event-general

[teal grove]

There’s this one guy making axew fusions for the contest with unsettling amounts of teeth

Im gonna counter this by making a stupidly goofy axew fusion

[oblique sentinel]

Nah effects make it better

[teal grove]

Overruled

[oblique sentinel]

That why people don’t like when others do it in contest because it makes it stand out

[teal grove]

You clearly didnt read what we wrote because none of us said effects are bad

[oblique sentinel]

I only was reading one part

Didn’t say it was bad

I should’ve done the reply thing

Mb

[teal grove]

Dont react to something without having read the full thing, that’s just signing your own death warrant

[thin dove]

debating putting something up to a poll in spritework questions but that clues people in on what i want to do

hmm

[hybrid shell]

mudkips count

[teal grove]

Oh hey craze, havent seen you around in a while

[hybrid shell]

yeah, hey man!

i, might’ve, possibly, definitely maybe left and rejoined yesterday

[teal grove]

[teal grove]

21 sketches done

[deft kite]

i wanna flex this guy rq 🙂

[teal grove]

Do it

[ivory olive]

I wonder what the contest suvmission number is

[teal grove]

We'll probably reach 500 somewhere late tomorrow

[ivory olive]

count

I counted last time, you count this time

[teal grove]

Ill count if kiwi hasnt counted by the time i start counting

[dawn ivy]

(just select all)

[teal grove]

Wow, what an amazing idea, if only the drive wasnt all seperate folders

[dawn ivy]

weird it used to have a way t just show the amount in the whole folder

[supple olive]

I might have counted wrong but I think it's 433 entries so far

So we'll probably hit 500 late today at the least

[bleak crypt]

Do our entries have to go through spritework and into the gallery before we submit them to the google doc or are we supposed to do that after the contest?

[limber venture]

i think you can do either

they just want to make sure theres no contest only sprites this time basically

so just. post to the contest and the gallery, essentially

doesnt matter the order

[bleak crypt]

Ah okay, thanks!

[rose musk]

―All submissions must be posted to the gallery if youre a spriter already, no waiting til the end of the comp and then forgetting. for non-spriters, post em to spritework!
This seems to imply "as you submit them", but it probably doesn't matter as long as you put them in some time before the contest ends.

[plucky arch]

mad dash for 20 entries

[frail vortex]

We're at 437 entries, if you download the competition folder and just check properties it'll tell you have many files are in there

i see ive discovered kiwi's method :p

[tall moss]

i download the thing and search for "png", then copy everything into a folder

[frail vortex]

i just right click > properties, it counts in the subfolders automatically

[edgy turtle]

Can anyone sponsor a contest?

[tall moss]

dows it count the folders as items of you do that?

[tall moss]

yes, just contact the sprite managers with your idea

not sprite, CONTEST

[frail vortex]

I dont think so, it specifies 437 files and 115 folders

[edgy turtle]

Is there a list of contest managers?

[plucky arch]

make that 438

[thick harness]

115 participants? I knew we had a lot of sprites but geez

[edgy turtle]

I have sent a DM to @weary pagoda about it.

[plucky arch]

14 entries, i got 6 more till i have to have 2 polls

[hybrid shell]

I must sprite, I m u s t

[molten crater]

well, the deadline was set to a whole month, might aswell do one entry per day

[hybrid shell]

lmao them fact onix is considered apart of the tinies is funny to me

[supple olive]

Little baby GIANT ROCK SNAKE

[teal grove]

Onix has the same bst as mudbray

[honest tulip]

what's stopping u from 24 entries a day

[molten crater]

I work and am a graduate student... so yeah, I don't really know what's stopping me, maybe I'm just being lazy

[honest tulip]

oof

[tall moss]

new sussy poll

[limber venture]

what does this mean

[honest tulip]

@tall moss u forgot the option for neither

[sterile pasture]

behold
the pokemon that represents my ability as a spriter

[late sequoia]

Very sussy poll.

[balmy ibex]

I am very confused what

@tall moss is this a test for the next contest?

[timid shore]

check #special-contest

[balmy ibex]

yea ik, that's exactly why I'm confused

[timid shore]

oh wait nvm. i misunderstood

[lethal rivet]

Like “I would be comfortable fusing this” or like “my sprites are similar in technique to this”

[balmy ibex]

I picked my choice in terms of "this is the fusion I can have the most fun with"

[limber venture]

i have a feeling you're meant to interpret it however you want to

[timid shore]

i think im pretty mega mewtwo x, aside from the facing right thing

[lethal rivet]

The weird rim lighting on the lucario really bugs me

[sterile pasture]

I made my choice entirely on vibes

[tall moss]

i love seeing your theories

[thick jolt]

i went with which gives you more like chance to prove your worth as a spriter

[timid shore]

wait is mewtwo x a spec atk or physical atker?

[late sequoia]

Physical

[limber venture]

phys

[thick jolt]

so i went mega mewtwo because its plainer while still having like design elements to use

[timid shore]

okay that theory is out then

[balmy ibex]

wait

[limber venture]

you guys are making all these theories meanwhile i dont even remember what i voted for

[timid shore]

i dont think mega lucario's a spec attaker lol

[late sequoia]

I figured it was a choice between legendaries or nonlegendaries

[timid shore]

but they are both megas

colours??

[balmy ibex]

did I fucking guess it

[torn dawn]

Only those who voted for the correct answer get access to the next choice award thing

[timid shore]

[late sequoia]

Kiwi's having fun with making us guess

[balmy ibex]

rule 7

I think

[timid shore]

we arent even at 500 entries yet right??

[plucky arch]

ah right

ill delete just in case

[tall moss]

and here i thought i gave yall obvious clues smh

[balmy ibex]

kiwi please tell me I didn't get it right

[thick jolt]

do the pokemon have hidden abilities or something?

[teal grove]

My guess is people will be divided in a TEAM contest between two teams, and one team has to win against the other

[thick jolt]

oo

[teal grove]

Though two mewtwos wouldve made more sense for that

And the poll wouldnt be anonymous

[limber venture]

well the poll isnt anon for mods

pretty certain they can see the votes

[balmy ibex]

spriting splatfests confirmed

spritefests

[tall moss]

you didnt

[balmy ibex]

[teal grove]

Kiwi did i get it right

[tall moss]

no one got it right so far

[limber venture]

ok guys so are you adaptable or steadfast

[teal grove]

Im straight

[dusk schooner]

Nope, not us

[timid shore]

oh those are the abilities?

[tall moss]

i can see the results, no one else

[limber venture]

close enough

i just meant husks idea could happen

[teal grove]

Anthro contest

For the furries

[balmy ibex]

goddamn it

[supple olive]

Bruh

[teal grove]

Kiwi i have another question

Do the results matter

[balmy ibex]

I can change that

[limber venture]

yes

[supple olive]

I just voted kiwi you must have been READY to take the equal split screen shot

[limber venture]

those abilities do sound pretty close to "types" of spriting i feel like you could apply thjose maybe

[edgy turtle]

@tall moss I have talked with Skel'n about sponsoring a contest, just need to wait for the current one to finish.

[sterile pasture]

kiwi whisper the answer in my ear please

[timid shore]

so like, are you adaptable to change plans if it doesnt work or are you the type to be bruteforce it through

[supple olive]

Steadfast

[tall moss]

👂 👄 the answer

[teal grove]

Hey litlle baby let me whisper in yo ear

[supple olive]

I got one less problem without cha

[plucky arch]

awful

[late sequoia]

The only other thing I can think of is something like Goku vs Frieza so good vs evil or something along those lines

[plucky arch]

hmm theres gotta be deeper message here

spikey or bulbous

[timid shore]

bobo or kiki

[late sequoia]

New sussy poll.... which represents your skill as a spriter...

[timid shore]

oh wait it's called bouba/kiki effect

[edgy turtle]

Honestly I would have voted for Mega Lopunny if it was an option.

[tall moss]

booba

[supple olive]

I'm mega Mewtwo x because I am fighting psychic type

[plucky arch]

booba contest lets go

[supple olive]

Booba contest the only rule is booba

[buoyant bough]

miltank meta

[late sequoia]

Mega or Mega legendary

[misty acorn]

I'm Team I-already-forgot-what-I-voted-for

[limber venture]

Eyy same

[supple olive]

New contest : mega oddish

[late sequoia]

.... goes to check if Oddish/Oddish already has a custom sprite

[supple olive]

Lol

[tall moss]

bruh i stg

[supple olive]

Br uh

[timid shore]

okay, so we arent expecting things to be equal?

[plucky arch]

new challenge:

make them both equal without being able to see

we got this boys

[late sequoia]

We will mess it up if we try to coordinate lol

[supple olive]

Server wide collaboration make this vote to decide something decide absolutely nothing

[slow gyro]

Hi straight, I’m hero

[plucky arch]

you get it

not only shall we drain kiwi's wallet, but we shall ruin her day

[timid shore]

we are the coin kiwi's flipping only to land on no side at all

[supple olive]

It'll land in the middle

[timid shore]

eternally spinning

[supple olive]

It just keeps going up forever

[plucky arch]

if ive learned anything from the internet, its that we can do anything if we put our mind to it

[tall moss]

yall have til we hit 500 entries to vote

[plucky arch]

especially if said thing involves minorly inconveniencing someone

[supple olive]

But that's in like 2 hours or something

[buoyant bough]

so this has something to do with next stretch goal maybe? 🤔

[supple olive]

Oh yeah I forgot about the stretch goals

[buoyant bough]

"There are two more choicen't awards, the nature of which I teased in the poll. I will confirm the next one once we hit 500 entries."

ah, i see

[tall moss]

someone ping me when we get to 500 entries

[supple olive]

Ok

Can I change my folder color

Nevermind I already did it lol

I don't want to count the submissions again it took like 20 minutes last time

[timid shore]

oh so we ARE the coin flip that decides which award gets revealed first?

[buoyant bough]

there's a much easier way than doing it manually c':

we're at 440 rn btw

[sterile pasture]

Here

[buoyant bough]

or i guess 439 since it counts the example one, gotta remember that lol

[supple olive]

So we need to make 40 more for the next choicen't

[buoyant bough]

61

[supple olive]

Oh yeah whoops

[plucky arch]

alright boys lets get spriting

[timid shore]

but it's midnight here

[supple olive]

I am about to make something hilarious

[limber venture]

wtf

how

[livid stratus]

you guys reckon we are at 400 entries yet?

[buoyant bough]

over, ~440

[plucky arch]

yeah were like 450 or smth i think

[slow gyro]

I haven’t had time to sprite
If I had being spriting, we’d already be over 500

[molten crater]

just wait for an odd amount of voters smh

[ivory olive]

what's the poll for, I am confuzzle

[slow gyro]

Just realice that both Pokémon are fighting type, would that have importance of why those two?

[slow gyro]

That’s the best part, we don’t know

Only Kiwi knows

[ivory olive]

I just voted for the good one

the one with an O in the name

wait I just realized they both have O's I'm fucking dumb

[silver solar]

I dont think either represents my ability as a spriter

[tall moss]

i voted for the one thats a mega

[ivory olive]

dude same!

[teal grove]

Ive found the theoretical limit to the self-elimination system kiwi is using for LC3

To break it, if my knowledge on tenedranox' brackets maker is correct, all you need is over 50 sprites made by one person

[plucky arch]

Bet

[teal grove]

That is if kiwi isn’t willing to create 6-row bravkets

Otherwise the plan is in shambles

Im writing it out since i just reached 24 sketches + 2 sprites for this contest

[honest tulip]

someone gotta try it

50 entries

[teal grove]

Im about halfway there, just gotta actually sprite all these sketched lads

[plucky arch]

im at 14

fuck you

[tall moss]

polls can only have 20 entries each, if people make more theyll just get multiple polls

[teal grove]

In that case, we can break the system with at least 41 sprites

[plucky arch]

do 21 sprites, cant have a poll with just 1 sprite

[teal grove]

Since if we get two of 20, you'll just pick the winners of those two for the winners bracket and losers bracket instead of from the same poll

So 41 would warrant an additional round afterwards to decide

[tall moss]

right i forgot we cant do 10 sprites in one poll and 11 in the other

[plucky arch]

dangit

41

[tall moss]

13-14 sprites per poll

[teal grove]

Even then it wouldnt work

The system breaks as soon as you need more than two polls

[tall moss]

no it doesnt, well jut pick whichever sprite has the most votes overall across all the persons polls

[plucky arch]

kiwi is so mean smhsmh

[teal grove]

That also counts as breaking the system in my book because that's not a good way to conclude a vote

[tall moss]

tough

[teal grove]

Anyway i still need to create a couple fusions

[slow gyro]

So, if I try hard enough, I could have three pols? Or four? Or ten?

[teal grove]

Yes

[odd garnet]

So if you make to much sprites for one poll
Then there will be another poll
And the sprite with the most votes from both polls combined moves on?

What if the other poll only has 2 sprites and they're objectively the worst ones you submitted, but they get the most votes because people only have 2 to choose other than the plenty of good ones in the first poll, making it so that if the same number of people voted for both pools, the 2nd poll would have one sprite that had more than half the votes?

[teal grove]

Btw, ive only managed to sketch one concept in this entire half hour because half me class suddenly started messaging me about how to put their website project online because everyone's having technical difficulties

It is 11 minutes before the fucking deadline

[teal grove]

That you need to ask kiwi, she's the one who has to patch up the broken system she created

[sterile pasture]

Kiwi kinda implied here that polls of awkward numbers would be split evenly. So I don't think you'd have a poll with 20 and a poll with 2

[gray igloo]

Huh? Mega?

[sterile pasture]

Gosh imagine making more than 20 couldn't be me

[plucky arch]

i just finished 2 more (well put them in sprite work but whatever)

[supple olive]

Imagine being good at making high quality sprites couldn't.... Couldn't be me😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 /hj

[plucky arch]

hey man i never said they were good, just that they were posted

[thick harness]

Quantity over quality; if you make enough sprites at least one will get through to the winners bracket

[dawn prairie]

if you post 1 sprite it will be in the winners bracket

the ultimate quantity

[supple olive]

🕳️

If you post 10 quadrillion sprites the mods will kill you

[plucky arch]

one of them is pretty ok the other is, yeah idk what more to do with it ngl

this next one tho is gonna take a while so yippee

[near horizon]

Does adding special effect (sand, buuble, etc ...) count in the kaiju size ?

[sterile pasture]

No it doesnt

You're just comparing the body's size to that of the official sprite basically

[near horizon]

okay, nice

[tall moss]

the theoretical max is like 15k

[supple olive]

If you post 15k sprites the mods will kill you

[cerulean ice]

If you make 15k sprites for the game, do you get a special role? //brick'd

[supple olive]

New role: good job you just did half of the game idiot

[cerulean ice]

More like 6%, but the sentiment is the same. XD

[supple olive]

Lol

[teal grove]

27 sketches

+2 sprited

Ive already guaranteed myself a double poll

[supple olive]

Wow

👏👏👏🙂

[teal grove]

Quick, give me two other mons to make fusions with, i want some randomness

[slow gyro]

I’m going for one too, but I still need to make some

[slow gyro]

Totodile

[teal grove]

And not to fuse together, just for two seperate fusions

[teal grove]

That i can do

[slow gyro]

I want to do totodile too but idk with which

[buoyant bough]

ferroseed

[teal grove]

Already did a ferroseed for this contest

[slow gyro]

Then I’m taking it

[teal grove]

Also just got an idea for what to fuse totodile with

[buoyant bough]

growlithe?

[teal grove]

Havent done one with growlithe either

[supple olive]

Has anyone used hoothoot for this contest

[sterile pasture]

I think everything's been used at least once

[supple olive]

I know that* I *used hoothoot

I was just asking if anyone else has

[molten crater]

So... what happens if we hit the google drive limit for submissions?

[supple olive]

Wait there's a limit?

[molten crater]

15 Gigabytes yeah...

[supple olive]

They're 288x288 Pokemon sprites we probably won't get to 15 gigabytes anytime soon

[pastel hollow]

Yeah the size is extremely small

[molten crater]

I know, I know... but it would be an interesting scenario

[teal grove]

We get a second drive

[supple olive]

Yeah you're right.... What would happen?

[teal grove]

But hey, let's see if wd can hit that 15 gb

At the rate we're going we'll probably have over 2000 entries

[supple olive]

Everyone has to make 70 quintillion sprites daily to hit this goal

[teal grove]

Oh god wait

Once the selfelims are over

Thatll be a lot of fucking polls for the first round anyway because there’s like 100 people participating

[supple olive]

And I saw someone with like 20 sprites already too

I like how peaceful it is despite the fact that we are all competing against each other for real money

[tawdry oak]

Not about the money is it

No the money is what makes people enter

[molten crater]

The money is just there, people would be doing them sprites regardless

[livid stratus]

im not gonna win any money, the competition is too skilled

[molten crater]

but for me, living in bruhzil, those 50 bucks are 250 bucks in my local currency, which would be really nice to have

[livid stratus]

but I will likely have 15+ sprites made because it is fun

[buoyant bough]

i'm just enjoying making lil guys

[livid stratus]

me when kiwi announces a little guy contest

ONIX GO BRRRRRRRRR

[pastel hollow]

thissss its a good change of pace for me lol

[pastel hollow]

but also this lmao

[livid stratus]

hehe

only took 5 hours on the week that I have 4 exams and 1 essay, yes it was worth it

[ivory olive]

Wailmer

[pastel hollow]

onix is like any other first stage pokemon except bigger and with worse stats

[livid stratus]

I had fun making it tho, ill probably make one other onix for the comp

theres a lot of things you can do with him because of his size

[pastel hollow]

im pretty sure since spriters are the ones voting all the onixes will get elim'd by the semifinals lol

[livid stratus]

im not trying to win, I just like working with onix

hes simplistic

[pastel hollow]

o no same

[livid stratus]

with lots of surface area

[tall moss]

so youre saying i dont have to break the bank after all? ok 0$ prizes now

[ivory olive]

wild Kiwi :o

[livid stratus]

hi kiwi

[tall moss]

hello joe

[ivory olive]

Kiwi

[livid stratus]

😱

😂

[tawdry oak]

maybe

[tall moss]

WHY YOU SCREAMIN

[ivory olive]

Joe, for punishment of scream loud you must count the current amount of contest submissions

[livid stratus]

Id sponsor a contest to finish all noctowl bodies, but im not sure people would do it if the prize pool is only like $30

[ivory olive]

how many bodies are left

[honest tulip]

back in the days... cough cough... we werent allowed to post entries in contest-general due to 7️⃣

[teal grove]

Already did one and it’s hilarious, ill dm you

[ivory olive]

oki

[livid stratus]

lol im in class and have an exam in 15 min I cant count them right now

[ivory olive]

:(

do it when you can

[livid stratus]

no amount of clout chasing is gonna make my sprites any better than just decent, so who cares lol

[livid stratus]

probably like 80% of them, not that many have been done

[honest tulip]

blaq might care

[livid stratus]

well how ab this

[buoyant bough]

450 submissions currently

[livid stratus]

make the onix the least voted of all my submissions

[teal grove]

Hooo boy

[livid stratus]

reverse clout chasing, i want it to do poorly

😂

[buoyant bough]

50 more till the next goal gogogo

[livid stratus]

yoooooo

[teal grove]

Sometime tomorrow

[honest tulip]

||the pity vote strat ||

[teal grove]

Reverse clout chasing, instead of winning money by people voting on you, you pay people not to vote on you

[livid stratus]

🙄

[buoyant bough]

half the participants have to submit one sprite and we'll be there

[livid stratus]

LOL

[livid stratus]

No, it's only mid afternoon, I'm sure by midnight it will be reached

[teal grove]

It's almost 10 pm for me

[buoyant bough]

its night here but yeah i guess murica is still in the daytime

[livid stratus]

Ah, nvm then lol

[ivory olive]

Husk has an ass timezone

[livid stratus]

It will be tomorrow for you

[teal grove]

Who's talkin

[ivory olive]

EST

the best timezone :)

[livid stratus]

CST

[buoyant bough]

BST

(only half the year)

[ivory olive]

ew, you share a timezone with Texas

[livid stratus]

I live in Wisconsin

[teal grove]

For americans, yeah

You ever wonder why?

[livid stratus]

That's like the exact opposite of texas

[ivory olive]

because the East of the country is the best, duh

[teal grove]

Because your timezone overlaps the most with the european timezones

[livid stratus]

Maryland best state, crabs r yum

[tall moss]

[pastel hollow]

phanpy needs more love 🥺

[teal grove]

(Chimbly please read)

[proven heart]

I don read

my brain just runs really fast

so i miss read alot of things

[buoyant bough]

make sure you read all the rules fully there are rules that you will very much want to know

[teal grove]

Including the one that says you cant use specific fusions

[proven heart]

ok so if I win can my money cash prize go to someone else

[tall moss]

sure

[proven heart]

I don't want money

[livid stratus]

You can give money to other people in sure pol

Lol

[teal grove]

I volunteer

[proven heart]

Husk can have my money

[tall moss]

you can give it to charity or get a month of nitro of a steam gift card or somth too

[proven heart]

if I win

they volunteered

[teal grove]

Lmfao really?

[proven heart]

yeah why not

[teal grove]

Just get nitro or smth from kiwi

[livid stratus]

Can husk and I split it

Lol

[proven heart]

ok fine : (

[livid stratus]

College is spendy

😂

[tall moss]

please read the rules tho cuz your entries may get disqualified if you dont

[proven heart]

yeah I read them

[teal grove]

Yeah same, im in university

[proven heart]

no collabs but custom bases are aloud

keep the body the same size of the vanilla pokemon

[livid stratus]

Don't do ones already done

[proven heart]

only baby/first stage pokemon

no single stage pokemon ie mew or smeargle

: (

[buoyant bough]

it's little cup after all

[teal grove]

This here is the most important rule by a long shot

[proven heart]

I'll do three fusions

maybe 4 if I'm feeling it

[livid stratus]

I haven't been checking gallery but I have been checking the game files, so there's a small chance one of mine may have been done in the last month by the time I make all of my fusions, but I don't really care, it's gonna go in the game as an alt or a main even if it's disqualified from the comp

Gotta go, have an exam

[proven heart]

love how igglybuff's gen 5 sprite is a perfect base for my fusion : )

[slow gyro]

I think Kiwi said that as far as it isn’t in the game and the calc, it’s available

But I’m not sure

[silver solar]

No, gotta check sprite gallery too

Anything posted before the announcement is taken

Luckily there isn’t usually a ton of posts for one specific species each month

[slow gyro]

I thought that meant that I couldn’t use any sprite made before the announcement

[slow gyro]

In case that I made something that could work for the contest I mean

[silver solar]

It means the fusions posted before it arent valid

[near horizon]

It looks like i'm doing a Trapinch contest so far x) (i've only posted trapinch sprites for the contest yet xD)

[teal grove]

It's a bit crazy to think that only about half a year ago most contests still had under 30 entries at most

Now multiple people are surpassing that number on their own because mone

And i agree

[buoyant bough]

i keep forgetting this contest has a monetary prize 😅

[slow gyro]

Hi I love money

https://tenor.com/view/hello-money-giveittome-mr-krabs-spongebob-gif-4184913

[thick harness]

Yeah I don't personally care about the cash incentive (but I'll still take it if I somehow win 👀)

[slow gyro]

Im not participating just cause of the money, but wining a bit of extra money from spriting would be a really good help

[teal grove]

Ill also be able to flex that i got money with pixel art

[buoyant bough]

my previous job was as a pixel artist

[supple olive]

I didn't check if a fusion existed correctly a d I made a new mon for the competition but it was already taken...

[teal grove]

My utmost respect to people who are good enough at pixel art to make money

[buoyant bough]

if y'all every play habbo just know that some of that shit? i made that

[slow gyro]

I need it

[slow gyro]

Dude, im pretty sure you are, we’re just lacking the opportunities

[proven heart]

uuuhhhhh

[buoyant bough]

pixel art is a weird one to find jobs for tbh, my last job was kinda random luck haha

indie projects are probably the way to go

[proven heart]

yeah

[buoyant bough]

i've also done one-off pixel art commissions before tho, people do want them

[proven heart]

love the pixel art for pizza tower

[buoyant bough]

same it's so good

[proven heart]

it's weird it looks "bad" but looks really good and plays very smooth in animation

[teal grove]

That's really nice to hear

[proven heart]

so how do be submit sprites for this comitition

cause all i did was say it was for Little Cup

#1091103058001412147

[pastel hollow]

i had an animation professor that once helped me understand,
its not about skills as an artist, but skills as a social navigator that finds opportunities to sell their skills

[digital valley]

There’s a Google Drive link in the contest details

[proven heart]

so I put the sprite in there

[digital valley]

Upload contest entries there yes

[proven heart]

can I have a link to this drive link

[digital valley]

Include a folder with your discord name and numbers

[buoyant bough]

it's above where the rules are

in #special-contest

[supple olive]

Have any of the baby Pokemon NOT been fused with mime jr??

[proven heart]

Hey so I'm doing Mudkip/Riolu

I'm claiming it

cause I'm the mudkip person

the real one

not the fake one

[plucky arch]

uhhh i can check real fast

are you talking in general, or contest eligible?

[digital valley]

They probably mean eligible

[sterile pasture]

I'm working on MimeJr/Ponyta :>

[proven heart]

nice

I just did Amipom/Igglypuff

working on Mudkip/Riolu

[hollow gull]

I feel like there should be a claim system cause theoretically someone could finish my WIP sprite before I finish it

But

That would ruin choicen't

[tall moss]

you can make the same fusions as other contest entries

[sterile pasture]

You can kinda claim in the spreadsheet, but not everyone's gonna check that

[proven heart]

just @ everyone

[tall moss]

its only stuff from before the comp thats off limits

[proven heart]

[tall moss]

i wanna see 50 of every little cup chinchou

[hollow gull]

That makes me even pissier about that sword whale that was posted the day before the contest

[proven heart]

I can make a chinchou fusion

[hollow gull]

@turbid jackal WHYYYYY

[plucky arch]

according to my calculations

these are all the mime jr baby combos that havent been made

[digital valley]

definitely does not check any of the spreadsheets, also is not part of any team

[hollow gull]

Not even kidding it was literally the day before the contest was announced

I'm going to irl

[proven heart]

damn

[supple olive]

#sprite-gallery

[wide flower]

sorry if this is a stupid question, but im seeing a lot of posts about the little cup contest but im not sure where to actually find the rules for it and stuff

[sterile pasture]

#special-contest

[slow gyro]

I’ve made two so far

If I have a good idea, I’ll make a third one

[proven heart]

making my second

waiting for feedback on #1091103058001412147

[wide knoll]

i think im gonna post my fifth sprite to gallery and go play rain world or something so i dont think of more ideas

[proven heart]

My third is gonna be a chinchou fusion

[plucky arch]

i made a chinchou but it immediately got outdone

i refuse to make anymore tho

[hollow gull]

Who made Psyduck

[plucky arch]

these are just the Babies

[wide knoll]

there are other pokemon eligible that arent strictly baby pokes

from what i can tell, theres no mime jr psyducks

theres no in the calc, no results in the gallery

[turbid jackal]

hhuh

[plucky arch]

yes i know, its because gwwtd asked specifically about babies

[thick jolt]

i swear pichu body was available on the chart thing when i made mine?

[plucky arch]

maybe it is idk

[hollow gull]

If you have posted it a day later for the contest I could've posted mine

Had*

[turbid jackal]

haw haw

[tawdry oak]

I took MimeJr Munchlax

[thick jolt]

i think aslong as it wasnt before contest its fine right?? cause i was also making a mime munch, it was also not on the chart 😭

[sterile pasture]

Yes, that's what kiwi said

[sterile pasture]

here

[plucky arch]

there can be dupe contest entries tho

[rough kindle]

Did it end up too big or is the size fine? It's inflated and shows of more body area than the Paras sprite, so I was wondering if this was still okay or not.

[misty acorn]

If you had just thrown it into the drive without mentioning it, nobody would have probably said anything

[limber venture]

too big, remake the whole sprite

[south marlin]

It looks fine to me. The body area is generally the same, it's mostly the addition of the "balloons" that makes it larger

[tall moss]

looks good!

[supple olive]

I took mime jr/wynaut

[plucky arch]

wdym take??

[sterile pasture]

That's kidnapping

[slow gyro]

Pokenapping

[ivory olive]

Pokidnapping

[balmy ibex]

any news on what that poll meant?

[tall moss]

we havent hit 500 entries yet

wer at 458

[ivory olive]

damn

[slow gyro]

I have 10 still of feedback phase

I’ll be hitting 22 sprites for the contest

[cloud pulsar]

oh yeah the contest entries

i forgot about those

i need to upload mine

[plucky arch]

i have 1 in a feedback thread with 0 letters, and one that has some letters but no comments

then ill do 1 more and get to 20, which will prolly be a voltorb, i dont wanna burn out

plus i dont have any more Ideas

[proven heart]

#1091173818845896784

he's my little clown boy

[silver solar]

I have 7 to post to the gallery and then add to the drive

Like right now

[silver solar]

There, 7 closer to 500

[tall moss]

motherfuck

[turbid jackal]

huehuehue

[edgy turtle]

What you get when you make such a silly poll.

[plucky arch]

lets go boys we got this

[cloud pulsar]

how did that happen

[valid nacelle]

What's the difference? Just wanna know before I vote...

[teal grove]

Well then im really fucked lmao

[crisp whale]

I just became the 141st vote, so I guess I tipped the scales

[teal grove]

Quick, tell us who's winning

[slow gyro]

I wanted to make a joke but only works in Spanish

Ima say it in Spanish anyways

[slow gyro]

No estudio animación para nada:
Animo! Tu puedes!

[teal grove]

I dont speak spanish but ill assume it's a great joke

[slow gyro]

“Animación” could mean either “Animate” or “Cheer”

I basically said “I’m not studying animation for noting” and then started cheering

[teal grove]

Funnily enough the only thing i understood was Tu puedes

[tawdry oak]

when?

[teal grove]

30 sketches

Im feelin a bit burned out by now lol, i want to start actually spriting my sketches now

[buoyant bough]

guys 👀 👀 👀

490 entries

10 to go!!

[buoyant bough]

@wispy moon looks like you have a duplicate entry in your folder, just fyi!

[wispy moon]

Yeah I had bad wifi and it duplicated it

[buoyant bough]

@rain vapor your entries are named incorrectly! they need to be named with the dex numbers like so: head.body - for example your budew/eevee would be named 400.133

@crude cedar you also have a duplicate entry in your folder!

it just looks like it uploaded twice

nice! i'm just going through the entries to see if there's anything making the count inaccurate and let people know if their entries are incorrectly named so they don't get disqualified etc

[digital valley]

hopes mine is fine as I struggle to even load the Drive

[buoyant bough]

@plucky arch you have a misnamed entry in your folder - it's named "tyrogue (9)" (even tho there is no tyrogue in it lol)

[buoyant bough]

you have 7 entries in your folder and they all look fine to me!

[digital valley]

Good. After we hit 500+ entries I don’t know if my computer could even handle opening it to add more

(Working on getting a new one)

[buoyant bough]

aw no :< would keeping just your own folder open and not loading the rest of the folders be less intensive for your computer?

[digital valley]

I actually tried that… and it crashed my computer in the middle of my last entry

[buoyant bough]

unless keeping it open all the time is also too much (i just keep things open in tabs 24/7 so i forget other people close them lmao)

oh noo

i'm sure i'f you're having trouble uploading you could message a mod to upload on your behalf?

[digital valley]

Probably if it came down to it

[teal grove]

So wait

Your computer crashes if you open the drive

Even though rn when you open it, only the folders are loaded and not their contents?

[digital valley]

It struggles but it loads the folders seemingly. But having it open too long is probable what did it I think

[buoyant bough]

do you use google drive in browser?

[digital valley]

Yeah. It’s a mac so i use safari. I think if I used Chrome it would probably crash more

I suppose if I transferred entries to my phone and uploaded from the app, it might work, but at the same time, not sure if my phone would do The Thing(tm) of adding a white bg that was never there for some reason

[buoyant bough]

you could try that, and i could double check the entries for you if you like?

[digital valley]

I could use something as a test real quick

Okay seems to work fine

[buoyant bough]

yay!

[plucky arch]

oh damn which one?

[buoyant bough]

the snubbul/geodude (iirc)

[plucky arch]

ohh yeah

its cause i use the same canvas for all of em, so all my LC entries are Tyrogues and all my voltorbs are Cloysters

[buoyant bough]

why does that sound so funny to me lol

[silver solar]

Luckily I spotted an error in my file names before i galleried

[buoyant bough]

"all my voltorbs are cloysters "

[silver solar]

Mantyke/riolu was a 284 instead of a 384

What even is 284

Swampert

[tall moss]

are we at 500 yet?

[sleek drum]

never

[silver solar]

Apparently i have like 80 fusions I’m interested in doing for this contest

[ivory olive]

go count, your contest >:)

[tall moss]

ill check when i get to work then

why count when i can just download the folder and right click > properties

[ivory olive]

wait what

[tall moss]

a little bit of computer literacy goes a long way

[buoyant bough]

491 entries currently

[ivory olive]

you're telling me we could just count like that this whole time

[buoyant bough]

gotta make it -2 the properties total bc it includes the example and a double in someone's folder 👍

(which is why i was checking stuff earlier)

[slow gyro]

I’ll upload my ten in like two hours when I get to my work

And then will be more than 500

[teal grove]

Whatever happens, im probably waking up to find the next choice award

I hope one of my sketches qualifies for it

[crude cedar]

What exactly do each mean, and which one is supposed to be the Higher Tier? (For the Mega Lucario and Mega Mewtwo comparison)

[teal grove]

Then i dont have to think of new ideas

[buoyant bough]

waking up? you haven't slept yet???

[teal grove]

No one knows

[teal grove]

It's almodt 4 pm

[slow gyro]

I just woke up

And you haven’t sleep anything?

[teal grove]

Im just assuming that kiwi will post once im asleep

Which will be in like

[buoyant bough]

we're so close tho so i think it'll happen p soon

[teal grove]

6 hours

[slow gyro]

Time differences feels weird

[late sequoia]

Just need 8 more entries for 500

[crude cedar]

I mean is it supposed to be based on Design of the Sprites, or the Strength of the Pokemon themselves?

[buoyant bough]

yep, at 492 now!

[teal grove]

Im serious, no one knows

I dont even think the results matter

[buoyant bough]

i'm assuming the vote determines which choicen't award we learn next but there's no way to know

[slow gyro]

We’ll get both of the poll ends 50/50

[crude cedar]

We're going to have had 500 within 6 Days... Kind of Scary when you think about how that is only 1/5th of the Overall time we have for this Contest

[buoyant bough]

people go crazy at the start, then we'll slow down in the middle and there'll probably be another rush near the end

[teal grove]

Yeup

[slow gyro]

I’m already at two polls, I’ll probably end up with like 4 or 5 polls

[buoyant bough]

damn how many entries have you done

[teal grove]

Im at 2 as well, but i still need to sprite all my entries from their sketches

[buoyant bough]

polls can hold 20 options iirc

[teal grove]

32 entries total

[crude cedar]

Hm... You know what? I just thought of a hilarious idea

[buoyant bough]

i think i had around 20 ideas, have sprited 7 so far

[crude cedar]

What if the next Goal after 500 is "1000 within 10 more days"?

[teal grove]

We'll reach it

We got 500 in 6 days, we can get another 500 in ten days most likely

[buoyant bough]

everyone make an alt for each of your entries

[crude cedar]

We could put Time Limits or Deadlines on the Goals is what I mean

[teal grove]

Still, 1000 entries for a contest is wild

Dont think thatll be reached ever again

[slow gyro]

22 i think

[teal grove]

Watch the next contest be like "1 entry per person"

[slow gyro]

Watch me

[buoyant bough]

tbh i like the unlimited entries but you fight yourself in the first round, bc then i don't have to try and think about what my best idea is and just leave it to the votes

it's essentially like having 1 (or 2 in this case) entries per person but with extra steps and more effort spent

[slow gyro]

Yea, but the other entries also count for the choose awards

[plucky arch]

i made 20 entries because at this point ive got quite a handful in there that could be up for awards

[tall moss]

i know other staff do too, i spoilered them

[plucky arch]

and im goin back to working on other things

[slow gyro]

@tall moss are we at 500 now?

[crude cedar]

Do you mean that the other staff DO know, or that they also don't know?

[slow gyro]

That they also know

[tall moss]

they know 👀

[plucky arch]

https://tenor.com/view/riddler-paul-dano-new-rockstars-does-he-know-gif-26833694

[buoyant bough]

not quite, 492

[tall moss]

btw i hate all of you

[plucky arch]

quick make 8 sprites

[slow gyro]

I already made them

I just haven’t uploaded them

[crude cedar]

Oh shoot! Is that the Lucario/Mewtwo?

[silver solar]

I have 3 made and 3 recolored the head color

Including the black lines

I make those random neon color first

[slow gyro]

Ima keep making zorua entries cause it’s funny making a Pokemon a fan of MCR

[silver solar]

I’m focusing on sneasel, vulpix, amd shinx

Mostly because i dont wanna stare at meowth, and i dont wanna make zoroark later

[slow gyro]

Most of my entries where selected for my friends lol

[tall moss]

yes, its been at 50-50 every time i peek at the results

[silver solar]

I 100% plan to finish the evo lines later unless someone else makes them

[slow gyro]

I show them the picture with the baby Pokemon and asked them to pick two

[silver solar]

I just picked my favorite babies and made every valid combo

[slow gyro]

I have the power of randomness by my side

[silver solar]

Then for chinchou, kiwi made vulpix now valid right before the announcement and someone else was working on shinx before the announcement so i decided to consider that not valid

[slow gyro]

For chinchou I made a beldum and a Wailmer

[buoyant bough]

i have made 0 chinchou

[slow gyro]

I wanted to do Emo (Zorua) Chinchou but was already made

[slow gyro]

Échale ganas mije

[silver solar]

I’m doing sneasel

Because, sneasel is the only one of my 3 I consider valid

[buoyant bough]

i will only make one depending on what the other awards end up being, i can hazard a guess based on the first choicen't but we will see

[slow gyro]

One of the Chinchou I made could also work for the derpy one

[plucky arch]

i just made 1 chinchou

but then Mael made the same combo but better like 2 days later

[slow gyro]

Then it’s your duty to make an even better chinchou

[silver solar]

I’m trying to decide which way I should go with chinchou. But i can figure it out when i get home

Like i have 2 ideas for the angler parts

[crude cedar]

Next contest Venonat contest 🤭🤭🤭

[ivory olive]

do both

[silver solar]

I mean, I guess i could

[teal grove]

Can you spoiler me too

Im staff too

[plucky arch]

absolutely not Chinchou is my enemy

ive already made 2 now, thats 2 too many

[molten crater]

are there even any chinchou body fusions yet to be done? At this point people probably finished them

[plucky arch]

yeah there are plenty

yknow what else there are plenty of:

Voltorb Head Fusions

you should totally do some

[buoyant bough]

currently at 494 👀

[plucky arch]

we got this boys

[molten crater]

I made wailmer/electrode and that will be my humble contribution to that

[buoyant bough]

me recounting like every 10 minutes instead of actually working on this fusion

[crude cedar]

I'm not going to spoil anything about the Mega Lucario VS Mega Mewtwo, but one thing I see and will point out is that at least one of them has over 15 Colors.

[tall moss]

yall are free to theorize about the meaning off the poll as much as you want

[late sequoia]

Kiwi thrives in the chaos they create with these vague polls

[crude cedar]

Well whether it be Power/Battling or Design, one of the two qualifies and succeeds better in both categories

[hybrid shell]

thought it was which of the sprites you’d be better at working with

[crude cedar]

If that were true then it wouldn't be constantly tied

[timid shore]

is the poll still tied?

[late sequoia]

Last update from Kiwi said it was. idk about now

[crude cedar]

Since Kiwi last checked and showed us, yes. But it's anonymous for now.

[timid shore]

amazing

[slow gyro]

I’ve just uploaded my 10 sprites to the drive

Now we’re definitely over 500

[buoyant bough]

@tall moss it's time

[crude cedar]

Give her a moment

[silver merlin]

heres my theory

leaks the meaning behind them

:>

[buoyant bough]

oh no that wasn't a demand i was just letting her know we were over 500 😅

she said to ping her when we got there

[crude cedar]

No, I mean give them a moment cuz they have a Day Job

And can't respond or find time to respond until around the Afternoon

[buoyant bough]

i know dw 👍

[livid stratus]

yay, 500

that means I am 1% of all submissions

gotta step up my game

[timid shore]

im not even 1% lol

[livid stratus]

a lot of people are making lots of sketches and then will go on a spriting spree, I just make whatever comes to mind in that instance.

so I have 5 sprites and 0 sketches lol

[crude cedar]

I am 2%

[plucky arch]

500 hm

i would be,

4%

of all submissions

[steel quest]

i wanted to make a LC fusion that looks like this lil boi but idk what pokemon i should use

[teal grove]

Poliwag and something

Perhaps goldeen

[plucky arch]

maybe Anorith

[thick harness]

I was thinking Anorith and something like wooper

[slow gyro]

Im doing emo baby Pokemon

[thin dove]

what kind of a question for special contests is that, Kiwi

maybe if you had like a "you tried" esque totodile underneath a semi-decent fusion I could say "yeah that's me" lmao

[silver merlin]

hmm

i should do a sprite for the contest

and yes kiwi

i will forget to post it

[tall moss]

do very many

[silver merlin]

wfgywf IVE GOT COMMS TO GET TO LOL

[tawdry oak]

[whole bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/sweating-nervous-paranoid-gif-4974019

you guys sketch?

Must be why I only have 3 lmao

[thick harness]

I sketch and I still only have three sprites lol

i'm just a slow spriter

[whole bronze]

I have trouble coming up with ideas for the contest

I did make a chinchou at least. I have nothing for the littlest cup though

[silver merlin]

i never sketch out sprites beforehand lol

i find it quicker to just go with the flow

[thick harness]

I do both; my latest sprite was a go with the flow and I think it turned out great, but then the one before was the same situation and I completely ran into a roadblock and have scrapped it for now

[whole bronze]

That's how I feel. Usually I have an image in mind when I start so it's better for me to just start spriting before I change my mind about anything lol

[thick harness]

generally though I think my best sprites have been sprites that i've sketched out first and ironed out the details ahead of time

[whole bronze]

I'm just not any good at sketching or drawing, but pixels seem very structured to me, which makes it easier

[pastel hollow]

ill sketch when i need to do something complicated or weird in any way

sometimes i just go straight into it though

or sketch at the 96x96 scale and deal with the mess :B

[teal grove]

i do it for the custom bases

[distant sedge]

so happy I finally managed to create a sprite, hopefully more to go XD

[tawdry oak]

5 Entries complete (:

[teal grove]

wow honedge' color palette sucks ass

for honedge itself it's fine; but it sucks as the head fusion on other mons

[whole bronze]

Gotta metalize 'em lol

actually... you just gave me an idea..

[buoyant bough]

im working on a honedge head fusion rn, havent got to the colouring yet but yeah that yellow..

[teal grove]

the gray is especially awful

too much contrast

[heady escarp]

an emo contest?

[slow gyro]

As a MCR fan, I can confirm that working Zorua is really fun

This one’s my favorite so far

I imagine he’s listening to Helena

I love that song

[sage coral]

why did i think he was holding a death note

[slow gyro]

He’s holding the “Three Cheers Fo Sweet Revenge” album

From MCR

[silver solar]

I’m gonna try to get an average of 4 sprites done a day for the contest to get all the stuff i want to do done

[slow gyro]

I’m wondering, what music do you listen to?

[silver solar]

4 a day leaves 5 days for finalizing the last batch with feedback from spritework

I listen to whatever, my taste is varied but lyrical

[slow gyro]

A favorite band or artist?

[silver solar]

A song has to be an absolute banger for me to go out of my way to listen to it if it doesn’t have lyrics

Uh, Aviators has yet to put out anything i dont like

[slow gyro]

Lately I’ve been listening a lot of emo music

[silver solar]

I dont listen to the ones without lyrics but they’re still good

[slow gyro]

MCR, Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Etc

But my favorite band is The Warning

[silver solar]

Yeah i have a few fall out boy songs in my list

[slow gyro]

I think i don’t know them

[silver solar]

Its one dude

I can link his youtube or spotify when i get home if you want

Whichever you prefer

[slow gyro]

Anything works tbh

And you’ll listen to The Warning

I love those girls

[silver solar]

I might try but idk if I’ll like em

My taste is varied but also weird

[slow gyro]

The Warning have a lot of “Angry Fuck you Songs”

[silver solar]

Tbh a lot of what i listen to is music i found by search (insert fandom here) songs

[slow gyro]

Girls Hating the World might be my favorite music genre

[heady escarp]

I raise you my last zorua

[slow gyro]

Emo girl

Dude you could have just grabbed Gothitelle and recolored it

Maybe as a joke alt

[heady escarp]

nooo

here

[slow gyro]

:00

[heady escarp]

what<'

that is the contest about?

[digital valley]

Gothitelle kinda D tier design. Make better goth girls GameFreak

[silver solar]

279/601 songs in my liked songs list are from here

https://open.spotify.com/artist/3xNCp8cktZ1IGwRregR2yO?si=D7yXR_7JTnS-NAe4Xyb5_g&dd=1

That’s almost half of the songs on what i use as my playlist for work

[heady escarp]

@slow gyro btw

[pastel hollow]

ooh i just found a fun fusion that hasnt been done >:0

[tall moss]

omw home

ill release the next choice award when i get there

[plucky arch]

im praying its tied rn

[tall moss]

it is not

one has 5 more votes than the other

[plucky arch]

NOO

[ivory olive]

FUCK

[late sequoia]

Quick, we need five more people to vote for the other one

[plucky arch]

we were so close, we did it for so long

[ivory olive]

BUT WHICH ONE IS THE OTHER

[late sequoia]

They gotta go off a gut feeling. I would say which one I think is down, but rule 7

[tall moss]

the mega one

[ivory olive]

thanks

[tall moss]

its now 6 votes apart

[plucky arch]

carbon you fucked us

[worldly fractal]

6 peoples should remove their votes since we can do that. thought still have to guess on which one.

[ivory olive]

HOW IS THAT MY FAULT TEE

HOW

[late sequoia]

whistles innocently

[tall moss]

yall keep making the rift worse

[late sequoia]

I haven't touched my vote since the initial casting lol.

[tall moss]

its 8 apart now, someone swapped

[late sequoia]

lol I think its time we admit "defeat" at keeping it even

[tall moss]

Why is trapinch so popular?

[late sequoia]

[digital valley]

[limber venture]

[livid stratus]

[stiff valley]

is that just a grinding challenge

[livid stratus]

someones gonna make 100 sprites for the award

[stiff valley]

omw to make the laziest fusions on earth

[livid stratus]

and someone else will be like hehe

103

and yoink it

[livid stratus]

exactly

[ivory olive]

someone check the number rn

[grand tusk]

it's about the grind 💪💵 💵

[livid stratus]

quantity over quality garuntees money

[tall moss]

i thought more people would guess it considering this big ass hint

[whole bronze]

Yeah I'm not even gonna try for that award lmao

[livid stratus]

whereas quality could make money

[plucky arch]

ohhh goodness

i already made 20 do i gotta grind out 20 more

[ivory olive]

I made 15 :|

[cloud pulsar]

#special-contest im not getting that new categorie

[plucky arch]

basically whoever has the most submissions wins it

[cedar quest]

That hint works if one of 2 things are true.

1: You're using mobile and can see the file name that way
2: You manually open up the file in browser to see the file name

[tall moss]

15 is really good so far

[plucky arch]

whos that 22 i will DESTROY them

[cedar quest]

((Way #3 is you're Staff and you already knew ))

[sterile pasture]

So what would the challenge have been if it was the adaptable ability/Lucario? 😮

[ivory olive]

I bet it's Elev'n

[livid stratus]

thats prob the 750 goal

[crude cedar]

im at 11

[cedar quest]

The real hint Kiwi dropped was the use of ability here that y'all shoulda picked up on

[midnight pumice]

Maybe if the contest was made at the beggining of the month, I could have tried to get the steadfast, sadly I am now too burned out to make 100 more fusions after making 100 bidoofs in a month (I also haven't submitted a pokemon to the constest )

[limber venture]

way #4 youre ME and you guess AWESOMELY

[cloud pulsar]

me dying at two entries

[limber venture]

kiwi wheres my choice choice award for guessing the choice award hint choice

i deserve one single cent

[ivory olive]

I think technically you could submit all those Bidoofs you made since the 25th

[plucky arch]

theyve got 14

[ivory olive]

depends on which bidoofs tho

[ivory olive]

damn

[tall moss]

adaptability: using as many different mons as possible thru all your entries

[midnight pumice]

all of the bidoofs I made in that timezone are fused with a last stage 🥹

[ivory olive]

ok thank god I voted Mewtwo then

[plucky arch]

ooo thatdve been fun

[sterile pasture]

Oh man that would have been great

I voted Lucario too

[ivory olive]

mega oof

[plucky arch]

i wouldve done pretty dope on that i think

[tall moss]

i was hoping for the other one too but now well get MORE ENTRIES

[plucky arch]

most of mine are unique, only some overlap in like, Igglybuff and Voltorb

[cerulean ice]

I'm excited to see what comes of this new challenge~

[plucky arch]

im kinda glad we got Steadfast

but thats immense bias since it seems im tied for second

[cerulean ice]

There's no way I'll make enough sprites to have a chance at either, so I'm just enjoying the ride. XD

I'm already working on mostly unique species fusions. My only overlap is two Anorith.

[plucky arch]

hmmm i already have 1 claimed

hmmm i need a Charmander anyway for my sprite chart so i might as well figure out a contest sprite for em

[cerulean ice]

Charmander/Venonat so our sprites can duel to the death.

[plucky arch]

itd be a head so thatll be

fun
