Your Sprite Art / omg shaymin did a sprite
July 28, 2018, 00:03
hey yall!

so for a pokemon go discord server i'm in for my local area, they're currently holding a contest for some cute things and the premise is... design your own Eeveelution! So I went with a Flying type. It took me approximately 2 hours to gather sprites, throw them together, then sprite over after resizing and rotating to make the following. It's been quite some time since I've done any spriting on this level, but I felt like sharing anyway. So, presenting my creation Azureon (Azure from bright blue in colour like a cloudless sky even though it has no blue lol)



I used parts from Jolteon, Pidgeotto, Pidgey, Swablu, Archen, Rufflet and Braviary.

That's right, now you can trade! But you need to be friends first. You get gifts that you can send to friends too, and those gifts contain 7km eggs that hatch.... Alolan Pokémon!!!

Random Randomness / Earthquake in South Wales
February 17, 2018, 17:51
At 2:31:04 today there was a magnitude 4.4 (ish) earthquake at 11km depth just north of Swansea. Did you feel it?
I was sat on the couch when it shook in a sideways one-two motion. I thought it was one of my dogs kicking the couch in their sleep, but neither were close enough for it to have been one of them. My mum and brother were both upstairs and felt it too.


Here is a link to the USGS site, so you can see that I'm not crazy.

I'm curious to see what everyone has got! Cause I'm an adult now my haul ain't half as big as it was when I was but a wee tyke, but I got everything I asked for which is sick!


I got a new 2DS XL (the Pokéball one!) with Ultra Sun, which I asked for. Some gaming headphones for my PC because my last ones conked it, and I'd also asked for them! I also got Krispy Kreme lip gloss, a Pokémon shirt, Harry Potter plush dressing gown, squishy Mario red mushroom, a silver bangle and a "Happiness is finding free wifi" thing to hang on my wall.

Games General / Gen 3 is coming to PoGo
October 19, 2017, 00:49



soooooon my pretties, soon

Read the full article about the Event on the Chester Chronicle website!

So if you still play PoGo, you most likely saw the news about an event in Chicago, also happening at the same time! Which not a lot of us can attend for Obvious™ reasons. However...



If any of you UK PKMNers have ever been to the historic City of Chester, you have likely walked down that street! I walk down in practically every week playing Niantic's other mobile game with my mum (and also playing PoGo at the same time, cause I gotta farm them pokeballs man).

Chester's Big Heritage worked with Niantic to organise this event, which has seen a TON of new Pokéstops and Gyms cropping up (which is SICK even though there are some on top of each other which leads to hilarious screenshots). The historic Chester Castle is also opening up for the first time in eight TWENTY years, coinciding with this event.

I know American PKMNers are likely unable to go, but UK ones!! I know it's short notice (I mean to get this up earlier but I forgot. I'm terrible), but this is the first event for PoGo in the UK, and it's not in London (thank GOD lol). I live very close to Chester, so for me this is Super

Random Randomness / sky broadband
July 10, 2017, 00:12
a general question to the room - to those of yall who have sky broadband as your ISP, have you been experiencing garbage an insane amount of bottlenecking in the past month or so??? we're paying for fibre optic and getting speeds of less than 1MB (fibreoptic is supposed to be like, 20MBs)

Gaming / Nintendo Switch
October 20, 2016, 23:13
First look


So I know it's a bit premature, but I'm really excited for this. It was hinted to be a hybrid portable console a while back but I didn't really follow the rumours so much, but the NX, now known as the Switch (presumably because it can switch between console and handheld) will (hopefully) be landing March 2017.


Thoughts?

Gaming / Miitomo is here!
March 31, 2016, 22:16
Nintendo's first foray into mobile gaming is here! Miitomo is not dissimilar to the 3DS game, Tomodachi Life, except it's more Tamagotchi than Tomodachi.


It was released today (31st of March), and so far I've spent about 10 minutes of it. As usual, the facial recognition and mii writing software of Nintendo still sucks absolute butts



Unfortunately like most mobile games these days it's essentially pay to win - the more mii coins you have, the more stuff you can buy, the quicker you get through the "game"


It's not much, but it's pretty cutesy. Not bad for Nintendo's first.

EDIT: The inevitable QR code

So with Super Mystery Dungeon's release there are now an incredible 10 games in the series (Red, Blue, Darkness, Time, Sky, the 3 WiiWare games no one talks about cause it's only available in Japanese, Infinity and now Super), I want to know what is the best game in the series in your opinion.


For me it's gotta be Time/Darkness and I guess Sky - Blue was pretty fun and it was the first one I played - but the story of TDS really pulled me in and I gotta admit, back in 08 when I was a spritely 15 year old I actually cried the first time I completed it. And I completed it I think 4 or 5 times over because I just loved the story that much and now I wish I had the patience to look out the game cartridge to play it all again :')


Having played a bit of Infinity and Super I'm not enjoying them to the same extent as I did TDS - and honestly the 3D sprites don't look as nice as the old 2D ones back in TDS did. The controls don't feel as nice (even though they're probably the same lmao) and the stories fall a bit flat for me :(
#17
so I am doing something for a class and as I can't find the two guys I am working with on Facebook I can't get many opinions on what looks best so... why not turn to you. You guys know what sprites are right.





so the preset is 80s (hence the limited palette haha more like stop), and we're making a fake kickstarter for an 80s themed game. the player is trying to reach taxi to get to a club and are confronted by zombies. probably. it's still in the works, but this is what i have so far


so yeah. pick ur fave. critique. help me.

Games General / Pokemon GO!
September 10, 2015, 08:45
So I've just been reduced to a tearful bloody blob because of a trailer for an iPhone and Android app - the app that we have been waiting for for years

here it is - on the official Pokemon Japan YouTube

I cannot put into words how absolutely excited I am for this. I am so ready yet also so not.
#19
So Microsoft are doing this interesting thing with this site http://how-old.net/


but it has some kinks. It thinks I am either 16 or 26 and there is no in between. The only picture of me it's gotten right is a picture of me when I was 4.

Random Randomness / The eclipse!!
March 20, 2015, 08:11
Okay so if you haven't already heard it's probably too late and I forgot to post this til now (like, ten minutes before it starts lmaooo) but there is an eclipse today that will reach totality north of the Faroe Islands! So sorry US folks, you'll have to catch a stream or something!


Currently it's very bright at home, I just got blinded by thesun opening my curtains and I'm incredibly pumped for this to start. I also may be skipping class just to see it lmao

Random Randomness / How to deal with joint pain?
February 21, 2015, 23:34
Ok so i'm sitting here making leedle noises right now cause of chronic knee pain and i don't wanna take painkillers, and I'm wondering how you guys deal with joint pain? Any sort really; growth, sports injuries, just general ache. I doubt many of you have arthritis and can share your chronic joint pain stories but if you can, then go ahead!


I'll probably complain a lot in this thread too as I get tested for arthritis lol

Role Play / [C] The Whisperers [Ad][P][Pa]
September 08, 2014, 19:07
Long ago, before the items used to obtain Pokémon had even been a twinkle in a scientists eye, befriending Pokémon was a rare and celebrated gift that very few were ever born with. They were known as the Whisperers - they couldn't exactly understand Pokémon, per sé, but to normal people, the Whisperers could essentially speak to Pokémon.

It was rare for a village or town to have more than one Whisperer at a time - when the abilities manifested themselves, if there was already a Whisperer and apprentice in town, they would be sent to another town without an apprentice. Their job was to keep the peace between Pokémon and humans - which often proved to be more difficult than it sounded. Wars between the two was rampant, and even if there was peace in one place, there would be war in another.

You are a Whisperer - a young one, apprenticed to an older Whisperer of your town. You have recently befriended your first Pokémon - one who left their home to come and live with you. It is a great honour to have a Pokémon become your partner - some Whisperers do not befriend their first for many years, but you, in your teens, have proven to be a proficient Whisperer.

But there is a threat on the horizon. Your Mentor has left for a week - something urgent, they say, but they do not tell you anything else. You are left to look after your home and the people who live there, but the rumours come. Reports of your Mentor's death, of the deaths of all the Whisperers apart from a few apprentices who were left in their homes. You are one of them. It now falls to you to meet up with several other apprentices to figure out what happened to your Mentors, and what danger lies on the horizon.




To sum up, you are a special kind of human. A Whisperer has a special connection with Pokémon - you can read their body language and they yours, so you can have basic conversations with them. Your Partner has a deeper connection - almost psychic - and that connects you. Whisperers rarely befriend more than ten Pokémon in their lifetime (meaning you'll get to befriend more later on in the RP!!).

Your Mentor, the one who is supposed to teach you how to properly read Pokémon and stop fighting between humans and Pokémon, is dead. Reports of a terrible war far to the west have reached your town. One apprentice has sent you a letter - to meet in the port of Summerlake to head west and find out who killed all the other Whisperers.




Form!
Name: First Last
Age: 13-18
Gender: Obvious
Appearance: A nice sharp paragraph. Height, weight, body shape, hair, skin and eye colour, and what they wear. Clothes should be similar to the Elizabethan era - but Whisperers tend to wear trousers, just so you are aware ladies~
Personality: another sharp paragraph please dears <3
Partner: A basic Pokémon - not a rare or a legendary, or you'll get booted in the butt. (try to have a Pokémon that matches your town, so no ice Pokémon from the southern plains or fire Pokémon from the icy tundra!)
Town: Choose from those listed please!!
Starter Post: Either receiving the letter from the anonymous Whisperer telling you to meet in Summerlake to cross said lake to follow your mentor, or arriving at the rendevouz point in Summerlake with your Partner

If you are stuck for Partner ideas, don't be afraid to ask me! <3 Have fun, stay loose and let's RP!!

Ok so, as we all know most of the boards here have been a lot less active than they used to be, RP included. So I put the question forward to you... what are you looking for?


Often it can be hard coming up for an idea for an RP anyway - what is "hip" with the kids these days? Will your idea even draw in any attention? Is it too hard a concept to grasp? Will it attract the attention of both old and young rpers?


This is also probably to help those who want to RP (such as myself) but are really struggling to find a genre of RP that is currently popular with the kids these days. What I want to know is what you guys want to RP - you can list what you like or discuss it more vividly - more Pokémon or real life? Less Action more Adventure? Literate or not so much?


Feel free to put forth any ideas you think would be helpful towards pushing some life in to this board.

The Metagame Spriters!

Hi guys! So, most of you have probably seen the Metagame sprites, made by myself and many other spriters on the site! To try and shake some activity in to the Spriting Board, it's been decided (sort of, I guess) to continue where we left off during the launch of Gen 5! That's right, it was that long ago. Yeah, I can't believe it's been two years either.
So, some wee guidelines for you hoping to make some of the sprites we use here (taken directly from the last topic!)
- 78x78
- PNG
- Transparent - but don't worry if you can't do it! Someone else will for you!
- Named as the National Dex number, followed by an s for the shiny (eg "001" and "001s" for Bulbasaur)
- Not based on fanart or Sugimori art. Scratches are encouraged, and TCG and animé traces are allowed. Sugimori art is okay if it's a nifty pose, but generally they're very dull, and everyone's seen them before. Spice it up!
- A portrait. Not a full-body sprite, and not a closeup of the eye. If you're confused, look at our current batch for ideas!
- Try to steer away from too much dithering. If you don't know what it is, here is an example of it.

WHAT'S BEEN DONE? check the list!

Don't be offended if some of the more advanced spriters touch up your sprite - mistakes can be made and it's easy to fix. It may include things such as shading, colour errors, lining errors, etc. You may also be asked to edit it yourself if you can.
