lusty pewter

fathom glade
#

Ahh

One of my friends does a bunch of meloettas too

south meteor
#

Froslass, maybe?

lusty pewter
#

ayy nice

#

melo hype Venopog

fathom glade
#

Meloetta is pretty gentlyholds

south meteor
#

It's a smaller body than Milotic but it can hold some details.

fathom glade
#

Very true

#

I havent done many fish tho

south meteor
#

Cute Skitty ear hoodie with big loose sleeves and a false tail in the back. Or maybe it's a real tail, up to you.

fathom glade
#

Maybe ill do

#

Skitty frosslass

#

And delcatty milotic

fathom glade
#

Idea has been stolen graciously taken

south meteor
#

You're welcome~

fathom glade
#

Now im gonna go back to sleep and draw that later heehee

lusty pewter
#

go get some rest! takes out sleepy hammer

south meteor
#

Oh mah gah that is gorgeous, hex~ One of my faves too~

lusty pewter
#

thank you :3

icy jasper
shrewd garnet
#

I thought we should but i heard somewhere we shouldnt so idk lol

lusty pewter
#

you should if you want feeedback but it's not necessary

lusty pewter
icy jasper
#

I still want to post mine anyways allthethings

lusty pewter
#

go ahead, would love to see what concept you make 👀

acoustic saddle
#

stare does fully sprited art count as concept ?

#

(clueless )

carmine falcon
acoustic saddle
#

Azusob ccus thats all i can do

carmine falcon
#

I can't even sprite that well too

crude cedar
shrewd garnet
#

Its like making a normal sprite but on a wayyyyyyyy bigger scale and also details that dont necessarily fit the guidelines

acoustic saddle
shrewd garnet
#

I mean the swablu u made

acoustic saddle
sly shuttle
#

Monke

acoustic saddle
ancient palm
#

😨

acoustic saddle
lusty pewter
#

just make a 288x288 size pixel-art concept art I think that should count

#

I think... pain

sly shuttle
#

Or remake your sprite with modeling clay

woven kettle
#

Nobody knows how to make a concept for the contest

void sluice
#

meow

woven kettle
#

They should’ve give examples

void sluice
#

I was gonna say I will be making a concept art to win

woven kettle
#

Next thing you know someone makes a masterpiece and just says “That’s how I make concept art)

lusty pewter
#

join us

shrewd garnet
#

Hehehe

lusty pewter
#

one of us... one of us...

woven kettle
lusty pewter
woven kettle
#

And not just sending people there

shrewd garnet
#

Posts my concept arts

limpid sphinx
sly shuttle
#

Not mine
Made by @ theredesigner

lusty pewter
#

also I think the vagueness is part of the contest, somewhat. any will work since people make concept art differently

woven kettle
#

I see I see

limpid sphinx
#

if the point is Concept art for sprites, then what matters is how well it can be translated to a sprite

#

just that

#

you can even draw in a paper with a pencil

#

and send a pic of it to the drive

lusty pewter
#

that works too

limpid sphinx
#

if its well done and could easily be translated to sprite, works.

sly shuttle
#

Especially for Pokemon design density

shrewd garnet
#

Now im nervous about my sprites lol,,,,,

woven kettle
#

Characters interaction

limpid sphinx
#

for that reason my tip is focus on your concept outlines... 😛

shrewd garnet
#

Like i think theyre ok but what if tjeres a detail im missing O^O

lusty pewter
#

character interactions? 👀

woven kettle
#

If you can’t answer that

#

Don’t bother joining this contest

acoustic saddle
#

like follegee made a full pledge art as concept lol

woven kettle
shrewd garnet
#

Maybe its like. Does the art have ~character~? Does it tell a story? Etc

limpid sphinx
lusty pewter
#

ooh maybe

limpid sphinx
lusty pewter
#

XD

limpid sphinx
#

we live in a simulation

lusty pewter
#

datorre be living in an actual metaverse pain

acoustic saddle
#

concept is one thing, the sprite result is another big part

#

like even the concept was amazing, it not 100 sure the sprite will be the same, too much detail in concept for ex

lusty pewter
#

you just described most of my concept arts blurry_pain

acoustic saddle
#

and also a great spiter can even make a great sprite just from a simple concept art

void sluice
#

y'all are so talenteeed

lusty pewter
#

dew it

#

just dew it

#

I command request you

acoustic saddle
#

so just judge the concept based how good the art are, seem quite unfair for the potentially one

acoustic saddle
lusty pewter
#

yus I will, tomorrow cuz it's getting late XD

#

I also wanna quickly join the scale texture contest, not sure if I will win tho considering hero is in and their tyrantrum sprites are legendary

heady panther
near horizon
#

you all have one thing more than me

#

concept art

#

i don't know how to make concept art

#

so basically ... i'm (almost) always spriting without a concept art

#

but yeah, i have the concept in my head but i can't make concept art x)

heady panther
#

What's the concept?

near horizon
heady panther
#

Oh ok

near horizon
#

the only time i tried to make a concept art it was .... bad, really bad

lusty pewter
near horizon
#

anyways, for the concept art contest, it's non if plus if right ?

random girder
#

cant be that bad

lusty pewter
#

yeah

random girder
#

i make stick figures

lusty pewter
#

non if + if

near horizon
heady panther
#

This is what I have for concept art

lusty pewter

#

Tropius

#

The rectangle things on the leafs reminded me of lugias fingers

lusty pewter
#

that's tropius?! 👀

heady panther
#

Tropius and lugia

lusty pewter
#

I could've sworn it's a metalic fusion

#

especially with the segments on its belly and neck and stuff

#

it looks like metal plating XD

#

or at least to me it is pain

heady panther
#

Tropius has leaf armor I'm pretty sure

#

And the thing separating the top and bottom part of the mouth is on tropius too

lusty pewter
#

ooh, ok I didn't know tropius has that neck part

heady panther
#

Ye

lusty pewter
#

but the leaf armor I def wasn't able to guess lol

#

I thought it look more... leaf-y

heady panther
#

Yeah

lusty pewter
#

but no, apparently it's flat like metal sheets

heady panther
#

Yeah

lusty pewter
#

darn you tropius XD

heady panther
#

I also changed the things on lugias back and tail into bananas

#

I'm bad at drawing bananas so if they didn't look like them it's on me

#

Once I add color everything will be more visible

lusty pewter
#

yeah I think colors would def help

#

as for the banana, you could try adding skin lines to show the shape more

#

at first I think those are flat metal sheets that looks like those propellers/side wings of a plane

heady panther
#

Is this better (sorry if I didn't understand what you meant)

lusty pewter
#

yeah, the line doesn't exacly show the shape of the banana well but that's what I meant

fathom glade
#

Wasnt there a size guide for the concept contest? They had to be square

lusty pewter
#

I think? I wasn't too focus on the square canvas tho ngl I just draw whatever and most of the time it works cuz melo's body is so small you get extra space to move around with

shrewd garnet
#

Never heard about that lol

lusty pewter
#

one of the very few benefit on spriting meloetta fusions XD

near horizon
#

i submitted this for the concept art contest : (bergmite/goomy)

limpid sphinx
#

kinda hard to see gomy but it looks cute

near horizon
thorny saddle

#

Oooh ok

tulip tusk
gleaming acorn
#

I am going to make Anti-Propaganda and come up with a concept art that shows why you really do not want Kommo-o added to the game because spriting that is a nightmare

feral surge
#

I submitted thisgeorge

gleaming acorn
#

him BOOTS!!

feral surge
#

it has much thicker outlines than I do in concept art for myself so it's somewhat spritable to others after shrinking

near horizon
#

hey guys, is it a good thing if the more i progress on a sprite the more i want to kill it ?

gleaming acorn
#

That sounds very good and normal and definitely like a healthy progression

near horizon
#

i mean, one of my layer is this mrshrug

gleaming acorn
#

Hmmm now I want to kill it

near horizon

I feel like I will regret this, but yes

there is a google doc with the tourney details in that message

#

how far in is the game?

supple epoch
#

Tried tourney for the first time, wholloped on the first round. Full Team got Nuzloked and whited out headempty

carmine falcon
#

Last tourney I got pretty far

#

with a 30 minute team

#

maybe I'll particapate next time

tulip tusk
#

my first round <3

#

species clause was needed

cedar quest
#

Doubles is just NOT refined at all lmao

#

I had no clue there was no species clause for it trolley

supple epoch

That is why the Porys are banned next tourney

Is the tourney still going?

tired jay
#

I don't think the winner has chosen a mon yet though

placid briar
#

imagine if he won because he likes showdown and not because he knew there was an event

random girder
#

Walks into the sunset leaving the server behind

#

-1 mon choice

tulip tusk
#

i call dibs on the mon choice if they don't choose one /j

random girder
#

No

#

We just lose one

placid briar
#

i mean some will rejoice because that means less competition for their favorites wanting to get in

tulip tusk
#

can I show a concept for the concept art event? I just want to show this design

random girder
#

Relax guys

#

Dude might be asleep

#

Timezones

south meteor
#

Man, I really wanna put this nice detailed thing (a night sky with moon and stars) in my concept art, but maybe a boring design would be safer because it's easier to sprite.

tulip tusk
#

I kinda want to polish this concept

random girder
#

Furfrou has so much DP but barely anybody wants it in

ancient palm

thorny saddle
#

I feel like escavalier has a ton of potential too but im just blanking on what to do with it Despair

#

But yeah chimechos fun

lusty pewter
#

how about fusing it with arcanine? have it be a dogo knight with jousting spear (or a real one, which ever works)

south meteor
#

What does DP stand for besides Diamond Pearl, dog points? Design potential?

acoustic saddle

Ooh, I see~

Yeah no. Trollgar

What does it stand for then

This is encroaching on Rule 2, just a heads-up

Anyway, obligatory LC when post

Please don’t feed into this lol; carrying this out is just juvenile

merry mica
#

i love dp
its my fave gen : >

lusty pewter
#

you might think I'm joking but I actually don't know what dp means... in general. I just assume it means "potential" or smth

tulip tusk
#

oh wait I just realized what it is

errant shard
#

See why I’m trying to get them to change the subject then? This isn’t the proper venue. . .

random girder
#

Anyways

lusty pewter

XD

random girder
#

How long is it until elusive Dex results are out?

errant shard
#

My guess is it’ll be out before the emote/sticker contest; so soon-ish?

eh sometime in 2025

mobile curse strikes again

#

Am I supposed to use the Share function after uploading to my own drive? Recipient being the link to the event drive? I see no other way of moving it.
There isn't even a convenient + button on the event drive.

Emote Results when? IsForMe

#

I dont even care about placement (lie) I just want Nerd Bifable

lusty pewter

We need more emojis!!!!

How come other people can upload files for me but I can't? :/

"you think your the king im the king"

south meteor
#

Is it because I'm neither a Contributor nor a Manager for these shared drives that I find myself unable to upload?

#

I really don't want to ask someone else to do it for me, but I'm receiving no help when it comes to doing it myself.

gleaming acorn
#

Google Drive is just Mean Like That sometimes, especially on mobile

granite tree
#

You won't be able to upload if that's the case

south meteor
#

I uploaded to my own drive just fine because it has the + button on the bottom right.

granite tree
#

And if you try to upload something, can you see the upload document on the upper left? I don't have experience with google drive on mobile though

#

Normally it wouldn't matter if you're a mod or a contributor, everyone can upload, check your wifi settings and stuff, turn it on and off again, all that stuff

#

Check if you're uploading in the right folder

#

Might be a reason too

south meteor
#

I can't get the shared drive to appear on my app, only on the browser and the upload button isn't there.

granite tree
#

When you go to your browser on your mobile, make sure you turn the desktop mode on

south meteor
#

Oh, that changed everything.

granite tree
#

You uploaded?

south meteor
#

The button exists on the upper left and File Upload is an option. 😮

#

Okay, I just have to fix the file name which my phone somehow won't allow me to do..

granite tree
#

That's how google drive on the computer usually works but you gotta enable it in the mobile browser 😁

south meteor
#

Mobile really is trash.

granite tree
#

To fix the file name, make a copy and rename the copy, that would work too

south meteor
#

Finally, I did it. Mini, you're my hero. Thank you so much.

granite tree
#

Awwe, no problem!

#

I'm glad you could upload 😄

south meteor
#

Hope people enjoy seeing it. :3

granite tree
#

I can see a Gothitelle Gardevoir, which is really beautiful!

south meteor
granite tree
#

The details in the umbrella are 💯 ✨ Love it!

south meteor
#

100% not for spriting, just for looks. evil

granite tree
#

I totally get you! 😄

#

I'm the same lol, I'll get like 0 points for spriteability 😂

south meteor
#

Oh, you made the Florges next to mine~

granite tree
#

Yup ☺️

south meteor
#

Very festive and colorful, I wanna dance with her. 💃

granite tree
#

Right! She's so peaceful too ✨ Super glam glam

#

I tried to make the dress look majestic with petals

south meteor
#

It's giving Mardi Gras vibes.

random girder
granite tree
#

With the eye makeup that looks like a mask, yeah 😁 It needs a machamp or machoke counterpart to dance with her

#

Maybe a thing for Nottomention if Florges gets through

south meteor
#

Yeah.. mine has one as a butler. 😮

granite tree
#

That's awesome

south meteor
#

I feel like Florges is an underrated candidate. She gets plenty of my support~

granite tree
#

There are so many pokémons that deserve support 😄 Like I'm just going for all cat pokémon, on second place every flower pokémon, including the entire Beautifly evo line and then the rest on third place

gusty frost
#

Florges + grass is goated

#

It procs herself

granite tree
#

I would like to sprite things like Florges and beautifly more but sadly, it might not be something people would want to finish the E4 with

#

I'd go for an all beautifly run though

south meteor
#

I have a mix of humanoids and mons with more human features at the top. :/

granite tree
#

It's easy to sprite fairies or star guardians or super magical girls with 💯 I love them too

south meteor
#

Oh, with Beautifly?

granite tree
#

Beautifly and Gardevoir

3 were asking about what he can pick

Bro Just apeared out of nowhere and won

random girder

He won for our v creates

#

But they cant chose mithics,can they

south meteor
#

No legends, mythicals, or starters this time. 😦

gusty frost
#

Só yes He cant chose victini

shrewd garnet
#

or ultra beasts

gusty frost
#

I Love that restriction for the general public but i think the winners could chose mons that are not starters

tired jay
#

Do the winners have a time limit for how long it can take for them to decide on a mon to pick?

gusty frost
#

Would it be rude to Ping him?

#

I wonder how suitable my submissions are 🤔 whenever stuff like this gets announced i get nervous lol

feral surge
#

I don't really have small details but I have a very big canvas so I wonder how that will size downheehee

shrewd garnet
#

Normally i dont shade my art beause it looks clearer when downscaled but i wanted my stuff to look pretty this time so i went for it anyway, hope that doesnt sacrifice too much

south meteor
#

I tried to make it as simple as I could but when it comes to making things pretty, I couldn't help myself with the embellishments. I really should know better as one who made concept art for some time now..

feral surge
#

glad I did solid shading tho smooth shading is more likely to become a blur when shrunken by a lot in my experience (could partly depend on the program used tho)

thorny saddle
#

i wonder how big the google doc squares gonna be then Thonking cause like you lose a LOT of detail if its gonna be like 100 x 100 or something

feral surge
#

well if it's going to be barely bigger than our spriting canvas it's not much of a concept anymoreheehee

merry mica
#

it should be 50x50 clueless

I think any mon that wasn't originally intended to evolve should be booted from consideration. Onix and Scyther are NOT Little Guys. Gligar can stay though.

It was really close; there were a lot of good submissions

it seems like neither of my three entries made it into the contest з: oh well

#

can't even find them in the contest results sheet

regal palm
#

Same

random girder
#

no wait

#

it seems that uh

#

they're publishing results like

#

tier wise

#

so its like we rushed them to get the winner out they just need to put the result of their judging in

#

thats my guess

#

i got an A-tier so i dont really care either way if i didnt win its a good showing

regal palm
#

Seems like a filter was applied and wasn't taken off

oh wait nah

(did not even try to participate)

#

poor guy

pastel fog
#

oh, it's true, there are finters on

feral surge
#

I'm just kinda curious since seams like this was accessible to a lot more people in the server than the spriting events and I know those got a lot of entries

rapid knot
#

55 entries

pastel fog
#

@rapid knot is it intentional or we should navigate the filters by ourselves? I didn't even realise they were on until Tower mentioned it

rapid knot
#

Navigate the filters as you wish

#

I put them there so you can use them as needed

pastel fog
#

just saying, maybe mention this in the announcements post so people who don't know much about excel aren't confused?

rapid knot
#

Is there a filter already on by default or something?

pastel fog
#

yes

random girder
#

oh lol i got an a tier,b tier and a c tier

placid briar
#

Woo, 1 A but 2 Bs

rapid knot
#

I will see if I can replace the announcement link with a version that doesn't have a filter on

pastel fog
#

when I opened the sheet, it only showed me A-tiers, one C-tier, and the winner Thonking and when I changed the filter, it showed me all entries

little cypress
random girder
#

my A tier doesnt even have a comment lol

rapid knot
#

We only put comments on entries that we felt needed one

#

Not having a comment is typically a good thing

little cypress
#

I tried to only put comments when there was something that needed fixing or would have been a higher tier with an edit

rapid knot
#

Hopefully the new link shouldn't have a filter applied

#

It seems to work for me

POKENAME shells support a serene coastline. The gentle sounds of the waves keep POKENAME fast asleep most days.

# sly shuttle Thanks for explaining

(it's easier to use existing examples, like Slowpoke tails. Slowpoke is describing which tails. This works, but in a Dex entry it's tricky because you want the entry to be about the Pokémon, not just a single part of it. It can work, but the rest of the entry needs to expound on the Pokémon itself. It's subtle but important for the type of entries you'd expect in a Pokédex)

Very thankful to have been given 3 A-tiers. Drafting Pokedex entries was more fun than I thought it would be. I greatly appreciate all of the work done by the judges in going through all of the entries and providing feedback! I will have to find a time to incorporate the responses I received and submit the entries to the general dex form.

"POKENAME has been collecting heavy stones to grow the pile on its back since it was a baby Geosaur. It uses sunlight to nourish the strong vines it produces, which allow POKENAME to carry such an immense weight. "

"The comma should not be there. It should be [allows], not [allow]."

the vines allow, not the vines allows

confused how not putting an accented e in pokemon justifies c tier when theres a tiers that have long feedback about the grammar being weird, both my other entries didnt have any other feedback besides the e being wrong

acoustic saddle
little cypress
# wide flower confused how not putting an accented e in pokemon justifies c tier when theres a...

C tier is for incorrect grammar, spelling, and/or required punctuation. A comma that isn't necessarily required (Oxford commas, as an example) wouldn't get a C. However, misspelling Pokémon is so common and significant that we have an entire higlight on the submission spreadsheet that specifically checks for exactly that, no capital P and/or no accent on the E in Pokémon. Had Pokémon been correct, it likely would've been an A-tier, as the comma wasn't an actual punctuation mistake, simply something that might be a recommendation depending on the person

little cypress
little cypress
# wide flower "POKENAME has been collecting heavy stones to grow the pile on its back since it...

I believe the feedback on the verb agreement (my guess) is due to the comma and transition, since it is separating it into another clause. Without the comma, with correct grammar, it would be: [This Pokémon uses sunlight to nourish strong vines which allow it to carry such an immense weight.]
This one is much less obvious, but by making the second clause entirely separated, [which] is referring to the act of taking sunlight to nourish vines. The act itself is a singular event, so it would be [allows] in order to agree.

little cypress
# wide flower love that for me

you should, those are very easy things to correct and incorporate in future writings. Baseline competence in composition and English are both much more challenging, so you clearly have talent.
Don't hesitate to post any entries that you're making in the #dex-entries-submissions for feedback, from other participants as well as Unowns (myself included). Punctuation and incorrect formatting of the word Pokémon would both be caught quickly and early on, and I'm sure you'd get complements on your prose.

like what u will change for those dex entries

little cypress
# acoustic saddle like what u will change for those dex entries

quite a lot (but not all) of the comments on the tiering were me, but any changes I'd make would need discussing with the original author, as I want to ensure they maintain their meanings and voice. I can always make recommendations, but with over 150, that's a lot of potential changes blurry_ohyes

but there weren't any entries that I thought were simply bad, every entry had good concepts and effort put into them

the word [congealing] is actually excellent, the issue was that only liquids can congeal (usually blood but other things can also, like pudding. Blood pudding, anyone?), so it didn't make sense in the context of the entry. Chlorophyll is a solid. If it had been chlorophyll in other liquids that would've been a stretch but acceptable.
The entry was still A-tier, so it was still a great entry.

jaunty estuary
little cypress
merry mica

yes

#

usually ur only allowed to submit sprites for fusions that havent been done yet for lc

#

at least that was one of the rules when i entered a lc

little cypress

otherwise the potential roster would rival (possibly even exceed) Team Encounter

👀

merry mica

yuh

trapinch bulbasaur and chinchou are also close to being removed from the lc list

merry mica

little cypress
# slim oar I appreciate the feedback. I believe chlorophyll can be both liquid and solid (a...

naturally occurring chlorophyll is a solid that exists only in photosynthetic chloroplasts, usually found in plants but also in algae, phytoplankton, and other organisms that photosynthesize. I believe humans were able to create a synthetic version that is akin to plasma, but the compound from plants would purely be a solid.
Since the Dex entries are (typically) written by scientists, there are specific formats and details that are weighted more heavily. (There was another entry that incorrectly classified Arbok not as a true cobra and thus used the incorrect reference to its hood, and that was also a ding on an otherwise good entry.)
I do think that change would make it excellent, the point was made in the original, it was just technical details. You did quite well!

Well, little cup is about making fusions, so it feels weird that you say that

south meteor

Oh, I didn't get what being out of LC meant.

subtle moss

or maybe just all fusions in general.

merry mica

typically little cup doesnt allow entries of already existing fusions

south meteor

I thought it had something to do with completion.

merry mica

so those are the only ones that would be eligible for lc

You can only name mons from the original ballot, as far as I'm aware (I could be wrong, but definitely no legendaries/mythicals/starters)
