Growlithe pup

I wanted to try drawing my Black 2- Party but it didn't turn out like I wanted...however I did like the way my Growlithe turned out, so I enlarged it and drew him on his own.

As you might see on the collar his nickname is William? Why? Well... some of my other Pokèmon are randomly nicknamed Patrick, John, Tom, Peter, Colin, Sylvester, Paul, Chris, David and Matt...
There's a connection between them, but you figure it out >:3
