disco name tells plenty of how much he likes to move his body.
King Hippo:
This guy really feels like the test of skill based on the opponents you've fought so far.
A mini boss in the halfway point.
He looks quite big so making head shots feels like it could be tough, I feel like he doesn't even need to dodge as much with a body as fat and big as that... Feel like he could just tank it.
Alongside that I bet he can deal some lethal total knock out blows.
I know I said he's head seems hard to reach, but I also think you'd do better damage hitting him in the head haha.
The tip of his head looks so smooth and solid, feels like the only place where a solid blow would count.

Jermaine doodles
hey!!! i was just curious about the punch out fankids home lives like what their relationship with their dads is like, if there was some event in their lives that changed them, if they like boxing, etc etc. also i just wanted to say your art is the most gorgeous thing ive ever seen and these fankids are so so pretty 💕💕 anyways thats it 👍
Thank you for the compliment, I appreciate it💕
*Gives you a virtual appreciation*
💕💗💕💗💕💗💕💗✨✨🌟✨🌟✨💖💖💖
Jermaine Kaiser
- Glass Joe - Jermaine is very attach to Joe, he always find comfort around him, this is due to Joe's heartwarming presence that makes Jermaine comfortable around him. Unless if his parents were flirting in front of him..
- Von Kaiser - almost 90% percent of Jermaine's genes were came from this man, Jermaine saw Von as a mentor and saw his strength and discipline as an inspiration, though Von's strict attitude makes Jermaine overwhelmed.
At times, Jermaine didn't want him to go to his college because some secretaries were always gushing about Von...
Viktoriya Popinski
- Soda Popinski - even though she respects him deeply and makes her seriousness fade, she's always annoyed by Soda's overindulge in sodas. Still she admire his strength and confidence.
- Bald Bull - the person Viktoriya was very connect to, Bull's straightforward and very serious nature made Viktoriya respect him and asks him for guidance, Bull, and Soda helped her train to become the best sometimes ( because she's in college so they can't always train her )
Rosalinda Flamenco
- Don Flamenco - both of had a mix of admiration and teasing, Rosalinda values Don's flair while also teasing him for his toupee ( in which Don always scolds her for it ).
- Aran Ryan - very close father and daughter bond, and passed his inner recklessness to her. Rosalinda is very, very attach to him to the point that she acts like him growing up.
Toratsuki and Usharvi Hondo
- Piston Hondo - Toratsuki views Hondo's wisdom and calm demeanor interesting and drew his attitude for him and Usharvi finds comfort and patience as an inspiration for her carefree nature
( Both twins always wonder what happened to his steak house )
- Great Tiger - Toratsuki's admires Tiger's mysticism and cunning nature ( and rapping skills ) and Usharvi finds his wit charming and both of them tried to learn about Tiger's other magic other than illusions
Here's the info about the fankids, if you want questions, send me in the inbox
Whenever I saw Von's TD hairstyle, for some strange reason it reminded me of Anna Williams from Tekken ( I was obssessed with Tekken at the time )
So Von's genderbend version is based on Nina Williams in contender and Anna Williams in title defense
I made some fankids because I have a punch out brainrot going on---

Viktoriya - daughter of Soda Popinski & Bald Bull
Jermaine - son of Glass Joe & Von Kaiser
Rosalinda - daughter of Don Flamenco & Aran Ryan
