[spare dagger]

Sylveon

[inland geyser]

id call sylveon beige with pink

[spare dagger]

Corsola

[inland geyser]

Wigglytuff is alright

all of gen 1s pink mons are abomination or boring ish

like Mew is cute and pink but kinda plain

[spare dagger]

What about Clefairy

[twin phoenix]

Porygon, Snubbull, Clefairy

[inland geyser]

a bit boring to me

[inland geyser]

snubbull weird as heck but not bad inherently

[twin phoenix]

Corsola, Hoppip, Stufful (I guess)

[zealous lichen]

Golurk body carries that

Stufful and Beware

[inland geyser]

bewear is alright

[knotty summit]

Snubull isn't gen 1

[inland geyser]

hoppip good

[twin phoenix]

I could never get myself to do a Golurk body.

[eager quarry]

I think we're just listing pink pokemon again
Even though porygon is red

[inland geyser]

ye i dont think everyones bringing up pink mons to argue no good gen 1 pink mons,

prob just skipping over arguing about it

[twin phoenix]

I like Clefairy but not for fusions. 😔

[zealous lichen]

I did one and thats it. pretty hard one to use

[inland geyser]

for me its the boring face, it exists in the same game as gengar

and of course clefairy dies and becomes haunter

[knotty summit]

Blissey, Miltank, Tinkaton, Bewear, Slowbro, Hatterene, Milotic (Milotic is considered Pink by the Pokedex)

[inland geyser]

Miltank is not bad as far as pink mons go

[knotty summit]

Oh and Sylveon

[molten loom]

What's been done with it is bad

[inland geyser]

idk i guess i can be happier with lurantis if THATS all the good pink mons we have

[zealous lichen]

fair

[knotty summit]

Alomamola is also considered OU in current competitive

[molten loom]

Example

[knotty summit]

Extremely tame

[inland geyser]

but a crime nonetheless

[inland geyser]

when is someone gonna sprite my "Too Much Goo" Kyurem

[molten loom]

A lot of miltanks feel like they should be removed for rule 2 or something

[zealous lichen]

im trying to come up with a war stick idea for Marowack

[inland geyser]

https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/1279912958704746559

be careful

[knotty summit]

Which is funny because I'm pretty sure the Magnezone one got censored even though the milk came out of bottles

[zealous lichen]

lol

I have been working on this line since the Kommo-o was announced lol

and that is just a spear

[dark prism]

I would appreciate some miltank fusions that aren't extremely cursed lol. maybe some alt sprites

I feel kinda bad for anyone who plays this game that genuinely likes miltank lmao

[zealous lichen]

yeah....

[frozen oyster]

One of my friends is in that boat. Some Alt sprites would definitely be appreciated

[zealous lichen]

Alt sprites are far less likely to be made lol

[dark prism]

damn

yeah you'd probably have to commission some specifically

so many spriters in the server jumped on the bandwagon with that mon as it happens sometimes

then a lot of the fusions end up becoming sorta samey in concept or design

just extra unfortunate with miltank's particular spriter bandwagon lol

[inland geyser]

could request it

[dark prism]

I don't know if I feel strongly enough about it personally to do requests but maybe here and there

[fossil gull]

Nobody has done a torchick, milktank cow and chicken ref

Miltank Pallosand makes ranch

[median iris]

https://tenor.com/view/incredibles-mr-incredible-not-strong-enough-gif-25547952

[high dust]

Does anyone know if they will ever add zeraora?

[hexed agate]

maybe eventually

[high dust]

It would look so cool with other pokemon and it is just a cool pokemon to being with

[ember bear]

oh hey funny fake mantis won

oh there is slowmode, i wonder what happened for such thing to be enabled

[zealous lichen]

lol

the outrage was real earlier

[exotic solstice]

I was looking forward to archeops without defeatist. I am so sad

[fossil gull]

Yeah, there was this one guy who was hardcore simping for tserenne, trash talking to the point I wasn’t sure If it was a bit or not

[zealous lichen]

he was annoying

there were a couple of people acting like that

[warm moth]

Everyone will be happy when tropius is in

https://tenor.com/view/tropius-banana-dinossauro-pokemon-tropius-meu-amado-gif-15339407920333905876

[fossil gull]

If slurpuff gets in, then Yippie. I personally hope ribombee gets in

[snow scroll]

dino banan

[warm moth]

Fusion potential is highest with slurp and trop

[hushed mantle]

Well now we have contrary without needing to use shuckle

[marble meadow]

for me there are 3 I would like to get in

[fossil gull]

If ribombee doesn’t then Im still happy for the mon that get in

[snow scroll]

banana split lizard omg

[zealous lichen]

I am happy with the two so far will enjoy what ever gets added

[fossil gull]

Although I still wish pumpkaboo was voted but hey, such is life

[warm moth]

Mienshao is a good in too

[marble meadow]

Tropius slurpuff and crawdaunt

[warm moth]

Tropius miltank plz

[fossil gull]

Banana milkshake

[marble meadow]

i love dem crabs

[fossil gull]

I still want the elemental monkeys to come in so that we can have a triple fusion of them

Cause mmmmm monkee

[warm moth]

I do love monke, but those monkeys are cursed

[fossil gull]

What if it’s two charlizards

[inland geyser]

gib big mouth bird 😮

[marble meadow]

The do like slurpuff though I’m fine if it wins more food fusions

[inland geyser]

gen 3 🙏

[fossil gull]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-fairy-type-animations-animated-cartoon-gif-10592379

I will post this though now that the salts died down

[lofty spindle]

Ngl, I honestly don't trust these vote results.

Like I am 70% sure Frog is trolling.

[inland geyser]

at least if Tropius gets in, hero will be happy

no one tell hero i want him to be happy

[ember bear]

surely a 11 people vote wasn't really rigged

[deft obsidian]

Grass mantis got in

[lofty spindle]

Lutantis winning a popularity vote, yet alone being remembered...

[deft obsidian]

😔

[molten loom]

https://tenor.com/view/lurantis-gif-25238734

[ember bear]

it was between 11 people, it's not that off

[inland geyser]

at least lurantis is better than carbink

[zealous lichen]

its got such a good pallete for spriting

[ember bear]

the winners of the contest just happened to be people that liked lurantis, what can i say

[wide ridge]

i def know lurantis has a soft spot in artist communities, thanks to its floral bug theme and colors

[fossil gull]

What if the secret Pokémon is duraledon

[deft obsidian]

I prefer kommo o.

[zealous lichen]

I am doing a full line evolution for the first time with Hommo-o!

[inland geyser]

the mods just wanted more girl representation to bring hornees to PIF /j

[hushed mantle]

Nah, it's 100% galarian darmanitan

[molten latch]

You mispelled his name, or is it intended.

[deft obsidian]

Hommo o 🤣

[zealous lichen]

no that was a mistake I started with the middle evolution name and swapped mid word

[molten loom]

Now you go to do the line with Ho-oh

[inland geyser]

LURE rantis

[fossil gull]

Be like bill
Bill is happy when a Pokémon gets added
Bill doesn’t feel attacked when a Pokémon he likes doesn’t get added in
Be like bill

[inland geyser]

[zealous lichen]

I think I saw someone already do the final stage with it

[wide ridge]

my literal only complaint about Kommo-o is that i can literally never remember the names of its pre-evos even if i was put at gun point 😔

[deft obsidian]

But lurnantis dosen't even look like human.

[wide ridge]

cmon, that hasnt stopped people -.-:

[molten latch]

Its a flower that takes the shape of a bug

[inland geyser]

im realizing the first parts of their name are the part you have to remember

[ember bear]

that argument could be used for literally any pokemon ever

[molten loom]

I forget the whole lines names

[fossil gull]

Ditto? Oh yeah the movie

[inland geyser]

Jangmo Hakam and Kommo add da Oh

[deft obsidian]

Ain't no way

[zealous lichen]

I wish I could have seen the stat spreads for the fusions quicker but not surprised it is going to take time before that happens

[deft obsidian]

Hakamo*

[inland geyser]

thats too hard to remember tbh tbh tbf tbf

[deft obsidian]

Slow mode is back

[inland geyser]

they saw me coming back to yap

[zealous lichen]

it is the earliest evolving pseudo line

[deft obsidian]

Lvl 45, right?

[zealous lichen]

yep

but its stat spread is not optimal, on the other hand its abilities are pretty solid

[high haven]

Yo I just got the news! Lurantis is in!!!

[dim sparrow]

Oh nice i like lurantis

[zealous lichen]

hey its the next shift of people!!!

[dim sparrow]

I clicked on the announcement channel and it was just above the announcement so I could create some suspense still :>

[zealous lichen]

lol

[fossil gull]

It got nasty ealier so you came at a good time!

[dim sparrow]

But I like these picks anyhow, they have peak color schemes

Love me some pink and green

[zealous lichen]

agreed! and Kommo-o has one of the base bodies for spriting I think

[scenic ferry]

Doesn’t metagross also evolve at level 45? Or is that just in infinite fusion?

[zealous lichen]

I actually have no idea lol

[stuck bane]

So I just wanna check, we DID get lurantis and I’m NOT dreaming?

[zealous lichen]

you are correct

[dim sparrow]

I might have to make a custom palette though, I know gen 7 sprites don't have the best palettes

[wide ridge]

Im glad infinite fusion thanks to lurantis can fully utilize the power of

THE PINK

[zealous lichen]

yes!

[fossil gull]

Then the news came out slurpuff has a 4/13 chance to get in through the raffle and I gotta say, it got brutal

[dim sparrow]

But that is alright

This means usable contrary mon on showdown too :0

[cursive wren]

ngl, as one of the big lurantis fans that did have voting power, people not liking it made me sad. But I gotta remember there are always going to be upset people regardless 😔

[dim sparrow]

I hope it's it or ribombee (though i also fear ribombee in competitive but i love its design)

[molten loom]

Sorry you're dreaming, we actually got the monkeys

[stuck bane]

Awesome, that was like, the best option on the list unova bias aside

[dim sparrow]

I'm happy with lurantis

[zealous lichen]

I wanted it or Shiinotic the most

[fossil gull]

Lurantis is such a lovely grass type

[high haven]

Ngl I'm fine with that one.

[cursive wren]

yeaahhhh Ive made my own too, not a big fan of the default palette

[dim sparrow]

Ohh now I wanna make a lurantis/sandshrew

[zealous lichen]

go do it!!!

[molten loom]

Also Golispod broke the curse of constant 2nd place it seems

[fossil gull]

Lurantis is
A girlboss
A plant
Not a bug
Based on the orchid mantis
Brutal (in the games and in lore)

[zealous lichen]

by dropping a space

[molten loom]

And got 3rd

[wide ridge]

ya know i wonder how fast people are gonna make a marluxia (kh) reference sprite using Lurantis

[deft obsidian]

There is four slurpuff in raffle
elite artists love slurpuff

[dim sparrow]

My day is only starting

[molten loom]

Yeah

[stuck bane]

Yeah I double checked, and besides unova bias for scrafty and Mienshao so I can stop posting their lists of reasons, lurantis was THE pick I wanted most, I just didn’t think it would win, but I’m so happy it did, I can’t wait for pajama meloetta

[zealous lichen]

my day should be ending but my sleep schedule is fucked

[dim sparrow]

Now will they make a fight with a lurantis that is as hard as its totem battle?

[slow arch]

The day we get the Kalos starters in the game, I become a happy happy man

[fossil gull]

The day pumpkaboo comes in I’ll be so happy for the spooky

[molten loom]

https://tenor.com/view/ppf-lol-omg-gif-21502676

[stuck bane]

So do most other people, it was right behind Noivern in main vote last time at 2nd place

[zealous lichen]

I want to see it as an Erika gym fusion! combine it with Scyther or something

[fossil gull]

Espically considering the diffrent sizes

[dim sparrow]

I just realized why "" looked familiar to me
It's because of ""

[molten loom]

I had brionne for that fight and it was a pain

[dim sparrow]

Oh it does fit her I get you

[dim sparrow]

I had a Bug Arceus (egglocke) and it was a pain

[molten loom]

I think it would also fit her remix team if fused with a bug

[fossil gull]

Although the biggest surprise would be If a gen 8 or 9 mon got in

[zealous lichen]

I never played Sun and Moon

[deft obsidian]

There is still hope for mienshao.

[cursive wren]

Very glad to hear!!! Also because I'm the one who put in mienshao too hehe

[zealous lichen]

I hope it gets pulled

[molten loom]

I've never played sun and moon, just ultra sun

[dim sparrow]

I should finish my ultra moon egglocke sometime

The eggs were almost exclusively made by a person named ehghes online so maybe I should call it the ehglocke

[deft obsidian]

Same I didn't even whatched anime.

[zealous lichen]

I played Crystal and then the next game I played was Sword and Shield

[stuck bane]

Thank you for giving my unova mons a chance when no one else did, I think the scrafty person was also a Slurpuff supporter hence the flip, I’m glad we both got lurantis

[zealous lichen]

I watched some of it

[dim sparrow]

I played and loved Ultra Moon
But I know SM's story is better, I may play it too in a few years or something

[fossil gull]

Gloscipod is amazing in there

Guzma Vs Lana

[dim sparrow]

I watched parts of the anime but not the part with the screaming guzzlord or kartana

i know the screaming is the japanese dub

[fossil gull]

There’s this one vid that covers the fight, it’s brutal

[cursive wren]

yeah man, mienshao is one of my top favorite pokemon so I had to give it a shot <3 Speaking of unova pokemon I almost choose liligant too

[fossil gull]

Plant besties….

[dim sparrow]

Lilligant/Mienshao fusion

https://tenor.com/view/gogogolisopod-golisopod-goatedgolisopod-gif-25159759

[molten loom]

This is one of the scenes I know

[dim sparrow]

Trolled by emergency exit

[fossil gull]

I love the mimikyu in the anime

[stuck bane]

I understand, you were in a vote and you had to try and appeal to the most people, a raffle chance for Lilligant would’ve been nice but you couldn’t have seen it coming (edit: Lilligant is my #1 because of the celadon petilil)

[dim sparrow]

Poor scizor, golisopod is neutral to fire but still flees to get scizor whos 4x weak to it to instafaint

[fossil gull]

Mimikyu in game: love me
Mimikyu in anime: pikachu, you are going to die, I have placed you in the book of eternal grudges

[zealous lichen]

Jesse and Mimikyu were the cutest

[fossil gull]

Man I gotta say though, I didn’t expect just necrozma and ultra necrozma to get in though

[cursive wren]

Ah don't worry, the reason I went with mienshao in the end was because I figured we already have a fair bit of floral/feminine dress wearing pokemon. Figured mienshao would add more for fusion designs

[zealous lichen]

Kung fu mons!!!

[stuck bane]

Fair enough, mienshao does give a lot of that

Mienshao: adds more fighting types, great attack, and good special attack and speed, and the only fighting type with access to regenerator, also can bring shaolin martial arts references to differentiate from Sawk and Throh, and is the only pure fighting type to learn aura sphere (it lends itself to being a good special attacker too), and also the only pure fighting type to learn bounce naturally, and the only pure fighting type to learn calm mind, and the only pure fighting type with access to double slap, and the only non-legendary fighting type with access to drain punch naturally

Let’s hope this is the last day I ever have to post this 🙏

[cursive wren]

I will say if mienshao does win raffle, I'll feel a lil bad for the slurpuff people since they've been gunning so hard for awhile now, and I already got a win in lurantis. That said...

[zealous lichen]

I would love to see any of the Raffle mons win

[stuck bane]

Hey, meloetta was a 1/12 shot, there’s always a chance, even if it is 1/13

[dim sparrow]

Regenerator on an offensive Pokémon is interesting

[stuck bane]

The only option on that list I’m meh with is Crawdaunt but honestly lurantis is good enough for me and comp players need a win this time around

[stuck bane]

Indeed

[zealous lichen]

are you more on the showdown sides?

[cursive wren]

Oh really? I joined in like march so I wasn't around for when the previous batch of pokemon were added. Cool to know

[stuck bane]

Not really, nuzlocker, hence I care about moves and abilities Mons can get naturally

[dim sparrow]

I'm cool with anything in the raffle except the water types lol

[zealous lichen]

ahh same here but I also do Sprite work

[dim sparrow]

Crawdaunt has adapt tho and we don't have physical adaptability users
But i care more about the designs than the gameplay

[stuck bane]

Yes it was a similar situation, archeops doubled up slots on the raffle and everyone thought it was gonna win:

[zealous lichen]

I have been working on this line

[dim sparrow]

Man
Imagine if slurpuff just won the raffle last year

[stuck bane]

They have wanted it for a long time that’s for sure

[cursive wren]

Ooo ty for posting, cool to see

[dim sparrow]

So many cool Pokémon here... Still salty about melo winning :/

[zealous lichen]

I still want Solrock and Lunatone

[dim sparrow]

whatever at least it didn't end up being the last addition
I was mainly salty because it was like "the last Pokémon we are adding" kinda deal originally
Minus bruxish but that was a surprise anyways

[zealous lichen]

what that actually a possibility?

[ember bear]

meh

[dim sparrow]

And cresselia, not sure when that got announced but iirc it wasnt a vote anyways

[stuck bane]

Cress was a staff pick iirc

[ember bear]

honestly looking back im only upset about the regis

[zealous lichen]

why?

[ember bear]

like everyone was just "ohhh memes ohhh gigas needs his babies"

[dim sparrow]

I just feel like meloetta robbed us of so many cool Pokémon options and that alot of people who wanted it only wanted it to have more anime girl references or something

[sullen elbow]

Im at least glad shaymin didnt win

[zealous lichen]

yeah but a lot of freaking amazing fusions have come from those 3

[dim sparrow]

Like
Meloetta (mainly aria) has one theme that I do like in music
But I think still, kricketune did that better (even if the mon itself is super weak)

[inland geyser]

No one better even try this fusion

[zealous lichen]

are you claiming it?

[inland geyser]

no such thing jkjk

[stuck bane]

To be fair, meloetta was like the top pick, it’s still dominating most contests afaik, it definitely is a quality over quantity Mon

[zealous lichen]

look forward to seeing it

[tender plank]

just read the announcement, congrats lurantis!!! well deserved tbh

[dim sparrow]

I just feel like it is too similar to kirlia and gardevoir (meloetta not lurantis )

[molten latch]

[fossil gull]

Technically any female presenting mon could be similiar to gardivour

[molten latch]

Maybe turn Lurantis' back ribbon into Arceus' back crest?

[fossil gull]

Melo is neat

[dusty arrow]

hello chat

[grave jolt]

Turn the golden ring into a tutu

[dim sparrow]

But whatever I can't be salty about that thing forever
We have new Pokémon to be salty about to talk about! (I do like Lurantis btw I'm not salty about it at all lol)

[cobalt river]

meloetta is sad because body wise its just kirlia with longer hair and head wise its the gard line with an extra black color. the music and hair are the only two original things it has goign for it,.... and primarina also does them both while being more unique in both palette and body shape imu primarina. come home

[dim sparrow]

Yooo

[outer matrix]

I wonder who else contributed with melo fusions for the past few contests

[fossil gull]

That’s the spirit!

[grave jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/goomy-goop-realm-pokemon-goodra-lemon-demon-gif-27013083

[zealous lichen]

I am curious how soon the Teams will be formed for the new ones

[grave jolt]

wrong gif

[tender plank]

also i'm glad ONE person let the craw have another chance of winning, wishing on them (even though it's more likely a fairy type's being added, which is fair i'll admit)

[inland geyser]

Ive got ideas already

[dusty arrow]

the raffle is kind of
very lopsided tbf

im just hoping its crawdaunt man

[tender plank]

the people yearn for fairies, what can i say

[dim sparrow]

Honestly i wish food and music themed Pokémon were in from before the new mons were even added lol

[zealous lichen]

well the winners just threw in what they wanted

[inland geyser]

i have a tiny bit of experience with arceus scythe concepts

[grave jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/arceus-aruseusu-pokemon-arceus-and-the-jewel-of-life-pokemon-movie-legendary-pokemon-gif-27629241

[dim sparrow]

Like they are cool themes

[fossil gull]

You can’t influence the choices of others

[dusty arrow]

ok-?

[dim sparrow]

Ice type magikarp

[fossil gull]

I mean the ones who voted

[inland geyser]

Vote Cryogonal or ur a purple asparagus

[fossil gull]

Although I will vote for ice type magikarp

[zealous lichen]

slurpuff does seem a bit underwhelming for competative

[rain locust]

slurpuff would be extremely bad in comp

[fossil gull]

It’s Fairy type

[molten latch]

https://tenor.com/view/no-bugs-bunny-nope-gif-4095597578532971838

Seriously

Whats the point of splashing

[stuck bane]

Actually damn 8/13 chance for a fairy, I was like no way there’s only 5 slots of other choices but yeah Pelipper, craw, goliso, tropius, Mienshao

[molten latch]

Especially Ice Type Magikarp?

[fossil gull]

Hidden ability unburden

[dusty arrow]

huh

[molten latch]

Why does it exist

[ember bear]

shrug

[dusty arrow]

idk ask gamefreak

[zealous lichen]

am I dumb I think there is 7 fairy types

[sullen elbow]

My silly mushrooms are dead

[dim sparrow]

It can't bdrum unburden

[stuck bane]

Unburden doesn’t offer much to comp, slurpuff’s main comp gimmick would’ve been belly drum but that’s been banned, making unburden far less good

[dim sparrow]

Fairy or water

Does slurpuff have sticky web in gen 7?

[grave jolt]

prob missed a carbinc

[molten latch]

So sad that Ribombee taken Carbink's 2 spots

[stuck bane]

Water is only 3/13 chance no where near as bad

[zealous lichen]

I forgot Carbink was fairy lol

[ember bear]

watch it as we get grass flying instead 🔥

[molten latch]

Oof

Unless the Golisweep

[dim sparrow]

tropius is cool as a head, but bodies are just meganium with wings

[zealous lichen]

so do any of the most likely mons have any use in competative/nuzlockes?

[dim sparrow]

Anyways I gtg bhe chat

[stuck bane]

Why would you light him on fire you know his wings are fragile!!

[grave jolt]

so sad Slurpuff didn't take the slots of Mienshao, Pelipper, Crawdaunt, Golisopod, and Tropius

[stuck bane]

Oops all fairies

[grave jolt]

Quick, someone make an edit for that!

[ember bear]

oh right mienshao doesn't have any type in common with anyone else in the raffle too

[sullen elbow]

Fairy is going to be the new dragon now

[fossil gull]

I saved this killer meme from earlier in the day

[cobalt river]

we havent gotten a single new fairy addition so far how can it be the new dragon
i do hope for a fairy from the raffle, but i would like miemnshao as well

[stuck bane]

I’ve given my arguments on Mienshao, but I’m unova man and can’t really speak to any other mons. I know craw gets adaptability, Golisopod and Carbink crazy defenses, that’s about all I know tbh

[fossil gull]

I don’t really do comp, I’m more focus on causal play throughs

[zealous lichen]

I was mostly thinking the RIombee and Carbink

[zealous lichen]

all good I have gotten to the point of really liking Nuzlockes

[grave jolt]

"I cast Four Fucking Swirlix, and with the mana I recieve for playing pokemon cards I can cast Another Four Swirlix"

[molten latch]

Ribombee is one

[inland geyser]

Gen 3 vs Fairy types

[stuck bane]

Oh, doy, yeah ribombee has comp potential in doubles because of its signature move, forgot that part, also crazy speed

[cobalt river]

yeee id like ribombee

[molten latch]

its just a goober.

[grave jolt]

Which side gets Speed favored? The head, yeah?

[zealous lichen]

the body

[ember bear]

body is hp

[stuck bane]

Ribombee prob would’ve been my next pick behind lurantis, it was one of my auto 3s even before discussions began

[zealous lichen]

head is HP SPA SPD Body is SPD ATK DEF

[stuck bane]

Nah head is hp because blissey

[molten latch]

Small baby versions of fully evolved pokemon

[ember bear]

oh i thought it was the other way around

[molten latch]

Think of it as Tinkaton

[zealous lichen]

im like 80% sure of it

[inland geyser]

guys im dying because

https://tenor.com/view/freeza-third-form-gif-4526215134164201837

I don’t see it tbh, maybe the white spikes at the top of both heads but that’s it

its just reminiscent

#showdown-announcements

[stuck bane]

Go to showdown channels, there’s a play.pokeathalon link, there you can play showdown and test out hypothetical fusions

[zealous lichen]

oh I have never done any of that before

[inland geyser]

the Dragon Disintegrator

[zealous lichen]

I am going to see if the line im working on will be any good lol

[grave jolt]

Decided "I have Draining Kiss anyway" and changed expert belt to Life orb.

There's almost certainly something better though

[dusty arrow]

wait whos the mushroom person

[stuck bane]

The person who picked Shiinotic?

[dusty arrow]

no the person whos been talking about loving shiinotic in this chat

[stuck bane]

…. I haven’t seen anyone like that, I don’t think

[sullen elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/among-us-hop-on-bubungus-bubungus-morellul-gif-22292795

I think they were just another Slurpuff supporter in the end, hence why it’s not in the raffle

[sullen elbow]

I havent talked that much

[dusty arrow]

shiinotic being lower than PLUSLE AND MINUN is a fucking travesty

[inland geyser]

whats life orb do

[stuck bane]

I know the scrafty winner was def Slurpuff tho and only chose scrafty because of vote rules

[sullen elbow]

It was ribbon that chaged it for ribombee I think

[cobalt river]

i do really love shiinotic but my top four picks were slurpuff - ribombee -lurantis - carbink yeah
those were all already in by the time i got there hence shiinotic. sorry mushroom child i abandoned you at the finish

[dusty arrow]

you lose health to boost attacks by 30%

[inland geyser]

ah

[grave jolt]

+30% damage on attacks, -10% HP at the end of turn.

[stuck bane]

Oh yeah that makes sense then

[stuck bane]

So, you got one of your picks, and have a 8/13 chance of another top pick of yours getting in, things are looking up for you!

[inland geyser]

if you set up with focus sash and whatever move raises special attack? is gardy fast enough with ribombee to beat dragons

[grave jolt]

this fusion would be RU allowed, funnily enough

[cobalt river]

yeah im happy! I just pray for a fairy whichever one, ill be happy with (and mienshao would otherwise be very good too)

[zealous lichen]

this is an idea I was messing around with

not sure which ability to run with though

[dusty arrow]

what abilities do you have

[sullen elbow]

Two special moves with a minus special atk nature?

[ember bear]

i just realized that kommo-o would counter boomburst users

(if i remembered right and it has soundproof)

[stuck bane]

Wait since it’s maro body can’t you use thick club?

Idk if thick club is better in this situation but

[dusty arrow]

ancient power isnt really good outside of serene grace

[zealous lichen]

Bulletproof, Soundproof, Rock Head, Lightening rod, Battle Armor and Overcoat

[dusty arrow]

yeah soundproff is probably the best bet

[sullen elbow]

Overcoat does counter spore which is nice

[zealous lichen]

I didnt know if it worked or not

[frank oxide]

please slurpuff

[stuck bane]

I forget the rules of it, but I’m pretty sure bodies only can benefit from Mon unique items, like light ball on Pikachu only works on kyochu over pikagre hence why kyochu is a monster

[dusty arrow]

they fixed that

[stuck bane]

O they did? Nice

[dusty arrow]

it works on head and body now

[zealous lichen]

so it depends if I want tankier or more damage?

[grave jolt]

Behold, my new 5th favorite fusion.

[dusty arrow]

misty terrain??

[zealous lichen]

I did assult vest to help resist SPA but thick club for a lot of damage

[dusty arrow]

instead of misty terrain i would suggest a move that can hit opposing steel types

idk if either of them get earth power of aura sphere or smth like that

[zealous lichen]

I remade mine

[dusty arrow]

btw earthquake is better than bonemerang outside of technician

[sullen elbow]

HP ground take it or leave it

[ember bear]

multihit for sash!

[dusty arrow]

90% accuracy

[zealous lichen]

ok any other advice?

[dusty arrow]

not really, looks good

[zealous lichen]

I wasnt sure if Thick club would be better or Assult vest

[grave jolt]

I didn't know what else to put, can prob be replaced by earthquake or HP but that's the best you'd get.

[dusty arrow]

hp ground would probably be best on account of the quiver dance boosts and overall better special attack

[trail hull]

Lurantis great

Wow bonus raffle

[zealous lichen]

Hey Pokebio! good morning

[trail hull]

Thank you

Is it me or the raffle is biased ?

[rotund summit]

slightly lol

[ember bear]

just a bit

i think they might like fairies a little

[rotund summit]

we already got the main dish so tbh this is just the cherry on top

[stuck bane]

Biased multiple ways, but last raffle was bias towards archeops and it still lost

[ember bear]

nah no cherrim on the raffle

[zealous lichen]

and a mystery add since there is 2 open spots between the Kommo-o and Fromantis

[stuck bane]

8/13 options are fairies

[rotund summit]

oh now that you mention it , if they don't add an evolution then yeah

[zealous lichen]

its the Frog or maybe staff pick

[grave jolt]

It's prob a tossup between HP Ground (decent typing, hits one of its type disadvantages) and Water (hits both types it's weak to)

[stuck bane]

We have received confirmation that the person who picked ribombee could’ve picked a three skitter, meaning 474 and 475 are bonus slots

[dusty arrow]

counter argument:

[trail hull]

It can just be these mon

[zealous lichen]

see my second post

[rotund summit]

nice

[stuck bane]

Yeah just saw right after I sent my b

[rotund summit]

well more mons are always appreciated

[zealous lichen]

no because a single stage might be added instead of a 2 stage

[trail hull]

Oh

[grave jolt]

Magnezone would be good, but drags Ribombee up a tier.

[trail hull]

Wow

[dusty arrow]

(i forgot to put leftovers)

[sullen elbow]

Bruxish 2 and Bruxish 3

[dusty arrow]

nah its ice type magikarp and a solo mon

[sullen elbow]

Nah its minior meteor form and core form

[ember bear]

it's totally diancie trust

[dusty arrow]

true.....

[velvet root]

Goat

[grave jolt]

Diancie Magearna Vespiqueen team

[trail hull]

It might be a legendary

[grave jolt]

DiaGearQueen

[zealous lichen]

thats what I was thinking a set of box legendaries

[grave jolt]

Dian, Gear Queen

[dusty arrow]

what box legends do we not have other than solgaleo and lunala

[zealous lichen]

X and Y

[dusty arrow]

oh yeah true

also i made this

[grave jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-zygarde-pokémon-pokémon-legends-za-kalos-gif-3933420139227404546

[zealous lichen]

how do you feel about this im just messing around with ideas

[dusty arrow]

replace dark pulse with shadow ball since stab

[zealous lichen]

makes sense and does the Toxic orb strat work with pain split?

[dusty arrow]

i would prefer roost over pain split

[zealous lichen]

ok

may I ask why?

[dusty arrow]

more guaranteed hp recovery

poison heal would heal you, and cause pain split to give less hp back iirc

im not exactly sure on how pain split works honestly

[zealous lichen]

I was thinking Poison heal activated after pain split since that is an end of round thing

[dusty arrow]

oh right i forgot about that

[zealous lichen]

I just wanted to make something annoying to deal with

[dusty arrow]

really? no need to make a fusion for that

shell smash contrary shuckle, hold chesto berry, have rest, stick web and stealth rock

also i made this

[zealous lichen]

lol I was doing fusion mons

I need to hop off lol its 213 here

[dusty arrow]

same

[dusty arrow]

[zealous lichen]

That's fun

[dusty arrow]

i also made this

drizzle sets up rain
drizzle changes to mega launcher upon mega
origin pulse gets boosted by mega launcher, rain, and stab
death

[rain locust]

just gets owned by shed

[molten latch]

[rain locust]

out of 480 if ndag games ive only lost 7 so believe me when i say 99% of sets you can come up with are probably invalidated by shed bounce revivecats or imposter

[dusty arrow]

silly

[dusty arrow]

ok but counter point:
im having fun

[molten latch]

Sweet griefs

[molten latch]

Ok the Furret fusion is cute NGL

[hot hamlet]

Yummy

[molten latch]

Maybe I'm convinced

[molten latch]

Because of the Belly Drum meta

[molten latch]

Goober

[waxen marten]

I like this one

[steel meadow]

Slurpuff spam

[hot hamlet]

I've been convinced for a month now. Since people started showing examples like this within a week of the contest!

[humble lance]

slurpuff spam

[hot hamlet]

Spampuff

[molten latch]

Slurpuff Propaganda

[humble lance]

[steel meadow]

My favorite will always be conkeldurr

[molten latch]

Homerun

[steel meadow]

Breloom my goat.

[humble lance]

slurpuff gogoat fusion when

[molten latch]

Now (JK)

[steel meadow]

I dont know. I only sprite peoples concept art nowadays

[mystic crystal]

Honestly slurpuff Conkeldurr is what let me see the potential of conkeldurr, that was a fun sprite

[steel meadow]

We have soo many concept goats in the work that its my mission to sprite them

[mystic crystal]

although I really wish it didn't have such big veins, it does kinda ruin the design for me

[steel meadow]

The veins arent that bad here

[dusty arrow]

oops wrong image

[mystic crystal]

They aren't because I really dislike them 😂 I made sure not to have them be prominent

[dusty arrow]

finally, after all these years, tough claws boosted rock move

[humble lance]

cutiefly would be awesome too

[mystic crystal]

but I still think the design would work better without them at all

[steel meadow]

I think they were too scared that it would just look like a regular dude with a big nose

[steel meadow]

Im always suprised when they get creative with slurpuff body

I thought the body would be useless

[humble lance]

quote.lass does such an awesome job with slurpuff bodies fr

theyre the one that also made the eeveelutions with slurpuff

[steel meadow]

I havent seen them except for the 2 u posted earlier

[molten latch]

I didnt realize that on #announcements its changing.

What!?

[steel meadow]

Im really bad at keeping up with #1050404143807873157 nowadays

[humble lance]

look at themmmmmmmmm

[mystic crystal]

Yeah, quote is honestly so talented at making slurpuff bodies, they're a lot trickier than heads

[humble lance]

fr

[molten latch]

Slurpuff is winning!

[steel meadow]

Aww i like that they have different personalities built in

[mystic crystal]

If I didn't have to work today i'd probably cook up another Slurpuff oh well

[median iris]

https://tenor.com/view/tom-holland-spiderman-spiderman-thanos-snap-swtsoob-gif-22157816

Wellp, off til the next run hahaha

[steel meadow]

Just be like me and cook at work

I might get started with a new goat today

[humble lance]

this one is also amazing
by monoski

[hot hamlet]

Mashed potatoes?

[humble lance]

to me it looks like ice cream on a little cake
like caramel and vanilla ice cream

[steel meadow]

It kinda looks like a little sludge thats eating the cake

[dense perch]

Imo, slurpuff and gogoat should be added by default, they have more sprite than some pokemon in game ATM I swear XD

[humble lance]

and diancie

[steel meadow]

Gogoat/Skiddo has 120

[hot hamlet]

Suppose I can see a fondue pot

[steel meadow]

Diancie is like 150, Slurpuff idk

[humble lance]

torkoal also has a bunch iirc
lemme check

[steel meadow]

Torkoal probably got like a good 40

[humble lance]

nope it was spheal i was thinking of
with 51

[steel meadow]

How are you doing on slurpuffs?

[humble lance]

at least 77 slurpuff fusion sprites

skiddo gogoat at 107 at least

[hazy fable]

77 out of 940

[humble lance]

diancie at 150 at least

[steel meadow]

I should probably add my new goats to the goat sheets, brb

[hazy fable]

oh wait its 980, if slurpuff line included then 988?

[humble lance]

its 477 currently so uhhhhhhhhhhhhh 954?

[trail hull]

made some digletts for fomantis time to do lurantis #1280073095692025928

[molten latch]

Idk but it happens

[steel meadow]

According to our sheets we have 127 goats. How many do you have in your folder?

[steel meadow]

It hasnt changed?

[molten latch]

For me it does

[steel meadow]

What has changed for you?

[molten latch]

Wheres tropius, golisopod and shiinotic

[steel meadow]

I didnt realise scrafty were out

[molten latch]

Yeah

I'm so surprise

[steel meadow]

Tropius and Golisopod is still there

The shiinotic swapped to be another slurpuff

[trail hull]

golisopod gonna miss his 3rd chance of getting in

[molten latch]

Phew

[stuck bane]

Yeah, iirc, datorre got double vote, then another winner would’ve picked slurpuff but had to pick scrafty due to rules, and then ribbon also would’ve picked Slurpuff but also couldn’t due to rules so she picked Shiinotic

So now that doubles are allowed there’s 4 slurpuff’s that’s why

[steel meadow]

These damn slurpuffs man

[molten latch]

Then there will be 4 Ribombee

[steel meadow]

Kinda wish they added like the top 20 from the popular vote aswell to make it more random

[molten latch]

And then a war begins

[trail hull]

guys we should be grateful for mroe more mons gettign added in the game

[stuck bane]

4th: he missed spriter vote by 2nd, then missed main vote by 2nd again, and lost the special vote by third. If he loses this 1/13 shot it will be his 4th loss

Golisopod is deadass ash Ketchum gonna be 7 tournaments before he finally wins

[steel meadow]

Dont get me wrong im grateful for what i get

[stuck bane]

My dream came true with meloetta, I’m never allowed to ask for anything ever again, but lurantis was definitely up there

[trail hull]

lmao I love that metaphor

[molten latch]

Just like we did

[humble lance]

107 but theres some in my main folder that i havent organized yet too

[molten latch]

But still would count on Spheal on next vote.

[stuck bane]

If it got 6th place, frog does like to troll sometimes

[steel meadow]

I see, if youre far away from 127 after i can help you look through the sheets to collect them

[stuck bane]

Don’t worry though Golisopod! there’s no way you’ll lose to the person in third place behind you… like… you did with lurantis… oh

[lone dome]

Oof

[trail hull]

you made a 107 slurpuff what???

[stuck bane]

Slurpuff training arc must’ve been crazy bro

[trail hull]

the ony dessert fusion I made is this one

[humble lance]

no i just collected them

[trail hull]

oh

[stuck bane]

Oh ok that makes more sense, still an impressive number of sprites, comparable to how many diancie ribbon by herself has made

[trail hull]

so gogoat , diancie and slurpuff have aroudn a 100 sprites each wow

[lone dome]

How many has ribbon made? :0

[stuck bane]

Idr exact but it’s def over 100 by now last I checked

And not just that, it’s 100, with her level of quality

[lone dome]

Wow that's a lot! :0

[trail hull]

yeah ribbon is a pro

[vague heath]

YES!!!!!

[stuck bane]

I assume you just got the news?

[trail hull]

for some people it was really late in the night so they discovered it when they wake up, just like me

[ember bear]

same

wonder what the hell did i miss for slowmode to get added

[trail hull]

it was probably a heated reveal

appaently there was a lot of spammings

[steel meadow]

Yeah it was pretty spammy

[feral bear]

Im sorry but the gogoat collection is not touching the diancie or slurpuff collections quality wise, i just had to say that. Its comparing minor league to major league, cute to gorgeous

I get 1 problematic comment a week and that was weighing on my spirit

[trail hull]

tune in next week to see the latest controverse

[agile sun]

wdym

[trail hull]

it was a joke because he as he has one problematic comment a week

[agile sun]

[spiral musk]

it's a new week

so the next controversy is happening soon

[feral bear]

Sometimes i cheat and do more than 1 lol

[agile sun]

i am just happy that we are not having gogoat on IF can u imagine

[ember bear]

what about it

i don't really mind it

[spiral musk]

don't throw oil on the fire datorre 😭

[agile sun]

nah, im gonna throw oil on gogoat then someone else throw the fire

[feral bear]

Its sad because i looove goats but gogoat is god awful to me LOL

[agile sun]

super effective right

[spiral musk]

well IG we didn't have to wait that much for the new controversy

[agile sun]

i kinda like gogoat, i like grass txt (when well made)

and that is the problem...

not seeing that much well made gogoats around

[feral bear]

Its elemental monkeys tier to me tbh 😭

[agile sun]

nah, elemental monkeys body is way better to work

[ember bear]

harsh

[agile sun]

ok, just better* :p

[ember bear]

i don't even like gogoat that much but dang

[agile sun]

i mean goats r cool right

horns

[trail hull]

whoever wins I'll have to make a diglett fusion for it

[steel meadow]

I dont get what the point of putting down other peoples sprites is but I hope that felt good

[worldly sail]

slowmode damn

[feral bear]

Its more of a testament to ribbon and bea's work ethic and skill tbh, in the context that team gogoat is like actively trying to pit themselves against team slurpuff and team diancie for /whatever/ reason

Im just saying that if its like that, then theres no competition sorry :/

[steel meadow]

Yeah but why dont you just say "these guys are fucking awesome" without the "those guys over there kinda sucks"

[feral bear]

I have said that before! again i am speaking about the competitiveness that team gogoat has displayed specifically

[trail hull]

okay I posted the fomantis line fused with diglett so only the lurantis line left and then diglett is up to date

[velvet root]

[steel meadow]

Im not trying to be competetive for the record, im just trying my best to get the mon i want in the game into the game

[agile sun]

https://tenor.com/view/shrug-gif-13020138371073713905

[trail hull]

I'm happy we got around 8 new mons

[feral bear]

Thats fair, also note that i never singled u out specifically so i am sorry if it came across that way!!! Team diancie is literally one person absolutely clearing lol which is what i was trying to bring attention to if anything

[agile sun]

is just a ribbon personal project and ppl r still trying to compete against it for no reason :/

[steel meadow]

Yeah im not taking offense personally. Im proud of the sprites ive made although i cant compete with ribbon

[cobalt river]

I definitely dont wanna put anyone down but I also really dont wanna be in a competition :’) seeing a message about it being ‘one spriter against a group’ was kind of disheartening lmao. i’m not good at competition i prefer being left out

[deft obsidian]

The reason of gogoat team wasn't even because ribbon, mostly, things started by ntm and catnade.

Allow me to explain wall of text

[trail hull]

yay I love wall of text

[main nymph]

People do know friendly competitiveness exists right? You can be competitive without needing to trash talk or bring down someone else

[agile sun]

peace ❤️

[old bluff]

I just found out Lurantis got in

[spiral musk]

woa woa woa somebody happy here?

[main nymph]

Congrats

[molten latch]

Hello a fellow Lurantis fan.

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/real-housewives-chicken-food-yum-yummy-gif-5518406

[main nymph]

I'm happy seeing new pokemon in general, while I do have preferences to which ones make it in sooner, I'm not too picky

[old bluff]

now all we need is Golisopod and we the peakest update in the infinite fusion history

[deft obsidian]

Ntm made chart and started thing named "kirlia collab takeover", in chart ntm collab with other to make kirlia body fusion for every type,(I was ice) and then catnade stole chart and started something similar with shinx, then someone stole chart but this time for none if https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/1211230746484805692
The collab takeover turned into "team" and after torkoal so many none if team started like gogoat miniro and serperior.

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/scrolling-phone-gif-24187861

[agile sun]

waiting for the film adaptation

[main nymph]

I'm curious what some fusions for the salazzle line might look like

[ember bear]

fire

[main nymph]

Knowing the Internet probably some ... Naughty things

[spare dagger]

What’s “The Stage”?

[spiral musk]

it's a vc channel

[spare dagger]

Never heard of it

[spiral musk]

it was used for the movie nights

I think you can't see it rn, but it will be visible for the raffle

[spare dagger]

Oh that one

[agile olive]

I wish torkoal takeover took over more

[spiral musk]

torkover 😔

[feral bear]

https://tenor.com/view/torkoal-fuck-this-shit-im-out-pokemon-anime-gif-27327501

[steel meadow]

That was supposed to be a cant not a can

[unkempt stone]

I'm happy

I was welcoming Lurantis given like, it's a good winner

[dusty arrow]

im fine with lurantis

[trail hull]

Is jujutstu kaisen close to ending?

[dusty arrow]

it can give some nice designs, especially since its kinda like sudowoodo

[dusty arrow]

3 chapters away from the end iirc

[trail hull]

oh ok

[steel meadow]

sudobuugo

[dusty arrow]

gotta love this sukuna pose

[sharp nebula]

event winners are based

[steel meadow]

who do you want most in the raffle?

[dusty arrow]

crawdaunt

[sharp nebula]

either ribombee or slurpuff

[steel meadow]

crawdaunt might be my favorite one for game implications only

[unkempt stone]

Another Crab would be good yea

[unkempt stone]

Although I guess it's more of a Crawdad/ Lobster or whatever it is

[dusty arrow]

crustacean mon :)

[unkempt stone]

Ye

[main nymph]

Since lurantis is making it in, I guess now I gotta think of combos for contrary

[dusty arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/crawdaunt-pokemon-pokemon-crawdaunt-happy-gif-13501026122046409198

[agile olive]

omg the mouth open

[steel meadow]

What are the best moves with contrary?

[unkempt stone]

I dunno like

[steel meadow]

My brain be thinking draco meteor and stuff

[dusty arrow]

superpower, leaf storm, overheat, v-create even though only rayquaza and victini have it

[main nymph]

Close combat super power leaf storm overheat

[unkempt stone]

Draco Meteor and stuff like that

[dusty arrow]

oh yeah and draco meteor

[steel meadow]

Guess thats a wide move pool to cook with for Lurantis

Was afraid it was just going to be dragons and fighting types

[main nymph]

But I also want a good looking sprite too

[dusty arrow]

lurantis is literally a flower

[steel meadow]

Lurantis will definetly get some awesome sprites if they dont already have some

[dusty arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/lurantis-every-second-youre-not-running-im-only-getting-closer-pokemon-go-gif-26530166

[main nymph]

Oh I'm aware, it isn't even a bug but a flower that looks like a bug

[dusty arrow]

immediately found this ho-oh/lurantis

[cobalt river]

lurantis is really nice to have new body component thats very fun to work with

[steel meadow]

And it has overheat

[dusty arrow]

lurantis/reshiram and meloetta/lurantis

[main nymph]

Ooo too bad both ho oh and lurantis are physical so overheat won't be as food

[dusty arrow]

stab overheat too

[dusty arrow]

i mean lurantis still runs leaf storm even as a physical attacker

[steel meadow]

Looking forward to the Lurantis/Diancie

Unless u already made it

[cobalt river]

itll be diancie/lurantis but soon! i have the idea for it

[dusty arrow]

oh my god this meganium/lurantis

[cobalt river]

just finishing up my slurpuff/lurantis first

[steel meadow]

Oh yeah i always swap body and heads when i type fusions

[dusty arrow]

(also the first lurantis sprite)

[spare dagger]

Just realized we have Lurantis-Sudowoodo-Crustle as “Grass that looks like Bug”, “Rock that looks like Grass”, and “Bug that looks like Rock”

[steel meadow]

But crustle still is rock smh

[ember bear]

and rock

[cobalt river]

lords weirdest game of rock paper (grass) scissors (bug)

[main nymph]

Lurantis Nidoqueen/king might work, if I recall both nido monarchs learn superpower

[spare dagger]

Well i couldn’t think of anything else

[dusty arrow]

or we can have mimikyu as ghost that looks like electricity

or this fucker

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokémon-grapploct-massage-masseur-gif-3149657598702007452

[main nymph]

Well we technically don't know what mimikyu even looks like

[dusty arrow]

WHY ARE YOU NOT WATER TYPE

[steel meadow]

why is azurill not water type

[spare dagger]

So many mons that aren’t water type but look like it

[main nymph]

Why is lugia(my favorite) not a water type?

[dusty arrow]

like nidoqueen

[main nymph]

Like, I like psychic as a type but lugia literally lives in the water specifically in the depths

[spare dagger]

Habitat =/= Typing

Unless your onix I guess

[main nymph]

Color=/= type

[spare dagger]

True

[main nymph]

I used to think ralts was grass type

[dusty arrow]

fin wings
based on the plesiosaur
guardian of the seas

[spare dagger]

Psychic and Fighting colors are all over the place tbh

[main nymph]

Fair

[dusty arrow]

psychic and fighting dont really have a definitive color

[spare dagger]

Ain’t no way that’s a plesiosaur

[main nymph]

The type color for those is pink for psychic, and brick for fighting type

According to the ui

[molten latch]

True but isnt fairy type better?

[dusty arrow]

its also possibly based on ryujin, aka a dragon who lived in the ocean and was THE GOD OF THE SEA
AND ITS NAME COULD COME FROM BELUGA
A WHALE

so basically, lugia has no reason to not be water type

[spare dagger]

God of the Sea =/= Made of the Sea

[dusty arrow]

is lapras made of water?

[main nymph]

Come to think of it, we don't have too many water/psychics, why wasnt lugia that typing?

[dusty arrow]

because gamefreak

[spare dagger]

God of the Sea =/= Aquatic

[main nymph]

We have what, starmie, veluza, and bruxish?

[dusty arrow]

thats why i said it
c o u l d
come from beluga
also is lapras a fish?

[molten latch]

But it ain't a water type weirdly

[dusty arrow]

slowbro and slowking as well

[molten latch]

True

[main nymph]

Oh right I forgot them somehow

So only 4 lines of water/psychic

[molten latch]

Because Shellbro turns into typeless after biting slowpoke in the head or tail

[main nymph]

But more than 50 water/ice

[spiral musk]

iirc lugia isn't water type bc they didn't want them to have an advantage over ho-oh

but yk they threw that out of the window next gen so idk if its true

[dusty arrow]

how many normal/flyings do we have

[dusty arrow]

thats what i always thought honestly

[main nymph]

Weirdly we don't have a lot of pure flying mons

[spare dagger]

More than half the flyings prolly

[dusty arrow]

tornadus, rookidee, corvisquire
thats it

[steel meadow]

The psychic type was also like the awesome legendary type back in those days so i think they thought it would be cooler to be psychic

[dusty arrow]

that could also make sense as well

[spiral musk]

according to bulbapedia

[main nymph]

Doesn't help they coded psychic wrong in gen 1

[dusty arrow]

ohhh

[dusty arrow]

SO I WAS RIGHT

[main nymph]

Shout-out to how busted psychic was in gen 1, being immune to ghost due to bad coding, and bug only have 2 dmging moves

[steel meadow]

Werent they like leech life with 15 base power and fury cutter with 20 base power too

[main nymph]

Nope leech life and pin missle

[dusty arrow]

3
the only two good ones were on beedrill
and they also sucked, being pin missile and twineedle

leech life with 20 power, pin missile with 14, and twineedle with 25

[main nymph]

Oh right twineedle

[dusty arrow]

leech life was only learned by parasect, venomoth and golbat
pin missile was only beedrill and jolteon
twineedle was only beedril

[main nymph]

If fury cutter has been a gen 1 move it would've been more balanced due to it ramping up in dmg

[dusty arrow]

fun fact
in gen 1, paras and parasect were the first and only pokemon to ever have three 4x weaknesses

[main nymph]

Also amnesia was a thing to be feared in gen 1 because special was a single stat not 2

[molten latch]

True, but also Parasect is a fungus zombie.

[dusty arrow]

ice was also the only type to ever have only fully evolved pokemon, no pre-evos

[molten latch]

Because the mushrooms have taken over its body.

[dusty arrow]

...
what does this have to do with my type thing

[spare dagger]

Yeah bc bug was weak to poison too

[main nymph]

Gen 1 freeze status was the worst, it would last forever

[molten latch]

Nothing, just a nitpick.

[dusty arrow]

back when tauros was the best ou mon

[molten latch]

Yeah

[main nymph]

I have and always will use pokemon I vibe with

[dusty arrow]

same here

[main nymph]

Even if they are considered low tier, my poor kantonian ninetales

[dusty arrow]

5 out of the 6 of my top 6 favorite pokemon are ru lol

[molten latch]

I've change my name again

[main nymph]

Picky picky

[molten latch]

NGL slurpuff's Belly Drum meta is bonkers

[dusty arrow]

harga

[molten latch]

Combine it with Sitrus Berry, it will sweep.

[main nymph]

Just uh don't use belly drum with contrary

[molten latch]

Yeah

[humble lance]

i am patiently awaiting for the sprite artist to upload this one

[molten latch]

Play Rough or Drain Punch works

[main nymph]

I mean it might work for a confuse the enemy tactic

[dusty arrow]

yeah thats how unburden tends to work
it has to be sitrus berry for unburden to work-

[molten latch]

Again, this fusion reminds me of Cauliflower Cookie from Cookie Run

[main nymph]

Just looks like cauliflower to me

[dusty arrow]

wtf even is cookie run

[main nymph]

Now I'm getting hungry

[molten latch]

100% true

[humble lance]

this is cookie run

[molten latch]

Its a game by Devsister which the cookies run to collect jelly points. It has a gacha system and P2W properties.

[dusty arrow]

oh ok so a game im never playing
ever

[humble lance]

its actually very charitable for a game with microtransactions tbh
you can definitely do everything without having to pay
which i did lol

[main nymph]

Pay 2 win means bad game design

[molten latch]

Devil Cookie, such a silly billy that they're Luke from SF 5/6

[spare dagger]

How pay-to-win?

[molten latch]

Lol, I grind and flex.

[humble lance]

it doesnt feel p2w to me at least

[dusty arrow]

eh, i still dont think i would play it anyway

[humble lance]

fair
i havent played it in a while either tbf

[main nymph]

Then there is me with Warframe, I can't ever escape it

[humble lance]

i just really like devil cookie theyre my favorite : >

[molten latch]

As in totally. But its more of an optional thing for the outfits and custom jellies. Thats the P2W aspect.

Other than that, you can still play it for fun.

[unkempt kernel]

Actually that gave e an idea for a crobat / gogoat as a ref alt

[humble lance]

anyway do u care him

[spare dagger]

So not at all then? I don’t think cosmetics count as gameplay

[molten latch]

Well you can say that.

[dusty arrow]

if i want to play a game involving jelly ill play burrito bison

[main nymph]

I mean gogoat is literally a bike, but a goat

[steel meadow]

bibike

[dusty arrow]

build a nuclear reactor

[molten latch]

Good for you.

[toxic flame]

At least you can eat a Salat while you ride him

[velvet root]

Gogoat is Inspired by Chopper and the bikes I send in are those

[molten latch]

Forbidden Love

[main nymph]

Cursed with knowledge... I am

[toxic flame]

I expected a more cursed fusion considering those two

[humble lance]

let skitty win

[dusty arrow]

the skitty and wailord are kinda common knowledge now

[main nymph]

Doesn't change my point

[dusty arrow]

that doesnt make it cursed

[grave jolt]

The most iconic couple in Pokemon

[humble lance]

also a bug

[grave jolt]

smol

[dusty arrow]

nah
seviper and zangoose
(they can actually breed)

[toxic flame]

I’m more of a wingull or mienfoo type myself

[molten latch]

It reminds me of that one meme template on reddit.

[humble lance]

woag gogoat emoji

[toxic flame]

Nah there is ditto with everyone else

[dusty arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/the-noise-dance-dancing-woag-the-noise-dancing-gif-27141041

[sterile spoke]

I'd actually be pretty happy with pretty much any of the raffle Pokémon. 🙂

[grave jolt]

Nah, prior to the Vaporeon copypasta the "did you know" cursed fact was Skitty and Wailord

[sterile spoke]

I do have a personal preference, however. 😉

[unkempt kernel]

Im gonna be happy with whatever gets in from the raffle, my guess its most likely the slurpuff line (Since it has 4 slots)

[sterile spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/ribombee-pokemon-fairy-cute-gif-22197024

[dusty arrow]

that kinda looks like the battlepass

[humble lance]

i prefer anything besides carbink

let diancie in instead

[ember bear]

real

[steel meadow]

What are people intending do with the bee body?

[toxic flame]

Bee movie

[grave jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/pikachu-skitty-run-pokemon-gif-15574813

[dusty arrow]

im glad plusle and minun arent in the raffle

[spare dagger]

Anything but Tropius for me

[sterile spoke]

You can change the scarf into something else (flames, ice, clouds, sand, etc.) pretty easily. 🙂

[humble lance]

make more smol mons

[steel meadow]

i suppose

[humble lance]

this ones mine v

[steel meadow]

Its just so tiny you dont have alot to work with but i guess thats part of the fun

[humble lance]

i like making smol mons : >

[dusty arrow]

make joltik/cutiefly a single yellow pixel

[sterile spoke]

It's 100% part of the fun. 😄

[velvet root]

[main nymph]

You don't like the brachiosaurus tree with wings?

[sterile spoke]

I love shrinking large Pokémon like Rayquaza into as tiny a space as possible. 😂

[humble lance]

heres more smols ive made

[spare dagger]

It’s a little too plain imo

[steel meadow]

Sounds like a nightmare for a more amature spriter like myself

[toxic flame]

Imagine already creating the sprits and finding out it was all for nothing 💀

[grave jolt]

[main nymph]

Speaking of tiny sprite I no longer have smol boy giratina in my hame

[sterile spoke]

Honestly, it's the best way to learn a lot of techniques. 🙂

[velvet root]

Oh now my Sprites are something you can show off

[sterile spoke]

A lot of new spriters make the mistake of thinking bigger is better, so they end up with overscaled sprites with a lot of plain bits. 😅

[grave jolt]

[humble lance]

i actually did resizing of digimon to pokemon canvas size and its made me really good at resizing sprites

[sterile spoke]

[sterile spoke]

I've done exactly this too, it's a good exercise. 🙂

[grave jolt]

[main nymph]

Latias and latios are the planes, what are you on?

[cobalt river]

spriter smaller is definitely difficult but its satisfying and cute id like to work w ribombee bodies www

[molten latch]

Plus

[velvet root]

Just send that in a few min ago

[grave jolt]

oop

[humble lance]

it really is a great resizing exercise

[molten latch]

Shiny Ribombee looks like my old OC.

[spare dagger]

The weirdest thing is that Tropius can fly as well

[main nymph]

Reminds me of delibird honchkrow

[grave jolt]

a lot of Ribombee sprites are way upscaled

[molten latch]

True

[main nymph]

Skullgreymon and gigaseadramon

[grave jolt]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1257537465653395486/1257537466072567840/melona.png?ex=66d68187&is=66d53007&hm=70a6b6cbae1e469eff0b4f36b14dd11577b3be0232fe0e6f1568e6c88c3e7668&

[sterile spoke]

Digimon style -> Pokémon style is just super fun. 😄

[humble lance]

also this one that i think i lightly resized

[main nymph]

Like the Charizard Lucario omnimom?

[velvet root]

Cute little guys are kinda awesome ngl

[humble lance]

kiwimon best mon

[sterile spoke]

Yes. 😄

[main nymph]

Dorumon for me

And I do mean dorumon, not alphamon or dorugoramon

[cobalt river]

we are all love babie sprites >:3

[molten latch]

Goober

[humble lance]

BABBY

[unkempt kernel]

Eh, shinegreymon

[molten latch]

Cant wait for Diancie/Lurantis or Kommo-O

[main nymph]

Somewhat reminds me of the fortune teller in animal crossing

[grave jolt]

Baby!

[humble lance]

diancie kommo-o probably way after most other mons lol
its design is pretty busy

[main nymph]

It would be a lot to unpack I imagine

[dusty arrow]

guys i got off brand cinnamon toast crunch

[cobalt river]

yeah kommo is being uh. pushed back as far as i can. i really sislike it
lurantis line soon though!

[molten latch]

True

Noice, Please!

[grave jolt]

Need a Triple fusion for each of the two sets of dragons /hj

[humble lance]

someone else made one of diancie lurantis too

[molten latch]

Dragoranimence

[main nymph]

Hmm with lurantis, might be able to make a MegaMan x sprite for the killer mantis bots

[molten latch]

Not bad, but we can make it better.

[ember bear]

well that's a memory i did not want to unlock

[humble lance]

that ones by labrad

[grave jolt]

Gardrag-o

[ember bear]

(if you are talking about the x6 ones ig)

[molten latch]

Hisuian Gootagrocaliburpult

[humble lance]

minior when tho

[dusty arrow]

no salamence

[molten latch]

Now 4 fusions is metal

[main nymph]

I mean technically yes, they are the same but with an updated sprite, I was specifically thinking of the lower res ones

[molten latch]

I already did

[cobalt river]

oh thats lurantis body? i thougjt it was head
ah well it wont be the first double diancie i do haha

[molten latch]

Indeedee

[main nymph]

As much as I love blaze heatnix, his stage is the worst, I call it donut hell

[grave jolt]

Would prob be Generation order
Hisuian Dragcalibur

[molten latch]

Ye true, sorry.

[humble lance]

i want minior so bad

[grave jolt]

And Metagros doesn't get a fusion since it's not a dragon

[molten latch]

So sad they take away from us

[unkempt kernel]

Same but the problem i see with minior is that you'd have to do alts for all the colours

[dusty arrow]

hisuian gargooo-orantagrocalidreimencepulite

[lethal reef]

Minior would be so much fun if it got in!!! Fingers crossed for next year
