After seeing and requesting plenty of great hypno manips from ScornedRemnant, Whitty101919, and Nirvianas, I thought I'd try my hand at making one of my own. So with the help of Paint 3D and Nirvianas (thank you so much, by the way; couldn't have gotten this done without you), I present what I'm pretty sure is the first picture of Teastroyer hypnotized! I've never played Yo-kai Watch 2 myself, but after seeing this guy and how fun his boss fight looked, I definitely wanted this big, goofy tanuki in coils.

Teastroyer and Yo-Kai Watch are owned by Level-5.

I own nothing except the snake.

You never knew what the full moon would bring out, in people or in places; humans could act strange, wolves could howl, and at least one tanuki could dance the night away. Teastroyer took the full moon as a time to party; to go out, be as wild as he wanted, and maybe (hopefully) make some friends along the way. And so the rascally raccoon danced through the woods, without a care in the world. It was strange, though; there were usually at least some Yo-Kai out at this time of night, but tonight, there was not a soul in sight. Not a soul but the snake that startled him as it dropped from the trees. After recovering from the surprise, Teastroyer began an amicable conversation with the snake, who couldn't help but notice the interesting rings around his eyes, and offered to show some rings of his own.

Teastroyer agreed, and soon enough, the most beautiful, vibrant colors he had ever seen flooded his vision and his mind. Not a single thought remained but how good it felt to look deeeeep into the pretty colors, and listen to the snake's soothing voice; how he was a good boy for listening, and good boys got to feel good and see pretty colors all the time. How good boys were cuddly pets, who left their will and thoughts in the loving care of their friend, their master. How good boys were ready to fulfill their master's every need; food, companionship, warmth, anything. Teastroyer could only nod along, helplessly, dopily grinning as his tongue flopped out of his mouth; distantly aware of the thick coils wrapping around him, caressing him, and loving his master all the more for it. A final loop around the neck and a quick tug sealed the deal; Teastroyer gulped, and gave the biggest grin that had ever crossed his face as a PING! rang out in his mind.

The snake snickered to himself as he looked at the big, brainwashed beast, happily panting away, eyes spiralling, tails wagging behind him. Teastroyer had gotten a lot more than he bargained for; he'd gotten love, attention, and someone who'd make far better use of his shapeshifting than he ever could. The snake settled down atop the tanuki's head, and smirked; for tonight, and every night to come after, were about to get a lot more interesting.
