Finally done. TO CLARIFY These sketches are of the official starters that my good colleague was able to show me. He works in Europe Nintendo and with the games in field content programming and has worked with Treehouse Nintendo. I did the best I could to remember all the details of the pictures once he showed me (I was not allowed to take a photo). Despite what was leaking around, these are the best I can do in terms of the sketches from memory and I wrote down the colors.
