The Workshop

Requester: Jahkem
For: Ultimate League Championship II
Art Direction: Slowbro has been the mascot for this tournament for years prior to it being brought to Smogon. I used AI to get an idea of what a banner for Smogon would look like here with the words “Ultimate League Championship” in the banner somewhere. Although, I give you, the artist, free creative direction. I am easy to please. I’m still talking with Monotype mods on when the signups will go up. Projected to be after the current Monotype Winter Premier has ended. So, about a month give or take.

EDIT: being worked on by DaWolfKid

Requester: FlamPoke (FlamPoke)
For: RarelyUsed Teambuilding Competition
Art Direction: Am hoping for relatively straightforward Teambuilding Competition art, with the idea being similar to the images hidden below. The relevant mons I'd like to have illustrated are Slither Wing, Suicune, Fezandipiti, Maushold, and/or Slowbro depending on which direction the artist would like to go.

This is done now!
 
Requester: Arya
For: YouTube Roomintro background image
Art Direction:
Hello, we need a Roomintro background image! This means it must fit its sizes.
We want a Pokémon Mystery Dungeon main-menu postcardy style, showcasting pokémon and environment in a balanced way. Include any pokemon of your likings, but if it can have a slowpoke and/or Porygon Z, it's better. No letters, no writing. Only the drawing itself (well ofc the signature of the artist can be there, but they will be credited too in the Roomintro itself)

Thanks a lot!

Requester: zastra & Ember Celica
Tournament name: 35 Pokes Premier League
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): Player + Manager Signups on 13th February (in NDAM subforum)
Art Direction: Something with Yanmega, Zebstrika, and Seaking, with maybe a Politoed almost unnoticeably in the background (Text should be 35 Pokes Premier League / 35PL / 35 Pokes PL, whichever looks better)

thank u very much in advance!
 
Requester: Amaranth on behalf of the RBY section
Tournament name: RBY World Cup (last year's thread here)
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): March 3rd, 2025
Art Direction: A trophy with the label of RBY World Cup (not fussed about specific shape if you have a cool design in mind, but maybe something resembling or inspired by the FIFA World Cup trophy could be neat). The trophy has an additional base which features the mascots of the past winners - the German Rhydon and a Slowbro whose shell/tail is colored with the motifs of the US flag. (Ideally you are also available to add further winner mascots to this design as the years pass, but we could always get other artists to help in the future)
:totodiLUL: Good

Requester: Gimmicky, goldmason, UT, Vertigo
Tournament name: OMPL XIII
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): April 27th
Art Direction: Last two banners can be found here and here; some mon ideas include Scream Tail, Iron Boulder, and Iron Crown for SV specific mons, and Regieleki, Mega Audino, Mew, Zapdos, and Magearna as historically good mons, but we can be quite flexible.

Requester: Voltix
For: Doubles LC 2025 Circuit
Art Direction: The art is mainly intended to be the banner of every tour of the circuit. I would like to give the artist full freedom about the concept, but ideally the art should feature Doubles LC Pokemon like Misdreavus, Stantler, Elekid, Vullaby, Mudbray, Grookey, etc... any other pokemon from the Tier 2 or even Tier 3 of the Viability Ranking (link given) should work as well. Any doubts or suggetions, you can DM me or contact me on discord (voltix#2487)
Needed for: Ideally for March 10th if possible, or any day of that week at least.

Making one post for three separate requests to not spam the thread, it absolutely doesn't need to be the same person doing all three!

Requester: Hiro' on behalf of RoA Staff
Tournament name: ORAS Grand Slam
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): February 3rd
Art Direction: This is a tournament based on (at least) five different tiers from Gen 6; I was thinking about using Primal Groudon, Mienfoo and Pawniard as mascots but it's not a hard requirement. For the record, other Pokémon with significant usage are Xerneas, Yveltal, Flygon, Salamence-Mega, Venusaur, Slowking, Diancie, Drapion, etc. The text can be "ORAS Slam" if it's easier to fit; everything else is left to artist discretion.

Requester: Hiro' on behalf of RoA Staff
Tournament name: BW Grand Slam
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): February 17th
Art Direction: This is a tournament based on five different tiers from Gen 5; preferably, I would like Genesect to be the mascot. For the record, other Pokémon with significant usage are Garbodor, Druddigon, Qwilfish, Monferno, Seismitoad, Durant, Golurk etc. The text can be "BW Slam" if it's easier to fit; everything else is left to artist discretion.

Requester: Hiro' on behalf of RoA Staff
Tournament name: GSC Grand Slam
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): February 24th
Art Direction: This is a tournament based on five different tiers from Gen 2; preferably, I would like Croconaw to be the mascot. For the record, other Pokémon with significant usage are Snorlax, Mewtwo, Magby, Hitmontop, Venomoth, Cloyster, Weezing, Bayleef, Onix etc. The text can be "GSC Slam" if it's easier to fit; everything else is left to artist discretion.

Thank you!
Just a quick update to give links to relevant threads where the art is used for archival purposes on your end! (Will update with GSC when it comes)

Requester: Rarelyme
Tournament name: RUPL XII
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): February 24th (sorry I know it's tight but it's also fine to us if it's done anytime during that week so Feb 24-28th)
Art Direction: We would basically like an updated version of the last one with Pokemon that represent our different generations better so keep Registeel and Flygon but replace all the others by Zapdos-Galar (can also be Slowbro or Cyclizar), Venusaur (can also be Scrafty), Druddigon (can also be Durant, Moltres or Sceptile) and finally Rapidash (can also be Glalie or Raichu). Feel free to pm me if this isn't clear. Hopefully this isn't too much work, thanks in advance Smeargle's Studio you guys rule.

Late but can take this.
 
Requester: Seed Sower
Tournament Name: RU Homefield Advantage
Projected Deadline (Sign-Up thread goes live): March 3rd
Art Direction: Since this tour involves all generations from SV to BW RU, I think it would make sense to include some of the most relevant RU mons from each generation. I thought a Last Supper-style design could be kinda fun to represent all the different generations. Some example mons that might work for this could be (doesn't have to be all of them): Flygon, Registeel, Druddigon, Krookodile, Fezandipiti, Cyclizar, Roserade, Slowbro, Reuniclus, Sneasel. Thanks in advance!
