At the top of the Cartoon Style image, "Happy birthday "

At the bottom of the Cartoon Style image, "Booked, cooked, and pika-charged—time to char-ty!"

Illustrate a playful, vibrant cartoon scene in a kitchen-library mashup. Exaggerated proportions, thick black outlines, bright saturated colors, and super energetic, whimsical poses:

- Center: Charizard in a tilted chef hat flambéing a towering birthday cake with its tail flame, frosting dripping and sparkly sprinkles bursting like confetti.

- Left: Pikachu in an oversized apron, lightning bolt-shaped whisk buzzing with tiny zaps while reading an open cookbook, cheeks sparking as batter whooshes into fluff.

- Right: Mudkip wearing big round reading glasses and a tiny chef hat, perched on a stack of colorful cookbooks, carefully following a recipe while stirring a bubbling pot with a wooden spoon.

- Background: Shelves packed with bright cookbooks and utensils; balloons and streamers; motion lines and starbursts for slapstick energy; a few floating crumbs shaped like lightning bolts.

- Keep a clear band at the top and bottom for the text, with bold, bubbly lettering and high-contrast outline so the headline and punch-line pop.

Generated with these themes: Mudkip, Reading, Cooking, Pikachu, Charizard, and .
