Can't wait to see Cosplay Pikachu finished. But why won't you do Raichu? I thought it was kind of easy to do compared to Typhlosion or Suicune.
I don't really like the XY sprite though, it seems a bit derpy.^Maybe because the Raichu animation is good enough as it is already? No reason to fix what isn't broken, when there is so much bad stuff out there.
Love this animation by the way, but there's one problem: you can't get a Shiny Cosplay Pikachu in-game.Pikachu Cosplay #1 (Belle)
Normal:
Shiny:
1 down, 5 to go (including costumeless). I tried to replicate the animation from in game as accurately as I could.
When it comes time to do costumeless cosplay Pikachu, I'll probably also publish normal male and female forms along with it with the same animation for the sake of consistency.
This is my first time using the Smogon Forums, so hello everyone. I do believe this is the right forum to post this in... though calling these sprites/renders 'pixel art' is a bit of a stretch. :P
For the past few months, someone on The VG Source, who goes by "Random Talking Bush", has been leading the Pokémon X/Y/OR/AS Model Ripping Project. They've ripped 45.4% of Pokémon from X/Y/OR/AS so far as of October 12th, 2015, and more to come. I looked into the project and experimented with the models. In a nutshell, while I was experimenting, I wondered if I could replicate the look of the Pokémon almost exactly how they look in-game, and possibly make custom animations for the X/Y sprites we use on Pokémon Showdown.
So I tried that, and these are the results I've been having so far:

I did this first with my personal favorite Pokémon, Leafeon.

And I did Fennekin next as requested from a friend.

Yes, my computer was acting funny. Anyways if it's possible I'd love it if could make a more aggressive sprite for charizard and it's Mega Evolution Y. Maybe a more flared flame on tail, and movement. It'd be awesome :)
Personally, I think that Charizard and Mega Charizard Y are okay as is, unless you want to request something more specific, like a grounded Charizard similar to this:Will never do (These may change if something about the Pokemon changes, such as a new ability or new promotional art, or if someone provides me with a very convincing argument that their poses can be revised to better fit the Pokemon):
- Charizard/Charizard-Mega-Y
No uh, I'm not sure if you understood her post. She was pointing out that the owner of this thread said they wouldn't do Charizard or Mega Charizard Y in the first post of this thread.Yes, my computer was acting funny. Anyways if it's possible I'd love it if could make a more aggressive sprite
