in paint.net, the option that comes up when you save a png that says choose bit depth, if i click 8-bit does it make it 8-bit truecolour and therefore viable for the sprite submissions?

In the art submission stage, if i ask another member to create a picture for it, who submits it as their final submission? Would i need permission from the artist?

The artist should submit the work. If they credit you as a key collaborator, then both of you can be credited with the submission. But the artist should be the person who makes the submission posts. Otherwise, people could easily steal art and claim they "have permission from the artist". The artist needs to make the submission, that way we know there is artist permission, at a minimum. Any additional credit needs to be explicitly granted by the artist.

um... On the CAP subsite, there's a gallery for the artwork submitted for each cap, but there's no page for Krillowatt or Voodoom. Are there people working on this?

That's the to-do list. They are currently updating the gallery for CAP 10. It will be done when DJD gets to it.

Why is the CAP tournament LNTs not posted? It's already Saturday, so was there no LNT yesterday? Is it postponed/canceled or something?

firecape · Aug 14th, 2010, 3:13:45 PM

I'm pretty sure they have been canceled.

tennisace · Aug 14th, 2010, 6:32:43 PM

They have been cancelled. We're coming up with a format for the finals, which will feature the top 8 players in points. Stay tuned!

Helios · Aug 18th, 2010, 9:03:06 AM

During the complete movepool poll, would it be possible to use 'event' moves in order to restrict the possible moveset of a CAP?

Rising_Dusk · Aug 18th, 2010, 10:24:39 AM

Yes, it is possible and allowed, but it has never been done before.

Mijumaru · Aug 20th, 2010, 2:58:03 AM

how do i enter with my own art/sprites?

Rising_Dusk · Aug 20th, 2010, 10:28:43 AM

You cannot for this CAP, as those stages are over. For the next CAP, you would wait for the "Art Submissions" and "Sprite Submissions" stages and post them there.

The Other Doug · Aug 20th, 2010, 10:42:51 PM

Now that Pokedex entries are back in the CAP making process, will Arghonaut, Kitsunoh, Cyclohm, Colossoil, and Kilowatt get their own dex entries?

Yes, after this CAP.

pkmn-taicho321 · Aug 27th, 2010, 3:55:50 AM

during the next cap could we have someone hop on the facebook page and give us some updates? I tend to miss the beginnings of certain discussions and get a bit intimidated, feeling like I can't possibly look over all these posts without missing something that going to be scrutinized about my opinion/ argument. Of course sometimes I'm at work and there is no helping this, but I was just wondering.

Why not just browse the forums? Or subscribe the threads you want to your email? I do not think facebook is the apprpriate method to reviewing CAP updates and changes.

Anyone know when the starting of the CAP12 process is going to be?

Probably within the next month or so. The latest CAP is currently under going playtesting which has about a week left before it ends.

Angel Diva · Aug 28th, 2010, 11:30:23 AM

Are most of the CAP Pokemon single-stage evolutions? I see that Voodoom evolves from what looks like Doug's avatar (what's it's name?) Could somebody list out the evolutionary stages for the CAP Pokemon? Thanks

LouisCyphre · Aug 28th, 2010, 12:03:35 PM

The evolutionary stage of most CAPs isn't defined - it's assumed that whatever prevolutions they have are either weaker versions of the same, or that they have the same competitive viability as, say, Feebas. This is to avoid any CAP prevolutions from becoming viable Pokemon in their own right; i.e. having made two Pokemon in a single CAP cycle.

Lil Niglet · Aug 28th, 2010, 3:54:17 PM

Sorry if this has been asked yet but, how do you download the CAP pokemon sprites?

Infiltrator · Aug 28th, 2010, 4:58:51 PM

The CAP Sprites could be downloaded here.

Bloodline14 · Aug 28th, 2010, 6:13:54 PM

If my brother and I have done some of our own custom pokemon, is there any way we could submit our pokemon for approval? (with some editing to movepools, base stats, abilities, typing, or whatever needs done)

Well that's not how a CAP is decided or created. A created Pokemon is created through a community effort and a specific process, for more info you can check this out.
