Hooray for wifi in the hotel room!

Being a biology expert myself, I just realized too. Lol. But a bacteriophage attack bacteria, so you know, it should be the second stage.

Yay! Energy's back! Sorta'...

Have you seen our progress over in Winder?

Energy Storm · Dec 29th, 2010, 2:08:22 AM

Move over Jaws, we've just unleashed two deadly marine predators!

Scimishark was created based on this analysis I made:

Albinoloon · Dec 29th, 2010, 8:18:57 AM

Those are great! Keep it up! :D

ToastTyrant13 · Dec 29th, 2010, 10:32:27 AM

Those are nice! Can I pick the gourd? And then I'll have that shark/baracuda to smack my rival.

Energy Storm · Jan 9th, 2011, 4:24:34 PM

And I am back with one of my favorite Pokemon in this region, as well as one that, if it were real, would shape the metagame like Salamence did. Meet the Spiritomb/Rotom/Red Gyarados of the region: Arawana!

Albinoloon · Jan 9th, 2011, 4:43:27 PM

You're back! Arawana really confusing me, is that protrusion from the face a tounge, are those things on its back wings, and the pose is a little awkward. Otherwise, a good sprite. :)

Energy Storm · Jan 9th, 2011, 8:17:08 PM

Those protrusions are supposed to be barbels, like in this picture of an arowana: http://www.wuan.org/photos/arowana-img_8163.jpg

Albinoloon · Jan 9th, 2011, 8:34:35 PM

Oh, I've seen arowana, (and actually like tham a lot) and I didn't notice them! :) lol

Energy Storm · Jan 9th, 2011, 8:43:56 PM

Arowanas are my favorite fish! That's where I got the idea.

Albinoloon · Jan 9th, 2011, 9:01:47 PM

Yay! Arowanas! lol

I still think that's not the best pose for it though, but I like the concept. :)

Energy Storm · Jan 9th, 2011, 10:03:42 PM

Hmmm...can you think of a better pose? I chose this one since I wanted to incorporate the long, serpentine body of the Arawana into as much space as possible, so I made it diagonal.

Albinoloon · Jan 10th, 2011, 8:09:16 AM

I think this can answer some questions. lol

1.- The purple eye symbilizes royalty, because it's a dragon
2.- I placed the barbles pn the top of the face like tha arowana's
3.- I gave it the head of an arowana with spikes protruding out beacuse spkes are awesome :) lol
4.- I gave it fins that complement each other
5.- Gave it ragged fins
6.- Removed the skin on the tail because it looks strange
7.- I gave the serpentine pose to emphasize its majesty and grace
8.- Please don't use this outline because it's pretty small. lol

Nothing harsh intended, I hope it helps! :)

Energy Storm · Jan 10th, 2011, 6:03:19 PM

Hm, I like numbers 1, 2, and 7. I personally prefer not-so-ragged fins to make it seem more graceful and majestic as opposed to brutally dangerous. And the skin on the tail is the tail fin. :P

Albinoloon · Jan 10th, 2011, 6:29:31 PM

Oh, ok, I hope I helped. :)

Energy Storm · Jan 17th, 2011, 2:38:59 PM

Man I'm slow. Anyways, added the greatly-anticipated No Guard Zap Cannon user, based off of the atomic structure. Loon, I'll get those changes implemented in Arawana, but I'm still trying to figure out how to put them in.

Albinoloon · Jan 17th, 2011, 2:47:35 PM

Just a personal thing, but I think it would look a bit better if it were /yellow/dark blue, it kinda looks like a grass type. Just me. :P

Energy Storm · Feb 18th, 2011, 12:34:53 AM

Whew it's been a while since I've updated. School and spriting don't go very well together.

But first off, I'd like to say that I have implemented Albino's changes into Photron. So here it is:

Secondly, I'm going to completely redo Arawana. It doesn't look sleek enough for me, and really deviates from that dragon-fish feel.

And finally, I've added the in-game counterparts to Sabracuda and Scimishark. Dive is going to be an HM in Midori, and we're gonna make good use of it!

Albinoloon · Feb 18th, 2011, 7:28:18 AM

I like both of the sprites (a lot), but the evo would seem better if you made it a gulper eel.

Energy Storm · Feb 18th, 2011, 1:23:00 PM

Um, it is a gulper eel...

It has that hinged mouth, eyes on tip of its snout, and the lure on its tail...what else does it look like? Just curious.

Albinoloon · Feb 18th, 2011, 1:57:37 PM

Looks like some sea snake...

I would pronounce the mouth much more if it's a gulper eel. Maybe like the one in the picture. :P

Energy Storm · Feb 22nd, 2011, 12:55:55 AM

And since I'm sure the precious few of you who actually bother to look at this thread are sick of water types, here's some Rock/Psychics for you, Nummulight and Sclerlight. Just messin' with some eccentric shading for those two.

Sclerlight was particulary aggravating to draw, since at first, I accidentally saved him as JPG, and we all know what happens when you save a sprite as the wrong file type.

LeviLamprey · Feb 22nd, 2011, 1:00:29 AM

Nummulight is so cuuute! I like your gulper eel line in particular. Your 'mons are much more creative than most!

Energy Storm · Feb 22nd, 2011, 1:04:54 AM

Thanks! I really need to stop making two-stage evolutionary lines...

LeviLamprey · Feb 22nd, 2011, 1:26:06 AM

No you don't! Just make static and three-evolution stage lines at the same time!
