my sprites aren't the same as yours so you can't judge them fairly
then we can do the same sprite.
what is the point of that
you think your sprites are better than mine correct?
quite a bit of them
like?
those two aren't even that bad of sprites compared to what i sent from you
just slightly akward if anything
that eevee has horrible shading, you did nothing but paste in the face
and didnt even remove the face outlien near the ear
its horrible, and considering mine was atleast a good concept can you really talk about it?
mine was also a good concept, a simple one too
which doesn't make it a bad one
guys, stop being childish
the concept isnt bad, the performance is
is this of general interest? just use dms
i bet some get a kick out of watching us be 5yos
it is funny
yeah
petty sprite rivalries are fun



Peasants fighting about whos sprite is better
keke hahahahah
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Peasants XS
XD
It’s not Sjoba’s sprite
:3c
I think sjoba wants a reaction @bold barn
@burnt bane Tbh i really like yours
and your gen2 fusion is my fav so far
BUT
your gen 4 fusion is ... .... ... not good...
It’s too thin in certain places and the head looks like it should have a jaw visible
Limbs are noodles and body is .. a ... Not pickle but ... worse...
It’s definitely better than Sjoba’s Sinnoh fusion
Imma break your kneecaps
Well yours are more noodled and i mean Infernape limbs are . more stickish but thats fitting his entire body
in your fusion thats definetly not the case
Eitherway
your gen 2 fusion is one of the strongest entrys so far anyways
so who would care about theyr other ?
only one of yours can win
hueh
i doubt since there will be only one number 1 winner
It's going to be interesting to see what happens regarding winners. 🙂
I don't expect to win this one, but I'm really happy with what I submitted. 😄

Peasants fighting about whos sprite is better
exactly
Kj this is #event-general im going to have to ask you to stop trying to say your sprites are better than pips
especially when youre wrong, roasted
yes, thats why I said it. I very much do not like pip, no reason for me to lie
#spriter-general
I thought the contest entries had closed early when there was a new post in #event-announcements
When will they close?
Thx
Isaac just trolling around
I said in my original post that there would be a warning at the halfway point. It's not my fault none of you read my messages.
thats just proof that nobody here can read. better disqualify anyone who complained 

I just forgot
"everything is okay" alarm
i saw ur pfp as a blue bear
Damn, that Johto submission from Jamo is great. 😮
It’s good, but I still don’t like that everything is so round
Oh yeah, I can't unsee that on the armbands now. 😂
@wheat socket your new sprites a huge step up
it looks weird imo (the jamo sprite)
I'm not a huge fan of the new jamo one
Its good but I dont like the flowers
I have honestly no idea where you guys are coming from whe you mean pillow Shading, it looks pretty fine to me
question, can we enter the contest if we are not spriters?
I believe so
AfterKing literally anybody can enter
but only one can win enter at danimalsweepstakes.com for your chance to win, certain terms may apply
@crude cedar yes you can. :)
Some people from reddit often enter the contest, without being on this server
but can redditors win is the question, no no they can not 
has a redditor ever won?
Placed 3rd in the reptilian contest
Weve had redditors take first place in the past i think
We’ve had a Redditor win a lot of the time, since mammuth is a Redditor too
i think they mean only spriters that arent in this discord but are on reddit
has somebody who is on reddit, and not in the discord won
I know what they meant, I was joking
good joke bro i laughed
I didn't owo
comedy
I think Milchik may have just won the contest, that's an incredible sprite. 😄

i miss that meme
I think Milchik may have just won the contest, that's an incredible sprite. 😄
Agreed!

After this contest I'm going to take a break from doing these contests
why
I need to get better as a spriter
and I don't think making fusions is teh best way to help me grow
I'm going to submit the 2 sprites I made as is
I know I"m not going to win but that's ok
losing is more a part of life than winning is
^^
For a while I felt angry that I lost contests and thought that I was being robbed. I have learned that it isn't the case and there's a reason that I've lost all these times and it's not because of haters or favoritism. I'm simply not as good as many pixel artists in this server.
well, i honestly believe that one day you will win. you are really talented. everyone needs to take breaks sometime. hope you will have a good day! : )
Thank you. I do know that I'm going to win another contest here some day but today is not the day. I have won before but there's still much much more growing to be done.
Geno I think you're being really hard on yourself, honestly. 😦
Not only are you a great spriter in your own right, but contest losses are not indicative of skill. A lot of it comes down to style preferences; a lot of voters like really elaborate, intricate designs, though sprites that are simpler aren't inherently bad at all. 🙂
I had the same worry recently, but staying true to your style and enjoying spriting is way more important than an arbitrary number of votes it gets in a contest. 😄
Thank you. I do know that I'm going to win another contest here some day but today is not the day. I have won before but there's still much much more growing to be done.
i still have much to learn, if i even want to have a chance 😅 . all of these talented spriters are really amazing at making sprites. ill stay and compete in all the contest i can. and i hope i will improve. : )
I think you do have a point but I myself am not happy with my skill level. It isn't some weird confidence issue.
id say the opposite
I know im above avarage
but im far from the top
B)
But definetly a good bit above average B)
everybody that gets on the same bracket as milchik's sinnoh:

Reupload because original got deleted. (The picture of a rat smoking is not real, it is photoshopped.)
💧
One day left
im panicking*
Panicking*
Thanks!
:munch:
im panicking since im doing a gen 1 triple, and im not close to done
just finish
pogger
Katten if you post your sprite with a mustache ill vote for you
my gen 4 one?
slap a mustache on all of them
looking woward for the next round
i dont even think i can make a sprite with 6 hours remaining
ok isaac
i mean, i wasted two weeks. (oops)
😎 now lets watch people riot over the winner
agree except me
people won't riot over the winner, they will riot over the pokemon they pick to be added
now @pastel fog what pokemon will you add? 
now this is getting awkward
💧
I wouldn't say it, just to be safe
this contest even before the voting starts is already taking my joy away
anticipated removing my spriter role before i want it gone after the results
idk guys I just really think that I have a really good competition with other really amazing sprites :"""D I don't think that my sprite is THAT superior
I think it's just pretty nice
so I don't wanna answer questions like that 
its just jamo vs mammuth vs milchik at this point
one dude already asked me about it in DM a few days ago lmao
lmao
its just jamo vs mammuth vs milchik at this point
and then me vs scrapi vs bla
nah, your sprite is that superior
I already know the ones I'm going to vote for probably won't win
easy win
I already know the ones I'm going to vote for probably won't win
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, who are you gonna vote for 👀
I already know the ones I'm going to vote for probably won't win
im sure my votes wont win cause i always vote for myself
i'm not panicking, cause I'm not entering
my favorites in this case are ones that people will probably call simplistic
mine? 👀👀
but I shouldn't reveal my votes ahead of time
shoot
i mean, my sinnoh got 25 upvotes
thats about it
and i was actually proud of that sprite
guess not
this contest even before the voting starts is already taking my joy away
@compact saddle What joy have you ever exerted?
contemplating suicide
luckily we can still use whichever sprites we want no matter which ones win
i mean, my sinnoh got 25 upvotes
ha, mine got 28
ok
anticipated removing my spriter role before i want it gone after the results
@compact saddle You don't have a spriter role to remove. 👀
thats why i said i anticipated it
Then why say you want it gone? 🤔
well i should have worded that better
i meant that i'd probably want it gone after the disappointing contest results
so i just did it beforehand
reposting since isaac didnt see lol (very bad meme)
the only ones I'm undecided on my favorites for are Johto and Hoenn
mmh.
my favs are on all gens
каlм
卡姆
ok weeb
lmao
Yeah some of these are a tough choice. The brackets might help me decide on a few of them
I think it'll be pretty easy for me to decide. I personally didn't like most of the sprites
idrc about people knowing my vote so, for johto its 100% retro's
Find it kind of pointless to join contests of which the victor can be easily predicted, cause you know the voters to an extent.
It's why I haven't be partaking anymore
There isn't really a Hoenn one that balanced all 3 in a way that I like

reposting since isaac didnt see lol (very bad meme)
I did see.
drunk
thank you katten will do
I did see.
pog (i didnt know lol)
btw for the record, are animated sprites like Tenedranox's allowed? That would be good to know for the future
I imagine it would be hard to make them show up animated in the bracket images
just make the bracket gifs
ngl tene's just abusing cause he knows the rules and is isaac's contest helper

did tene make a gif?
yes
show
no
i was actually gonna vote his no matter what sprite was in the bracket but nvm
lmao
what a sad outcome
shut fuck
I just hope I get a few votes, this is going to be a really competitive one. 😂
I really want a themed competition next, they're my faves. 😅
I think I know who will win
im just hopeless
btw for the record, are animated sprites like Tenedranox's allowed? That would be good to know for the future
@normal nebula Yes, animated sprites are allowed.
Oh God in Heaven... 😦
I might need to confine them if it ends up that they always win, but for now yeah, they're allowed. The program has recently been updated by @zenith matrix to make sure they'll work properly in the voting image, too.
@zenith matrix It might not be your cup of tea, but have you thought about animating for the Smogon sprite project? 😄
i dont know wheither it would be my cup of tea, but i aint got time really anyway to do so... 😕
time is a idiot lol
Ah fair enough, just thought I'd ask! Door's always open there for more animators. 🙂
ngl tene's just abusing cause he knows the rules and is isaac's contest helper
@compact saddle btw it was always possible to do so, infact was the very first thing i ever talked with Isaac ever about, just the displaying of such was always a problem with the sheets
op
who dared to copy my sprite? 🔫
isaac multiplying them as much as possible to rig the contest so its only that sprite
time is a idiot lol
@silver merlin wait what is that referring to me
someone copied mine too lol
its here soon D:
Not that soon. It's taking a while to create the sheets since they now have gifs on them.
Seems like it's optimised pretty poorly.
oh i see take your time
I'm estimating the polls should be up in about ten minutes.
We’ll hold you to that
They're all on one line because I'm an idiot, so you might need to squint to see them.
Or I can delay it by a small amount and fix that issue.
First person to reply gets to decide.

I was already working on fixing the issue. I wasn't just going to post it half done.
Fix the issue
"Fix the issue"
Knuckles can see the contest-polls channel meaning he knows full well I've already fixed the issue
Damn bracket 5 is difficult, there are some really good choices
And the animated sprites are really cool
nice white screen
I ain't fixing people's transparency issues for them. 👀
Anymore. 
I should have made mine into a gif
More gifs would have meant it would have taken longer, and thus my mistake would have cost more time. 
yeaa im not a fan of gif sprites in a game that mostly has png sprites
Next time someone should make a gif with a load of frames and a single frame with something that isn't the sprite 👀
The game can run them, though. It's just an extra thing that spriters can do.
Like a random frame of knuckles
hell yeah
who knew it was that easy
gifs won't be added to the game as gifs if they win btw
Feels like I should have only added them to the vote as pngs
That makes sense though. They'd look out of place for someone not using any other gifs, and it saves on some space.
yeah exactly
I feel like everyone will vote for bracket 3 A1 and it'll ruin the poll 
im kinda surprised it was even included in the poll tbh
same lol
easy to vote for this tbh, most sprites were not that great imo
I like A2 a lot
its in the same bracket as mammuth's plus one of the gif ones, so i have no clue how that's gonna turn out 😅
my sprite in milchiks bracket press f for me
rip
I feel like everyone will vote for bracket 3 A1 and it'll ruin the poll
If it gets more than 0 votes I'm honestly gonna be dissapointed xD
I like A3 in my bracket but it has not enough Infernape for me personally
it would look amazing as torterra/empoleon
My sprite is Monke
and he chilling
sitting down and just being there
He don care
neither do it
is this gen 3?
gen 4
The head piece gives it away
it's got the pengwings. Nice sprite but not recognizable enough, I agree
looks more like a kyogre/ groudon fusion to me
and i also dislike that gifs are in the poll, since they are clipping other sprites somehow
looks like its got all 3 and its extremely well done probably best one in comp
What are the odds that I ended up in the same bracket twice? Damn it all. 😢
AND AGAINST MILCHIK? 😮
Good lord, RIP my chances. 😦
blaquaza i feel you
any clues as to what the next competition well be?
This looks really close for a fusion contest
Is Mammuth's A1? 😮
yes
This is the first contest where I had to consider before voting, its usually a really easy choice for me. this time there was about 2 in each bracket I thought should win the bracket. There was only one sprite, that I thought was the best with no doubt, and because I dont wanna upset Isaac, ill just say It was a sinnoh sprite
ah yes, the lactose mammal sprite
lactose mammal?
Im sorry but I uh dont know what you mean wink WINK (more winks for dramatic effect)

I also like the old fashion sprite
it is very well made but i have a bias against old style sprites for some reason
just kinda dislike them
its really well done, not my cup of charcoal though
any clues as to what the next competition well be?
@heady escarp honestly I'm unsure. It may be run by BTA or it may be run by me, and even if it's me I'm not sure if it should be Themed or Classic.
I feel like this one was themed, so the next should be classic if youre alternating
either way, um, good job all around everyone
@fallen adder what competition would you be likely to run if you did one after this?
This one's kind of both themed and classic I suppose because it's a theme of triple fusions, but classic in the sense that you can only use selected Pokémon combinations. It's a tricky one. 😮
there are 12 pokemon, so im going to count it as themed
@fallow bough Big boi 
@fallen adder as in.. oversized baby pokemon?
🤔 d-do you want to make oversized baby pokemon?
No no
gif of pregnant pokemon popping out an egg
and it hatching into a oversized baby pokemon

pregregnant
I thought you wrote pre-pregnant xD
I thought so to
i have anticipated my impregnation
scrapi if you want gifs of pokemon getting it on, im sure somebody here could help you out
you know what give me a minute, I'll go find some to dm you
only if its a pregnant futa getting it on another pregnant futa pokemon
and they're both clearly male pokemon like nidoking
damn it, Ill have to edit these gifs a little bit

what the hell
you have a lot to learn
a lot I dont want to learn*
you wanting it doesn't matter


not gonna lie, I really like A3 in the final bracket, but it's so unrecognizable from its components..
would totally vote for it otherwise but looking at it, I can barely tell what it is. My first thought was something along the lines of "empoleon tyranitar goliopod" lol
Ok, but isn't this based on which looks the best or coolest or beautiful, not how much it looks like a mix of its components? Besides, it has all the parts of each pokemon in it, so why bother nitpicking it?
?
you can vote for whatever reason you want lmao
its not just a "what looks best" thing p sure
to me, the components being recognizable is important, especially if it's being used as an npc or event thing.
I mean, you're not wrong, but that's how mammuth wins all these, no? He makes super epic-looking designs
yeah but usually his designs are much more recognizable component-wise than that.
they look dope but they're also fusions and obviously such
in fact, I can argue that some of his designs don't look too much like their components
well then again like I said
you can vote for whatever reason you want
other people sure as hell are lmao
"looks good" is super basic but if thats how you want to vote then thats how you vote ig
I like to keep in mind creativity of concept and ability to recognize the components personally, on top of looking good, but u do u
I'm honestly only taking you up on this because i voted for A3
it's just me being butthurt honestly
I voted B2 because its really creative, nicely sprited, and I can see the components of it personally.
the map of sinnoh was a dope touch.
we get it, milchik will win
Good shit @pastel fog
wot
I said like two sentences whats with "we get it" lmao
its part of the conversation
lmao im just messing
I mean, I like the other brackets too
I mean yeah there's other brackets too, lots of dope entries
was kinda hard to choose
my entries are on the less scary brackets in my opinion
yeah I had trouble choosing almost every bracket lmao
yeah? I like the ones with a different inspiration behind them other than "it's the starters but all 3"
Third bracket was my hardest decision tbh. C1, C2, B3 and A2 were my favorites, hard to pick.
C2, A3, and B3 were my favorites in the final bracket. I know C2 is a controversial pick.
Idk i thought people didn't like it
c3 and a1 were my picks for the last bracket
this is C2 in case you're confused, JK
oh, you mean of the last bracket oops
nah I think it's a neat design, gives me frog vibes
it reminds me of a monster hnter creature
Not one of my picks personally but its decent sprited, colors look good, cohesive concept
recognizable components
yeah, I especially like how it's quadrupedal as opposed to most of the other bipedal/humanoid entries
👀
wut
yes
Hey! Each of the ones I want to vote for is in a separate bracket this time. Nice.
Stop saying who you vote for. How many times must I say this? 👀
not enough apparently
Let’s ban anyone who says who they voted for
I move my knight to B3. Taking your queen
me when c3
I think the best sprite is bracket 6 g4
I voted for my own but I know I'm not winning
there is no chance
also voted for Stan's
which is stans again?
Stan stan
that one sprite with a white background, because animation
yeanh I stan Stan
hmm
I agree with JK about the fusions needing to be at least vaguely recognisable. A3 is a brilliant sprite but I don't see it and go "That's a Sinnoh starter fusion" because a lot of their more identifiable traits are missing, 😦
And why are people sleeping on the lovely C1 and B3 in bracket 5?
i only see c3 on bracket 5 
@silver merlin it looks like there is a dishwasher behind
imo i would vote for every single thing that isnt c1 in this
thank :D! im def sure im not gonna win tho 😅 , but atleast i made something im proud of 🙂
I thought this is the easiest bracket for me
Bracket 5 and 1 were the hardest to decide for me
bracket 3 won't load for me so i cant decide lol
wasn't even worth my time to see the bracket, i don't like any of the sprites in it 
lmao
I feel so offended right now
Why?
A1 in bracket 3
This is my fav out of all of them
I don’t like the weirdly thin arms and hands
I've not even seen that before, who made that one? 😮
And legs
Yeah I agree with you there, for a scratch sprite it's comparatively tame. 😄
The wings are odd though, they don't really resemble Charizard's in any way other than being wings. 😦
I wouldn't mistake clean art for 'tame'
I personally don't really like it, only voted for it because I didn't like the others
I mean conceptually tame. As in it's not burning petals with smoke and rain and vines up the wazoo, it's just a clean cut fusion and they're the ones I prefer. 🙂
Me too
it's why some people say they like my fusions
cause I never go over the top of what's there
Yeah I'm with you there. The only times I've tried going over the top I've either not been happy, or been called a thief. 😅
and if I got the extra mile, I keep it within boundaries still
Yeah exactly, I feel like a lot of sprites go so overboard that while they're technically amazing, they don't actually resemble the Pokémon style anymore. I always bring this up though, I must sound like a boring broken record. 😂
Ye
I feel like I’m ok at making it Pokémon styled
im not 
Yeah I'd definitely say you are, on one end it's the actual sprite (not cramming too many details in there, having shading you'd expect from the Pokémon style), and in another it's just the design, not making it too busy. I say this as someone who really dislikes a lot of the Ultra Beasts, just to know where I'm coming from. Too busy. 😅
That's why my favorites are B2 in Bracket 3, and B3 in Bracket 2
they're some of the few that actually look like Pokemon
I also feel it's very important to keep the elements of each pokemon throughout the design. In some cases, people will include so many different elements that it makes the components unrecognizable, but it also doesn't make it feel like a fusion of 3 pokemon, just an entirely different creature overall.
I know I couldn't do better though. Triple fusions are really hard because of the lack of clear intuitive rules on which parts should go where.
^^^ I tried doing it for the contest and it absolutely broke me.

I feel this is especially true when it comes to Bracket 5's A3. An amazing sprite, absolutely, but I can only just about see Empoleon and at a push Infernape, no Torterra outside of the fact it's green in some places. 😦
i can only see haxorus/empoleon on it lmao
yeah
But when it comes to me, I vote on which both looks the best and my favorite starter of the gen is prominent in the design. That's just me, and when it came to Bracket 5's A3, it's a good sprite by my criteria.
-Includes Empoleon prominently
-Looks cool
The only real reason I didn't vote for some of them was because some other disliked starter was more prominent in the design, so when it comes to me, it just boils down to bias.
well if that was my criteria id only vote for primary torterra and swampert
could care less about gen 1 and 2 lol
I base my votes on how long it takes me to recognize which pokemon the fusions are. If it takes more than a second, I probably dont vote for it
I don't think they do at all. 🙂

I dont know whose sprites are whose so I just kind of try to put that out of my mind while voting
i wont say mine cause im too disappointed 
imo though, anybody who managed to finish a sprite for this contest did better than I could, cause it was a hard theme, so I dont think any of them are bad
except for A1 in bracket 3
whatever the fuck is going on there
thats the best sprite there is
I'm sure it will get at least 5 votes, I'm calling it
I feel this is especially true when it comes to Bracket 5's A3. An amazing sprite, absolutely, but I can only just about see Empoleon and at a push Infernape, no Torterra outside of the fact it's green in some places. 😦
@quartz locust
i can only see haxorus/empoleon on it lmao
@compact saddle
Hey im the one who did the haxorus empoleon lol that mons suppose to have torteras body but I guess it hard to notice
hmm
didnt you use a different color pallette? idk i dont see their original colors
a few people tried to blend the colors. There's no rules for triple fusions in terms of colors, per se, but it does make it harder to recognize them at a glance
I was torn between calling it a gen 3 or 4 tripple Fusion but the design is clean and well made but not well composed as a fusion
Hey im the one who did the haxorus empoleon lol that mons suppose to have torteras body but I guess it hard to notice
@verbal lance Oh I wasn't trying to trash your sprite because I honestly really like it, and I can see the features of the starters, it's just that I have to look really hard to see them compared to some of the other fusions. The design would be fantastic if it wasn't specifically a fusion, if that makes sense. I'm really sorry if that sounds too harsh. 😦
no no im not mad or nothin
@brazen pawn you really couldnt tell which Gen. it was wow????
maybe this makes sense or maybe it doesn't, but
Yeah I kinda saw blaziken and swampert
yo wtf @haughty laurel you're here all this time?
the fact that is pixelated makes it hard to see
@compact saddle lurking in the shadows lol
y do you only post on reddit lol
it feels like some people tried to make fusions whereas other people tried to make evolutions
it feels like some people tried to make fusions whereas other people tried to make evolutions
huh
@normal nebula what fusion would you call evolutions?
like evolutions of all 3 pokemon at once, but not actually being them all, if that makes sense
stuff like A1, bracket 1, I could see as being an evolution
who else? 👀
idk, its hard to judge. Its a hard distinction to make anyway since the only example I know of for triple fusions is the legendary bird one which has 3 heads and looks like all of them at once
rather than a new creature created from them
dunno what mine would be on your standards
idk which one that is
idk which one that is
im glad
isn't A3 from Bracket 1 yours? I like that one, but it definitely has features that feel like they're evolutions of the pokemon, like holding the globe and stuff. It's a cool idea, it's just not what my brain would jump to when I think fusion

@normal nebula thats what i tried to do with my Gen 1 and Gen 2, my Gen 3 went of the rails and never recovered though
shit he found out
but for a contest, it's literally proven that going for more elaborate designs is a safer bet
I actually liked a3 from bracket 1 the most out of bracket 1

I mean I tried it last time and placed top 3, despite that not being my preferred approach
nice
@umbral rune same
@haughty laurel I dont remember which ones are yours but I remember seeing your name among one of the ones I liked
I think it was the gen 2 one, but im not sure
☺️
thats my fav of yours too
no clue what are scarecrow's
a3 from bracket 3
i am just sad that my sprite is getting ignored, i really had the feeling it will survive round 1 but not in this bracket probably. Sad :/
well we havent seen the votes yet
which one's yours?
bracket 5 a1
i am just sad that my sprite is getting ignored, i really had the feeling it will survive round 1 but not in this bracket probably. Sad :/
i love your feraligatr thing
awww thanks ^^
i think i voted for it
everyone was singing B2's praises from that bracket, so I think that one will probably win that bracket
mhm
B2 is good too, although thats another I'd call more of an evolution. Although it's a cool one
yeah milchiks sprite is really good
XD
and the sad part is im not joking
@brazen pawn yours was one of my favorites!!
that's why you should always submit sprites last minute so people can't be biased against them
yes
D: @verbal lance thanks i appreciate that a lot
i was so sad mine was on the same bracket, cus then i couldn't vote for both of ours
retro, of the ones in that bracket, I'd probably rank yours my second fav
D:
that was a compliment
its better than last place
lol
yeah retro.. sorry i too voted for someone else but u were my secodn favourite in this bracket it was a hard choice ... in almost all brackets for me usually i dont struggle this much with voting but this time i had a reallly hard time
if only we could vote three times per bracket >__<
ranked voting would be cool, but probably hard to implement
just reading it makes me happy honestly
i would vote for yours if i didnt vote for yours, retro
imagine being voted though 
I'm not even gonna get second in that bracket and I have two submissions in it. 😢
at least u made some attempts that you can show others... my attempts are so bad i scrap them myself no experience whatsoever in spriting and in the past two weeks i was thinking about learning to do so but ultimately after two or three attempts scrapped the whole thing >__<
@crude cedar starting with tripple fusions is really hard tho
thats the thing, people kept saying the heads shouldnt be in those positions, but I didnt agree
@normal nebula that probably to with Charizards being way skinnier than the other 2
but overall I dont think it would have turned out well either way
hmm i only say that because venasuars head is very wide, and would be hard to implement as one of the side heads
if he wasn't so thick this wouldn't be a problem
either way, there's already a gen 1 entry that I like more so I wouldnt end up using my own in my game anyway
lol
my fav gen 1 would have to be a2 from bracket 3
it looks so well made
which one would you use?
bracket 2 B3
congrats for your victory @pastel fog , we already know that you will win, at least I have an advantage XD
bruh
bruh
I really feel not good when you say things like that guys 
if enough people vote by pure sprite quality, I'd say mammuth's Bracket 3 B1 has a good chance of winning too
a lot of people had a problem with that mammuth sprite
i dont think i win with my sinnoh sprite
Mammuth's Kanto one is superb! 😄
yikes
I think the Sinnoh one is every problem I've ever had with one of Mammuth's sprites put into one design though. 😂
the votes rarely turn out how I think they will, so we'll see
I think it's good, a tad too brown, but otherwise good.
the votes rarely turn out how I think they will, so we'll see
if they do turn out how i think they will, ill not be there to see yalls finals
lol
if i don't win, i really hope miltank win, his sprite is the best imo
Im not saying I voted for mil but he deserves that W
Curse both of my sprites being put in bracket 5. 😢
happens to the best of us
sorry for my sinnoh triple fusion 😅 😭
lol you shouldn't have to apologize, it's a great sprite
it didn't come out as I expected
Yeah it really is a technical feat, I just think the design is way too much. On a purely technical level though I'd say it's the best, perhaps. 🙂
But that's not the only thing I consider when voting. 😅
my criteria is
my sprite
not my sprite
survival of the fittest
so basically everyone
I'm voting for everyone
everyone probably already voted this round so its probably not a big deal
i'll make tons of alts, so everyone gets a vote
Saying who you didn't vote for =/= who you did vote for. 😉
you probably should not be making any alts
I was joking
(yes I know it was a joke)
its a waste of time anyways
Jezza disagrees. 😂
usually im amazed by mammuths sprites.. thsi time (i only know the creators of two sprites) the one mammuth i know i didnt vote for.. well made but waaay too complex wouldnt want that in the game tbh...the other i knew it was from i did vote for (miltank^^)
ngl the way i vote is kinda sad
i just strictly check wich one has the highest chance imo to win the bracket and not vote for it specifically
Is it bad that I vote for my own because I'm too scared of getting 0 votes? 😢
i just vote for what i liek the most.. is that wrong? xD
everyone votes their own
@quartz locust if i didnt vote for mine in the past some wouldve gotten 0 lol
And you're a really good spriter too, so that has me worried for this contest. 😦
I mean, if you get 1 vote, and its yourself, you still practically got 0 votes
I feel like I played it too safe with my Johto fusion and the Sinnoh one might be a bit of a mess. 😢
@umbral rune no lol
It's still 0 votes, but you don't have to see the number 0. 😦
if you dont vote yourself, and the one you voted for beats yours by 1 vote, you will be kicking yourself
always vote yourself
Just because its a 1, you still voted for it yourself, so while technically its not 0, its basically 0
you are still gonna have the feeling and thought that no one else voted for it
I mean, that doesn't mean people dislike it, of course
if you dont vote yourself, and the one you voted for beats yours by 1 vote, you will be kicking yourself
Also this, I'm too competitive. 😂
I almost never vote for myself, because I believe the best should win
Also this, I'm too competitive. 😂
mainly the reason i complain after results
and I only enter for fun
always vote yourself til your out of it 😉
@crude cedar sorry to have disappointed this time 😱 😮
I actually wasnt aware the first a1 was yours until i checked after voting
my sprites are yikes
@wheat socket i only knew two before i voted so chances are i did vote for at least oen of your other sprites 🙂
if u have entered with three that is... i expect u did tho
only enter for fun?!... and for the chance to add a pokemon of your choice into the game! 😄
imagine having fun on contests
what's fun
if I got the chance to decide, I wouldnt tell anyone what I chose, and I'd just pick a random one nobody wants, so its a good thing I didnt enter
I still think that some of the sprites are better than mine 
thats only you bucko
u need a spreadsheet list all the pokemon we want in the game so u can pick the one pokemon noone wanted... 😄
luvdisc
gumshoos
well nobody talked about the ones i want so, idc really
Sjoba actually did do a poll of standalone ones. 🙂
nah some people were already thinking about luvdisc.. werent they?
Milchik, when you win pick Breloom please. Help a pal out.
some random mid evolution without the rest of its line
pignite
luvdisc could have some nice fusion potential tho.. 🙂
I don't think Luvdisc is a good choice because it doesn't have enough features to make it interesting to fuse. 😦
blaquaza thats the hecking point
Unless you do what people do with Smeargle and go for heart themes the way people do artsy themed ones for Smeargle. 😦
i mean luvdisc head would be bland asf... but if u have luvdisc body you can makea giant heart and as logn as you keep the colouring and other things of the other pokemon u can do all u want
mhmhmhm fair point
i dont really like many smeargle ones.. so i shouldnt spout luvdisc ideas .. otherwise someoen might think this might really be a good idea
if i wanted to choose the one i most despise id make the game have a second meganium
Milchik, when you win pick Breloom please. Help a pal out.
IF I win, I'd not pick something grass tbh, I love Breloom a LOT but I think we have too many grass types already
Im also boring and like evolution lines to be finished, but thats not what people voted for so 🤷♂️
I'd pick pyukumuku
In that case, I've heard Ribombee or Golisopod are pretty cool choices.
like I want bibarel so bidoof is actually viable
Yeah I definitely want Bibarel. 🙂
i mean talking about fusion potential bibarel wouldnt bring that much new to the game either
would mean more viable fusion than bidoof tho.. so taling gameplay.. good idea
ish
I mean, Frogdude will probably add cool mons to balance the game, so Pyukumuku could be added just for really fun fusions
it would improve the worth of bidoof fusions
just add thundurus
its a old buff man on a cloud and beads tail
Bibarel's more of a gameplay addition than a fusion potential one. 🙂
What ones are you thinking about Milchik, if you don't mind me asking? 😄
dotn tell milchik
palpitoad is another I would have liked to have seen that many people sleep on
otherwise suddenly noone will vote u in the final anymore
I abhor Palpitoad. 😅
i want you to win so shut up!^^
not pog
I mean when I get knocked out I'm probably MAKING AN UNDISCLOSED VOTE, YES, THAT'S WHAT I SAID because the sprite is more important than the Pokémon addition to me. 🙂
who cares about our entries anyway
its just mammuth or milchik anyway
milchik isn't stupid lmao they aren't going to say what they add
yeah the pokemon addition is the last thing Im thinking about, otherwise I would have done an entry just for the sake of it
I'm not going to say what I'd add at least cuz I'd wanna ask Frogman what he will add first
I mean at that point we'd be better off doing a poll for what we want to add if that's how people cast their votes. 😦
very diplomatic answer... good boy
just to not repeat things that he will add anyway
Frogman's got that list of 25 or so he's considering adding. 😉
nice that you took my Pyukumuku suggestion as a joke, now you'll not expect it
yea, I know, but it's still considering
Breloom, Banette, Palossand (which he said is likely to be removed in favour of the contest winner's choice), Hydreigon and some more. 😦
sound good so far.. not sure about banette tho
I wasn't too keen on Banette either. 😢
does banette bring anythign to the game we havnt already covered?
banette is better than breloom to add 
No. 😠
i mean.. a cute ghost fusion sprite wise maybe..
i loved breloom when i first palyed 3rd gen back in the days.. also amazign effect to fuse with.. and interesting design both head and body so fusions can go a lot of things
i want breloom
imagine Gyarados with a zipped mouth
gothitelle is another good one
oooh zipped mouth on so many mons would be amazing yeah.. golbat comes to mind 🙂
i just think breloom is not interesting, my opinion though, only time i ever interacted with it was to grind in an route that had it
gothitelle is another good one
yes love it
Mimikyu fusions would look superior
you look inferior
mimikyu is borderline mandatory. I have so many ideas for it already
might as well start some mimikyu requests then xD
@normal nebula agreed
so.. wouldm imikyus head be the head of its sheet... the sheet.. or whats under the sheet?^^
I hope Frogman adds it anyway so a winner spot is still free
I dont know how its head is going to work though, but all the body pokemon would basically just be it disguising as a different pokemon than pikachu
i just think breloom is not interesting, my opinion though, only time i ever interacted with it was to grind in an route that had it
@compact saddle What route had a fully evolved Breloom? 😮
or maybe vice versa, idk
yeah time that works well for sprited fusions.. but the vast majority will be generated
I think it can be really creative
@compact saddle What route had a fully evolved Breloom? 😮
a randomized one
rip
and mimikyu generated... is askign for trouble^^
imagine Nidoking trying to disguise as pikachu
im talking about sprited ones though, obviously. There are already plenty of awful generated ones in the game
imagine arceus
imagine exploud
wailord.. pikatchu gets sreched ofer a footballfield..^^
imagine the wailord one would just be a regular wailord with a tiny pikachu sheet on top
i like that idea^^
It's just a regular mimikyu cloth
With 1 tiny yellow pixel sticking out
Indicating joltik
aww
and then there's what to do with mimikyu + pikachu, just a more realistic disguise I guess
mimikyu in ded pikachu's skin
if mimikyu gets added, I hope there's a contest for it
oh god yes
mimikyu in ded pikachu's skin
just like my shuckle/quagsire with the shuckle inside a dead quagsire?
ye something like that
oh if tripe fusions could fuse.. that would be amazing
fusing two tripplefusions... 🙂
Zapmolticuno x the winner of the starter fusion contest lol
for the ultimate mess
it's mammuth's hell
@wheat socket time to get creative
sorry mammuth 
justkiddin
especially after i didnt like one of mammuths becasue too complex... yeah sure.. o nthe very same day i want to fuse two tripples with each other xD
tbh what can go wrong
at soem point we have all colours in use and nothing wil lbe added .. pokemon got wings claws cannons talons several heads etc^^
judjing by this thing, my chances are same with the sprite I'd like to see as torterra/empoleon instead of a triple sinnoh fusion
why is it not hidden
those are votes that didnt get counted for some reason
super weird
if triple fusions could only fuse with other triple fusions that wouldnt be too absurd of a number of possibilities, but still overkill
what about a triple fusion self fusion
i mean right now it wouldnt be too many.. with the new tripple fusions .. at least 4 more its startign to get to a point where that would be crazy to sprite
it'll become an amalgamate from undertale
triple fusion self fusion might be a nice way to get alt sprites in the game^^
what if you
got two self fusions of the same mon
and fused them
Mammuth's would work as a triple fusion self fusion I'd say. 🙂
LOL
or people could just go through alt sprites themselves and pick their favorites like I do
fuse two 2nd palces with each other and get a 1st palce out of it 🙂
nah
havign first as the main one makes more sense eh?
its just that we already know whos 1st
so fusing two first places gives second?... not sure how i feel about that th
and not even combined power gets past it
not even with the power of love?
nothing beats that fucking thing
ok
What about a force from above? 😮
i didnt see its 2 days of voting lol
rip
gifs won't be added to the game as gifs if they win btw
@vast jay but the sprite sequence i hope? submitting a sequence doesnt make sense
no
they said no gifs or "sequences" because it wouldnt fit in with the rest of the game
and only make the download file bigger
I think it's all right to have them as an alt options but not as the main things
like that people can download sequences if they want but the main game will remain it's not animated style
someone would have to go through and animate every major important pokemon for it to feel natural
judging by the fact his sinnoh one is D 🤔
How unexpected
doesnt mean anything, just means at least 3 people tried to vote for him and their votes didnt get counted
eh yea true
oh is that what that is
I thought it was people commenting the emoji before Isaac set up the bot
no idea, but from what I have observed, just because a sprite has a few visible votes doesnt mean that its the winning one
So will the new Pokemon that will be added added in listed order or will it be a different dex number? As in will it be 352 or will it be 360-something (After Kyurem or after a few newly added Pokemon)?
I think Frogman's selection were in Dex order, so it might just fit into that. 🙂
ima @ isaac so he can ban everyone for saying who they voting for
@bright elk implying you need to @ me and that I wasn't already considering it. 😤
I thought it was people commenting the emoji before Isaac set up the bot
@bright elk nah, as stated above by... Someone, they're votes that weren't counted for one reason or another, probably something to do with multiple accounts or weird VPN things or something, I assume. It's always the same names that show up in them. I usually remove them, but I uh, didn't.
I've noticed that they are rarely indicative of the winner, too, which is interesting. Guess those guys don't have the same tastes as the masses.
Huh, upon going through them there it seems there are some new ones stuck in reaction limbo.
its really weird having 2 days of voting
True
In what way was 24 hours long?
I very cleverly (and subtly, might I add) edited out the part of my post where I hinted at who I was voting for. 😉
Are we not allowed to talk about how we all agreed to vote for REDACTED
Wait you voted for REDACTED? How could you when SPRITER X did a much better job? 😮
and here i was, thinking ppl would appreciate me walking the extra mile and implementing more elements of the fusion bases via animation.... 😕
the white background one is on me, havent had time to finish and properly render it and due to the lack of time handed it in literally last second
will do a proper version of it soon enough
someone would have to go through and animate every major important pokemon for it to feel natural
@normal nebula 🤔
how many would that be?
Are the finals today?
@zenith matrix idk, a lot. Like gym leader signature pokemon, legendaries, soecial fusions, etc.
should start in about 4 hours ye (proably semi or next preliminary tho
why is the voting so damn long
In what way was 24 hours long?
@fallow bough more than enough time for someone to make a choice
shut
nah
i myself can prove it isnt enough
except on these contests, i vote carelessly if there isnt a sprite of mine

thats just you... ?
Im pretty sure most people of not all other than you put effort into voting
Do you just not believe in time zones?
more time = more people get involved
I personally don't see the reason to short the time for such an important contest
timezones or not its still 48 hours for everyone
but if there are inactive people, why think they might become active just to vote for the contest??
cuz 1) they can be inactive in discord but can be active in the game/in reddit, and 2) not everyone wants to be pinged everytime, so they didn't chose the role for it and could accidentally miss it
timezones or not its still 48 hours for everyone
@ashen star y-yes. That's why I made it 48 hours.
You said consider timezones, but that doesnt change anything, and yes people on reddit i guess but before voting times were 24 hrs and there weren't any problems :/
I don't see the reason to rush really. the only way 48 hours can be bad is just annoying impatient people

sorry, my english is bad
also, why give more time when it isnt needed its been shown that just one day works
I mean that waiting 48 hours can be bad only for impatient people, I believe that it's totally ok for all other people
again, it's an important contest, so more people involved = better
that brings up another idea.. can we open new contest whilst the old one is still in the voting phase? xD
the winners will be added in the game, others will be scrapped in "others" folder
with other contests, all sprites are resulted to be added in the main forlder
its not impatience its more irritating having t wait 2x longer as previous voting periods
so if we can find a compromise between getting as many people involved as possible AND not waiting for too long, I think 48 hours is perfect
and considering humans are human for their ability in choice making and remembrance, i dont see why increase the time
i think 24 hours per voting stage was alright already.. i mean if u have preliminaries semi finals and finals.. thats a week of voting
you really sound like you're just impatient, really 
I don't see any problems with 48 hours besides that
i think 24 hours per voting stage was alright already.. i mean if u have preliminaries semi finals and finals.. thats a week of voting
exactly...
Thats a week of voting
compared to 3 days
it's all right
It's cause it's an important contest for the game so they want to make sure everybody gets a chance to vote, even people who don't come in here that often
Yeah that makes sense
can you actually give me at least one heavy reason why 48 hours is so bad?
i dont think its bad
sorry, it really sounded from you like that :"D
I think its unnecessary
no sarcasm, really sorry
But What timeaxis said makes sense
I tried to say the exact same thing :")
it's all right anyway
more people = more votes for an important contest
I feel like a lot of people would love to use the best triple fusions we can give them 👀
You made it seem like you were calling me annoying/impatient for saying that I thought it was unnecessary it kinda came off rude rather than a rebuttal which is why I came off defensive
it's cuz I thought you're trying to be offensive with that, I'm really sorry dude
yeah but 24h extended time wont bring that many more votes in i reckon... itd be more impactfull to write youtubers who are currently playing this to tell their fans they shoudl visit this discord and vote for their favourites
Same here, sorry
yeah but 24h extended time wont bring that many more votes in i reckon... itd be more impactfull to write youtubers who are currently playing this to tell their fans they shoudl visit this discord and vote for their favourites
That could also work
that would get a lot more people in the community
probably nobody big
all I found a month ago was some german and spanish dudes
I found it from herovoltsy
