Yeah, what it says on the tin, really. Art-related things can also be asked, of course, though if you're asking about future projects, you can find a portion of that here.

Also, bear in mind that I may get a biiiit opinionated on some things, though I am (usually) up to being corrected depending on the thing and how you explain it and all that. Also, of course, I have the right to not answer anything if it's too personal.

But anyway, let's do this.

Previous Poll (NOW CLOSED): http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6109884/

And so here we are, finally. We have completed our character. To say it was not what I had imagined at all is an understatement.

So to sum:

Setting: Kalos Café
Pokedex Gender/Color classification: Male/Blue
Generation: 5/Unova (Black/White/Black2/White2)
Species: Seismitoad

Needless to say, I'm pleasantly surprised! Not bad, folks!


Now I can't give an exact date on when I'll draw him (note it might not even be a 'him', but we'll see!), but keep an eye out just the same.

Thanks again for indulging in my little experiment, folks!

Previous Poll (now CLOSED): http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6102893/

And the results from the third poll WERE:

Generation 1 11111
Generation 2 1111
Generation 3 1111
Generation 4 11
Generation 5 1111111
Generation 6 111111
Legendary Wildcard 111111

And so our character will come from the mysterious region of Unova~

We're almost there now, folks! Now we have finally whittled down the choices to these final Pokemon. These will get interesting, since my plan after this is to draw the top three winners as characters befitting the setting. Depending how things go, I'll either keep some of them or offer them up as Adoptables ($10 sound fair to you?), with the bonus that if you buy the adoptable, you get a discount for one standard commission including the character. This of course depends on the actual results, of course.

But until then, here we go:

1) Oshawott
2) Dewott
3) Samurott
4) Panpour
5) Simipour
6) Roggenrola
7) Boldore
8) Gigalith
9) Woobat
10) Swoobat
11) Tympole
12) Palpitoad
13) Seismitoad
14) Sawk
15) Tirtouga
16) Carracosta
17) Ducklett
18) Karrablast
19) Eelektrik
20) Eelektross
21) Elgyem
22) Deino
23) Zweilous
24) Hydreigon
25) Thundurus (includes both formes)

Due to the sheer number of contestants here, I need you guys to give me *three* votes, no more or less. And yes, you may put more than one vote on your favorite. As stated before, the top three winners will be drawn at a later date after the poll ends.

Poll will close on Monday, Sept. 15. Let's do this! And don't forget the poll for helping me make an Original Character, too!

YES, YES I KNOW ABOUT THE NEWS.

I AM, INDEED, VERY HAPPY ABOUT IT.

IN FACT, I AM DRAWING SOMETHING REGARDING IT AS WE SPEAK.

IT MIGHT NOT BE EXACTLY WHAT YOU GUYS WANT BUT TRUST ME WHEN I SAY, IT'S SOMETHING I NEED TO DRAW.

Anyway, yeah, that's it. Now get your buts over to the previous journal and get to voting for things.

(Yes, there are some cross-generation pokemon placed in the wrong categories. Semi-intentional, as some fall in the same "family" and in most cases, the base/pre-evo form takes priority, not counting those where only the evolution is available.)

So here's what we're doing now: TWO VOTES. These will go to your favorite Generation OR the Wildcard category. You may put one vote on two of your favorite categories OR put two votes on just one category of your choice. DO NOT VOTE FOR INDIVIDUAL POKEMON, please. That's just for reference's sake so you know what you might end up with if you vote for that category.

Poll will close on Saturday the 13th. We're almost done, folks, so let's do it! And don't forget the poll for helping me make an Original Character, too!

Help make an Original Character: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6095687/
Previous Poll (now CLOSED): http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6088511/
Next Poll: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6102893/

And the results from the first poll WERE:

Poke-DJ:111111111 9
Soccer:11111 5
AIRLOCK'D:11111111 8
Cafe:1111111111 10

Meaning "Kalos Café" is the winner! Though man, look how close that was! Going to have to do something with those other settings another time...

But for now, let us now focus on what species we're going to decide for this! To do that, we first have to narrow down our choices. First up, let's pick Color, the same ones used in all official Pokedex entries for classification purposes:

Color choices:

1) Red
2) Blue
3) Yellow
4) Green
5) Black
6) Brown
7) Purple
8) Gray
9) White
10) Pink

Next we'll go by Gender classification. Note this is *NOT* for deciding the character's actual sexual identity, but for further narrowing down our options. For example, if we chose Female, that would remove the lists of pokemon that only include Male Only or Genderless.

Gender choices:

A) Female
B) Male
C) Genderless


For this round, please vote for 1 for each category. The winner will be decided on Wednesday, Sept. 10. And don't forget the poll for helping me make an Original Character, too!

Next Poll: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/6095702/


You know, it has been a while I really make a new character, plus I wanna do something simple that you folks can help out with.

The character will be made using one of my premade (and eternally incomplete) settings in mind, though depending how things may go, I'll either keep them to draw in future pics or offer them up as an adoptable for their owner to use however they wish. So let's get started, shall we?


To begin, let's pick a setting. This won't affect the species itself (with exceptions, as explained below), but will determine the type of character we'll be designing in general. For a more in-depth explanation of each setting, GO HERE.

Settings up to vote:

1) "Poke-DJ" (Restriction: None). Character examples: Trebel the Chatot, Skyflower the Shaymin, Voxy the Whismur, etc.

2) "Unova Soccer League" (Restriction: Main cast must be from Unova/Black and White/B2W2 generation, rival teams can be anything else). Character examples: Pandora the Scolipede, Inka the Sceptile, Victor the Victini

3) "AIRLOCK'D, aka the Underground Pitfighting Setting" (Restriction: None). Character examples: Anji the Mawile, Long the Pikachu

4) "Kalos Café" (Restriction: None, though Kalos/X and Y generation preferred). Character examples: Jicky the Spritzee, Gustave the Furfrou


Please vote for 2 settings. The winner will be decided on Sunday, Sept. 7.

Any questions about the character or this idea may be made in the comments. Have fun! And don't forget about helping me design an OC!

Posted this last night on kompy, did not post here sooner because I had already did more than enough spamming with my Still-Unnamed Pokemorph Setting Thing that I doubt only the most devoted of you even care for (which you can read and comment about here if you so choose). Also not all of this is pokemon-themed so it might not be of interest to some of you :P

First up, Obligatory Adoptables Reminder:

And finally, Obligatory Plain Regular Commission Reminder(Also Pokemon-friendly!):

http://www.furaffinity.net/commissions/kompy/ <--REMEMBER ME, EDDIE? WHEN I KIIIILLED YOU BROTHER, I TALKED...JUST...LIKE...THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS! (>_(>

...I....may not been in the best of minds the night I originally wrote this...

(apologies for spam, this is the last of it for today, I swear)

So this came to me while talking to folks in the Pokemon Stereotypes topic from a while ago, as well as something that I've been noticing as of late, usually with new watchers. Many of you know the story by now (and will note it to be vague at points, which is intentional), but I need to tell this quick summary before we can get to the real topic of this journal.

Yes, I used to be in PCA (short for Poke-Combat Academy), an Alternate Universe Pokemorph, themed High School setting created by ebonyleopard alongside a few other artists, myself included. It started off as a simple exchange of drawings of our pokemorph characters interacting -- in fact, this one was the one that started it all, after some talking with EL himself -- and it kind of snowballed from there. As interest grew for the setting from both myself and others, I made the ceegee account to house my future Poke-art and started to exchange ideas with others who also showed interest in the setting, some good and bad. Rules were attempted to be placed there for the sake of consistency, but as many saw "rules" as another word for "boring" this did not really stick. Add the fact that there was little to no way to really *enforce* said rules in the grand scheme of things and you have yourself a big steaming pile of chaos to put up with, both good and ill. Ultimately, drama among the masses led to PCA's eventual downfall as a community-based setting, though there are a few stragglers here and there that still try to keep the name alive, even though PCA has long since stopped being about Pokemorphs in High School a long, long time ago.

That said, many of the *ideas* that flowed about during that era still hold some merit, at least enough for me to work with with my *own* separate setting for my own pokemorphs. Said setting has no name of its own, though one joke-idea that came to me was to name it "IChooseU", after my old, ancient idea for a AU High School/College Pokemorph setting that I had developed during my own High School days that never went past a few sketches before EL's idea came along and revived my want to do more with it. The sketches in question (which I warn were done when I was in High School and back when Pokemon Red/Blue were still new) can be found here, here, here and here. While most of those characters never really took off, a few of them did get some new life thanks to the PCA, for which I am grateful for. Will I ever revive the others? That is a topic for another day.

Anyway, as the two points I wanted to make on this are MASSIVE, I went and separated them into two journals:

Current Storylines

and

Worldbuilding

You're free to comment and critique on either one (or here), but ultimately this is my setting and what I'm doing for said setting. If you wanna borrow any of these ideas for your setting? That's cool, no need to thank me. Just sharing for the sake of showing you guys a it of what goes on in my head sometimes.

So now we know what stories I'm focusing on nowadays (when time/inspiration allows it), but that doesn't cover what the setting itself is like. Well, if you don't mind me spilling out a lot of brainstorming that is BY NO MEANS COMPLETE and OPEN TO CRITIQUE (to a point), I'm willing to share it. Also note I also include visual design limits, but that for the most part these do not apply to commissioned artwork, just characters I myself make for the setting.

So the following is a set of guidelines and rules I have set up for my own setting. Now why put rules on a setting, you ask? Because setting boundaries helps make a setting take shape. It gives you an idea on what is "the norm" in the setting and what can and can't happen in most situations (which also means that when something happens that breaks a rule, that means something big is happening and should get noticed). So among my ever-evolving personal rules for how things work in the setting(read: you don't have to agree with my design choices just as I have no right to judge you for the design choices for your own stuff) are as follows:




Biology:

- Pokemorphs are for the most part humanoid in shape, wear modern clothing (depending on region) and are usually human-sized, though larger species such as Steelix can go up to 10-12 feet high while smaller ones, like Joltik, can be up to 3 feet high. Shoes are either optional or not an issue, depending on the morph.

- Taurs, for the most part, do not exist with the exception of pokemorphs whose species are naturally multi-legged, like Trevenant and Octillery. Naga-like breeds are also possible for snake-morphs. Birdlike pokemon have wing-hands with rare exceptions.

- Water-type bodies are amphibious to a point (certain species do require a certain degree of hydration to be able to walk on land with ease). There are massive communities of Water-Types that live near-exclusively in underwater communities and only go to the surface for the sake of trading goods and information with the land-based ‘morphs or to visit family and friends who live on the surface.

- Feral Pokemon do exist and can be pets or prey, though they're not used for auxiliary purposes as commonly as they are in the anime or games, what with Pokemorphs being able to do their jobs just as well as they can only more efficiently. The exception is mounts and similar roles.

- There is a very rare, very unusual birth defect called Nyarth's Syndrome that causes a pokemorph to have a mostly to completely feral-like body while still having the mental capacity and speech of a regular pokemorph. Other than being genetic, no one's quite sure how it comes about or how to prevent it. There are several methods to help aid those morphs with Nyarth's Syndrome, from surgeries to robotics, though for the most part the community have been fairly accepting of adapting to their form and even embracing it at times. Some of the world's most esteemed minds have been 'morphs with this condition, in fact.

- Shinies exist, as do pokemon with unusual color schemes (like Pinkan Berry consumers), though for the most part this is restricted to color schemes that have been made canonical via any side games (Ex. Keckleon in the Mystery Dungeon games) or crossovers (Ex. Lucario's alt colors in Smash Bros). Everything else can be chalked up to tattoos, dye-jobs or very talented Smeargles.

- Abilities do exist and everyone can have only one (assuming they have multiples), including Hidden Abilities. How said Ability affects someone depends completely on the individual pokemorph and the Ability itself.

- While it is very possible for a pokemorph to learn every single moveset their species can (canonically) learn, the average non-battling civilian will learn around 8 in their lifetime and master four at most. Those that go to specialized academies and training programs can on average learn about double that. Those that actually take up combat as a career path (be it as a dance battler, a military fighter, a League sports combatant or anything in between) or a not-so-legal career path (pitfighting, assassin, etc.) are the most likely to pull off learning the most moves.

- This is all assuming said pokemorph can even learn that many moves. If they cannot learn any more moves, even by TM/Tutor/Egg move/etc, then they cannot get more. They can learn other forms of self-defense, however, such as martial arts and the use of a blade. Guns exist, but are fairly rare and unpopular They’re most commonly used by police ‘mon (and lowlife criminals) who require a “neutral” form of attacking or simply something stronger/weaker/less stressful to attack with than their own moves.

- Yes, Pokemon can still be strong/weak to other typings, though this only really applies to actual pokemon attacks (Getting hit with Waterfall as opposed to just being under a waterfall). The normal elements can also be harmful if one is overexposed to them, though most ‘morphs are strong enough to not have to worry about such things compared to their feral selves.

- Pokemorphs typically are born naturally able to speak their native "pokespeak" language before they're taught by their parents to speak in their 'Morph language. Sometimes the "pokespeak" leaks out when an individual is excited or scared (or even aroused), which can be seen as cute, childish or both.

- Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, which is especially true in the case of individual pokemorphs. While many have humanlike ideals when it comes to the most attractive species (their own or others), many others look to other things for an ideal date, such as their skills, physical strength, their intelligence, even their scent or how large/small a wing or limb or horn or tail is.

- There are a *select few* species of pokemorphs, mostly Legendaries, that can shift between a 'morph and a more feral form, usually done by those who can travel between dimensions. This is usually kept in secret, hence why there's so little info in regards to it.

- Lifespans depend heavily on species. Most have human-length lifespans and pass away on average at 90-100 years. Some, like certain Bug-types, can live for shorter periods than that, to around 50. Others can live considerably longer, like turtle-based pokemorphs and Ninetails. Legendaries make up for their short birth rates by having the longest lifespans of them all, some going as far as over a thousand years.

- Due to the technology used to create such mutations lost to time, Delta and Shadow pokemon are considered a myth at best and thus do not exist.

- Gijinka are also not a thing, though that goes without saying considering everything else.


History and Culture:

- Not EVERY in-game factoid/Pokedex entry is to be taken seriously...though if any of them make for interesting storytelling in my eyes (like a Pokedex entry that gives off an idea on what a certain pokemon is stereotypically said to be like), that is fair game.

- There WERE humans in the world at one point and it's been universally accepted that these creatures were what created the pokemorphs and shared their cultures with them in the first place. That said, there's as many interpretation to what they were like and what they even looked like ( as there are pokemon, so no one living has any solid proof as to what became of them...and if there is, they're not sharing.

- Pokemorphs have been around for a nearly a millennia now, their growth and development of their civilization echoing our own history, with noticeable differences.

- Locations include all the ones from the main games (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Sevii Islands) as well as some from the anime (Orange Island, Alto Mare, LaRousse City, Alamos Town, Inakano Town, Decolore Island, Brackish Town, Mocha Town, etc) and some from the side games (Orre, Fiore, etc.)

-There have been wars. Some places still have wars, even. Prejudice of all kinds, from class to species to even typing, it exist everywhere still, even if things have improved considerably since the old days when everyone was still getting used to the idea of being pokemon that can walk and talk like humans.

- Cultures are as diverse as the species, as is their language. Due to lack of creativity/laziness, pokemorphs of certain nationalities will mostly be referred to as the "poke-" equivalent of the real world (example, Poke-Italian, Poke-Russian, Poke-Brazilian, etc.).

- Arceus is still one of the most common deities shared among the 'morphs, though not the only one. And how can there be an Arceus (the God) and Arceus (pokemorph)? The morph version are considered "Children Of Arceus" as well as being the rarest breed of all, of which there is exactly one family of them still living somewhere in Sinnoh. It is considered taboo to ever refer to them directly as Arceus- morphs, as the religion usually accepts the multi-armed interpretation as its "true" form, known as The Original One.

-Other known poke-religions includes "The First" (Mew), "The Birds" (Articuno/Zapdos/Moltres), "The Flames" (mostly restricted to Fire-types that live in communities near volcanoes), "The Tides" (used by Water-types that continue to live in the ocean rather than on land) and "The Twin Heroes" (Reshiram/Zekrom), among many others.

- Legendaries are still rare (see 'Reproduction') and thus seen by some as creatures to hold in high regard or to be feared. This is of course mostly done by morphs who are ignorant about Legendaries for whatever reason. Legendaries, barring those like the Children of Arceus forced into high-ranked and/or religious-heavy families, are otherwise no more stronger or weaker than any other pokemorph.

- Superhero Pokemon do exist. In comics, movies, games and TV shows. Anyone trying to be one in the setting's reality is a vigilante and susceptible to getting themselves hurt or worse.


Technology and Economics:

- Technology level at this point in time is similar to modern-day with some considerable advances in health science and robotics, among many others.

- ...yes, there are mecha in this setting, *but* they're not that large and are exclusively for doing labor-intensive work such as for space stations and the like. Attempts to militarize it have been attempted, but there has yet been a war large enough to justify that kind of extra power.

- There is a "internet" and the largest community of Porygon-line 'morphs usually dwell there,. though they have long since perfected the means to transfer their data into that of a physical ’morph form outside of their cyber-homes. Rotom can similarly pull this off, though the logistics behind it is a bit different.

- Transportation is about the same as modern era, with cars and planes and so on. Many ‘morphs, however, are devoted fans of self-propelled travelling, with Fliers, Swimmers and Teleporters being the more abundant ones.

- Pokéballs are still technically a thing, albeit not as an actual item, but as a symbol, one that has been ingrained in the minds of many a pokemorph for centuries, as the actual technology has long since been lost. What said symbol means depends on who you ask: for some, it’s something to be feared, a symbol for entrapment of body and soul. For many others, however, it’s a symbol of unity, tranquility and friendship. The only thing anyone can agree on is that they are from the era of humans and, as such, as much of a mystery as the humans themselves. Similar technologies DO exist for use on inanimate objects, though it's still in its early stages and has yet to be perfected enough to be commercially viable.

- The main currency in most places is the Poke-Dollar, though it's abbreviated to "Poké" by most (as opposed to in the games where they are two separate forms of currency) and uses the same Yen-like symbol as in the games. Similar to the games and the Japanese yen, prices use numerals in the hundreds. There are some more remote areas that use Heart Scales or even trading as their means of exchanging goods and services.

- There are some pokemon-exclusive consumer products in existence, among these being Shock Sticks; half-eCigarette, half-Battery, they’re used to stimulate bored Electric-types. Some even come with “flavors”, like Very Bluk Berry and Tangy Tamato. Surgeon Generals warn that consuming too many of these can cause an Electric-types inner voltage to get erratic, which can lead to uncontrollable electrical bursts.

Reproduction:


- While it´s a common theory that humans (whatever those truly were) were tinvolved in the creation of pokemorphs, the hows and whys have been one of those great mysteries that scientists debate over to this day. It is thought that at one point all morphs were developed from one "core being" as a blueprint for their general design, which partially explains the humanoid shape and in many cases, the humanlike means of reproduction. That said, those genetic modification could only dictate the way future generations of morphs would develop so far. Past a certain point nature still maintained great control, thus their reproductive natures reverted back to its feral-like origins despite going against how evolution truly works in real life. Then again, evolution was always an odd thing in the world of Pokemon. (Also, real talk, I'm not really interested in exploring their sexual nature beyond just this for the time being. I will change my wordings should that ever get changed, but until then...)

- Pokemorphs do not lay eggs with the exception of Pokemorphs whose species makes more sense for that to happen, such as an avian or reptilian-themed one. Eggs may also have significantly design differences depending on the species, though by default they match the ones seen in the anime or games.

-Similarly, Pokemorph genitalia is not universally humanoid in nature, though these usually apply to more alien/non-mammalian species. Reproduction also differs considerably from species to species.

- How breeding even happens and the rituals taken to prepare for it varies by species. A common example would be certain types of Fire-types, such as the Magby-line, setting up an incubator for eggs on an open flame or even submerged in lava.

- Genderless and male pokemorphs still need the aid of a Ditto to breed, which in turn make Dittos an invaluable asset to many a pokemorph, which can and has lead to polarizing issues regarding Dittos as individuals rather than just living tools.

- Nidos of any gender or evolution level can breed just fine, though there is an old wives' tale of sorts that you reach your menopausal state much faster if you evolve into a Nidoqueen too early. Scientists still haven't found much conclusive evidence to back this up, though doctors in general will still warn younger Nidos about it all the same for safety's sake. More on this under 'Evolution'.

- Mythical/Legendaries CAN breed, but for reasons no one has quite been able to decrypt, they tend to have abysmally small birth rates, which explains their general rarity.

- Non-Legendary "Unbreedable" pokemon still cannot breed, as the majority are made up of physically immature/"baby" pokemon. The exception to this are Dittos and Unown, though admittedly their means of reproducing are significantly more alien compared to most others.

- Pokemorphs of incompatible Egg Groups CAN breed but, much like with Legendaries, the birth rate is significantly lower than if the species were compatible. The usual alternative for this aside from adoption is Ditto-assisted artificial insemination.

- While the chances are highest that the offspring will end up the same species as the mother, this is not always the case. Cross-species pregnancy is an uncommon phenomena that has a dangerously high risk of miscarriage or even death to the mother due to the baby not being "made" for that specific womb. Thankfully, most Centers nowadays will have staff of assistants that are well-trained to handle situations like these, which have done wonders to decrease the risk of cross-species pregnancies significantly.

- There is no such thing as true hybrids. Any offspring born from two different species will result in a pokemon of one of those two species (albeit in their pre-evolved forms) with any noteworthy mutations born from said combination being aesthetic at most, such as skin or hair patterns resembling that of their parents, or the offspring acquiring the ability to learn moves they could not before (Egg moves). Behavioral patterns can also resemble that of their other parent's species rather than their own, such as a normally herbivorous pokemon developing a taste for meat because of who their other parent is.

- Ghost-types not only are more than capable of breeding, but it's actually significantly more common to meet Ghost-types who were just born from parents than it is meeting a Ghost-type pokemorph born from the death of their former selves. In these cases, the Ghost-type will have some physical trace of their past self on their persona, though retaining the memory of their past selves and what happened is not common unless there was someone else there during the incident that can provide them with information. It's sadly not too common for "born" Ghost-types to have some level of resentment for "revived" ones due to "revived" ones having something of a reputation of not having the mental state and maturity to cope with the change and essentially being the #1 reason most other 'morphs think their kind as being tragic, chaotic and dangerous.


Sexuality:

- In-game there are Male, Female and Genderless pokemon. This still applies in Pokemorphs, as well as non-binary genders.

- "Genderless", by the way, is not a derogatory term for a non-binary gendered person in this case, but used exclusively to refer to pokemorphs with _no genitalia to speak of_, such as Magnemite or Golurk. While they CAN "breed" with Dittos, the process is a bit more complex as the Ditto is essentially gathering the pokemorph's data to make a imperfect clone of the other pokemorph. The exception is Manaphy, who do have a means for laying Phione eggs, though due to needing a Ditto to breed at all and the fact that every single one has the orifice needed to lay Phione eggs, scientists are unsure what to classify them as and Manaphies themselves typically do not care to *be* classified.

- That said, Genderless pokemon can feel sexual identity issues just as well as a regular non-binary individual would, often in partial thanks to peer pressure from a mostly-gendered society. The norm of many older-generation Genderless is to simply embrace the fact that they are not gendered and thus not burdened by the need to sate their desires for intimate companionship (which is not the same as friendship or even relationship, mind). There are a few younger-generation species that have developed workarounds to this, such as Porygon-line parents installing AI programs that best match how they want their offspring to mentally develop their self-identity, though these tend to be either insufficient or even immoral, which just leads to more debate on the issue.

- "Unbreedables" and Legendaries CAN have genders, which is especially true for the more organic breeds. That said, there ARE a few Legendaries that can still be classified as Genderless, such as Deoxys and the Regis (Genesect is still up to debate. Mewtwo would be as well except I'm pretty sure people would kill me if I did that :P).

- Single sex pokemorphs (Kangaskhan, Gallade, etc): For the most part, they cannot be (biologically speaking) any other sex save for the one assigned to them by species. Self-identifying and cross-dressing among these breeds is not uncommon. Surgical procedures do exist, but it is not the norm at all and a huge health risk as well as a social one due to how uncommon and unreliable the procedure is. Being born opposite your specie's given gender is, while not impossible, extremely rare, with any surviving to adulthood being even rarer due to the mutation usually including many other side-effects that their young bodies have trouble coping with. Pokemorphs with sex-based evolutions being able to evolve to a form whose sex they do not match are also extremely rare to the point of being considered a myth. Mega Evolving to your opposite gender is just plain impossible.


Evolution:

- How evolution is treated depends solely on the family, though for the most part it's considered a moment of celebration, akin to one's birthday or graduation. For those with controllable evolutions (stone evolutions, held items, special circumstances), it's fairly common for a family to set a date and time for a ritual celebration for when one is ready to evolve.

- "Experience"-based evolution is not solely done through battle. That usually happens when one feels a personal growth/maturity that is similar but not *quite* like hitting puberty. There are even those that manage to "will" themselves to evolve, though doctors tend to discourage people from doing so as "forcing it" may cause some unusual side-effects, from unusual aesthetic changes to far more severe issues. Also, above all, doctors are constantly reminding their patients that *evolution is a one-way street* and should not be done on a whim. Even Mega Evolution can have its risks, even if they are arguably lesser ones due to it being temporary.

- The process of evolution can feel either really painful to really pleasant, depending on the individual and circumstances. A forced evolution, for the most part, will always hurt more than something that you let develop on its own. The same principle applies to Mega Evolution.

- There are older families whose species have branching evolutions who take great care for their children to "evolve as they should" for various reasons, such as certain evolutions being rarer than others or simply more well-respected than others. This can lead to a great deal of pressure to the younger generation who are still struggling to adapt to their current forms, let alone the one after, assuming they even want it.

- As stated, some evolutions are more common than others, especially those who evolve with rare and expensive stones or unorthodox means, usually those requiring a second pokemorph for assistance. Mega evolutions are similarly rare due to the rareness of Mega Stones.

- Evolution does NOT mean "maturity". It is very possible for someone to be fully evolved (though this can get more unusual with certain ones, such as "experience"-based evolutions) before they've even left grade school. That said, this is usually frowned upon for many reasons, key of these being that child's inability to learn certain moves they could only develop in their prior form. Similarly, one can reach to full age without ever evolving though, again, this is much more unusual in some breeds than others and can even be problematic at times (for example, "baby" pokemon are unable to reproduce).

- "Formes" are not evolutions and affect pokemorphs the same way they do in-series, with few exceptions (like Deoxys and Meloetta).

More to be added at a later date.




This list is for the many of you who have asked me, in one way or another, "what's the big difference between my personal setting and PCA"? The answer? Well, for the most part, very little, aside from a few name changes and the fact that I DO have some side stories that are outside the schools themselves starring more adult characters. And among these settings are the following:


"Poke-DJ" (character examples: Trebel the Chatot, Skyflower the Shaymin, Voxy the Whismur, etc.): Inspired by the massive electronica concerts set up by the likes of Tiesto, Deadmaus and even non-electronica musicial events like Yanni, the idea is basically trying to visualize what would the Pokemorph equivalent of competitive Contest battles would look like on a massive scale, with dance and music and, yes, the integration of pokemon moves into the mix making for some spectacular performances on a global scale. Ideas for this come in two forms: Showing off the competing DJs doing what they do best as well as showing them to still be individuals with their own aspirations and dreams while the second form would be in the form of showing off the concerts themselves, be it in a nightclub or something grander. Some of you have already witnessed a sample of what I have in mind in these two classic pics of mine.

"Unova Soccer League" (character examples: Pandora the Scolipede, Inka the Sceptile, Victor the Victini): Inspired by the World Cup and Ye Olde Average Sports Movie, as well as a want (at the time of its creation) to do something different with the pokemon from Black/White/Black2/White2. The story of a ragtag bunch of wannabee soccer pros being led by Victor, a literal diamond in the rough, as despite being a Legendary, his home life left a lot to be desired. When Pandora finally discovered the young prodigy, it was he who sparked hope into her heart that her little team from Castelia might have a chance to make it to the top. Of course, she knows very well a mere young Legendary's not going to be enough to make it to the big leagues, so they're going to have to work their tails off if they ever want to have a chance against the other teams, including the long-time champions from Hoenn...

"AIRLOCK'D, aka the Underground Pitfighting Setting" (character examples: Anji the Mawile, Long the Pikachu): So funny thing. The very reason I ever started up my idea to draw pokemorphs to begin with came about with one simple question: "If Pokemon had humanlike bodies, what would they look like fighting? And if they had the sense of reasoning as a human as well, WHY do they fight?" And one of my earliest explanations for how Pokemorphs even came to be was from scientists, both good and those alligned from Team Rocket, were picking out the DNA from some of the most powerful and well-known trainer-owned Pokemon in existence to create their super-soldier pokemon (fun fact: Meghan herself started life as a pokemorph born from the DNA of Gym Leader Blaine's Magmar, while Long himself has the DNA of the most powerful pokemon of them all: Ash's Pikachu). Now while I've long since moved on with the PCA-born idea that humans have not been around for a very, very long time and thus pokemorphs are pretty much left to their own devices, I still like to play with the idea that old instincts don't just die that easily, especially the instinct to fight other pokemon. Which is where AIRLOCK'D comes from; AIRLOCK'D is the name of a nightclub (with an obvious Rayquaza theme, perhaps even owner?) that holds a secret: late at night, after its normal patrons leave, it opens up its underground basements to allow for illegal pitfights for pokemorphs who think they got what it takes to beat some of the strongest pokemorphs around without things like "rules" and "moral decency" getting in the way like they would in properly-sanctioned leagues. There have even been cases of actual League-level fighters who use pitifighting rings like the ones in AIRLOCK'D to hone their skills while also making some extra cash. There are many of these types of rings all around the world, though the AIRLOCK'D nightclub in Hoenn is especially noteworthy due to its love for flashy fighters, of which Anji is but one of its more popular examples of this.

"Kalos Café" (character exampls: Jicky the Spritzee, Gustave the Furfrou): This one is, obviously, the newest of the bunch, with a simple enough setup: Jicky the Spritzee is the owner of Café Fée, a tiny little hole-in-the-wall coffee shop in Lumiose City. Like many Spritzee, Jicky fancies lovely aromas, with freshly-ground coffee being Jicky's most beloved aroma of them all. The story here would be a significantly more relaxing, slice-of-life tale of Jicky's life and the many people that come to visit her cafe.

Then there's the still-not-actually-named School/College setting itself that includes most of my old PCA alumni, as well as a couple of new faces here and there whenever an idea strikes. This and the side-stories technically exist in the same overall "setting", though typically not in the same locations or even timelines, so characters from each "plot" have little chances to meet save for special events or secondhand, like a student character being a fan of a Poke-DJ or something.

More will be added as time goes on.

Male Goodra. Female Machamp. Male Gothielle. Female Conkeldurr. Male Lopunny. Female Hariyama.

The list goes on and even expands, moreso when we include single-sex and genderless in the mix. What stereotypes have you seen out there? Which ones are you ok with but see very little of, in terms of fan-content? Which ones are you not so ok with and wish people would bring it down a notch? Note that Actual Pokemon Gender Ratios hardly, if ever, actually match people's perceptions of what should/should not be a certain gender.

And that's just gender stereotypes. What stereotypes do you often see that are associated with certain species or even typings? Like before, which ones do you want to see more or less of?

And of course, if any of you are curious as to my opinions on anything regarding this topic, feel free to ask. Fair warning, if my past drawings aren't a dead giveaway, I'm rather *opinionated* on this issue.

...oh and lest I forget, pet's keep this civil, please. We are talking about cartoon monster things, after all. Never forget that.

So while I already showed off that new game promo, I was recently brought to attention on this thing:





(notice how some of the pokemon choices match those seen in Pokkén Fighter...mere coincidence?)

I have no words. Only envy. Envy for Japan. And maybe hope for a WiiU port (despite my current lack of a WiiU).

(X-posted from kompy. yes, it's a repost, because I just realized I was giving the wrong impression with the original title)

I actually made a post similar to this a while back and while I did get some feedback from folks, in light of some recent trends I've been seeing lately around FA, I want to bring this up again.

Why am I not making a Patreon? The reasons are as follows:

1) I legit do not know what I could offer as a good incentive to get people to help me. Personalized doodles and commission discounts are a possibility, though things like "private streams" and "Patreon-only full-color images" don't sit well for me, as I like offering those for free (if at a lower resolution at times, depending) whenever I can. The only time I'd make a full illustration private is if it's a private commission for someone, which I'd do regardless of having Patreon or not.

2) I'd similarly would not know what Goals to put up, either. The only, *only* thing I'd want to get funded right now would be a new laptop so I can be do more art hassle-free, but I'm still unsure about asking people to help me with that until I can settle on a proper pricetag/model that I can actually aim for. Also if worst comes to worse, I could use a not-GoFundMe (do not want to use GoFundMe itself due to personal reasons) type crowdsourcing site for that, but that'd still give me issue #1. Suggestions for this, by the way, are more than welcome.

3) I am legitimately scared of ignorant fools telling me stuff like how I am trying to scam people into "paying" for "free art". I'm barely in the mood to explain why they're being heartless now, I'll certainly won't be in a better mood when/if I set up a Patreon account and I get people like these knocking at my door. If you can't understand why anyone would want to sponsor an artist to do what artists do best while also having their financial woes lessened, I have no faith in you.

4) I do want to eventually find an actual job in my field in Graphic Design. Right now I've done the occasional freelance job, but that's hardly enough. I want to be able to actually keep myself financially stable enough so that I don't go choking my family's wallets dry for a change and should I manage to get that while also maintaining a Patreon, I might have trouble balancing both. Mind, there's probably a solution to this I'm not seeing, bu there'd still be the other parts of the list to worry about.

That's about it. I personally don't support anyone's Patreons at the moment, but that's mostly because I literally *can't* right now due to reasons posted above. I'd love to someday, of course, but until then...

If I'm posting here, of course I mean Pokemon and pokemorph-wise :P

So I got a lot, and I do mean A LOT of stuff I want to someday draw out based off either my poke-characters or poke-worldsettings but am rather weird about picking out ones to put emphasis in. Note this is more me talking about personal stuff rather than commissions (those will be drawn as soon as I am able to, after all), though some if this might well inspire future commission ideas, depending.

So anyway, I've marked down a list of what I want to eventually draw out and I'd like it if you guys could maybe help me out with ideas? The winning votes will be the ones I'll see about drawing out next.

Poll (pick UP TO TWO and, if possible, explain why you'd like to see this. If applicable, feel free to also mention the name of a character you want to see more of that relates to what you voted for):

1) More on Poke-DJ setting (character examples: Trebel the Chatot, Skyflower the Shaymin, Voxy the Whismur, etc.)

2) More on soccer setting (character examples: Pandora the Scolipede, Inka the Sceptile, Victor the Victini)

3) More on nightclub underground pitfight setting (character example: Anji the Mawile, Long the Pikachu)

4) More on Kalos Cafe setting (character example: Jicky the Spritzee, Gustave the Furfrou)

5) More of ...whatever setting the Teams are in now that they have graduated (Team Crossroads, Team Bistro, etc). Would also include characters that are technically still in school/college.

6) More individual art about secondary/lesser-drawn characters (Fitz, Lockjaw, Atum, etc.)

7) More about character's families (Nigel's, Myra's, whoever.)

8) Super-old characters that you think should/could get redrawn or even re-designed

9) Random pokemorph design experimentation

10) More "joke" images including my characters (meme homages, game references, etc. Suggestions welcome)

11) Actual feral pokemon/pokemorph characters as ferals

12) *sigh* sexy pinups of any of my characters

13) OTHER; something not listed here (please specify what)



Thanks for the help! By the way,I have a poll like this for my Original Characters (and non-Pokemon fanart), too!

(X-posted from kompy, of course. Also super-tiny reminder that I still have some adoptables for sale HERE and HERE and am still waiting on more people to join in to work on the NSFW Sharknado collab. That is all.)


So before I get started, let me slap down a few links as a reminder for you guys:

The link to the palette list I am doing and the forever up-to-date list of everything I have drawn up so far? HERE.

The Frequently Asked Questions (which you are free to comment on if there is a question about this you want answered)? HERE.

The actual journal for requesting a freebie or commission on the list (as well as a queue list of sorts to see what's been asked for already/which one I am drawing next)? HERE.

Now as you might have seen on the checklist, I'm practically halfway there, which is awesome to the max! Thanks everyone who has helped me out in making this thing happen, I can't thank you enough!

Won't lie, I haven't felt so *good* about doing art in a very very very long time and these Palettes are part of the reason why. Shoutout to FallenZephyr for having assembled the palette to begin with! I really should thank her properly after I finish this challenge...

Couple of things. If you guys see I am a bit slow at times with the Palettes, DON'T PANIC! I have slow days at times, is all. Also, some characters are significantly more challenging for me than others, so those will end up taking a bit longer to finish. hat said, don't back down on challenging me! So long as you give me good visual refs to work with or it's something that I can find good refs for easily enough, I WILL draw it! The only thing I will not draw for the Palettes is NSFW stuff and characters I have to design from scratch for you. Save the latter ones for regular commissions, please.

Like I have also said before I am not stopping this art train until every palette gets a drawn version. Also, as noted above, I am going by a First Come, First Serve format for doing each one with absolutely NO SKIPPING unless the person who is up next has not paid yet. In that case, I give them a X amount of time to pay up their spot and if they do not deliver, I revoke their palette and skip to the next person.

Also, one last thing. When asking for a freebie(art of my characters) or a commission(art of things that are not my characters), palette numbers are IMPORTANT! I CANNOT work without one, as that's kind of missing the point. I will also not:

-Pick a palette color for you
-Draw you a pic with a palette or character that has already been drawn for the challenge (in the case of characters, I might concede to drawing them again in another form if said form if significantly different enough for my needs)
-Accept you changing your mind from your initial number choice unless said number is taken. Once you sign up for a number, that is it. Remember you ARE allowed to look at the official palette list for ideas if you are a stickler to wanting a character in a particular range of colors. Otherwise, just pick a number you like at random so we'll both be surprised.

Also worth noting I don't actually look at said palette colors until I actually start working on a pic. I also do the drawings themselves exclusively on Paint Tool SAI, with Photoshop only used for editing and adding text and the like.

So yeah. Any comments you wish to do, feel free to make them. Questions, of course, go in the FAQ.


...man, that's a lot of links X_X;

(X-posted rom kompy)

So as noted, I will most likely not be available on Thursday for one very important detail.

I'm...going to be graduating from uni that day, Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design.

Miiiight have a pic ready to celebrate the occasion, but aside from that, well, I will be scarce that day.

Apologies for slowdown on Palettes, by the way. Still doing them, just some are more challenging than others and that prolongs things. Still going, though!

The Sharknado Collab is still a thing as well, we just need some more sharks(no pokemon, sorry) to throw into the frey. Click here for more.

As for regular commissions, they are also a thing that are happening. I am open to one right now. For my prices, go to my Commission Info.

That is all.

First part is brand new, the commission part is spama reminder for those that missed my last journal on the subject.

I recently moved some older art from my kompy account to here, which includes updated information on them. Specifically, Team Bistro is up now with new info:

Lilly the Lickilicky(Leader)
Michiel the Delibird
Myra the Skuntank
Angelo the Farfetch'd

I also went and updated the info on Team Crossroads as well, so check that out when you can:

Meghan DeCinder(Leader)
Floritt Baez
Charla Rey
Nigel Sana Garkirl

I still have new Adoptables available, these based off some ancient artwork from back in my virtual pet site days. For more on these, go here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14249854/

The 100 Color Palette Iron Artist Challenge is still going! Half the slots are already drawn or ready to be drawn, but believe me when I say that I could totally use more mini-commissions(how mini? Try Pay-What-You-Want mini, with a 5 buck minimum!) or free requests for art of my characters. If for whatever reason you can't participate, I'll still appreciate you spreading the word as well! Oh, by the way, I recently went and added some extra commentary on all the Palette pics done so far, so feel free to give those a read if any pic in particular had you curious about things (oh want a way to kill time).

In honor of the latest Sharnado movie and it being Shark Week and all, I have teamed up with  asuraludu to offer up an Adults-Only YCH commission, where he sketches the characters and I ink and color them. Have a naughty shark character or a character you would not mind turning into a naughty shark? Want in on this whirlwind of lust? Then click here for more!

And what about Ye Olde regular commissions? Yeah, I got room for one of these. Just check my Commission Info and note me if you are interested :)

Hey, folks? Weird question time.

I Just got told recently someone would commission artwork from me of clothes for their characters.

Which made me ask myself, really? I'm that ok at clothing them? This is honestly something I never really gave much thought about before, especially since my deep dark secret is just "Google up images online, alter as need be, draw". But apparently I must be doing SOMETHING right!

Which leads me to me next question. If I were to later on, say, offer up a commission offer of dressing your characters up (using word prompts from you for ideas), would you guys be interested? Mind, this will be once I'm a bit more caught up with my current backlog of Palette Challenges (STILL GOING, by the way!) and the like, plus I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on the concept beforehand.

Weird idea or no?

MY ART MOJO IS ACTING WEIRD TODAY, GUYS

I CAN'T DRAW COMMISSIONS TODAY, ALL I WANT TO DRAW IS ART THAT MAKES ME HAPPY

I *PROMISE* I WILL GET BACK TO WORK ON OWED ART TOMORROW AND SO ON

BUT I REALLY DOUBT I CAN DO THEM TODAY

I CAN'T EVEN

SEND HELP

ALSO SOMETIMES I DRAW POKE-PORN NOW, I DON'T KNOWWWWW?

(X-posts, yaay! And while not everything mentioned here is Pokemon-related, some of it is, so, hey there is that!)

Some old, some new, but still relevant!

The first bit of news is I have new Adoptables available, these based off some ancient artwork from back in my virtual pet site days. For more on these, go here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14249854/

F5 Time, yo!

Ayup, brand new icon, courtesy of  tartii/ tartiimons! The larger pic you can go fave over here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14239695/


And for those who miss the old icon made by  hologram, though, will be happy to know I uploaded the larger file over in my Scraps, specifically here. Though I encourage you to go fave or watch the artist's stuff, since they deserve the credit for this! (they sadly no longer have the pic itself uploaded)

That's about it for now, Back to doing whatever it is I do.

Because this is the Pokemon account and I need to do more poke-talk in it.

So in no specific order:

1) The concept of Megas has grown on me, especially since I see them more from an artist's perspective and consider them an interesting challenge to draw, be they feral or anthro.

2) That said, I want more excuses to draw Megas (like for my 100 Palettes Challenge perhaps, hint hint?).

3) Just like I have a hard time nowadays thinking up Pokemon I like the most/least, the same applies to Mega pokemon. If anything, I just mentally rate the challenge level in drawing any of them, be it in furry or (especially) anthro form).

4) I have yet to train a Mega-evolving pokemon for my main game; I didn't play around with the concept until post-game in Y. I might do so in Alpha Ruby, though. Current candidates are Mega Sceptile, Mega Mawile and maybe raise that shiny Beldum you get in OR/AS so I can have Mega Metagross, though that depends on if you get it during the main game or post-game.

5) Am I the only one who *doesn't* think Mega Lopunny is all that sexualized compared to the original? True it has those leg patterns and all, but I just see a gymnast. And while I won't deny that a gymnast can be very sexy, that doesn't really mean it's sexual, you know? I similarly don't see it being any more feminine than regular Lopunny, either. This shouldn't surprise most of you, though, as I have a extreme fondness for pokemon that break typical human stereotypes (I'd go into more detail on that in a later journal if I knew anyone cared what I thought on that).

6) I recently got myself a Mega Stone pendant in real life from Trinketgeek, specifically the Aerodactylite-colored one.

7) That reminds me, should draw Mega Wynn sometime, as well as several other of my own characters who now have Mega forms. Which reminds me...

8) DEAR NINTENDO, GIVE ME MEGA LUXRAY, PLEASE. WANNA DRAW CHARLA AS ONE SO BAD. THROW IN SOME FOR FARFETCH'D, SKUNTANK, CRESSELIA AND CHATOT WHILE WE'RE AT IT.

9) Because I know someone will say it: Yes I WOULD draw CeeGee as a Mega if her species got one, along with her as Porygon2 and PorygonZ. I actually HAVE drawn these already long ago (Minus the Mega of course), they just never got scanned. Because they weren't good sketches and also because I am lazy :P

10) I'm going to make this clear: I am *never* going to draw any fanmade Megas, either my own or others. Why? Because if I draw a Mega and that pokemon ends up getting a real Mega down the line, either I'll lament how bad mine is compared to the real deal OR I will dislike the real one to an uncertain degree while lamenting the "loss" of my beautiful creation. Frankly, I don't need that kind of stress in my life, I have other dumb things to stress over already :P
