event-general

[cedar quest]

When I get there.

[merry mica]

you should allow premade stuff

[rapid knot]

||-# that was me, shhh||

[slow gyro]

Animation contest when?

That reminds me

@tall moss LC results when?

[rich hemlock]

The judges got into an argument about that, actually

[icy jasper]

april fools cont-

[topaz quest]

Yeah I saw that in the comments^^

[rich hemlock]

Ah i see. I didn't check the comments directly but I knew it extended outside of it too lol

I sure hope they count because I've got a recent one I'm proud of but 😤

[urban siren]

this will be a strong opponent

a lot of my new mon concepts are stuck at "doodles during lessons" cuz i may regret doing them before the contest if they are good enough

[rich hemlock]

I was too impatient to do that

[whole arrow]

The sun is more of an element of the sky or daytime in general, but in relation to the beach usually reflections or sunglasses or tanning etc would morph the idea of the sun to the idea of the beach

[slender thunder]

I don't think I left a comment on that one but I do know that the smogon sprite also shaded it like that

If I considered something an issue on a sprite but the official or smogon sprite does it too I will not judge them too harshly on it

but the shovel shading kinda makes sense if the shovel is a curved

I was one of the people to say "swirlix" on the sunny castform i think tho

[zenith jackal]

just so that the Judges know this the dithering on the folder is recreated from the actual folder image from back in the day thats why the dittering is like that but its fair about the lack of pokemon its just that i could not really add something to it

i personaly am not that good with working with a big canvas so i tried something simple

[subtle moss]

Could add some porygon imagery

[zenith jackal]

i guess

but i wanted to keep the old windows pc look

like its a pc your storing your pokemon in

but i did add 2 refrences to pokemon

the pokeball icon at the top and the name under it

[deep birch]

I think its rad

I can understand the hesitation to allow it as a mon though

But the Pokémon pc screen in the old windows style is a super fun concept I think

[zenith jackal]

yea thanks

btw how do these work will they all get added to the game or do you need to send them separately after fixing these things because i love to see this in game

[subtle moss]

I believe the ones posted to the contest would automatically get added? Maybe?

I mean, if they were deemed acceptable

but don't take my word for it.

[zenith jackal]

i dont see if my one is deemed that

like i posted 2 one that bad and one with a cool concept

ther both kinda at the bottom

i am not really complaining about the sinnoh one because i know its bad so i guess it deserved the second lowest rating

[jagged hinge]

The PC one def would be added

[zenith jackal]

even if its ranked 41 out of 46

atleast its not the one ranked 45

after thinking about that one it was fastly made as just something extra

[rapid knot]

I mean, it looks like the one below your sinnoh one is the discord box, which frog liked enough to use in his video for his announcement about fusing team emerald and team ruby

I wouldn't say that any of those there are bad

Most likely what it is is that those ones are good, and the ones above them are amazing

[edgy skiff]

That was the point
@cedar quest who gave these comments they missed that point

'cause that's why he's got the parenthesis lookin' lines around his eyes and he's at an angle, he's doing his best to balance

And he terrified he gonna fall

[signal nexus]

Make him even more precarious!

[idle forge]

Perfectly unbalanced, as all things should be

I may not have one, but I did something much greater

[rapid knot]

||@tribal pagoda, very sorry about the ghost ping; I had meant to ping mistycloud instead of you||

[idle forge]

Btw, does anyone know if the pc backgrounds still need to be posted somewhere or will they just make it in game because they were in the contest

[potent sorrel]

I need to rework mine b4 it gets in anyhow

Add more things to it and all that

[idle forge]

I have a one pixel change to make that I just noticed

Wait actually no, it’s fine

I did that intentionally

[jagged hinge]

I think they all got added this update! The patch notes mention 42 new boxes

[idle forge]

Okay, sweet

Thanks

[rapid knot]

Will people be able to make and submit more new boxes?

[cedar quest]

Frog did ask me for the drives for both PC and Trainer Card in the beginning of Sept, so I'd say probably?

-# round 2 babyyyy let's see if we get more support this time

[idle forge]

Those snortos don’t seem very insomnia ridden to me

[rigid abyss]

Its what me and galaxy can finally be after we win

[heavy escarp]

they took a melatonin

[rigid abyss]

Only after we find the rare feather, then we can afford melatonin

[potent sorrel]

Maybe the melatonin will be Orange flavor

After all, the ruins might put you in a Citrus mood

[zenith jackal]

i use melatonin medicin because where i from its cheaper than in america

let me guess there its like 1000$ in America while here in Europe its like 7 €

[zenith jackal]

Oh thats for 3mg

I was calculating for 0,3 mg so that means its more expensive here thats strange

[jade chasm]

yeah people dont need it to live so its not expensive

[near horizon]

No Spritober ? :(

[slate otter]

Nup Zan asked for it so now it's not happening

[cyan gull]

We have to cancel it every other year to keep you guys on your toes

[slate otter]

You guys aren't allowed to have too much fun

[cyan gull]

I am

[potent sorrel]

Splice and Dice has begun!
Come looksies and see the fun and chaos in store for yall

[potent sorrel]

#1222376526805209201 message
Can you pin this btw, you ghosted me last time

[near horizon]

kinda looks like #1329228869282304142 x)

[cyan gull]

not intentionally

[potent sorrel]

See, it technically is
But instead of solving mysteries and what not you play D&D

And I think thats way cooler

[near horizon]

so a copycat of #1378122618196066414 ?

[potent sorrel]

Hey no...

That one is Showdown

Besides, this is a team based event

[tidal panther]

when did Term become Shark Tank of spriter events

[near horizon]

[signal nexus]

#gameplay-help

[acoustic saddle]

no spritober? :v

[proven nova]

Maybe it’ll be announced on the 7th or smth

[fallen light]

i think it's only every other year, no?

[proven nova]

Maybe we’ll get a Rush instead

[astral niche]

Usually we get to submit prompts before the event starts

[hazy tapir]

Question: has anyone seen this loading screen when starting the game yet?
It’s supposed to be in the pool of the ones it cycles through but every time I’ve loaded them game I just get the same 4 every time, and mine (this one) isn’t one of them
Asking here since I feel like ever since this event was done and the results got added to the game it’s been bugged and only the same 4 get cycled through and not the rest that were chosen. Which sucks because I put a lot of effort into this and was super happy to know it’d be used only for it to never show up for anyone as far as I’m aware

(Also asking in general got me one answer and then I just got ignored lol)

[ancient palm]

I distinctly remember getting it once when i booted the game up on android

[jade chasm]

i only ever get the politoed one >_>

[rapid knot]

I think only the top-placing submissions were added to the game

Oh, yeah, it is in the contest gallery

I only play PIF on my laptop, and I have never seen the purple salamence, the fusion tanks, or the smeargle wall ones

Maybe you can ask someone else who plays PIF a different way to see if they get different ones

[ancient palm]

i have not seen chroma’s loading screen yet

have seen the rest though

[hazy tapir]

When it was first released I opened the game over and over like 100 times and have only ever seen the Lugia and Ho-oh, the porygon, the politoad and the corkboard
And upon just randomly playing every now and then, I’ve still only ever gotten those four. I also seem to get Ho-oh and Lugia the most often

[ancient palm]

(i think )

[mighty stump]

Maybe the loading screen you get is affected by a random seed and people are getting ones that keep skipping over a loading screen?

That's just a guess though

[cloud solstice]

it wasn't in the PIF files last time I checked, same with my entry
I have a suspicion they might be kept for pif hoenn since they both feature gen 3 pkm?

yep if you go to Graphics\Titles\loading_screens there's only these 4

[ancient palm]

wtf did i mandela myself into thinking otherwise

i explicitly remember seeing the testing tube loading screen the others maybe i made up but definitely not the testing tubes

[cloud solstice]

maybe you added it manually?

[hazy tapir]

That’s… kinda annoying and I’m quite upset about that. They announced it would be used in game and I was super excited only to now find it’s not being used??

I guess they might use it in PIF Hoenn but that feels ages away…

They could’ve been way more transparent about that- like not lead us on and tell us they’d be used then just not use them??

I feel like I want to contact someone about that about idk who

I honestly feel a bit slighted by that

[rapid knot]

I don't think it was intended to be deceptive

If they're not in the game files, the most likely thing that happened would be that frog put the top placers in the game, told pory, 'hey, I put the other ones in the game too' meaning the other podium placers, but pory thought it meant all others

A miscommunication

[naive viper]

It very well could’ve just been an honest mistake. I did ask frog about it, so we’ll see what he says about it. Could’ve been a mistake or a miscommunication but I can assure you that it wasn’t anything malicious

[hazy tapir]

Ok. Sorry I didnt mean to come off as aggressive, but I’m sure you can understand my frustration there

[naive viper]

100%, I understand. We’ll get it sorted

[waxen echo]

I understand you are frustrated, and I think this is a genuine mistake that will get fixed, believe me

Also hi all

[ancient palm]

who is up eventing their general

[tidal panther]

Major General E. Vent

[echo peak]

average Ace Attorney character name lol

[mystic mauve]

vent looking pretty sus ..

[hushed stream]

if anyone is looking for some themed challenges for october.... we're doing mudtober over at #1412185104843018401 and if you complete all 8 you can earn a limited edition barbadge

[cloud solstice]

Frog answered, the entries that were announced to be kept are split between the Kanto and Hoenn games, so the missing one will be used for pif hoenn

[hazy tapir]

I wish we had actually been told that rather than being left in the dark

[cyan gull]

I believe he did mention them being split at some point, but I don't blame you for being frustrated tbh

That being said, I think it being exclusive to Hoenn is cooler

[hazy tapir]

I dont recall ever seeing that and I never got directly told

[cyan gull]

I doubt you were directly told

[hazy tapir]

Last I remember was the announcement saying itd be used with all the others

[cyan gull]

Ah, fair enough

Yeah, your frustration is not misplaced

At least you know now

[hazy tapir]

Yeah

Im still kinda annoyed about it and it not having been made clear but yeah

[cyan gull]

Which is understandable

[pastel fog]

@rapid knot is there no rush discussion thread this time?

[rapid knot]

There is going to be

But I don't have permissions to make it

It'll be around soon

[pastel fog]

ah great!

damn, 14 days for two mons...

a rush rush

[dusk scroll]

So Dusknoir is excluded?

[wanton pumice]

Having trouble joining the group

[slow gyro]

I need help claiming something in the sheet

[astral niche]

oh nice sprite rush

I thought we would get spritober

[slow gyro]

I want to claim Dusclops/Kommo-O

I’ll suffer so non of you will

[tidal panther]

do duskull/kommo-o too

[slow gyro]

Wasn’t it already done?

[tidal panther]

not that i can tell

[slow gyro]

Then maybe

I’ve never done a Duskull before I think

Not a Duskull head at least

[wanton pumice]

I call dibs on Dusclops/Flareon

[cloud solstice]

#1423724176497442857

[icy jasper]

no dusknoir in this rush

[echo peak]

I'm tempted to do this, but I don't really understand it. I claim a Pokémon and make a Halloween fusion?

Oh I get it

A Duskull or Dusclops fusion

I can't claim anything. Must be because I'm on my phone

[rapid knot]

Everybody is challenged to work together to make sure that every Duskull/ and Dusclops/ fusion has a sprite before 14 days are up

[fickle iron]

can anyone claim? I cant join the group for some reason

[echo peak]

Join the group and then in the Sheets page hit the down arrow to claim aside of "Unclaimed"

[cloud solstice]

strange, it should be fixed

are you logged in?

[fickle iron]

I can't join the group. I've tried all four accounts i have

[cloud solstice]

this group? #1423724176497442857 message

[fickle iron]

ah yep i was just bad. THANK YOU

[cloud solstice]

I think the link used in #event-announcements wasn't updated

I think it just got updated now

[rapid knot]

It did

[cedar quest]

9h30m stream

[mighty stump]

When are you going to do a subathon

[icy jasper]

[formal river]

[mighty stump]

Just started yeah

[sly shuttle]

Started a few hours ago
2 weeks total
Just Duskull and dusclops heads

[formal river]

[minor garnet]

For all 0 people interested in rivalry rumble deadline is next week sunday if I remember to

#1222376526805209201 message

[signal nexus]

Rip my poor tablet else i’d join in

[proven nova]

Reranked my top 25 favourite Pokemon

[gaunt lava]

I didnt see Empoleon Piplup didnt even get top 25?

[proven nova]

Piplup was a close contender. It'd probably at least end up in the top 50

[oblique heath]

no cradily huh

[merry mica]

no luxio huh

[tame egret]

No Mister Gill huh

[long basin]

No mega swampert huh

[mystic mauve]

no electrike huh

[potent sorrel]

Damn no Golduck

[placid briar]

top 24 for me

[jagged hinge]

That’s an interesting list

[rapid knot]

Some awesome choices

[quartz pebble]

Stakataka is elite ball knowledge

And kamo-oh is the best pseudo

[lament matrix]

https://tenor.com/view/durant-pokemon-gif-9807792

[long basin]

https://tenor.com/view/purugly-pokemon-anime-kawaii-cute-gif-25263344

[oblique heath]

my top idk what number, i love too many mons (green sprited, yellow have a concept ready, blue non-if)

[jagged hinge]

Darn so much blue

[quartz pebble]

Why's bramblin half and half?

If this leaked next mon in IF

[oblique heath]

i did spritethem tho it's non-if too

[oblique heath]

i hope so

[quartz pebble]

Please get those bastiodon sprites done though

[cyan gull]

I guess I could redo my fav list

[rigid abyss]

I just know mine will be extremely skewed by "fuk that's way too complicated to even sprite" while looking at a non-if mon klink line got hammered down cuz of my spriting experience

[whole arrow]

since you are a based Staka enjoyer

[cerulean prawn]

Oooh is that druddigon too... hell yeah that design rules

A lot of my faves are in the game already thankfully, but no sawsbuck is a crime

That'd be my number one pick for sure

All the cool seasonal fusions... ❤️

[gaunt lava]

Araquanid will get its day... eventually

[minor garnet]

lemme do this one

dont feel like doing the rest

[minor garnet]

added the last 4

[placid briar]

that's cool

stakataka is such a funky guy, i can't help but love him

[placid briar]

based zolt enjoyer

[whole arrow]

Thanks!

[cerulean prawn]

I love the pup!! It's honestly one of the cutest pokemon

[quartz pebble]

I am a fan of the whole line, it doesn't have a bad form honestly

[slender thunder]

were people posting their favorites

not in a particular order

[rapid knot]

I want to redo my favorites...
But it takes so long and I get sucked into it

I should be productive

Chi-Yu spotted! You have such goated favorites, Myst

[potent sorrel]

Got my top 20

[south meteor]

I'm stuck and can't eliminate past 43 favorites. 😭

[jade chasm]

after frigibax everything is muddled

[placid briar]

watchog lets go!!!!

[oblique heath]

funny how no one yet has put pikachu in their list

[fading lodge]

I have a list and I made pikachus. Does that count?

[cyan gull]

I'll put the answer sheet here in a sec

[urban siren]

cute mon collection

[mighty stump]

I wanted to do this particular tier list but I did not have the patience at all sjzujsjssk

I didn't even get one fella in the favorites list

Just know Spheal would be there

[cyan gull]

[tired jay]

I probably have a very similar favorites list ngl

[cyan gull]

I'll finish mine tomorrow

[kindred valley]

🤝 mostly, re: cute
(idk if this is actually my top 24, but it's a top 24 and i think that's as much as i can ask for)

~~also, how did we go from talking events to talking favorite mons? ~~

[minor garnet]

We have a lot (3) og the dame pokemon

[kindred valley]

was it the wooper-likes?
(i have not scrolled up)

[south meteor]

Okie, this be it~ Mix of legends, majesty, cute, and pink.

[minor garnet]

Uh well wooper, snom and I thought I had sirfetch'd aswell but no

[minor garnet]

Drampa is goated

[oblique heath]

a bunch of cute, elegant women, grandpa, knight and death

[urban siren]

they spammed all the channels

[jagged hinge]

I wonder if that bot was meant to do something and it just failed

[dreamy loom]

bro thought he did something

[cyan gull]

fucked up evil scenario

[quartz pebble]

It's gotta be cubone for me

[cyan gull]

I think the worst thing about this tool is that it uses the models

and a lot of my favs look like sun-dried turds in their images

[dreamy loom]

Yeah

[cyan gull]

objectively correct btw

I'm surprised Meganium is so high up tbh

I accidentally dragged Charjabug when taking the screenshot

[elder marlin]

Cosmoem so high up wow

[cyan gull]

it was almost 1st

but that wouldn't look good for the brand

[elder marlin]

Pory’s favorite Pokémon almost wasn’t Pory

[cyan gull]

honestly what make him lose is the fact that he's tiny in battle

arguably the worst thing about 3D models, the pokemon have very wild size ranges

it's good and bad

[elder marlin]

Tynamo basically becomes an atom in 3D

[cedar quest]

what's the site u do this on

[cyan gull]

https://www.dragonflycave.com/favorite.html

[quartz pebble]

Here's the top 10, some close runners up were ferrothorn, golurk and galvantula

I think my fav type is steel can't lie, there are so many great pokemon with that type

[tired jay]

I feel like it was refusing to show some like tapi fini

[quartz pebble]

I love all the tapus can't lie

[heavy escarp]

🍎

[tired jay]

If fini showed up would probably be above diancie ngl

[quartz pebble]

I'm gonna hazard that your fav colour is green

[tired jay]

I think it's obvious that my favourite is fairy

[heavy escarp]

Its teal but I guess that's half green so youre half right

[quartz pebble]

Close enough lmao

[quartz pebble]

True

If I went further than 10 I think most of the others would be steel types

[cyan gull]

Stakataka used to be my favorite UB

I suspect it'll come back if it comes to PIF

[cyan gull]

based Ditto

[quartz pebble]

I still think that would be an awesome quest for PIF hoenn

UB outbreaks across the regions to catch them

[little cypress]

Wouldn't matter, it's all a simulation anyway

[wicked perch]

least surprising top 3

[cyan gull]

Trubbish was almost in the top 25

it's 26th

[cyan gull]

Y-you love me?!

[wicked perch]

boo
trubbish number one every time

[cyan gull]

I do enjoy trubbish

[quartz pebble]

Idk I prefer garbodor

It's got an awesome g-max

[wicked perch]

i get where you're coming from but also look at them

[cyan gull]

@wicked perch I am your one and only follower

[sharp mountain]

dewott <3

someone likes middle stage starters i notice. i'm surprised

[quartz pebble]

I can see bayleef honestly, better than meganium in my opinion

[oblique heath]

funny (and sad) how 2/5 of people's here fav mon is non-if

[jade chasm]

qwilfish and binacle 🔥 🔥 🔥

[rapid knot]

Dewott!!

Oh, wow, that actually sent

It's a gif I downloaded from tenor
I haven't been able to get gifs that haven't been uploaded to a hosting service to work on discord when uploaded from my laptop

Maybe the solution is to just put it in a hosting service

[rapid knot]

Or from somewhere
I don't remember where, actually

[cyan gull]

Crocalor is my top starter 💔

[heavy escarp]

heres some more of my (objectively correct) pokemon opinions

[quartz pebble]

Apart from least fav type, steel is awesome

https://tenor.com/view/bastiodon-pokemon-rock-steel-running-gif-26494729

[jagged hinge]

Huh wait what’s wrong with solgaleo shiny?

[heavy escarp]

The pokemon are usually great design wise. Its annoying to battle against especially in earlier gens lol

[heavy escarp]

I do not care for Red 40 cat

[jagged hinge]

I mean but there are some shinies that can be actively bad

[quartz pebble]

True ig, still my fav type though, especially when I'm the one using them

[jagged hinge]

I like the tropius respect tho

[quartz pebble]

Never been a massive fan of them, they're alr but I have no opinion

[idle forge]

Both garbage are good

[idle forge]

Both garbage are good

[quartz pebble]

True, I just think ones better

[idle forge]

Idk, I do prefer Garbodor but it’s mainly for fusions, otherwise both are the same

[quartz pebble]

Fairs

[mighty stump]

Trubbish is cute, I don't like Garbodor that much though

I think Trubbish looks like a weird mutated bunny to me

A really mutated bunny

https://tenor.com/view/trubbish-pokemon-gif-1624844839945341020

Look at them run

So silly

It doesn't FIT

Anyways how does the deep sea rush work i wish to be a part of it

[quartz pebble]

Okay I like red solgaleo they have way too many haters

The shinies I hate are the ones that barely change, at least the uglier ones try

[hushed stream]

I'm late to this but that thing takes so long haha

[fallen light]

bananasaur

and apple

[hushed stream]

it's funny how making sprites and being part of pif has influenced this

i don't think before this year barboach ever would have been second, and whiscash wouldn't have appeared at all but I've grown such a fondness for them

[oblique heath]

tbh i don't even know why i like cradily as much as i do either

[sly shuttle]

My favorite shiny is chesnaught

[jagged hinge]

Wait, why the ogerpon hate

[rapid knot]

You hate Scorbunny?

[quartz pebble]

And sobble I think intelleon is a good starter

It's a cool line

And what did belibolt do to you lmao

[cyan gull]

Your least favorite type is ghost?

[rapid knot]

Here are my controversial opinions

[cyan gull]

You don't like the poop bug?

[rapid knot]

I don't like the unshaved pink-faced poop bug

[quartz pebble]

Nothing wrong with pink faced poop bug

My last fave is 𝕓𝕦𝕣𝕞𝕪, disgusting creature

[cyan gull]

How does it feel, being wrong all the time?

[quartz pebble]

Pretty right

[quartz pebble]

Sickening

[rapid knot]

It's like that weird stuffie that Pip has

[rapid knot]

@ancient palm, don't you have a blue stuffed animal with a face like this or something?

[cyan gull]

I'm working on mine

[quartz pebble]

I'm usually on phone I prob won't do one lmao

Fav type is steel and fav Mon is bastiodon

[oblique heath]

it looks like an armless crystal gem pear with a big ass mask whose silhouette is what a 5 yo draws as girly hair

[oblique heath]

i was like "did i miss a spot!? (though u were joking bout the least fav missing and ghosts are invisibile)" then i checked the image and nothing was missing after that i got it

[quartz pebble]

What did trumbeak do to deserve red marke they're my fav regional bird line

[rapid knot]

I don't like Trumbeak or Kubfu either
They're not my least favorite, but I still don't like them

[cyan gull]

I should've known you have a palate for dookie

[quartz pebble]

Steel is best type though well done

[quartz pebble]

I could say the same about you my friend, porygon always felt kinda boring to me

[rapid knot]

Are you saying best type is steel because that's a steel beam or fighting because that's Gurdurr's beam?

[quartz pebble]

I like porygon z, the others 2 are meh

[cyan gull]

steel

I removed all the muscle

[quartz pebble]

This we can agree on, steel is based

[cyan gull]

all that's left is the girder

[rapid knot]

Yeah but I just think it's a bit meh

[quartz pebble]

Porygon z is cool with the whole glitched code thing

It's the worst form as well, pink doesn't even make sense being trash

What about that means trash cloak?

[cyan gull]

I used to buy pink trash bags cuz they're scented

[tidal panther]

insulation

[quartz pebble]

I've never seen them, might be a regional thing

[quartz pebble]

I'm imagining fibreglass

[quartz pebble]

Just call it insulation cloak

Another point of stupidity added to 𝕓𝕦𝕣𝕞𝕚𝕖𝕤 𝕔𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕖𝕔𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟

[fallen light]

eiscue is peak fr

[tulip tusk]

doesnt do its concept justice, awful silhouette, very strange palette. let down of a fun idea

[quartz pebble]

Fair enough, I like them though they're a goofy frog

[tulip tusk]

i just dont like the galar starters much, their base designs are fine but aside from rillaboom, the other two really kinda feel too humanoid

[urban siren]

sorry for being a newer pokemon fan

[quartz pebble]

My first games were gen 7 dw about it lmao

Only think I can't agree with is ground type slander

[urban siren]

my first official main game is gen 8

[quartz pebble]

Idk gen 8 was mixed for me

Real easy and pretty weird story but the areas and mons were overall great

[urban siren]

i chose that cuz i don't really have a fav ground type mon

[quartz pebble]

Fair enough, at least you didn't say your least fav type was steel

[proud brook]

Unite player located

drone strike on standby

[rapid knot]

People hate pidove?

People hate Paras because of PLA, but why do people hate Pidove?

[tired jay]

its just a bird

personally I'm neutral to it, but it is just a bird

[urban siren]

I know some pidove haters

[minor garnet]

I hate fun

And fun just so happened to be pidove

[potent sorrel]

See I find the shiny Golduck slander insane

Well, the 3D Model I get

Sprite Form it's peak

[spiral harbor]

One of my first shinies was Psyduck and then I evolved it hoping for something cool and.... eh... normal golduck with a red nose

[potent sorrel]

Daz fair, I just think the shiny isn't that bad, not my go too, but like alright

[spiral harbor]

Yeah honestly I was gonna put garchomp (u can't even tell T_T) but then i remembered Golduck/s Emotional Damage

[cyan gull]

my condolences

[jade chasm]

ok yay

[kindred valley]

another one!
the water type + hoenn favorites were not planned XD

^ last part of that chart:

[kindred valley]

people hate my boi wingull?

[cyan gull]

messed up

I love Wingull

[mighty stump]

Wingull is really cute

https://tenor.com/view/wingull-pelipper-wawawawawa-gif-16218624209455717035

[wicked perch]

wingull's typing sucks but its not their fault they are just a little guy and i love them

[mighty stump]

Wait everyone loves Salazzle? I have no idea what the popular pokemon are do I ajnfuijanifiafioeaf

I know it had a lot of love for Team Ruby but I thought otherwise it wasn't particularly popular

[cyan gull]

If Ruby won, chances are it'd've won

[kindred valley]

yeah idk about "universally popular" but it certainly has fans from what i've seen

[wicked perch]

more silly little charts 🥰

[mighty stump]

The monkeys are in trouble akjfnuioaunajfnole

[wicked perch]

they deserve it for their crimes

[rigid abyss]

found it hard to choose fav and least fav mon lol

[gaunt lava]

We have the exact same for types lmao

[rigid abyss]

ayeee i was considering the latis for least fav mega and enarmorous for least fav legend too lol

[gaunt lava]

There really aren't any megas I hate, but I hate how the Lati twins are the same

[rigid abyss]

i dont like abamosnow cuz its so cluttered

and like. its just abomosnow x2

[gaunt lava]

Its a very square sprite drawing, but it looks great in-game imo. The different pose helps a lot

[slender thunder]

[wicked perch]

necrozma 🤝

[tame egret]

People don’t hate cradily bro 😭 I’ve seen like one person dislike it in my entire time here

[mighty stump]

Are we thinking of the same person, because I know Duke Anorith wants to fight Cradily

So that my chart is factual, do people hate cherubi or vanillite?

[elder marlin]

I hate vanillite line because it did nothing in my Shield playthrough team

Wobbuffet killed more dragon types than it against Leon

[mighty stump]

Funny enough I did infact use Vanilluxe in Pokemon Shield

[elder marlin]

Literally same

It did nothing it barely got kills and outputted little for the team

[mighty stump]

I have no idea if mine pulled its weight or not, I kept using the ice cream in dynamax raids because I thought seeing a giant ice cream was funny, and I had so much experience candy that I fed all to my Lanturn named Chubbs who was like level 90 something when I got to the elite four and Chubbs dynamaxed and killed everyone

[elder marlin]

It also died instantly against Leon’s Haxorus when I got to him

[cyan gull]

I dislike Azurill mildly because the only kill one of mine got in a nuzlocke was a shiny I was trying to catch with the highest roll + crit

[mighty stump]

Damn...

[elder marlin]

Wobbuffet my goat had to kill both Haxorus and Dragapult for it (it did so easily)

[mighty stump]

I just killed everyone with an overfed fish

I don't think anyone else on the team got to do anything anfuianuifjanjfi

[real mantle]

[carmine falcon]

chat am I peak?

[merry mica]

ur peam

[ancient palm]

that’s what shiny tranquil looks like???

[hushed stream]

I don't care about megas or fossils so i replaced those prompts

[cyan gull]

That's messed up

I've been seeing so much funny rock and bug slander

[hushed stream]

you're a conkeldurr fan?

oh he's not rock type

idk what's messed up then

[quartz pebble]

Who hates wugtrio

[hushed stream]

i don't think "everyone" hates it but i have seen wugtrio hate

[quartz pebble]

Also conkeldur isn't that bad

I don't like it but I appreciate it's existence

[hushed stream]

he's my least favorite

[quartz pebble]

Fair enough

[hushed stream]

there's not one i dislike more

but i appreciate he still has redeeming qualities

[quartz pebble]

Yeah I appreciate it's a different kind of fighting type, it's not just big guy with big arms

Its got the rocks

[merry mica]

am i peam

[oblique heath]

so u don't care bout fossils uh

[hushed stream]

sorry I feel neutrally about all of them

they're all pretty much equally cool

[quartz pebble]

That is acceptable bastiodon is the clear best among them but I love all the fossils

[jagged hinge]

Why is your first starter Oshawott or scorbunny?

[carmine falcon]

I forgor which one

I did play black 2 once and picked oshawott and it might've been my first pokemon game

or it might've been shield

[jagged hinge]

That’s so funny

[carmine falcon]

where I picked scorbunny

sword**

[carmine falcon]

I hate it with passion

it's not even

green

it's just puke

[jade chasm]

i shouldve put shiny tranquil up, its so shit its forgettable..
goes from cool grey -> mantis green??? -> brown grey

[cedar quest]

Alright, so I'll say this here since it was something I really wanted to do but didn't have the time

We'll be revealing more contest results soon, and for Food Fight, the plan even before Fusion Day was to take the top 16 from judging, throw 'em into a seeded bracket, and have 'em fight there way up the ladder in polls

y'know "First the Food, then the Fight"

But.... I do not have the time for that right now, and I'd rather.... not delay the results more, especially since there's more after these 2 still

Still, I like to be transparent w/ y'all and give you insight on what happens with events and things BTS

[quartz pebble]

Sounds fair

[gaunt lava]

How is there a third person for dark being favourite and fighting least favourite?

[elder marlin]

What do you mean. It shows their least favorite is clearly Mega Sceptile’s tail

[rigid abyss]

Shows the true human nature of dirty tactics and evil on top

@rapid knot Do I get credit for helping if I make a Dusclops head within the 5 day window?

[rapid knot]

I don't know what you mean by 'credit for helping'
But yes! Let's all sprite Dusclops heads these next five days

[fading lodge]

Well, the last major sprite rush people who participated got an icon. I just wanted to know if helping counted as... helping.

[rapid knot]

I don't know why helping wouldn't count as helping

[fading lodge]

idk, i'm not good at logics.

[astral niche]

I can’t wait to see how high I will rank for food contest maybe I can get into the middle of rankings this time

[echo peak]

I'm curious to see where my Raticate/Garbodor is ranked

even if it is super low

[signal nexus]

still no tablet but i tried to fill out the meme anyway
i am. slightly limited by my lack of a black colored pencil

leaving off Gen 8 and 9 because i'm not that familiar with 'em
except for gholdengo, i guess
was also considering cubchoo, because ew snot

[slow gyro]

Im here to request your help finishing the rush
We only have Duskul/Zekrom and Dusclops/Ilumise unclaimed, but it seems like we all have our hands full

So any help is welcome

[jade chasm]

ill do zekrom if it isnt claimed now ig

who is this

[jade chasm]

i found them

[signal nexus]

my new tablet might be arriving tomorrow
might

[little cypress]

Hating Gholdengo is a bizarrely common hot take
I personally adore Pimp Gumby

https://tenor.com/view/gumby-scrubbing-looking-sharp-aesthetic-gif-9094289

[hushed stream]

it looks like the string cheese man

[signal nexus]

🤔 i think my dislike comes from the ever-common "it doesn't really look like a pokemon" (whatever that means ) combined with a friend of mine complaining about Good as Gold skewing the competitive meta. though the "it doesn't look like a pokemon" is also an opinion i had about eiscue and, at one time, chespin
funny thing, i actually found myself liking the lati@s mega designs when i made myself draw them, so maybe i don't completely dislike gholdengo either
i don't know if there's any pokemon i truly dislike, tbh. some just need to grow on me, perhaps 🤔
because the idea behind gholdengo's neat - he's got that inflatable tube man shape because he's made of stacks of gold coins
also he reminds me uncomfortably of the Apple Jacks Cinnamon mascot

[signal nexus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GeSWu7-UE0

[signal nexus]

for some reason, my mind went to these guys first:

or a macaroni mascot

it looks like it's trying to sell me something
like a mascot from the '90s

maybe it's something i'd like better if i saw it in-game

[tidal panther]

i think him being the gold trophy for being the 1000th pokemon is cool

[signal nexus]

i've been musing on ways to make me like it slightly more
like, if it were drawn with some coins detached? or more lines? something more like stakataka or garganacl?

maybe give it Spamton's personality to make me like it

[little cypress]

I rip people apart when they try to claim something "breaks the meta" because Megas (especially Rayquaza) and Magic Bounce and Magic Guard and Adaptability and a whole bunch of other examples that also "broke the meta" which are now basically just accepted (except Mega Ray), so Good as Gold isn't some new, novel insanity. It's really only as good as it is because of the typing of Gholdengo and its stellar stats, on a lot of other subpar Pokémon it would just be mid.

I truly and literally hate Elgyem and Beheeyem. I've never seen them get nearly enough hate and they don't look ANYTHING like Pokémon, they're awful.

[little cypress]

I think if they made it extend its fingers or move its hair by expanding the "coins" slightly (making it obvious they're coins) during its animation, it would help. I don't think people realize it's literally made of the 1000 Gimmighoul coins, so it really is solid gold

[signal nexus]

i think they only brought up Good as Gold because I like inflicting statuses to deal with annoying opponents
🤔 elgyem and beheeyem look like pokemon to me, but then again, my first game was Black. their colors schemes are just kinda garish?

maybe garish is the wrong word. muddy?
though muddy is kinda the opposite of garish...

[wicked perch]

elgyem and beheeyem are pokemon to me in the same way registeel or beldum or metagross are pokemon

little geometric technology guys

[little cypress]

They look like a toddler drew a nightmare of alien rocks invading Earth

I've never thought their designs made sense at all

[signal nexus]

they also look like plastic toys to me
i... know there's a thing i'm thinking of, but i can't put my finger on it. there's definitely a kind of toy that looks like that
maybe like a plastic doll you get in a Happy Meal combined with a Simon toy

by "Simon toy" i mean these things:

[hushed stream]

oh uhh like izzy or something?

[signal nexus]

i keep thinking of both of them as eyeless
like, their forehead lines are sensing organs and the others are more weird liights
wait - elgyem has a tail?

[little cypress]

At least these make sense as sentient technology. The Pokémon universe has far more advanced tech so them existing is feasible

[hushed stream]

iz i guess they're called

[signal nexus]

fecker has a tail

beheeyem has a tailcoat, so kind of a tail

[hushed stream]

cute jacket

[signal nexus]

i don't hate them. they're gray aliens mashed up with paranormal investigators and kids' light-up toys a la Close Encounters
which honestly might make them good fusion fodder. i can give them a better color scheme as bodies and play with the "cheap plastic alien toys" aesthetic for heads

i wonder if there's anything i can justify making the head lines the eyes as i keep seeing, though

gholdengo heads would give you 'mons made out of stacks of gold coins
maybe give gholdengo a personality more like sableye and less like a corporate suit told it to ask how its fellow kids are doing

[cedar quest]

Wanna give me a hand w/ Duskull/Zekrom?

[slow gyro]

I think plastic was doing that one

[slow gyro]

Also I have a lot in my hands rn

Im doing Duskull/Salamence and Kommo-O

[cyan gull]

my happy meal had one of those when I was a kid

[cinder stag]

it was alien abduction meal

[jade chasm]

i found out gamr had it claimed first but someone removed it recently

[haughty canyon]

that might?? have been me i was checking names and possibly accidentally shifted something
i scroll sometimes and text MOVES ‼️

[haughty canyon]

oh that too !!!!

didn't click in my mind that it was the same person

[cedar quest]

u never pinged me

[slate otter]

But I did @cedar quest

[jade chasm]

then whos flying the plane?
in any case i can do concept and sprite in the next 22 hours, ~~because i am graduated and unemployed ~~, if gamr doesnt want to or have time to

[cinder stag]

https://tenor.com/view/pokemon-pokémon-gulpin-sewer-overrun-gif-14545172508311496330

honestly it works out better if u do it probably

i wanted to but like

my hand got mauled up

[rapid knot]

What happened

Did your hand get mauled by dogs

That happened to a coworker of mine once

So I don't discount the possibility

[cedar quest]

oh no loose drill bits

[cedar quest]

that was a different time

[signal nexus]

That sounds potentially more horrific 😶

[jade chasm]

jesus

[cedar quest]

on the plus side tho

i'd recovered from worse so therefore

I no diff this

[signal nexus]

Very “It’s not my blood!” level of reassurance

[cyan gull]

Skill issue

I kept all my fingers from when I worked in the trades

Sure, I set my hand like a post with a postsetter and sure, I smushed my toe pretty flat with a huge acetylene tank, but who hasn't lived a little

[quartz pebble]

I'm now imagining pory is stitched together like Frankenstein from all their work injuries

[cyan gull]

Don't be silly, if I lost any parts doing my old job, I wouldn't want them back

[quartz pebble]

Okay now I'm imagining cybernetic pory

[slow gyro]

Ik this is not the same but we can collab on anything you want
Or ask me for a concept you want or smt

I planned a new playthrough using only megas, and at least one of the new per fusion

We can collab in one if you’re interested

||I still owe Paya a collab, now that megas are official I can actually design it ||

[cedar quest]

||Are you down for the New ZA megas? ||

||There is one I'd very much collab for ||

[slow gyro]

Of course

Holdup let me show you my team in case you’re interested in one

ZA megas spoilers

[cedar quest]

This one - we do this one

[slow gyro]

It’s going to be sick

I owe Paya a ||Dragonte/Scolipede|| double mega collab

Both designs would work so good together

[kindred valley]

are we doing new mega fusions now? 👀

[slow gyro]

I always have

[rigid abyss]

Most of the new megas look so goofy

[slow gyro]

I love most of them

There are like 3 I think are mid

Now I want to make a ranking smh

[rigid abyss]

Mega ||froslass|| is soooo ||long lmao||

[slow gyro]

Lmao true

[kindred valley]

true
but *new*

[kindred valley]

|| i think it looks more like a gigantamax than anything lol. take gmax meowth for example||

[rigid abyss]

Lol truee

[rigid abyss]

Anyways mega ||eeleetroks or dragalge|| concept art for me to steal when

[kindred valley]

like the base or as part of the fusion

i think mega || eelektross || has fusion potential, but idk how to make || dragalge || not just a goofier version of its non-mega self

i was considering the megas for swampert and || eelektross || though, they both have those goofy hands

[kindred valley]

the one thing that comes to mind is || dragonite/dragalge || but that's only because they're both so goofy in the same way

[rigid abyss]

||mega eeleetroks|| is reminiscent of that ||blastoise/eeleektros|| that i have yet to do

[slow gyro]

||Mega Victreebell|| is peak, I don’t care if people don’t like it

It’s just so freaking funny

And ||Mega Starmie|| is the best joke since Dundunsparce

[rigid abyss]

||mega Victreebell|| is peak lol i love the guy so much

[slow gyro]

ZA Megas Spoilers
Really top heavy list ngl

https://tiermaker.com/create/leaks-pokmon-legends-z-a-new-mega-evolutions-1613853

oh yea the ||falinks ||one was so cool

this is pure vibes cuz im too poor for the games

How could you have Chainsaw Man in C tho?

https://tenor.com/view/denji-chainsawman-makima-banger-transformation-gif-26751959

[rigid abyss]

he looks like chungus

[slow gyro]

Lmao

Chainsaw Chungus

[kindred valley]

i didn't think about this too hard so i might disagree with it later
but as an american, can't get past mega || scrafty || :'( (also off-white + || scrafty || color scheme is strange to me anyway)

[rigid abyss]

||upsidedown geninja tho 🙃 ||

[kindred valley]

idk bro i just think they could have done more with it
(not sure what though lol)

[slow gyro]

ZA Megas Spoilers
Now the fusion material ranking

[slow gyro]

Okay but counter argument

[kindred valley]

https://tenor.com/view/i-guess-memes-meme-gif-17950413

[slow gyro]

Also that mega is literally my style

I don’t use hoodies

[kindred valley]

like, fashion wise?

[slow gyro]

But aside from that, it’s basically my style

[slow gyro]

Yea

[kindred valley]

isn't hoodie classic to that style though?

[slow gyro]

My style is between that and a rockstar

[rigid abyss]

what dont want to make ||long legs starmie||fusions

[slow gyro]

Yea but my hair is too cool to use a hoodie

[slow gyro]

How do you use it as head tho?

[kindred valley]

dang imagine that

[kindred valley]

|| looong legs ... and a silly run sequence ||

[kindred valley]

i mostly agree, but i'm trying to sprite mega || dragalge || base rn and the || crest wings || are giving me hell

[slow gyro]

Oh yea the base sprite would be hell, but you can simplify it a lot for fusions

Or make it more complicated

[kindred valley]

i imagine it getting used similarly to || dragonite || i guess

dahappycute is right, i should get on the mega || eelektross || train

[slow gyro]

I personally don’t like it that much

Looks like ||An attack jet|| or smt idk

[kindred valley]

i like the || vehicle || callback personally, it's funny
[side-eyes mega lati]

it should be fun to fuse in any case

[mighty stump]

You are the first person I've seen like ||mega feraligator||

[slow gyro]

It’s literally a ||Giant Totodile||

[mighty stump]

True

[slate otter]

Perfect name for it is bidet

[gaunt lava]

Its such a great concept... during that animation.

[south meteor]

||Mega Drampa and Mega Dragalge|| are the GOATs, but I like ||Mega Dragonite|| too. ||Dragons|| all the way~
||Mega Froslass|| reminds me of that one alt fusion.. ||Mega Chandelure and Mega Meganium|| are up there as well.

[gaunt lava]

||I started to really like mega dragonite until I realised the tail was comically large, it just looks off||

[potent sorrel]

||Someone said Mega Feraligatr looked like Skibidi Toilet and now I am no longer allowed to admire anything about it||

[gaunt lava]

I hate that you've put that into my head.

[potent sorrel]

Im sorry

[gaunt lava]

[slow gyro]

Thats a really Skibidi mega

[signal nexus]

Off the topic of spoilers, we getting any event results this weekend?

[tulip tusk]

⚠️ ‼️ SPOILERS is this controversial

[tidal panther]

For better or worse I always give the first guy in your F rank an S because of how goofy it is and I love it

[elder marlin]

I love ||Drampa so I concur||

Wait that’s not F rank

Nevermind I guess I have the reading comprehension of the average Pokemon player

[tulip tusk]

i just wish it was ||anything else, like i like the idea of it being goofy but like..... why not give it a cape and a grander gem while also having long ass legs||

[mighty stump]

||Aw imagine a cape that is space colored and dotted with stars along with the silly legs, that'd be great||

[tulip tusk]

this concept is mid but like its SOMETHING

[jagged hinge]

||Imagine if mega starmie looked like deoxys||

[signal nexus]

Who’s Frank?

[tidal panther]

Its a cool idea but I think they wanted to really lean into the tokusatsu villain angle. Where it truly just looks kinda like a guy in a silly suit. Hell I didnt know Staryus Japanese name was what it was until the other week

[tulip tusk]

yeah but like they could still be interesting with it, yknow?

its also why i dont like dundunsparce. yeah it doubles down but it just takes away a potentially interesting silly design?

[tidal panther]

They've shown they're not averse to multiple megas so maybe they'll add another at some point, who knows.

DLC leak spoilers: ||we're apparently getting more mega formes for some existing mega pokemon too, so we'll see how that goes down if its real||

[mighty stump]

||I'm curious what they do with that, it's hard to see another design that's just as good or has a cool different angle to spin. Like mega absol and lucario seem perfect, Idk what else you would do.||

[tulip tusk]

"||evil fucked up forms||" ig

[tidal panther]

||The latter could absolutely lean into the Egyptian anubis aspect more imo.||

[mighty stump]

||Oh that's fair and maybe have the psychic typing (which always feels bizarre that Lucario never had despite it having so much to do with aura)||

[slow gyro]

Hopefully we finally get ||Mega Charizard Z|| 🙏

Also I hope we get ||Mega Galarian Slowbro, and a mega for both Slowkings||

Mostly cause ||I love them and I love the Poison Type and Psychic/Poison is an underrated typing||

I hate ||The psychic type but the poison type saves it 🙏 ||

[ancient palm]

||did they even need another mega to begin with i mean good on them for making 2 megas That isn’t fucking charizard but idk what are they brewing||

||It could just be raichu where all the new megas are ass and terrible ||

[minor roost]

||forget mega Charizard Z when are we gonna get mega Charizard W 🗣️ 🔥 ||

[idle forge]

||Wait, so some are getting an x or a y ||

[tidal panther]

Supposedly.

[mighty stump]

Here is my probably questionable mega preference lol

[cyan gull]

why don't you guys go to #pokemon-winds-waves for this?

shoo

[mighty stump]

Idk people just decided to put their tier lists here so I followed ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[cyan gull]

[wind lynx]

sorry, its my first time doing a flag, am I wrong or the template given is upscaled x2?
the event post talked about upscaling x8 or x4!

(every pixel is 4 realy pixels, means that its been upscaled x2)

[cyan gull]

the template is upscaled x2, but that's because I took it from the C-gear from gen 5

[wind lynx]

I see, so we shouldnt follow... the template
somewhat counter intuitive but I got it

[cyan gull]

I can make a new template, I grabbed this from the contest I made while sick

[wind lynx]

maybe for next time, I think I may be the only one with the issue

(btw does can we force I mean, add pokemon not from the rush?)

as long as we have 2 from it

[cyan gull]

there, I fixed it

[idle forge]

Is that last one good or bad

[cyan gull]

no

[idle forge]

Why he so crunched

[mighty stump]

Honestly not sure maybe both

[urban siren]

[slow gyro]

What

[fresh tartan]

Like if fusions count towards the two spritober mon rule for the flag contest?

[urban siren]

bad english moment

Attention spriters

Mateys, I am one of the captains of the salty spriters crew, the best team in the RPG event. While this event is already well underway, your help would be needed and appreciated to get me items and valuable points. Head over to the RPG tab in event discussion and scroll through the pinned comments until you see one titled stage 1. There is a link that directs you to the list of mons you need to sprite to get me the rewards I need. Simply send and image of the sprite in the event chat and say the category it meets and what team it's for (Salty Spriters of course). And I'm a generous captain, so a reward is available. For every sprite you make, I will make a dex entry for any Mon in the game. I hope to see many support sprites for salty spriters

🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️

[signal nexus]

can you link to the post? i can't quite tell which one i'm supposed to be looking at

[gaunt lava]

#1378122618196066414 message

[signal nexus]

the support teams? just something that fits and say which team you're on behalf of?
i can do that

so i could put up my mareep/prinplup and say it's for the Electric type and for Salty Spriters, huh 🤔

[rapid knot]

I think there's a specific list of fusions that apply

[signal nexus]

in that case, i don't think they're on the support team spreadsheet and i don't know which ones qualify

[rapid knot]

"There is a link that directs you to the list of mons you need to sprite to get me the rewards I need."

[signal nexus]

right. the support teams list
so anything that qualifies for any of these that Salty Spriters hasn't already completed, yes?

[rapid knot]

I believe so

If you have questions, though, the best place to ask would be the event's thread, as that's where you'll find the most knowledgeable people

[placid briar]

asking outside people

but also getting more people so when the 3rd The RPG hits, we have a ton of guys

(And more work for Kaede

[rigid abyss]

It seems the crew of the Salty Spriters are offering dex entries they say Well here in the crew of Insomniacs, I offer a concept art for every sprite made for our team! Come help us out in #1378122618196066414

[tidal panther]

people will not find out much in that thread we're off topic so much

[quartz pebble]

Us? Off topic? Never

-# ignore those games of Gartic Phone

[potent sorrel]

Those were very much on topic

Smh

[urban siren]

Are you looking for a collab? Or maybe you want to enter the trainer card contest, but don't have the motivation to start it from scratch? Then feel free to join our mega collab project!

Is that mentor-mentee spriter event thing actually happening? Just wondering

[cedar quest]

hubba what now?

[minor garnet]

[slender thunder]

whaht did i tab in on

oh this is like sevveral days old

[minor garnet]

https://tenor.com/view/i-dont-know-gif-18174494

[minor garnet]

Someone should make this into a convenient gif

[tame egret]

A while back people mentioned the idea of a spriting contest where experienced spriters mentor completely new spriters and the sprites they make are judged like a regular contest

[subtle moss]

anyone got a link to the rush thread, I can't find it.

[tame egret]

#1423724176497442857

[subtle moss]

Thanks

[rapid knot]

That was just one random idea people were throwing around when people were talking about ideas, serious or not, for far-distant events

It wasn't any sort of official planning

Official event planning doesn't go on in the public channels

[grizzled shuttle]

is there a sheet with the to-do fusions of the current event?

I wanna do one or two this weekend at least

[signal nexus]

#1423724176497442857 ? should be in the pins
you gotta join the google group first though, to avoid spam

[grizzled shuttle]

what about the other two mons to be completed tho?

[signal nexus]

?
sableye, spiritomb, mimikyu, and litwick
you should be able to toggle between checklists at the bottom here

[signal nexus]

those should have been completed. that's why we have these four unlocked

[grizzled shuttle]

they'rw not appearing to me tho

[signal nexus]

did you click the right claims sheet? it should be the first pin in that thread

dunno if i can give you the link like this, but https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yWfVEZDdGN4i_9UXo0xe0OjkFMgb0rAF_G6cu5yvBq8/edit?gid=841868360#gid=841868360

oh

I'm dumb

Zaza Gabor?

Probably

[little cypress]

@cedar quest don't worry about event stuff until your hand is fully recovered! Rest up and take extra good care of yourself

[minor garnet]

Scary stream incoming

[tame egret]

[cloud solstice]

hello chat, if you have time to kill (somehow ), we're looking for feedback on our event Elusive Pokédex https://forms.gle/6DjxLHdhB1xrQj9eA
even if you aren't a participant or don't know much about it we'll still welcome your answers and suggestions

[agile quest]

zero and I are hosting a non-IF [gen 7 and below only] prize hunter for funsies btw check it out #1355989314290450452 message

[plucky arch]

so like

family fuse 2 when

[echo peak]

Thought I posted my Raticate/Garbodor for the Food Fight but doesn't matter; votes are votes

[signal nexus]

lol Gordo just fixed the spacing right before i was going to screenshot it

[urban siren]

wow i have gradient colors

[topaz quest]

Congrats!!!

[agile quest]

kinda upset with how low my crustle/golisopod ranked but also the feedback was real feedback so cant complain about that lol

[limpid sphinx]

this is literally the only contest that would make me comeback

[plucky arch]

you hear that guys? the people crave it

[agile quest]

what was family fuse i mustve missed it

[plucky arch]

im so old bruh

[mystic mauve]

it's brought up by Old, Retired so

[agile quest]

according to discord ive literally been in the server longer than you i just wasnt active in events until recently

[potent sorrel]

I didn't get last this time :O

I got 45th

[mighty stump]

The judges didn't like me trying to be extra and silly with the slowpoke shellos but at least the castform rainy did very well :3

[hushed stream]

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

such cool submissions! I realize I never looked through the concept art submissions before so I'm really having a nice time seeing them all :)

[potent sorrel]

My only chance of winning one of the Fusion Day events is the Fan Art contest

So we'll see how well I did there... eventually

[hushed stream]

same haha

[mighty stump]

I have no idea how they're going to score that tbh

[hushed stream]

I have no idea how the judges are going to judge fan art though

lol same hat

I'm glad I'm not in their shoes

[mighty stump]

Yeah bshzjaisks

[potent sorrel]

We're all winners

[hushed stream]

half the sever will have rainbow names

[signal nexus]

still think they should just rate [non-numerical adjective or noun]/10
shading/10
frogs/10
papier mache/10

[hushed stream]

but numbers make me feel alive

[mighty stump]

At the end of the day we did all make nice art for someone for the fanart contest so I think we are

[echo peak]

That we are

[hushed stream]

I agree with this judge

[signal nexus]

the server icon is a collage of all the artworks
1 pixel for each one

[hushed stream]

that's what I'm talking about

[potent sorrel]

Nah a 1 hour gif for the server icon going through all entrants

[hushed stream]

yeah surely that wouldn't be too big

[mystic mauve]

nah it goes at the speed of those gifs where you have to screenshot and share which one you got

[lament matrix]

Some placements in the event confuse me
Mostly cuz Spriteability is seen so important but we end up with like Groudon Mudsdale on 5 while there is stuff like Lumineon Lurantis

[signal nexus]

all the numbers will be in equations like the xkcd guy's check to Verizon

[rapid knot]

Don't give us ideas

Now the spriters can have that math quiz they've always wanted

[signal nexus]

people can't complain about the numbers they got if they can't understand the numbers [taps forehead]

[rapid knot]

Au contraire
People complain about stuff they don't understand all the time

[hushed stream]

true

aw man, I got imaginary numbers in my results

[signal nexus]

true
the story behind that check is exactly that, innit?
https://imgs.xkcd.com/verizon_billing.mp3

[rapid knot]

This goes on for twenty two minutes

I feel bad for the phone worker
He was clearly not expecting to have to think that hard that day

[signal nexus]

i feel like the caller would have gotten further along had he suggested the phone worker convert from cents to dollars at the start of the calculation

[rapid knot]

That's what I was thinking

You gotta tell him exactly where to place the decimals and zeroes

[hushed stream]

man I'm listening to this and it's rough

on both sides tbh

Like obviously a frustrating experience as a customer, but also I imagine it does suck to suddenly have to do surprise math when you usually don't have to as a customer service person

[rapid knot]

Wh
How long is it really

[signal nexus]

mine says 34:07

[hushed stream]

mine does too

[rapid knot]

I can't skip to the end because the end isn't there

[hushed stream]

ok 8 minutes in and the verizon guy should really understand by now

[merry mica]

[signal nexus]

those are great numbers brah
