Okay folks, get ready for everyone's favorite part of CAP - the Art Polls! The design that wins this poll will be CAP19's official art and will serve as the basis for its sprite on Pokemon Showdown! Thanks to all of the artists who submitted work for this step.

This will be a multiple bold vote, which means you vote for as many or as few entries as you like. It is not weighted so order does not matter. Bold your votes and nothing else! A typical vote might look like the following:

First Entry I Like
Second Entry I Like
Third Entry I Like

Any comments that the voter has would go below the votes in non-bold text. Bold text is used to determine what the user's votes are, so none of the supplementary text should be in bold.

CAP uses automated scripts to count votes. For this reason, it is very important for all ballots to be submitted correctly. If you do not compose a legal ballot, your post will be subject to moderation.
  • The scripts count bold words in ballots, so do NOT bold anything in your ballot other than the options you are voting for.
  • Do NOT put any formatting other than bold in your post.
  • Only one option per line.
  • Spelling of options must be EXACTLY correct and must match the spelling listed below.
  • Capitalization and spaces are ignored by the vote counting scripts, but you probably should not depend on it.
Composing a proper ballot is easy. Enter BBCode Edit Mode (the A in the upper right corner). Copy/paste the options directly from the OP to your ballot as plain unbolded text. Delete and/or rearrange the options to suit your preference and the poll type. Bold your vote text using bold tags or re-enter rich text mode, highlight your vote and click B. Spelling or formatting errors may spoil your ballot, so be careful!

Please post only your votes in this thread. Do not respond to other posts, or your posts will be moderated and you may be warned. You are allowed to say whatever you like in relation to your vote at the bottom of your post, but please do not look to begin a discussion. New to this CAP, please refrain from posting images or links to images in your votes. Keep those comments to #cap on IRC.

-----------------

If your art is missing from the poll, you have probably either not made a Final Submission post or have broken one of our rules. Check your submission post or check the first post in the submissions thread (the one dutifully maintained by Quanyails) for notes on illegalities.

The following designs were disqualified from the poll for the corresponding reasons:

Knirp - Incomplete outlines
Mektar - Transparent background and missing outlines
Bird - Transparent background

-----------------

This vote will run for 48 hours.

Concept:
Yilx said:
Name: Einherjar ~Acta Est Fabula~

Description: A Pokemon that dissuades your opponent from fainting it, or can even leave it's presence on the field felt even after it faints.

Justification: When a Pokemon faints, it's usually thought of as the battle having gotten down to a 5-6. However, we've yet to discover if a Pokemon can leave a lasting impression on the battle even after having fainted; be it through moves like Healing Wish and Destiny Bond, placing hazards that the opponent can't remove as their removal has been taken care of, or by leaving an opponent's key member weakened and/or taken out.

Questions To Be Answered:
  • How can a Pokemon leave a long-lasting effect on the rest of the battle with just it's moves?
  • How the hell is it different from simply ramming a sacrificial martyr into your opponent's team and hoping it punches holes in it?
  • Building on the previous question, is it possible to build this Pokemon as a defensive threat rather than a "Glass Cannon"?
  • Is it even possible for a Pokemon to leave a lasting effect on on the battle, even after it faints?
  • Could changing your opponent's way of thinking even be plausible? From, "I need to take CAP X out!", to, "Damn, if I take CAP X out, I'll be in trouble...!"

Lots of great entries, but I really want to vote for nice clean designs without too much extraneous on them, and with art that conveys them well. Golurkyourself's really has stolen my heart.

Favorites:

Golurkyourself: Mongolian death worms. We need those in Pokemon.

Mos-Quitoxe: Creative origin, aesthetically coherent, doesn't look like anything Pokemon's already done, badass. Overall a fantastic design.

tea_and_blues: Fun take, actually, and it still makes sense given the multiple-personality-disorder kit we gave it.

paintseagull: Another great last-minute take on CAP19--great take on an oil spill mon. STORM DRAIN!

Hollymon: This is the closest thing I've seen to a Portuguese Man-O-War so far. I'll vote for it on that basis.

DougJustDoug: Creative, fits the kit, great way to include Storm Drain.

bugmaniacbob: so beautiful
