Today is my 33rd birthday!

...too bad I'll be spending it working all day, but such is life.

Heya guys, been a while but I've been kinda busy with work these past few weeks so I haven't been able to get to this.

So, I'll cut to the chase.

With the Ultra Beasts being able to be caught an infinite number of times, I was curious if someone was willing to trade with me.

I need only one UB: Buzzwole. All I require is that its Nature is ADAMANT as I do plan on using it in online battles at some point.

I'm willing to trade a Pheromosa or an Own Tempo Rockruff I breed myself in return.

If anyone is interested, please let me know.

Yep.

As of this journal, I'm only past the first trial and I do not have any of my mons from Moon or Omega Ruby transferred over yet.

So, if you fine me in the Festival Plaza, make sure to VIP me.

I decided to see what I could improve over my last comic so here's a teaser.

I will say I'm no good with SFX still so bear with the crudeness until I can do them better.

Keep the negativity to yourselves or get blocked.

So, we're one month away from Ultra Sun and Moon coming out and they just dropped quite a lot of info this time.

First off, we got a new UB in UB Adhesive. It's Poison type and kinda cute to boot!

Next, we got the typing for UB Burst and Assembly. Burst is Fire and Ghost with a move called Mind Blown. Assembly is Rock and Steel, but it has no exclusive move. As far as Burst and Assembly go, I was right on Fire with Burst, but wrong on Ghost (I was thinking Fairy, but you know... Gen 7 is its typing curveballs.) Assembly, Rock and Steel were the only things that came to mind for me so this if fine. Naturally, people are salty becuase they thought Bust HAD to be Fairy and Assembly HAD to be Ghost or Psychic, but what can you do?

Next, we can EXPLORE Ultra Space! Riding on Solgaleo and Lunala and being able to explore more of Ultra Space is pretty cool. Looks like Ultra Space isn't as dreary as once thought, it's actually a pretty interesting place.

Next, we find out who those people in the promo art are. They are called the Ultra Recon Squad and they LIVE in Ultra Space. It seems they are tracking down Necrozma as it seems it was responsible for robbing their world of light. Also, they have reside in a city called Ultra Megalopolis, which looks pretty cool.

All in all, even though we got less news about this than Sun and Moon, it's still shaping up to be a very different experience. I, for one, am pretty hype for this.

So, I've been mulling over what to do about a sequel to Tongue Tied.

And, no, I have not started as I have some things I need to take care of before I do anything, however, I do have the sequel's story in mind and it will take place shortly after the first.

As for what I plan to have in it?

Well, Lucario got to be on top last time, but this time Greninja will return the favor.

I'm also willing to put a little more effort into this one too and try to bump the quality up a bit.

No negativity in the comments, unless you want to get blocked.

Well, finally got some new Ultra Sun and Moon news today.

It was revealed today on the Japanese show Pokénchi, Shogeru Ohmori showed off some Ultra Sun and Moon gameplay and revealed that Lycanroc is indeed getting a 3rd form.

Its confirmed name is the Dusk form. As you see, it's a hybrid of both forms.

This was actually teased a few days ago in the preview for the next episode of the anime (for those who don't watch, Ash has a Rockfuff). I assume, this was to show it off before the ep. aired.

Needless to say, it's a subtle form, but I like it.

This does beg the question, Lycanroc and Mimikyu were both shown in the original trailer back in June. This could possibly mean, Mimikyu may get a new form as well.

Anyway, still stoked for Ultra Sun and Moon and looking forward to what else is in store.

Heya guys.

Got kind of a request to see if anyone is able to help me with a trade.

I've been looking to get a Kartana for my team in Moon.

I'm curious if anyone is up to trade with me.

The only prerequisite is that it HAS to be Jolly nature. That's all I ask.

I'm willing to trade one of my Pheromosa that I have in return. So, if you don't have on for your Sun game, then I can help with that.

Hey guys and gals.

First off I want to thank everyone who enjoyed Tongue Tied. Never thought I'd ever do a comic again (let alone one that was decent), but thanks to some encouragement, I was able to finish it (and in a reasonable period of time).

Now, that begs the question: What will I do next?

Well, I actually have an idea for the next comic.

It won't be a sequel per-see, but more like something still involving Lucario and Greninja and their sexual shenanigans.

The idea is I'm throwing a new player into the mix.

A Decidueye.

A FEMALE Decidueye.

Now, I've gotten some ideas on how I want to set it up and how it'll go, but I'm still very much into the planning phase and work is VERY far off as I want to don't want to rush into this when I just got done with my last comic.

Still, this is what I have in mind and I'm curious as to what you think.

Can't believe it's almost over now.

In 2 pages, my comic will at last be complete. Hard to believe I started this back in September just sketching out the pages, but now I am on the cusp of completion.

Now, the million dollar question will now be, what next?

Well, I plan on drawing some more stuff and posting some stuff I have on my Pixiv here.

Also, as for how I've been using CSP a lot more now to shade and color.

THIS is what I'm able to make now! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C3y7zYuWAAA1kQR.png

So, expect a minor quality spike in my work.

If any of you guys have Pokemon Sun, would you be willing to help me out with this.

Read this to get the gist-> http://serebii.net/sunmoon/altworld.shtml

Long story, short I have Cosmoem and I want to level it up to within one level of evolving. I want to trade it to someone with Sun who can evolve it into Solgaleo and trade it back to me.

Of course, if you need a Lunala, then I can help you with that as well since we can trade Cosmoems.

The best thing for us to do is simply have a spare Rare Candy so we won't need to grind.

Of course, if you are even AT that point in the game, let me know and I will see if we can't arrange something.

Hey guys, got a question for you all.

I'm going after the legendary mons and the UB in Moon but I need some Synchronize Abras for the job.

All I'm needing is Jolly and Timid.

Levels don't matter, all I need is those two natures.

I don't have much to give in return right now, but if you're doing the same as me, I may be able to help.

Yes! I now have Pokemon Moon!

So... it seems that people have been able to crack Pokemon Sun and Moon and actually be able to play it.

One FUCKING week early.

And, as you'd expect, people are leaking EVERYTHING!

Story, music, stats, the who nine fucking yards!

Now, I spoiled myself on seeing the entire 7th Gen. dex being leaked (and for those wondering, yes, what was leaked from the demo is all the new mons we are getting this gen so don't complain), but I will NOT spoil myself on the story of this game, I refuse.

Now, I HAVE seen the stats of all the mons and their HAs. A lot of people will be disappointed in some way or form so... yeah.

But, I have to say, that I cannot believe this happened. One week and people are trying to ruin the hype for us all.

Good god...

So, as I am now well over 10 pages into my comic, I'm curious as to what you all think of it so far.

Good, kind good, meh, or anything in between.

I still have a ways to go before I am done (it IS a 31 page comic after all), but I hope it has been an enjoyable experience to you all so far.

Doing this comic has been taxing on me (what with working and finding free time to work on it) but I still am able to crank pages out for you all because it's you all who I am doing this for (not just myself mind you). Not for money, not for popularity, just for the people who love my art and have been wanting to see something like this from me.

http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=20472701

Yeah, I took the plunge.

I have some temporary exclusive art there (I say exclusive because I don't wanna disrupt the flow of my comic here right now).

So, if any of you have a Pixiv, gimmie a shout.

...also, it would help if I knew how to properly tag things in Japanese.

I have no words for this...

I have a unique question to pose.

How hard would it be to have my comic translated from English to Japanese?

I ask because a certain someone was curious if I would do that once I got it finished.

Here's the thing. I have no "clean" version of the pages (pages with no text bubbles, text, or SFX) and no higher resolution images than what I have.

So... would this be hard to do?

Well dataminers... you win.

If you don't want to be spoiled do yourself a favor. STAY OFF SOCIAL MEDIA and DO NOT CLICK THE LINK!

Seriously, the whole dex is getting leaked as I speak.

Have fun~

Okay, I may as well get this out of the way since I started the comic officially now,

I plan to release the pages out as soon as I can get them done. I may release a few at a time if some of the pages don't take very long to do.

I don't have any higher resolution versions of the pages, so sorry if anyone was thinking I'd have exclusive content elsewhere.

I will work on this as my schedule permits me to. So, if I go a brief period with no pages, don't worry.

I intend to finish this comic and I promise NOT to keep you all waiting on it for too long. My goal is to finish it by the end of the year.

And, yes, the obvious thing, this comic is FREE. I'm not making money off of this, I feel the gratification of doing this and your response payment enough.

Yes! I finally finished the sketching process of the comic!

31 pages total.

Now comes the "fun" part. I have to line, color, and add effects to the picture now as well as add dialogue.

Hoo boy... fun times ahead indeed.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ct97fYLXYAE7btg.jpg

So... what do you all think?

What is phase 1 you ask?

Simple.

I have nearly finished sketching out the pages of my comic. I'm currently at 27 pages and I have about 3 more pages left to do before the sketching phase is done.

Afterwards, I may go back and revise a few pages and maybe redraw a panel or two.

After that... well comes the "fun" part. Yeah, need to line and color the pages and then add the effects and dialogue to them.

I figured once I get a few pages finished, I'll start to upload the comic here on FA. It'll take me some time, but I know you all are a patient bunch.

Also, I'm gonna go ahead and say it just cuz I can. The comic is FREE, I'm not going to charge a single penny for you all to see it. Also, I won't have any higher resolution versions of this since I STILL use paint for my linework and I know none of you want to see that pixelated lineart.

Anyways, just wanted to give you all an update on the comic's progress. If you wanna see what it's looking like then go check it out on my Twitter. You can find all the WIP pages, but do note some may have changed as I revised a few after posting them.

As I near finishing up sketching the comic pages, I still have not come up with a title for it.

So... I'm open to suggestions by you all.

So, how is this looking so far? This is a test page I did to kind of test the waters on how the comic will look.

Naturally, I still need to add effects like line as well as text and SFX.

But, what do you all think of it so far.

Also, what IS the proper font to use for manga and comics in general called?
