not seeing any backgrounds here, just lots of nasty selout.

I'll participate if we can make backgrounds for the individual tiles...

That's the style, selout is part of the pokemon style. BG in these games have always been a shade of white

Just a warning to you, original means you designed and colored it yourself, all by yourself. Original Pokemon there seems like quite the leap in skill, technique and execution.
Challenges are about challenging yourself more than challenging others. For that we have the Gym

To he who asked up there. Pokemon of original nature. Should look like a Pokemon yet not be one. Creativity is key.

Not being a pokeholic myself, I was wondering the same thing. My first idea was for a robot lawnmower: MOWBOT -> MOWBOTNIK -> FLYMOWBOTNIK.
 
But then I figures that people would think I wasn't taking this challenge seriously.

The template may be recolored as one needs. You may change the balls to elemental stones for example. You may recolor the BG say for original gameboy, or gameboy color...Its a template

background needs to be white/orginal gameboy color.  these are sprites, not scenes.

You should edit your previous post instead of making a new one.
 
For the pokemon, it needs more contrast.

IMO, I recon keep it, but make it narrower, so only a couple of pixels wide.

WIP/Possibly Finished-


Brief "story" describing who, where and how-
Apprentimon is nervous, and accidentally spills chemicals evolving him to Experimon, who's now mutated, and not affriad to try mixing chemicals. He eventually learns ways to change his DNA by demand, not accident, hence why when he evolves into Geniumon his image has somewhat changed. Blar blar, that's as bout much I can be bothered making up

Any suggestions (on the art)?

Several things, I'm confused as to why ATinyDot just copy pasted my post instead of pressing the quote button.

And AdrianJensen is quite right, this is a major WIP, I'm aware that my "Pokemon" are quite bland right now, I just wanted to check that it's the right style before continuing (No one has answered BTW)

I never planned on submitting this from the start, as it is far from original and looks nothing like the Pokemon style.

BTW, this piece is far from finished, but I'll likely not finish it.



I might actually make one to enter into the contest if I have enough time.


Sony-type Console

Strong against: Nintendo, and Microsoft-Type Consoles.
Weak against: 9 year olds with too much energy.

I think the first one is fantastic. The colours are perfect and the selout works great. Looking forward to seeing the evolutions finished :)

I would actually remove the lightest highlight for the flesh, because pokemon shading is usually very simple. One or two shades, because their pixel artists were lazy :)

Just thought I'd throw in my progress so far...
 
My line of pokey-mans are based on chimeneas and other furnace type things...so I guess that makes them fire types.
 
I've got some drawings done for he 1st and 3rd forms, but I'm farthest along on the 2nd form.
 
 
2nd forms get no respect - who ever cares about Ivysaur or Wartortle?
 
Anyway, let me know what you think of it before I get too far...

When I was making the sprite, it had a lighter outline to it, but after looking at some of the reference, I noticed that most of the pokemon have a bit darker of an outline than I had thought....
 
Here's the comparisons of the 2 versions, the left, the lighter outline, the middle, the most recent version, and the right is Bronzong, which I have been using as reference so far for this sprite.
 
 
Does the left one look better? I kinda like it the way it is right now, but I'm not sure...
Thanks for the comments! :D
Let me know if there is anything else that you notice :)
