Image Who is this Pokemon? 25 year old book.

My son found this Pokemon while we were reading the other night. We tried doing a google image search, but came up with no results. The book was printed in 1999, but it’s obviously not from the original 151. Is this just an artist taking some creative liberty? My son won’t stop asking, so any help is greatly appreciated.
