Wait what's the difference between this thread and the other one? 

If you mean Mega Moemon, it's for a mod that has new pokemon/moemon and their megas.

[toottoot]

@notmudkip0 Got it, thanks! I'll probably stick to posting sprites on this thread then, not too interested in working on Megas just yet and I wish QC were a bit more strict on the other thread.

 

Blissey (palette may be slightly out of sync, also said palette isn't great):

Chansey (these two are really out of sync):

 

Also for good measure, here's Silcoon and Cascoon again.

Edit edit: Also @Moetal are there any starters/high priority 'mons I can work on? Since my motivation to sprite is spotty at best, I think I should be as useful as possible when I'm on a spriting binge.

Words cannot describe how much I hate working on this sprite. Pardon the white strip, that's my mistake.

She remind me of shiro from no game no life.

@toottoot

Try finishing Blaziken. She's the only starter we're still missing.

 

Pick your poison.

Woah, forgot to check this thread.

 

Anyways, Visual Novel had a sandshrew this entire time. Grafted Baby Sandshrew's eyes. im-helping-ralph.jpg

It was one of the four Gen 1 stragglers.

I think we might have a decent loudred to work on. Exploud is nearly maxed out on awesome.

Can someone help and explain how I get it working for my visual boy? please?

okay did that but it wont open and just presents me with a white screen

[Scotticas]

I got it working but now when I get to oak every time he's about to so hello the entire thing restarts me back to the title screen where its charmander and nothing has changed 

[toottoot]

I'm so sorry I know I was supposed to do backsprites and I have 128319032 unfinished sprites but my hand slipped

Lickitung ;u;

 

@Moetal Thanks! I'll try to polish up Blaziken a bit then

 

@Septentrion Something about the palette on the Whismur family still really bothers me though- I blame myself for overcomplicating their concept but the colors look oversaturated and a bit messy together even though I took them directly from the in-game sprites. Not to mention each color only has 2-3 shades to work with. Hence why I have a mild aneurysm every time I work on them.

I try to keep the player in mind when it comes to quality. They hate seeing the worst sprites, but still love the B sprites, even if they can tell that an A sprite is better. I acknowledge the degrees of quality, but many moemon won't ever have an A+ sprite. Progress must be made.

 

Also, I wasn't hoping to be the main quality person in my thread. I might as well just post the Gen 3 sprites I make here

Seem like wrong Firered Rom. Since my project is more technical, I made a readme. The first part applies here:

SET THE SAVE TYPE ON THE EMULATOR BEFORE PLAYING
Under Option>Emulator>Save Type
1)Automatic
2)128k Flash
fixing saves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIhAVH1yMG0

IPS: The ips file must be patch to an existing original FireRed GBA file that should have this filename: 1636 - Pokemon Fire Red (U)(Squirrels).gba

A fake GBA file is on the internet. This has been a source early bugs which. The correct CRC32 hex code is DD88761C for the Fire Red GBA file.

We are not allowed to distribute GBA files.
Lunar IPS is require to patch the GBA into moemon.(It does not automatically create a copy of your Fire Red game).

Yep, that's definitely true! An okay sprite with an interesting design is still more enjoyable to most than one of the older sprites with a uninteresting/plain design. Not trying to judge you or anything. 

 

I just personally prefer stricter QC because it helps me improve my spriting abilities (or lack thereof) faster. Also, sometimes it's easy to put a B sprite in as a placeholder and then completely forget about it (and never end up improving it, even if there's time to make said improvements), and then the poor Moemon is stuck with a B sprite forever. So personally I think it's good to get sprites to at least an A-, where maybe it isn't the most attractive/detailed sprite on the planet, but it's at least anatomically and technically very clean.

And some poor moemon well never get a good sprite no matter how the project is managed.

Ahaha guess that's on me and the other spriters for being kinda slow ^^;;;

Good luck with that. Moemon Emerald needs a super update. I might have to do it myself. It'll be such a big update, it'll need a new name, like Baemon or Milfmon. I don't think there's an ideal name.

 

Also, worked on Latios, but I don't think I'll get him to B sprite level. I do think the recent palette is the key, in case he needs to be redesigned.

The chibi Latios and Latias are still in use.

[Hexoutx]

I need this for unova.

[laGashetaHardcore]

Hello

 

 

[toottoot]

@laGashetaHardcore I like fluffy/spiky hair a little more for her, but that's just me. Maybe science?

 

Changes: widened arms, cleaned up hair a bit, and reduced palette to 14 colors so we have some wiggle room if we want to add more. Also tweaked the palette a bit so that the shadows in the hair would be more noticeable. I attempted to tweak the face but I'm not completely happy with it.

[Moetal]

Softer outlines.
